  1. Our Dirt Devil central vac went into a storage bay below the fridge. It attached to the top of the bay so still have room for my stuff. Important to be in the middle for the hose to reach front to back. http://www.campingworld.com/shopping/item/dirt-devil-cv-1500-central-vacuum-system-with-hepa-style-bags/69640
  2. Heres a link from a previous discussion: http://www.shearcomfort.com/ We have them and really like the comfort. Good luck! rB
  3. He will be missed indeed. Thanks very much for this!
  4. Thanks for such a complete and detailed response Tom. I see lead by example in action here and it is a pleasure to hear about the commitment on the part of believers who cherish and show respect for the planet's resources. Very good advice to at least ask the operators where you can put materials for pickup and possibly start a movement and we all know seniors love movements! If we do review campgrounds, in RVPark reviews for example, we might mention the recycling efforts as a positive.
  5. Seems very rare to stay in a campground with recycling bins. All the waste goes into the landfill. Should clubs such as ours encourage owners to recycle glass, metal and paper or is that someone else's responsibility?
  6. Much thanks Brett. This wasn't in my binder.
  7. Ok and what does it do? Can you set it? Is it supposed to close the awning? No capiche
  8. What is this and what does it do? I can't open or slide it open. Doesn't seem to be tied to my awning. Does it need a wind gauge attachment to close the awning when the wind rises above a preset level? Scratches his head icon Thx, rB
  9. IMO, keep your infrastructure to a minimum especially for Class A clients. They stay in their coach/condo ap'ts for most of their needs. Put your money into a building with laundromat and maybe a few unisex shower closets. A pet enclosure'd be a big plus with hard and soft ground areas. An electric dog polisher'd be nice but rare these days because of the cutbacks ;-)
  10. I'd go for the overnight configuration too - power only. Needed if hot or cold. Saves people staring their gennys early morning.
  11. KeggarTheres a new low in the life of a mechanic huh? I feel sorry for those volunters cleaning up the highways!
  12. Wonderful blacktop in North America marred by urine filled containers littering the landscape. They don't stop at rest stops with trash containers? When they fuel up they cant make two extra steps to place it in the trash? What a blight on our roads!
  13. I have this very annoying problem on my 2007 Workhorse chassis. Constant clicking off during a fillup. Thanks for the tip! rB
  14. Thanks Rich! I wouldnt have thought of treating the tires and yes best to sit tires on wood not dirt or concrete. Now top oil in the fuel tank?
  15. I have been offered an overseas assignment. We will be away for 2 years. It's a gas engine so fog the cylinders, change the oil, stabilize the fuel and take weight off tires is the most common advice. The same goes for the gas generator I'd imagine. It will be stored indoors unheated in a winter climate. Has anyone done this? Thanks rB
  16. My wife really likes Big Buddy. Takes 2 small canisters of fuel and puts out amazing heat. Crack a window for ventilation and don't use while sleeping. Here's a link: http://www.amazon.com/Mr-Heater-MH18B-Portable-Propane/dp/B0002WRHE8/ref=sr_1_cc_1?s=aps&ie=UTF8&qid=1354828566&sr=1-1-catcorr&keywords=big+buddy+heater
  17. Thank you Deborah. I have fixed the hole and rotated the part that sticks up and into the fabric. Glad to hear its not been a problem for you! Does your wind-detector-auto-rollup feature work for you? rB
  18. Anyone else have this product on their rig? Mine is on a 2008 Fleetwood Southwind. See that piece that sticks up from the slide topper and into the awning? I wrote Dometic and they told me it was an installation error. This is another rig and it has the same problem. That piece that sticks up will wear a hole in the fabric over time, as mine has, and compromise the integrity of the material.
  19. My PowerGear jacks sag after holding up the rig for less than 5 minutes. I'm using Camco Tri-Leveler to help with sites that slope down. Anyone else have this problem?
  20. Thanks Herman. The welding supply option is the best. I found a Dynaline product #11363. It is floor mounted and has a wide receptacle for thicker hoses. Curly cords have issues so this method seems to be a better solution.
  21. Just wondering if anyone has rigged up a hose reel in one of your bins for the water hose. I've seen curly ones and that might be my next buy but for now I would like to store the hose with out it bending, twisting and/or folding. Anyone?
  22. <p>A great story! We have heard about Savannah but now we are more excited about a visit. Thank you!</p> <div id="myEventWatcherDiv" style="display:none;"> </div>
  23. Navistar won't confirm that the line will shut down in October: http://www.truckingi...p?news_id=77991
  24. Hmmm as I suspected. Thanks very much Brett. Saves big bucks in labor charges.
