In Texas Bourne, TX is pronounced Burnie. What say you.

As Carl pointed out, 190. I'd take that all the way to Covington and then drop down to I-12.

Sorry, I didn't see this thread until now. Progressive is my go to insurance for the RV. thinking of switching my car insurance to them also. My previous 2008 MH had hail damage and Progressive paid the $19,000 new roof without any type of squabble. That same MH about 3 or 4 years later got totaled by Hurricane Harvey. Progressive paid me what I paid for it, no squabble. When I say what I paid for it - NO depreciation. That gave me the full value I declared when I purchased it. Nice down payment on my present one. Present MH had mouse damage. First time in 14 years parked at the storage unit. Crap happens. Progressive did ask questions and the important one was "Did you check on your MH at least every two weeks." Yes, we did and still do. Yep, Progressive would be my go to answer.

I'm just expressing a choice. Wherever anyone would like to go to purchase anything is not a big deal to me. Yes, I do believe in supporting the organizations that we belong to. I don't think Kiley makes plates anymore but they sure do make the brackets. I don't know if FMCA offers that same commodity. Research is the key to purchasing anything.

So what are we trying to say here Richard. To me, Kiley Mold is a good product and I still support them. Who has the contract with FMCA, and just what does that mean? The brackets are still sold through Kiley Mold.

Web site still in business

Kiley Mold is still in business whether FMCA uses them or not.

Herman, if you want to get to Galveston, or go from Galveston home, I can give you an easy drive route that you will never touch Houston, or it's outskirts. Find your way down 77 to 10E and 24 miles to Hwy 36S in Sealy. Travel towards Rosenbug and when you see Spur 10 (Right turn) take it around Rosenburg and reconnect to Hwy 36. About 14 or 15 miles down the road pick up FM 1462E towards Alvin. When you get to Alvin, cross over Hwy 35 and turn left on 35N Alvin Bypass. About 2 miles up the road turn right onto Hwy 6S and follow it to I-45 just before the bridge into Galveston. Might be a tad longer and have some red lights, but a more relaxing ride than the freeways. Reverse if traveling home. If you stop in Galveston for any period of time you had better call me. I'll pm you my phone number.

77 miles to Galveston - where are you coming from. Not Whitewrite TX. That's 369 miles. If you are coming down 45 you will pass within 8 miles of our place.

We cancelled our trip to the North this year. If things quiet down we'll go someplace later on. Herman, only seven sites where you are going. Nice little park. I'd want site 1 or site 5 with 1 being back in so grass was on door side and 5 being pull-in and again with door on grass side. Very little space in the other ones. Do they have FHU?

They most certainly are, but you had better not tell them that!

In the 10 mile rural triangle it will reset itself until the next ten mile run down the road. 🙂👿

Dolly parking. (Not the singer)

As JIm stated, google the information on the plate sticker. When my Kwikee step went out in our previous MH the RV companies wanted about $250+ dollars for the motor. I got a brand new motor from a place in CA for $79. Maybe the motor can be rebuilt by an armature shop.

In my former 2007 Saturn I went about a mile or so and was wondering if I had taken it out of reverse. Stopped, checked and nope it was in reverse. Put it in neutral, started it and when through the procedure of drive, reverse, neutral. I never had a problem with that car or transmission. I always set the tow bar by backing up when hooking. If one side doesn't catch I turn the steering wheel in that direction and pull the MH ahead a few feet. Earlene stands and gives me a thumbs up when it engages.

When finished at Bill's place there are many CG's around here and I'll come stay next to you for a demonstration of your abilities. Oh, looking good and yes, stay safe.

Herman! Surprised that you don't know what the test is for. Must be an age thing. 🙂

Since we have two sides, tipping ca cause the water on the up-side to possibly stay on the slide. So, I now raise the front up a few inches and let the water drain off the back side. You do need tight toppers though, or either method will just have the water still puddling in the middle. Some people put beach balls under the toppers to raise the center. I've never done that, nor do I think I will.
