    Is there a tool located on or in the mpg to change the tires? I just tried to change mine but could not find a tool to fit the bolts on the tires? Also where can I buy new tires?

    So, Where Do You Put Your Clothes in an MPG?

    Other then food and some items we stored all out clothes, towels and other items in our two vehicle this years trip and it was great. I didnt feel cramped up inside and it only took seconds for us to get things from the tow vehicle.

    Do any of you guys have add-on mirrors?

    Re: Do any of you guys have add-on mirrors for towing your MPG? We use them on our Rav 4 when towing. If not we could not see a thing in the Ravs standard mirrors.

    Minivan towable?

    We tow ours with a Rav 4 with no troubles. Last year we towed ours for 4+ hrs straight when it was full of gear, tanks full of water, 3 Huskies and two humans with no trouble at all. You might need a better tow package with sway bars and brakes.

    Bed

    Im 6"3 and unfortunetly the only down side for me with our MPG is the bed length. My wife and I slept together the first night but that was all that I could manage. Now we have to use the two beds. Me in one and her in the other. Not the best option but its only when its sleep time anyways...

    What else do I need?

    I 2nd the mirror suggestion. When we picked up our MPG the first thing I purchased was the mirrors. If we didnt we would have been in trouble. No way we could see behind the MPG with the standard mirrors on out TV. Even if your TV mirrors work it doesnt hurt to have a better view anyways.

    Towing

    Specific dog breeds not allowed - have you ever experienced this?

    This is to bad but unfortunetly there are lots of dog owners like this around who make it bad for the good owners. It is to bad really because it is so easy to pick up after your dogs.

    Design changes

    I would like to see the tv area by the master bed instead of near the table.The only time we watched TV was when we were heading to bed. Had to use a portable dvd player.Night lights near the master bed would also be cool. Other then that some nice flood lights on the top of the MPG's would also...

    Specific dog breeds not allowed - have you ever experienced this?

    The main reason we purchased a rv was because we wanted to enjoy our vacations with our three Huskies. My dogs rarely bark which is great by me. We always try and stick to a few rules while we are with our dogs. (1)Always keep them on a leash. I run lenghts of rope across our site and attach my...

    Propane Heater Placement

    I had it on one night and it blows the heat out from the bed. It does heat the bed up nice but also they rest of the trailer as well. I have a feeling it was designed to heat the main bed up quicker. For sites with power we went out and purchased a little space heater. One that swivels. Place it...

    Why Not 4 Leveling Jacks?

    Here is what I picked up to use as extra jacks.2nd item up from the bottom.I like these because i can place them around the MPG making it more stable.And they are a decent price as well. Half the cost of two leveling jacks.

    You would think a step by step manuel on winterizing would come with different rv models. It sure would help out the new guys like me that is for sure.

    Why Not 4 Leveling Jacks?

    You could have leveling jacks installed at the front/hitch area of the MPG. I was thinking about it but just purchased 4 portable jacks instead.

To be honest the cabinet didnt get very wet at all.More so the toilet and walls behind the toilet as i was standing over the toilet, feet on each side...sort of.LOL. I didnt have the water on that much. Just to wet down and...

    Specific dog breeds not allowed - have you ever experienced this?

    It should read "All dogs welcome. Poor owners are banned". Its a shame that a few folks with poorly trained dogs are ruining it for the many good owners and good dogs. I havnt seen this up in Canada yet so hopefully we can take our Huskies just about anywhere.

    Winterizing a MPG. A few questions

I removed the hatch where I can see the pump but I could not see any valves to turn off? Is there any valves to turn off on the MPG pump? I...

    MPG Shower

    I used the shower last week while camping. It was a little cramped but was worth it. All you need to do is wipe it down afterward and its like you were not even in there. Worked great for me.

    Time to come out of the closet

    I have found that with anything you buy its best to buy closer to your home town. I was thinking of buying a different travel trailer rather then the MPG but i would of had to drive 13+hrs to get there. For maintance,etc that Is to far to travel. I went 4hrs away to Woodys RV world in Edmonton...
