    Chevy Diesel Question

    Yeah I guess. My 3200re is about 10400 dry when we go to the races and I would guess we take an additional 3000 lbs of stuff including water. It does very well my only complaint is that it does not shift out of 5th gear soon enough. ( that would be from 5th to 4th. I have a 5 speed allison )...

    Race/Rally

    I don't like staying anywhere that I have to drive to the track, the whole traffic and drinking and driving doesn't excite me. I know we can get a group of 10 or 15 sites at Bristol, all we have to do is talk to Bristol campground and tell them that is what we NEED or else we go somewhere else...

    Camping in Winter

    I am currently camping in easteren Ohio and it has been as low as 28. All I do is leave the heat on. Keep it around 45 to 50 is where I set mine at. I also have a water hose that has heat tape on it for the supply hose. So far has worked for me.

    Race/Rally

    Bristol campgorund charges $160 for race week. No they don't have hook ups. It has never been a big deal to us because we have generators and we are set up to stay at places like this. I know not everyone is,but we are. They are less than 1 mile from the track and have trams that run back and...

    Where do I get this propane fitting?

    I have a 2010 Sundance 3200RE, and beside my entry door under the skirting is a quick connect for a gas grill. My unit didn't come with the male fitting for it, so I bought one at Lowes and it was too long. Gas leaked out around it. I have tried to get one at local plumbing shops and I have...

    F250 & Sundance Fiver

    I know this is gonna bite me but who here has been " busted " for being over weight while towing their 5er? I know theres more to it than that, like if you get in a accident and you are towing more than the truck is rated to tow you are screwed. We just bought a new 2010 Sundance 3200RE in...

    Wet basement WHY?

    Ok so I drilled 3 holes in the bottom of the UDC and put teflon tape on the outside shower fittings. Also put some silicone between the end of the UDC and the edge of the basement, I am waiting to see if this works. But I also have the problem of the leaking hot water tank that I drained and...

    Wet basement WHY?

    Yeah I have seen some of the pics someone posted about drilling the hole in the bottom of the UDC, I have been meaning to do that so that water doesn't pool up there just haven't gotten around to it. As for the shower drain, as I had said I went inside and turned the shower on and let it run for...

    Wet basement WHY?

    Forgot to mention that when I took the cover off from in behind the UDC, everything behind it was dry as a bone. All the saw dust from the building of the unit the flooring, everything. It has me very stupified. Is there any way it could be coming for the under side of the unit.

    Wet basement WHY?

    Thanks for your quick response. I have turned the city water off and I am planning on going home for the weekend, hopefully by the time I met back on Monday nite it will have dried up so I can try these suggestions. I know I had to turn the check valve around so the black tank flush would work...

    I have 2010 Sundance 3200RE and I am staying in my unit while working out of town. I have noticed that the basement of the camper is wet and I have no idea where it is coming from.

    Part of the problem is that the campground I am staying at doesn't have the option of cable it does not come down the road that the campground is on. Everyone on the road has Dish or Direct TV. I don't want to get Direct TV at home for two reasons 1) I like my cable and I am happy with the...

    I am trying to do the same thing and all of the above info has me even more confused. There are three wires comming off the Dish. One is a ground wire and the other two are like regular cable wires. Where do I hook these up to and why does my Sundance have a telephone type jack for the satellite...

    Will my truck be a good match for this RV?

    I have seen people pull trailers that big with the same truck. I would go with the air bags they are great. My Sundance weights about 12000 when we are loaded and I fell that my 05 2500HD long bed does just fine. If you would really like to know acording to the numbers and the legal aspect...
