NC Pulled Pork...Umm! Good!

What are you striving for, pulled pork??

Carl, you got the serious AFib??

Joe, isn't talking about heart problems sort of like being in the toilet? Carl, happy to hear not a major problem.

ROFL

Carl, all the best of prayers for you. Please don't bother the nurses...except as necessary.

I want to make centenarian!

Ray, we have two of those Techma Macerator toilets. Knock on wood we have not had any problems with them. They sure do use a lot of water. Somehow Winnebago decided that the grey tank should be 70 gallons and the black tank 55 gallons. My thinking is it should definitely be reversed. As it is now we can go about 3 days before dumping because of all the water that is used. I have the water level adjusted to just about a 1/4 inch above the throat opening. Yep, to much, and especially of the wrong type, TP can botch things up pretty quickly. I have a clear elbow on the end of the sewer line and take a look at it when I dump and so far just a liquid flows out, discolored a lot, but just liquid. You are lucky that you can climb and take care of problems like that. I have to get someone else to do it. I became an octogenarian this month. Bodily ability has changed considerably over the years.

We had no problem on it with a Montana fiver back in 2007, and a MH Towing in 2008 or 9. Others should be on in a little to give newer updates.

Great story to read but sure don't want to have to write about it. Curious, with that small a line I'm assuming you have macerator toilets. Is that right? I have two and wish one were the pedal dump. With that big plug loose and in the tank, did it dump okay? Only TP we will use is Angel Soft. I would have spewed coffee had you had to include that the pressure backed up when using the bladder and sent it into space with the roof and you needing washing. 😇

I would be very difficult for me to make a comparison as the only stabilizers I have ever had were Safe-T-Plus, once on my 2008 and just this past week on my 2015. Unlike the OP I found the Safe-T-Plus reduces wind from natural and 18 wheelers, The biggest aspect is the safety provided if there is a front end blow-out, and remember not to brake but to gently let up on the throttle,

Welcome Cathy and John, enjoy the forum. Small world, just might meet up someday.

BTW, if traveling on I-40 through TN, between Nashville and Knoxville is Monterey, TN, There is about a 4 year old campground called "Belle Ridge Retreat." This RV Park is laid out like RV parks should be considering it is hilly country, Withe even having the hills the pads are level with a few exceptions that TT's and 5'ers will have no problem with the little slope. The sires with the 25 X 50 feet cement pads are very near to level with no problem for big rigs. So if traveling through or just to spend a few nights, give it a try. Very peaceful and rustic.

Oh to be young again. Juy 5th I became an octogenarian

I have an update at This Link

Bill, so true. Been in a few straight-line winds and they are something else of being quick.

It is ntr a simple conversion. I had it done to this MH by Sats2go out of Houston. I think I remember around $350 and that included the kit. The LNB's need to be replaced and some distribution equipment needs to be installed inside if I remember correctly. If I don't someone will correct me I'm sure.

The cover that got ruined was factory cheapie. Replaced with a good MaxAir one. Cover was $64 and two days service calls and labor was $120. Feel blessed, for sure. One inch lower on that branch and I would have lost at least one AC.

You are welcome. Worth the trip. Part of the driving test is to see if it is pulling. Once it was adjusted on a flat level stretch I could release my hands (of course keeping them close to the steering wheel) and the MH just held it's course. I kidded with the technician that i was going to get up and make some coffee. Wonder why he said not to do that. All in fun of course.

Had the Safe-T-Plus IFS ZF steering stabilizer installed today. Working great. Posted info under chassis thread.

I posted this on another forum but not everyone go to "other' forums, so: Today was our install of Safe-T-Plus IFS ZF stabilizers. Took a little over an hour for them to install. Didn't time it but it was quick. The staff are THE BEST, with everyone so friendly. Pulled into Jellystone RV Park in Bremen and made the 10 minute trip this morning. Yep, you can boondock in their gated lot overnight..We just prefer hookups with this rig, If you do stay at Jellystone, turn left on Hwy 78 and go to Hwy 100 and turn left on 100, turn left on Golf Course Road. About a mile down on the left side will be Safe-T-Plus..go slow. That is their recommended route to get to them from Jellystone, Okay, here is a kicker for all you future, and recommended, Safe-T-Plus wannabe's. There are future plans for an RV park in the back of their facility. That is going to be such a boon to future customers. Again, FUTURE..not going to happen overnight. After our install today I took a ride with me driving and a technician riding with me. We dropped down to the interstate and I got up to our normal driving speed. We had a very slight pull to the right. Pulled off and on to an off ramp, technician got out and crawled under, made some adjustments and we were off again. One more of those and the MH was tracking puuurrrrfectly If you have the mind to, set up an appointment with Safe-T-Plus and get-'er-done. Well worth the investment and so much more worth for the safety.

My thoughts were that if a piece of steel is over the magnet and the outside toggle is on the step will be extended when time to go. Having two switches in parallel on inside and one outside give the options for both. There I go again, thinking out loud.

I just might be as smart as....never mind,

My Progressive PT-50C and now my PT-50X have saved me many times. I have had two replaced under warranty and they were very quick to respond. In one instance they sent me a brand new one instead of repairing the bad one. The first on was a fault of the Mfg when the seal at the entry to the protector was not seated correctly and water got in during a rain storm and it shut down, I most certainly used the VOM before plugging directly in. It was only for one day. I now have a spare in a bay...just in case, Don't leave home without it. Great device.

Put a small toggle switch under the step somewhere in reach and hook up the magnetic switch to it. With the piece of steel on the magnet when the switch is open..steps go out. when switch is engaged step goes in...might have to put one inside also.. Double pole double throw....just thinking out loud.
