    Making sense of the tire talk

    Bob. You are absolutly right I may have damaged this tire at some other time. I do remember cutting a turn and running over a curb on that leading tire. It was at least 1000 miles ago though.

    How do you decyper the model nunmber?

    My understanding years ago. For fifth wheels the length number was usable living space length. For travel trailers it designated total length of trailer including hitch and bumper.

    I know this is overkill but you never know!

    You just repeat what I said, I don't like overfueling the engine.

    I know this is overkill but you never know!

    Hopefully Ford and Ram does move the dpf regen to the exhaust, thus eliminating some fuel bypassing the rings. If not we will be switching to GM. This article may explain some dpf regen questions. The 9th glow plug is in exhaust pipe because GM injects in exhaust to regen the DPF filter...

    I know this is overkill but you never know!

    Hang in there, moving the dpf to the exhaust pipe and not during exhaust cycle within the engine as ford and ram do is a significant improvement. No more oil contamination. At least that is the plan at present, subject to change.

    I know this is overkill but you never know!

    Wait for the 13's, the dpf clean procedure is being moved to the exhaust pipe instead of over fueling the engine, also because of def the egr will be reduced significantly. Also with 2 overdrives I would definitely get the 410's...

    Cleaning window seals

    Probably not the same, but, the camper we leave in Florida developes black spots throughout the vinyl. I clean them with a scrubby pad and cleaner wax. Removes the spots. Over time it may remove some vinyl.

    how do I access the back of the 2.0

    I believe the speakers (a,b, and c) are only from output from radio/dvd player. You will have to send audio out from the tv to play tv broadcasts thru them. Not very efficient because I believe you may need some sort of amplification. On our tv, we go to video1 for input. The dvd player...
