  1. Not so much as the dog house in a Gas Coach but still the cover (not removable) is still protruding into the cab. Had several Vans and if you leaned your leg against the box it would be very warm. Good in the winter, bad in the summer. Herman
  2. Carl, I think Joe meant from the dog house when he had a Class "C". One of the reason some of the older cars were so quite was that they were under coated. I remember taking the door panels off of several cars and painting the inside of the door with undercoating. Black gueie paint that was really thick, but it helped to deaden the road noise. Back to Archie, "Ah those were the Days". Herman
  3. Wayne, When you call A/H asks them if you need to do the same on an Propane unit. A friend of mine has a 2018 all Electric Entegra with a Propane unit in it. Just curious. Herman
  4. Sorry, I miss read your itinerary stops, it looked like it was a 21 day trip. Sound like a plan. Herman
  5. Diana, It looks as if you have yourself a fairly ambitious plan. My only concern is that it looks as if you will be traveling most everyday and not being able to see any thing but the view out your windshield. We have always tried to make our plans to travel to a point we would like to visit, spend the night, visit the area, then spend the night and travel the next. Couldn't tell if day 4 is Pueblo of Colorado Springs. Colorado Springs has the Olympic Training Canter and the Air Force Academy both really two places to visit. Cheyenne is only really good for us since our kids and grand kids live there. In Custer SD you have Mt Rushmore which is not to be missed and you can always visit Sturgis unless you are going the first of August . Really bad time. you are going to be very close to Yellowstone on day 8. Can't take you further but Wildebill , Tom & Louise and several others can help from there. Hope you have a great trip. Drive Safe. Herman
  6. Tiffin10, M&G Engineering in Athens Texas Makes a Braking System for the 2010-2017 Chevrolet Equinox. It is their P/N 403 ET. Their unit requires no electrical hook except for the Brake Away that has no draw util the Brake Away is needed. 903-675-2812 or montymg@live.com Herman
  7. If you are in Casa Grande RV Resort, have a good breakfast for me. They cook breakfast several mornings a week. They have a movie night each week and a lot more. it was a really nice park. We didn't get to the spring training sites. Have fun and enjoy. Herman
  8. Brewers, are those people that works in a brewery? Enjoy Spring Training, is it in Surprise, AZ? Herman
  9. Several thoughts come to mind. 1) I noticed she had sorta of a smile on her face. She knows the insurance premiums are paid. 2) She is saying to him, "YOU had to have a Back in site and would not listen to me when I said STOP! Herman
  10. Take notes Gents. This post was started over three years ago, almost longer than Gillian's Island was on TV. Herman
  11. Richard, On our first coach we only had a Converter/Charger. To operate the TV, Microwave or coffee pot you either had to be on shore power or have the generator running. It served us well till we found about coaches with Inverters. We can now dry camp with the refrigerator running and coffee ready when we wake up. Now I do run the gen. for about 1 hour before we retire and again when we getup. It's like wearing a belt with suspenders just to be on the safe side. Herman
  12. If the kit requires power and your battery discharges, what does that do to the kit????? Does the wobble return until the Battery is recharged? Herman
  13. Kay, You may already know this but I use my Garmin GPS for my Speed indicator it is more accurate than my Speedometer. Herman
  14. Nan, Sorry for the loss of you dog. Hope the foot has healed enough to head South. We have all gone around and around and failed to ask you on important question. What make is your coach, year, model and engine you have. This will help better answer your question. You may already have adequate equipment and just need some fine tuning or you may need more or different equipment. Let us know. Herman
  15. Sorry gc, the military Fam camps are for Active duty, Retired or 100% disabled Veterans. However if you are traveling with one of the aforementioned you may be their guest and park with them. They must be parked for the same time as you. and you must leave when they leave. Herman
  16. Talk about an original "Bus Nut". Good story Richard. Herman
  17. Poche's RV Park and Fishing Camp?? Herman
  18. Wayne, you have received some very sound advice. However the tech that services my unit Lloyd De Gerald says to run it at least once a month. If needed to, run the thermostat up to 80 degrees or enough to make the unit come on and then let it run for 20 to 30 minutes. It is the same with your generator. At least once a month under load. This helps keep them both in proper working order. You may already know it but here is how the Aqua Hot cycles. When you turn it on, the first thing you will hear is the internal blower come on to clear any gases that may have accumulated in the combustion chamber and then the burner will ignite. When it completes the heating and goes off it will repeat the cycle. Burner off and blower will clear the chamber of residual gases. The Aqua Hot is a wonderful unit when operating properly and pia when not. The DW loves it because it heats without the loud noise you have from the heat pumps. Herman
  19. No, no, Brisket is also to die for. Slow cooked over Mesquite, sliced on an open bun with a good KC sauce and a bit of sweet relish. M-m-m! My meal everyday would be if I could, 3 Eggs over easy with real Hash Browns, and White Toast with real butter and Blackburn's Peach Preserves for breakfast. Open Sliced Brisket Sandwich, Fried Okra and Potato Salad with a dish of Peach Cobbler for Lunch. And to top the day off, Chicken Fried Steak with Mashed Potato and cream gravy along with fresh Green Beans ending with Sweet Potato Pie with real Whipped Cream. I just gained 4 pounds writing this. Herman
  20. This is just my opinion. Once when in Perry, there was a vendor in a Fifth Wheel with a generator literally hanging off the back of his unit. He was parked in the 24 Hour Gen Lot. Everyone of his neighbor complained of the noise. We ended up putting him on and 30 amp electric without water or sewer away from everyone. So possibly that may have caused the restriction. I don't know for sure, just my speculation. This was before there were any talk about towables. Herman
  21. Jim, No difference other than what it is called. Years ago where ever you were down south, if you questioned the menu a Chicken Fried Steak was always a good choose. However now many places go to places like Sam's but a box of frozen, heavenly breaded, pattie of hard to describe ground beef. When cooked the breading puffs up and the pattie sriviles up and you need a Steak Knife to cut it. A really good CFS is a nice thin cut of Flank or Round Steak, really tinderized, dregged in seasoned flour then milk and back into the flour and into the frying pan. And when done right you can cut it with you fork. A must is Cream Gravy and Mash Potatoes. Mmmm, I have just talked myself into lunch at Tracks in Sherman, TX. Herman
  22. My concern is that Chrysler knows that they have a severe issue but still recommends them for towing. Herman
  23. Bill, Babe's has a number of locations and they are all great. We have also eaten at the one in Burleson. They have one in Granbury, Garland and Sanger. The home style servings are great. The nice thing is that they have Fried Chicken, Fried Fish and Chicken Fried Steak (which is so much better than those other places with Country Fried Steak.) Herman
  24. We have had so much rain here that when I was at Lowe's just the other day, I saw a man with long hair, a beard and wearing a robe, trying to buy lumber in cubic lengths. Herman
  25. Most wrenches today are forged with tolerances to allow for plating. A thousands of an inch too much will make the tool loose and as was said there goes the hex head. I have some very old wrenches that were US made and before shining and they still fit snug and show no sign of wear. Herman
