  1. What campground? US-90 runs right through Houston, and you could be in several of the cities South of there. Email me if you need to keep it on the QT.
  2. Rich, it might help if we knew what campground. On the other side: have you done the reset on the electronic controller?
  3. In regards to the OP, pay the fine just in case you travel through that state again. If you don't pay the fine there will be a warrant out for your arrest and that can cost you a bundle in the end.
  4. Prior to having a 50 amp service put in I ran off of 120v in my prior 2007 Montana 5th wheel. I ran 1 AC with no problems. We learned quickly that if DW want to run the vacuum cleaner the AC needs to go off. I used the shortest 12 gauge cord I could from the garage outlet to the RV and used the 50 to 120v adapter. What worked for me may or may not work for you. As Brett stated, measure the voltage with the AC load on it and if it is above 108v you should not have a problem. Also, check with your hand at the power connections for excessive heat. If it is hot to the touch, stop using it. It will not take long to heat up if there is a problem, just monitor it.
  5. I would suggest reading Article 2 and 3 of the UCMJ. It's online. Also. Army and Air Force can be retired after 20 years. Navy and Marine Corps are transferred to the Fleet Reserves and after 30 years. retired. In all probability a member would not be recalled but it has happened in the past. If it is a crime against National Security then a recall and punishment under the UCMJ would most likely happen.
  6. Five, that is absolutely true, but it does not apply to my original post as the post refers to prosecution under the UCMJ. Doesn't mater how long one has been out. My personal opinion is that the mention of being recalled to active duty should not have been part of that article.
  7. What he said. Now go out and buy a six pack of beer with the savings and relish the moment. I just love it when a plan comes together.
  8. This does present some serious problems as well. Convictions by civil authorities can cause you to lose retirement benefits. Drunk driving while retired? Smoking marijuana where it is illegal? Adultery after retirement? Disrespect to the President? Just to name a few. Military Retirees subject to UCMJ
  9. Whether DTV or DISH, they all have their problems. I switched from DTV many many moons ago to DISH and never regretted it. Now I have the Hopper 3 at home and it is capable of recording 16 channels simultaneously. I can't watch that many channels so we just record a few we like. As for local channels when on the road, and I have the Wally receiver for the MH. It is not as robust as the Hopper 3 but serves our purpose. We pay an additional $7.00 a month to have the Wally in the MH and we can turn it off for the months we don't use it. Lorne, consider asking to speak with a supervisor and when push comes to shove tell them you will not consider moving to DISH Network. That usually starts some kindling smoldering and you may get what you want, a switch of all to one account. Good luck.
  10. Try looking at a GM Windcruiser. They have a protrusion on the back that may fit the bill. I"m at Fort Sam Houston and we have one in the park.
  11. The article had me worried there at the beginning as I was wondering how thr DEF in the tank would be affected. I find it strange that DEF stored in its original container is affected but DEF in the vehicles DEF tank is not.
  12. Ha ha! I've fooled them several times. Our CC company issues us two cards, one for me, one for her. The numbers are different but the account is the same. They did this i case a card was lost or stolen then they could stop that card and the other would be good until new cards could be issued. I like the policy. So when my card fills up at the pump I use the other card with a different number. it is not the CC company but the vendor. Don't ask a clerk as they have no idea.
  13. Do you have a model number on the 3rd generation OTA adapter?
  14. Maker of slide out. Controller model of slide out. All would be helpful in trying to give you some help. We may have a different model MH but we may have the same slideout mechanism and controls.
  15. How do you raise the tire(s) of the ground. Not with the leveling system I hope.
  16. Qualquer um pode escrever português e lê-lo. Alos norueguê One does have to watch out for big hammers though,
  17. Regardless of who or how, make sure your better half is with you when you hide your own Easter Eggs, or you may never find them. Happy Easter!
  18. That's a good route Carl. More than one way to get there.
  19. At my age Happy Hour is a nap. Twomcool, You probably have your trip planned out but if you are taking your time. Here is one way to avoid Houston, although I personally don't feel it is that bad to drive through Houston. Pick up Hwy 105 in Beaumont, TX and follow it all the way to Navasota, TX. In Navasota take Hwy 6 south to Hempstead, then Hwy 159 to Bellville, and then 36 to I-10. For those that don't like city driving the 105 route is much less stressful. Where will you be staying in SA? Congratulations on winning.
  20. Many years ago we went with my in-law to Blanco State Park. Nice park. Don't think it can accommodate my 43 footer though. Carl, what happens if you need some thing on the roof replaced, do they come back out for free to touch it up>
  21. We leave for Miller Creek RV Park on the 14th and will be there until the 25th, then SA for 10 days or so.
  22. Get one that's fresh road kill. It is flatter and can be folded up and put in a smaller pot.
  23. It's like any insurance, be happy to have it when you need it and be darned if you don't have it and need it. Our last MH was very costly for us and the ESP people. For us 'cause we had to pay the premium. Costly for them because we had a lot of repairs. The problems most will have of squirreling away money in case of a break down is the availability of that money for a rainy day. Five years from now that cruise to the Bahamas could come up and then say, "What the heck, I have never needed it and I can build it up again." Well it's a 50/50 chance that something will or will not go wrong. Personally, I have one and it includes gaskets and seals.
  24. The tunnels are a major concern. The web site for the Blue Ridge Parkway Tunnels gives good information. They used to provide a ranger to stop the flow of traffic so higher vehicles could use the center of the tunnel. I don't think they do that anymore and advise to detour around the tunnel. Check the web site.
  25. You are welcome. One way to see what RV Parks are in the area is to google that area. Then, in the google "Search The Web" box put in "RV Parks." It will not be all-inclusive and may have some hotel/motel listing but it is a good start for anywhere along your route. Also, Camp Ground Reviews is a good source of information. There are others that are apps, like rvparky. koa, allstays, etc. for planning. There are more in the Galveston area and using campgroundreviews.com will list them. If you have a specific question on any one park, give a holler.
