i agree with the lowes/home depot idea. cut a small piece of it off and take it with you to match it. it does look like shower door sealer!

that sounds good. yeah, our time is very limited. we basically get out 2x/year for big trips and thats it. usually dont/cant do just a weekend. where does the summer go so fast??? omg! and its almost time to pull the boat out of the water for the year too! will keep a watch on events...

i think starlite is where my friend said her daughter goes with a friend of her that has a seasonal site. id like to make one of the rallys sometime but............ we have very limited vacation time and weekends are taken up usually by work. would need to find a rally around week of the...

while your holding tank isnt a septic tank, you dont have alot of push behind the waste to get it moving when you dump. gravity only. all the heavier material (solid waste and TP) will settle to the lowest point until dumped. that is in the pipe itself and around the opening of it. thats why...

got my reservations for 5 days at jellystone rv park in quarryville, pa for the weekend of the 15-19th of oct. we went there last year for halloween weekend and my 2 grandsons had a blast! going back again this year.

the new site doesnt play well at all with mine either. locks the entire internet up. what does load takes a long time!

awww. congrats to youre entire family. he is such a cutie!!

i sure hope she can!! lol. right now she gets to playing so hard she forgets what she is doing and lets go of anything holding her up! im so afraid she is going to get hurt falling. makes me wonder how ANY of them survive in the wild watching her! i have the 3300rlb and have a "spare" room...

thank you so much for the info and the pics. BIG HELP!! now, how well do birds travel?? i hate the thought of her cooped up for so long on a travel day. she is very active and loves to play, yet i feel a bigger car carrier is unsafe. im afraid id hit a bump and make her fall if she trys to...

thanks for the help everyone. we got a little caique. a small parrot. she wont be more than about 9 inches but for her size needs a large cage. she is very energetic. lol, the description of them says "caiques are like a hyperactive child before having its medication". i dont want to do...

we have a new family member. we got a bird. has anyone ever tried taking a bird camping?

yep. 80 thru pa is free. once you got to ohio there is lots of options. 80/90 in ohio is a toll road. if you take 76 over thru akron to lodi, OH you can pick up SR-224 or go south on I-71 to rt 30. while 224 and 30 are not major highways they are in very good condition with very little...

ive used scott for years (in camper and home). actually grew up using it. seems over the last 15 years its gotten thinner and thinner. just in the last 6 months its now so thin it falls apart as soon as it gets wet. NOT GOOD! ive been looking for another brand. think i will try the angel...

pilot and flying j merged but the government said NO to the sale going thru at first. said it would be to much of a monopoly. they made pilot sell off some of their locations before they would allow the merger to go thru. they sold only 26 locations out to loves...

thanks for the warning. i leave tie downs in the back all the time. will remove them now since im getting ready to head out the door for work. sorry about your glass!

i blew out the fuse on our maiden voyage this past week too. the dealer warned me about that. if the landing gear was raised all the way it would blow out. i got distracted and then OOPS!! so, continued on the the next campground and manually dropped it there. was a few days before we got...

i was think along the lines of using some 3M 5200. this is sealant/adhesive. works great on my boat and think it would work great for this to seal it off. only problem with this is....... once its on, ITS ON FOR GOOD...

john, i have to agree with you on that. i use the mcguiars on my boat and it removes the most stubborn commorant/gull poop stains you can imagine!! even after baking on in hot sun if we dont go to the boat for a week or 2. after the polishing compound i would reccomend the PURE WAX. this...

hi everyone. i signed the papers and took possession of my new sundance 3300rfb about a 1 1/2 weeks ago. we picked it up on a tuesday and left out friday for maine. the trip was pretty much uneventful. tires stayed inflated (yay) and everything stayed together (for the most part). put...

thank you for all the replies. the reason i was questioning the marathons is because the load range is right for the trailer (sundance 3300 RLB). i had not considered the maxxis but will have to look into them too. my 1st choice is the goodyear g614. we pick up the trailer tomorrow. i...

after reading all the bad stuff about china bombs on here i decided i want to replace the tires on my new sundance. we havent even taken possesion of it yet. thats on tuesday:D im looking at the goodyear marathon tire. it comes in the size that is currently on the trailer and has a load...

i just picked my truck up today with new air bags on it. the place that put them on comfirmed my 1st thoughts of how to know what pressure............. measure your bumper height from the ground with NO weight. this is the factory height. hook up and add enough air to bring it back to that...

picked up my truck today with new 5er hitch, air bags and compressor. they forgot to do the in bed plug. need to return monday to get that put in then we pick up the new sundance on tues!! cant wait! mike, followed alot of your advice. ok, so i had to cut back. you really did want to run...

woohoo mike!! looking good! ok, so this has been bugging me since you 1st sen me pics.......... what company owned that truck before you? i can picture it but cant remember the name! very distinctive paint job! going nuts searching the oh so very shallow depths of my mind!!

jellystone, that sounds WONDERFUL!! ive been looking into this for a few years. i now have 2 grandsons. both dec babies. i try, each year, to do something special for their bdays. for the up coming 2 & 4 bday i have a cruise planned. for the next bday season but have disney in my sights...

YAY!! i just got the call today. new 3300RLB is in. cant pick it up till NEXT tues though. they said they need a week to detail it. cutting it REAL close. we leave 3 days after that for a 10 day trip to maine.

i have the rand mcnally laminated motor carrier road atlas. its geared for professional truck drivers but has a wealth of info available in it including low bridge clearances, low weight limits, hazmat restrictions (yes, sometimes the propane tanks count. 95 in baltimore thru the harbor...

bighurt, my most worrisome time is making a L turn. you know, when cars will try to sneek past you on a narrow shoulder. you get a chance to go but see a car back there........... to compensate, i either play RUDE driver (at least thats what the cars think) and block that narrow shoulder...

once again, thanks for the advice. think id feel better with a compressor on board though. dont cherish the thought of crawling around on the ground at fuel stops to air the bags up if needed. yuck!! lol. but sounds like i wont need to go the trouble of mounting the gauge and controls on...

lol. thank you. didnt have a clue what you were talking about!

ummmm, the folks i meet at night?

http://www.suspensionconnection.com/cgi-bin/suscon/2330.html?id=xTj4U2Ed this is what i came up with...... looks EASY!! i like the idea of NO DRILL!! ive always hated the idea of compromising any part of original design. always swore id never get a 5er because i didnt want to DRILL into the...

thank you smokeybare and ray!

now, any tips on airbags? where to get them, approx cost, brands to look at etc etc? i know nothing about this stuff. after reading a bunch of other posts, im beginning to really wonder if i am getting in over my head and should have stuck with a TT! my dealer (i know......... not exactly...

thanks for all the tips!! getting a new truck is out of the question. cant afford a car, camper AND truck payment! looks like upgrading the existing f-250 is the way to go.

ive already thought of the tail swing john. thats something i dont have to worry about in my work rig. i drive a tanker and my tandems are all the way at the back so tail swing is some thing im NOT used to! it is something ive always kept in mind when towing the TT i just sold. my thoughts...

thank you jim. i do plan on the really good PDI!! we will be heading to maine shortly after getting it and will probably not have time to take it out locally before that. does "camping" in the yard count? lol. easier towing........... from all the research ive done we are now maxed out...

while not new at all to towing a camper or towing in general (i drive a tractor/trailer) i am new to towing a 5th wheel camper. any tips that you all can give me on this would be GREATLY appreciated! i have 10 years experience with a tractor/trailer but im sure there are many differences...
