    E30 camp kitchen remodel

    I haven't been on the forums very much lately, but this coming week (+2 weekends) to remodel our camp kitchen. No don't get me wrong, we like the space, but after lifting the trailer (larger tires and 2" correct track) my wife cannot even reach the sink without a stool. Therefore it has gotten...

    Any Recommendations around Cleveland, OH?

    I found a few older posts about a good Camp Ground/RV Park near Cleveland but none had follow-ups with the choices and how they turned out. In our cross country adventures this coming October I will be spending 4 nights somewhere near Cleveland so that I can visit the Cleveland office and attend...

    My 15 - 16 inch wheel/tire upgrade

    There have been a few questions from other owners with 15" wheels as to what upgrade is possible. I will post about my upgrade and provide as much detail that I found along the way. This is just my viewpoint, and not general rule of thumb. So I was unhappy with the fact that my new Extreme Light...

    Why wouldn't you balance trailer tires???

    I have been to 3 different tire shops this past week doing price comparisons, and each one never included balancing in their quotes, when I asked for them to do balancing they each gave me similarly dumb looks and said that they never balance trailer tires. WTH, why not? I would assume that 4...

    Flow through or not?

    We are getting ready for a cross country trip and already in the process of swapping out the blowmax tires for Bridgestone's, and am about to get a tst 507 tons. It looks like I'm finding better prices for the flow through, and assume that adding air is a lot easier with a flow through sensor...

    Can you use the slide room when it's in?

    We are planning a long distance trip and at least a few nights we are planning to stay at either a truck stop or Wal-Mart to just sleep. Most "courteous" thing in those situations would be to not put the slide out, but could we still for example use the dinette, for breakfast? I have read...

    no tire war, rib "summer tire" in all (poor) weather conditions?

    All, I know from researching this topic that these threads sometimes produce differing opinions, and we all have to make the choices that we feel are right for each of us. I have had multiple trailers in the 10-12K range (our new Elkridge is under 12K GVWR with D rated towmax) and even with...

    We're now owners... 2015 Elkridge Extreme Light E30

    Most of my posting about my own stuff has been in the Prospective Owners section, but since we signed the paperwork on Tuesday I guess we own it now, lol... :cool: We purchased the 2015 Elkridge Extreme Light E30, from a dealer that was about 100 miles away who happened to have it on the lot...

    Adding an outlet to the U-shaped dinette

    I work from home and as such I will be working form the e30 quite often and was planning on using the dinette for my desk while working and the rounded corner seats are quite comfortable for sitting a while. However, the Heartland, or at least ours, don't seem to have outlets in the center...

    MOR/Ryde or Trailair pin box?

    We are in the middle of making the deal for a new ElkRidge E30, literally just got of the phone with the salesman. The total weight of the E30 is light compared to a lot of you guys, but we will have small children (1yro and 5yro) in the truck when hauling and I was looking to have them throw...

    Considering the Elkridge Express E30

    This seems to the the largest (well that my wife is comfortable with), of the lighter (sub 10K # dry), 5th wheels with most of the features we are looking for. We are looking for a bunk house, or at least a couple bunk beds for our 2 young kids and sometimes friends. We really like the separate...
