    RE: the oven. Those that say to put a tile or pizza stone in the oven are spot-on. I have checked the oven with a thermometer and it's pretty spot-on. That being said, there is a hot spot in there and I burned stuff in there till I put the stone in it to even out the heat. Bakes really good...

    Cyclone oven question

    Mine doesn't have a fan, so no problem keeping the pilot lit. Mine bakes MUCH better since I added the stone. I had been complaining VERY vocally about how much I absolutely hated that oven, and how can anyone bake in it, blah, blah, blah..............my hubby said "well, you know, most...

    Cyclone oven question

    Stone above burner diffusing more even heat was my thinking. The below burner question got me wondering. Glad I made the right decision. Actually, putting it below the burner never entered my mind. Since putting the stone in, I had a "baking morning", making chocolate chip cookies (didn't...

    Cyclone oven question

    I FINALLY went and bought a baking stone/tile for my oven. My question is.................for those of you that have done that, where do you put the tile? Do you put it on the bottom of the oven, which would locate it UNDER the burner? Or do you put it on the metal "cover" that is ABOVE the...

    ATF: Cyclone - 4200 Toy Hauler Kitchen slide-out

    This afternoon I supported the rear of the slide-out with a block to take pressure off of the rail and straightened and reinforced the bracket. After pushing the slide-out back in so I could bolt the brackets back together I had the wife run the slide-out in a little bit at a time to make sure...

    ATF: Cyclone - 4200 Toy Hauler Kitchen slide-out

    After closing the kitchen slide-out after our last outing I noticed that the bottom rear of the slide-out didn't close tight against the side of the RV. After counting the teeth on the rails from the end of the rail into the drive sprockets the count on the rear rail has 2 more teeth between...

    Spare tire info needed

    Due to horribly rough roads in Illinois and Indiana, we discovered when we got home from our last jaunt that we lost the spare tire that was mounted under our 4200 Cyclone. I can probably get a rim from a local machine shop that makes trailers, sells hitches, etc. Does anyone know the normal...

    SOLVED: Cyclone - Replacement basement key

    My Cyclone basement key broke; luckily it was NOT in the lock at the time, just bent. It broke after I took it out and tried to straighten it. I tried to get a replacement key made at our local hardware store and they said they cannot make ANY kind of RV replacement key, they are a special...

    Nashville area

    We stayed at Follow The River resort last August and went to The Ark Encounter and The Creation Museum. The Ark Encounter is a must-see. In fact, we're going back again next month when we go down for the Kentucky race. We'll stay at Follow The River again. Very nice RV park plus only about...

    Sofa cover for 4200

    We are probably going to take our kitties with us when we winter in Texas for the winter of 2018-19. If anyone travels with their cats, what kind of a cover do you put over your sofa for protection? I've found a couple on Amazon, but since our end 2 "chairs" and the middle one recline, that...

    Traveling w/ cats

    Don't belong to Costco, but this might be worth the $75 membership! I will have to check it out. - - - Updated - - - Jeez, I just went and checked Costco Travel................a little over a grand to rent one for a one-way. We could fly home twice for that. LOL

    Traveling w/ cats

    If things go as planned, we will be Winter Texans for next winter. Our "problems" are our 3 felines. Well, we have 4, but old "Kitty" won't see another winter, I don't think. We have a site rented from Dec. 1st, 2018 till March 31, 2019. We would like to come home for Christmas. (we live...

    Hi there. We are from Wisconsin and new members. We are currently in the RGV scouting out possible parks to overwinter in mext winter. If we are still in the area, could we stop in and visit for a bit? Get some ideas? We are not sure just where we will be, but wanted to find out if it was...

    Toys and Winches

    After loading our 2 Harleys in the back of our 4200 Cyclone for one summer, I told my son "I may sound like a wuss, but you know, one of these days I'm gonna dump one of these loading them." His reply "yup, probably". With the patio door swung open in the back, it makes it a pretty tight fit...

    Trouble connecting a sound bar

    We just purchased a Polk sound bar to put on the living room TV in our Cyclone. WE cannot seem to get it to work. We thought there might be something faulty with the sound bar itself, so took it to the house and connected it to our Toshiba. Works fine. We decided to try and swap them out, so...

    2009 3950 storage cover

    They must have raised their prices; ours was right around $1,000.00. I KNOW it wasn't $1300.00.

    Insurance Totalling 2013 300C ti

    The queen bed would have been a deal-breaker for us. We have plenty of room in our bedroom to dress with a king bed in there. Well, not a ball gown with a hoop skirt, but "regular" clothing doesn't seem to cramp the dressing area style. Ours is the 44 foot toy hauler.

    2009 3950 storage cover

    We couldn't find a cover to fit our 2015 4200. I found out that the ADCO company would make us a custom cover. They sent a measuring sheet and we had to measure the distances between the air conditioners. If I remember correctly, there were some other measurements we had to take and write...

    Tire rotation on Tri-Axle Cyclone

    I replaced the TowMax tires with Goodyears last spring. Axles were realigned by the dealer with the motorcycles in the garage portion last spring when the tires were replaced. The bearings will be repacked this spring. Since the wheels will be off do any of you rotate the tires? If so...

    ATF: Cyclone - Backsplash behind stove

    I was wondering if it is possible to purchase some of the same "material" that is used on the wall behind the stove burners. I'd like to extend that along the wall under the cupboards and cannot find anything in any of the Big Box stores that would look decent with that particular pattern...

    Washers and Dryers

    The comments on the appliance sites were people saying about using cold water. No mention was made of using warm/hot. I was just wondering about it. If/when the time comes that we can spend 3 or 4 months away from this cold, using only cold water in a washer (if we'd get one) would be a...

    Washers and Dryers

    From what I have been reading about washers for RVs, it seems like with the ones mentioned here or the portable ones, they say to use cold water??? Is that true? I have not and never will be a fan of cold water washing of clothes. My appliance man told me to never use cold water for washing...

    Cyclone 4250 King bedroom mattress

    Greybeard, we changed our mattress out for a decent one and I know from what you speak when you say it is "tight". An understatement for sure. I couldn't believe what the "mattress" was made of that came with our Cyclone. It was just 3 foam pads with a covering. LOL. I took 2 of the pads...

    Oven Pilot light question

    Can I leave the pilot light lit in the oven after I've used it the first time when we're parked for our camping stay or is this not a smart thing to do? I've never had a gas stove/oven so really don't know the proper protocol for use. I don't use it that much, so re-lighting is not a big...

    2008 Cyclone 4012 - hasty buy; regrets?

    We have the Biker Bars for our motorcycles. They work great, but I still tie the bikes down. I also installed a winch to get the bikes up the ramp. I told my son that I knew he figured I was a wuss, but I knew it would be a matter of time that the unthinkable would happen and I'd lose one of...
