    De-winterizing

    Hey Dan, Thanks for the quick reply. Tell me a little more about the refrigerator? We have a fridge that runs on electricity when plugged in, and battery when traveling. We had one previously that was propane / electric, and this one is not. We do not have an ice maker, no water is hooked up...

    De-winterizing

    Hi All: We have a 2016 390 MBL. Since it was a brand new unit, and I'd never really done winterizing, I invested the $125 and had the dealership do my winterizing of the camper and the water lines, etc. I think that I will tackle it next year, but am faced with the ordeal of de-winterizing...

    Actual Height??

    Bernie- I see what you are saying, but...If I measure when loaded, won't that be a more accurate number? I mean, we are talking inches probably- and if it's THAT close, I'm not going to chance it anyway. It could be one height depending on surface and if the camper is level, etc. and what kind...

    Actual Height??

    Thanks all. I think Dan's advice to measure just before pulling out when all loaded up makes the most sense- that way it's accurate for me. Last year we were taking a back road and came upon a low bridge, I think it was marked 13' 8" or some such. Would have been nice to have a few warning...

    Actual Height??

    I am looking at the specs for our 2016 390 MBL and for height it lists 12.92 feet. My question: Do you think this includes the added height of say the ladder, or the two AC units? Or, is that purely the height of the trailer itself? I haven't measured (yet, the cover is still on!) but that AC...

    I get by with a little help from my friends

    Thanks all for the great suggestions. We are using some and researching others. In my previous life as a police officer, we often used coffee at scenes where odors were an issue, so that was a good suggestion and reminded me of previous uses. I am happy to report that overnight airing and...

    I get by with a little help from my friends

    And then...Disaster! So, we go away for a week and not the camping kind of going away. Our camper is parked in our side yard as usual, with the land electric line hooked up to it. We never clean out the fridge until the end of the season when we get ready to winterize. That means all the...

    2016 390MBL Craftmanship Issues

    Greetings Factory, We have had three drawer malfunctions in our 2016 390MBL which has been a little frustrating, especially considering the cost of this brand new unit. Here's what is happening, and we suspect will happen again. A drawer will suddenly not go back in all the way. So, we remove...

    My Brilliant Wife Modifies Cabinet Space

    So, what do you do when it rains all camping weekend and you're tired of playing cribbage? If you are my wife you modify the cabinets! We have a 2016 MBL390 and the narrow cabinets between the fridge and the microwave are tall but skinny. We had been putting paper plates and cups in one and...

    Auto-Leveling Question

    Thanks Dave. Quick follow-up...Can you do the left-right button combo with all 6 leveling jacks down? Do all the jacks adjust to the height? My question or concern is that if you have to micro adjust an inch or two after this- and you go to manual mode- won't the other jacks being down...

    Auto-Leveling Question

    On our 2016 Oakmont 390MBL we have the auto-leveling feature. When we were at the dealership and doing our "Camper 101" class with the technician, he mentioned that the auto-level feature had something that we have yet to engage. I wonder if anyone else has? The auto-leveler is supposed to be...

    Couple of ideas regarding my new 390MBL

    Dang, not only an idiot, but a PUBLIC idiot! My wife and I laughed long and hard over this one. I still like our "solution" and will probably use the one we installed anyway as it is easier and more convenient to access. (He said, still trying to justify his behavior.)

    Ordered Oakmont 390MBL

    We love our State parks as well- but finding many of our old favorites don't have sites long enough. Or when they do, they are only a few and have already been taken. We went to one this past weekend and squeezing "Tiny" into the camping spot was an adventure. I was 8 inches off of the electric...

    Couple of ideas regarding my new 390MBL

    Hey Pirana, My wife and I have the same unit as you. We love it more and more as we use it more and more. However, like you, we have a few things we would change. No electric outlets near the master bed? My job requires me to have my phone nearby all the time and we were disappointed to learn...

    DETERMINED: 2016 Oakmont Bluetooth Question

    Re: 2016 Oakmont Bluetooth Question Well, that 800 number confirmed what we were thinking. The Bluetooth on the Jensen system in the camper is ​not designed to handle phone calls. It is meant to Bluetooth your music from various devices but will not do phone calls. Nor is there any add on...

    DETERMINED: 2016 Oakmont Bluetooth Question

    Re: 2016 Oakmont Bluetooth Question It is indeed a Jensen Jim. I'll give that a whirl and report back any good information. Thanks for the 800 number. Sam

    DETERMINED: 2016 Oakmont Bluetooth Question

    Re: 2016 Oakmont Bluetooth Question Thanks for the reply Dan. Maybe that's it. Perhaps the Bluetooth in the camper is more designed for the listening of music from your device than it is for the purpose of having a phone conversation? I doubt that the stereo system in the camper with the...

    DETERMINED: 2016 Oakmont Bluetooth Question

    Greetings All, My wife and I just brought home our new camper. As we transition and get things set up, I was trying to synch my phone to the camper's Bluetooth. Everything was going along well and my phone is successfully linked- but I ran across this and wondered if anyone had a suggestion...
