I know it's been a while since I updated this topic. So here is what we found out. And was as recent as last weekend.
We head up to Michigan and we set everything up and we bought a spare electric fridge. I get everything all good and ready and I went out to check that everything was...
So here is the update with the first time camper experience:
First this group has been more helpful than any of the F-250 Diesel forums I have been on and sifted through looking for answers.
We were going to take the camper up to Michigan last weekend to see family. Really glad the truck...
Ok so on the hose issue we removed the old hose and cleaned it up real good. First with brake fluid cleaner, then with hairspray. Wiped it down and let it dry. Did that on the hose on both ends and on all connections. Placed the clamp back on with an extra nut over the one that's on it now...
So we took the truck and camper out two weekends ago. Not too far from where we lived to get a feel for the truck and towing and any issues we might run into while towing.
So here is what I found:
Truck:
The U-Joint on the drive shaft needed to be replaced - Done
The Differential needed...
This is a great question. Had I never of used a camper before I would not know either. We just bought a BH270 as well and found that ours are labeled wrong. The gray(grey) water tank is the left side and our black is the right side. But the labels are switched. We normally would empty our...
Re: New Pioneer BH270 Refridarator not working
Battery voltage is fine. Plug going to fridge works just fine, even after the check light comes on the fridge. I am taking it back to Camper World for them to fix.
Thanks for all the suggestions.

So we re on our first trip with the camper. We leveled the camper out and the fridge won't come on. Ours is a Domestic one. Only has two buttons. One for on or off and the other is auto or gas. We tried the auto button, which is should choose between electric or gas. And after 10 minutes...
Well, my wife and I discussed all our options and we opted for a new truck (to us at least) We traded the Tundra in for a 2004 Ford F-250 Super Duty Lariat, V-8 6.0. This is my first diesel and I have a ton of questions about diesels. But that will wait.
We have two trips planned. The first...
Sorry it has taken me so long in responding.
First I would love a new(er) truck but I think I will have to wait.
We did our walk through and everything took about 6.5 hours. The dealer did add water, batteries and propane to show everything worked. I was assured they would empty the tanks...
Good morning all,
First I want to say we are super excited for our new camper. (We pick it up today at 2pm)
But I have a few concerns that I did ask the dealer and they insured me everything will be OK.
I just want to run this by the experts to make sure we are OK.
We have a 2006 Tundra...

@JJAUSTIN - This is really good info. My wife I just bought a 2018 one and we pick it up tomorrow. Anything that you ran across that you think should be looked at would be great. We have the inspection checklist and I have gone through it a couple times now and marked NA to the items that...
