  1. Planning to visit the Grand Canyon in Sept./Oct. this year. We will be traveling from central Fl. and need as much information about length of time for traveling and places to visit along the way. We are traveling in a class A motorhome. We also plan to go to Bryce and Zion while in the area. We are retired and not in a hurry.


  2. I had been hearing an uncomfortable noise coming from my front driver side tire.  When the wheel was turned I could see at least two places where the tire was bald and appeared to be square. Obviously this was creating the thumping sound I heard. All the tires were installed the same time and air maintained with my via compressor. The other 5 tires all seem good with plenty of tread, even looking new. Has anyone experienced a situation like this? They are 22 inch tires on my 06 bounder.


  3. I have been using a master tow dolly for the last 6 years and have had many blowouts. Each blowout usually rips the polyethylene fenders off . Our last experience not only blew out the tire, and caused the fender to break away, but also mangled the steel frame preventing the spare from being put on. I keep the tire pressure inflated and the vehicle does not exceed the tow dollies weight capacity. 

    I have been using a radial tire from tractor supply, but have also used D rated bias ply with the same results.

    All suggestions welcome. I am switching to a Goodyear American made tire.


  4. We will be heading towards Akron to visit a friend and while ther drive into Cleveland to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

    From Akron we will be heading east to Gettysburg.This will be the second week of April and I need a c/g near Akron with access to Cleveland.


  5. We are looking for c/g that will have cabin rentals for grandchildren and parents with space for our motorhome. We have seen Medcalf Acres and spoken to owner, however they want payment in full with no refunds. I would not feel comfortable with that policy.

    Any recommendations for cabin/site rentals would be appreciated.

    We would like to stay in proximity to Lake George also.

    Thanks


  6. Mine also missed Topsail this summer by 3 miles, and put us on a one way,dead end street in Fayetteville N.C. We had to take the car off the tow dolly and the gps insisted our address was across the street, when in actuality it was 9 miles away.

    These 2 problems were the only ones in thousands of travel miles.

    I like the features.


  7. We are planning a trip out west leaving central Florida next May for a few months. We do not want to do one niters, we would like to see the sites along the way.

    How do you make reservations in the parks without having to drive till you get there.

    Are there other RV parks near the national parks where we are close enough. I understand that reservations well in advance are necessary. Is this true? How do you enjoy a trip like this without rushing from one point to the other.

    Thank you


  8. My wife and I are looking to step up in size and class to a Class A Fleetwood Pace Arrow.

    We are told that the previous (only) owner put 8,000 miles on it locally.

    My concerns are low mileage and gas mileage.

    Currently, my Class C Ford V-10 gets about 7+mpg.

    What are your thoughts about the low mileage and the MPG?
