  1. p.s., the wheel usually comes with a short straight valve and a dual headed trucker's tire inflation head is necessary to fill it and a dual headed trucker's gauge to check pressure. The inner tire is usually the same and the two trucker's items are needed. As Joe pointed out, easy to rotate the back tires.
  2. Ah grasshoppers, I do one other step every so many dumps of the black. I have DW fill the toilet basin to the rim and then flush, and I have her do it twice. I call it the "power" flush. If you have a clear valve you can see the additional "brown that must go down."
  3. Typically the outer wheel valve stem points inward and the inner wheel points outward. Using the Dually Valve I have a 135˚ or more valve for the outer and a straight for the inner. Nice thing about it is there are no extensions. These are valves directly fitted to the wheel.
  4. Where there is sound and a volume control there is a speaker. Disconnect the speaker wire. Requires a little electronics knowledge.
  5. I'll bet there is some company out there that would be willing to take a hunk of your money.
  6. Friend has a Thor and the hose for the washer rubbed against the wiper wearing it out. Solution was to buy a 90˚ elbow which directs the rubber hose away from the wiper arm.
  7. Mypopslou, yes, with my TST TPMS system the monitor is always 3 psi below what 3 other gauges I have indicate. The 3 other all read within 1/2 psi of each other. I mentioned this to TST and it was stated that the monitor is more accurate. So, with that said, and you know what the readings are, just use it as a reference. If your monitor states 105 psi you then have approximately 110 psi in the tires.
  8. Many people have had good experiences with the braided extensions but in my case I got a bad set on install. The braid near the crimp leaked. Cost me a couple tires. So, I used the Dually Valve Stems and they work wonderfully. Call them with your specifications and ask questions. They are well worth the investment.
  9. I have two. Just make sure they are continuous recording, that is they re-write over the sd card when it gets full. Only video worth keeping is the last one recorded.
  10. When we stayed it was at the New Orleans West KOA. As you are driving to it you will say, "Hmmm! Do I really want to be in this area?" They do not have pull-throughs but the back-in were wide enough and the ground guide (at that time) was great. It is about 25 minutes from down town NO and the have a shuttle twice a day that will bring you to down-town. From what I have heard you do not want to be down-town at night - but that is hearsay.
  11. For what it's worth, I have to turn my "steps" off or the trickle charge will not keep up with the discharge rate. First six months of ownership of the MH the service batteries would keep dropping down to 11.x volts. Called Winnebago and they said that the step motor should be off. Never had a problem after turning the steps off and plugged into 110 v at storage unit.
  12. Wouldn't bother me as long as it is above 12' 4" (Think basement AC). If the sign says over "weight or" restricted and I'm over that weight I stay off. If it says "Trucks not allowed," then I'm cautious but I'm not a truck. Registrations says Recreational Vehicle. If I know the route I'm taking I'll use this web site AITA Online knowing that it is NOT all inclusive.
  13. A three point turn looks to be definitely out of the question. Talk about a highway to nowhere. There might be a "Dead End" sign just about 50 or more miles up the path.
  14. I have a 2008 and it does not have DEF, thank goodness.
  15. Welcome to FMCA and the forum PJ (Short for your handle). Nice looking ride. Herman hit it on the nail with journal. DW keeps one but we also keep all of our information in a Calendar (Think Apple Products but any calendar will do.) It has helped me when search for old RV haunts. Happy trails to you and the family.
  16. I have the Blue Ox Kar-Gard II (screen between MH and TOAD). Never noticed any new chips and dings but just driving down the highway in TOAD has caused some. Alos have chips on side where 18 wheeler's have thrown up grit.
  17. I do not have air leveling, just jacks. They have always been down during high winds, including hurricane condition 1. (We didn't get far enough away in evacuation) Antenna down, slide in on windy side. Better to find a Walmart, HD, Lowe's or mall and park on the leeward side if possible.
  18. Looks like you followed Google Maps.
  19. I have a 2008 Winnebago Destination and it does not have pass through....well, except for 8 inches at the top. That 8 inches is enough for folding chairs and other narrow items, like storage boxes. For the bottom of the compartment I put in those plastic drawers for some store. They are separate drawers but I have them stacked two high. It sure makes for easy organization. I do not leave my tow bar safety cables and other accessories on the tow bar. They all fit easily into one of those storage drawers. The bays under the slide when the slides are out can be a bit of a bend over and reach especially if someone were to have any joint problems. I have seen up close the full slide out drawers and my personal opinion is that there is more room for bigger items. Just my two cents worth.
  20. Oh my! It's a miracle? Praise be!
  21. Joe, details on make, model, etc., please.
  22. I have used "Goo-B-Gone" with good results on auto stickers.
  23. I did receive the complementary membership when I purchased my motorhome, and then renewed when time was up. I am on the 5 year plan also.
  24. Looking good. I also have mine back there and I use clear suction cups, real small for the front windshield on passenger side of coach. Works well for the front.
  25. I live too close to him and could almost hit him by throwing rocks. He has to be careful.
