My suggestion is go to a tire dealer that specializes in truck tires. Apparently this Camping World doesn't know how to seat the tire bead and a lot tire of installers will not recommend the braided extensions. There are only three places a tire can leak: from a puncture, from a leaking valve stem or from a leaking tire/wheel bead.

Bill has the correct answer to resolve most issues with the T-Stats. Just remove the fuse, wait about a minute and then replace.

I just saw this today and wondering if anyone has any direct experience using it. http://www.rvtripwizard.com/ Thanks,

The Blue Ox website indicates very few base plates are available for 2017 models. The following is copied from their website: If you do not see your vehicle listed on our website, please contact Blue Ox’s Fit Department by e-mail or at 800-228-9289 as your vehicle may qualify for our fit program. Eligible customer’s will receive a custom made baseplate and an Aventa LX towbar in addition to a 25% discount on all product purchased for bringing their vehicle to our factory for the fit design.

My initial thought was your trip looks like its about 6000 miles round trip which is a lot of windshield time for a three week trip. 2000 miles a week doesn't leave much time for anything other than driving. We like to drive on average of 250 mile per day and usually we don't drive more than two consecutive days. Personally, I would shorten the trip by several thousand miles and enjoy some time doing something other than driving. Enjoy your maiden voyage wherever you choose to travel.

Maybe you have the manual but if not here is the link for it. http://www.splendide.com/manual_wd2100_2000s.pdf There may be some useful info found here also. http://www.splendide.com/support.htm I hope this helps some, if not I understand their phone support is really good.

We have stayed at Walmart's, Sam's Club, Costco, Lowes, Home Depot, State Welcome Centers and truck stops over the years. Truck stops and Welcome Centers being the least preferred due to trucks coming and going all night. We always call ahead and ask permission to park in the Walmarts, etc. They will usually tell us what area to park. Like Carl said, do not put your jacks down because they can damage the paving. We do try to locate so we can extend our bedroom slide over a median or edge of the parking lot. Don't bring out barbecue pits and lawn chairs, you're not camping and don't leave your trash. You will find lots of good information on over-nighting at this link. http://www.freecampgrounds.com/.

I can read any fault codes from the LBCU. A call to either Cummins or the Freightliner help desk and they will walk you through the steps and can tell you what the code means.

I based my Walmart suggestion on his comment "really don't want to do much other than pull over and sleep on the way". We've stayed at Seven Points COE east of Nashville.

Shawnee to Ft Smith is 150 miles, there may be a Walmart half way if you want to stop between the two cities.

Doc Mike, most all RV's that are in storage use this kind of connection if using the built-in charger. Where are you camping in MN? We try to spend several weeks each summer in Ely, love the Boundary Waters.

The A/C compressor can most definitely seize due to lack of use. Thats why I would never install a used compressor from a salvage yard. I cycle my A/C during the winter just for this reason. I would change the T-Stat for the same reason, lack of use. As I recall, you have 8000 miles on a eight or possibly a nine year old motorhome. Depending on who the original delivering dealer was it could have had 1000-1500 miles on it at delivery. Less than a thousand miles a year is not enough miles to exercise the mechanical parts. Curious, how many hours are on the genset?

My 2016 Mall Crawler is as bright as the OEM brake light. The 2005 Off road is also as bright. The only real down side is the third brake light doesn't illuminate. Herman, I tried the diodes when I towed a Malibu. I had several problems with them to point I eventually rewired to the Blue Ox 88269. I'm proud of you Blake for picking up on the mall crawler. Even a Wrangler can be classified a mall crawler before modifications are done to turn in to a real Jeep.

I've used the Blue Ox light kit on a 2005 Jeep Wrangler, 2014 Jeep Wrangler and a 2016 Jeep Wrangler. http://blueox.com/products/tow-bar/bx88269-clear-led-tail-light-wiring-kit/

This timeline will to differentiate the Jeep models.

Nice looking Jeep; It would have been hard for me to get rid of it.

Joe, I almost bought that color but went with the Sahara Sand. I love it because it hardly shows when its dirty, which is often. Don't let Carl intimidate you. He's just jealous because he doesn't have a purty bright color Jeep. Sorry, Blake. The mall crawling Cherokees don't qualify for a Jeep wave but if you're in Texas we wave at everybody. Also...only mall crawler Cherokees have push button start and all that other fancy stuff; we Wrangler jeeples still turn a key to start.

I am not. Don't they have a waiting list?

Two great choices. I recently towed the 2016 JKU for about 200 miles before I installed the M&G brake, I'd forgotten the difference it made in stopping. The 2006 TJ and the 2014 JKU have M&G braking, simple and very effective braking system.

Here is one way if you want plug and play. http://www.mopar.com/part/82211156AB This is what I've done on my 2006, 2014 and now my 2016. http://www.adventurerv.net/blue-bulb-socket-wiring-kit-towing-p-1621.html?gclid=CjwKEAjwmMS-BRCm5dn51JLbp1wSJACc61tF-t03EDE9N-15orxvUhefQDLszFuQBBh4KLqOtAKYNxoC2Qzw_wcB&utm_campaign=partsfeed_ppc&utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=Froogle I've towed my Jeeps for thousands of miles and never disconnected the battery yet. Just so you know, Jeep manuals are the least accurate manuals ever written. You may want to join the Jeep Wrangler Forum for the knowledge and experience from the members.

Simply Google "camping world service reviews" or do a search on any RV forum for Camping World and you will get more information than you may want. I suggest Googling camping world Indianapolis to see if anything pops up. Personally, I wouldn't let them touch much less work on my motorhome. True, a location may be good this week and next week goes to pot because of their high employee turnover.

Hi Brett, when my ATS failed the a/c worked on shore power but not on the genset.

I suggest reading this thread regarding the Jeep Cherokee.

I'm in agreement with everyone else, either tow dolly/trailer or use a different vehicle for a toad. You say you've read where some have successfully towed four down; I've also read where someone wasn't killed when their parachute didn't open but that doesn't mean I'm going to jump out of an airplane without a parachute.
