    Hi Bill.  We are leaving on 6/8 and thinking it will take 3 days.  Thank you for responding.

    How long do you have to make this trip? I think 3 days in a car would be optimistic. First trip in a RV I don't think so. First of all I would plan on a short driving day the first couple of days. 150-200 miles make shure you have a place to stay reserved so you can get in get set up when it is still light and relax. Learning a new rig is stress full and tiering even if you have had one before. Getting into a place and setting up in the dark while being exhausted from driving takes a lot of the fun out of travel. I have found that 50 mph is about what you average on a travel day. You might be driving 70 but add in fuel stops and rest stops and lets not forget traffic slowdowns. You will find you average about 50 mph. So Yes go re read what elkhartjim said to.

    Let me know

    At certain intersections with no traffic signal I can't tell what's coming from my right. How do I correct this?

    You know how long it takes to make the turn so don't turn till you have enough distance and time from on coming traffic to make the turn. If there isn't a good sight line don't turn there. Go to a light or where you can see/ have time to make the turn.

    When I replaced it with a new fuse the light at the foot of the stairs went on for a second and then the fuse immediately blew out.

    I would take the light fixture out and look at it and test it.

    Wanting to see what AWG cable size is recommended when adding additional 6 volt batteries to an existing battery set. Currently have two 6 volt 210ah batteries that need replacing and I want to add two more. I fully understand the series/parallel wiring arrangement needed for the four batteries, but have no clear idea whether to go with 2 AWG, 4 AWG other sized cables for the new connections involved. What’s the best selection?

    I would use the same as what is in there now.

  5. The snow in the park and around Williams mostly melted. But they had enough to close I-10 over by Flagstaff for a while. I am glad I could stay an extra day. 

    In ABQ tonight at Enchanted Trails RV Park & Trading Post. The owner collects cars and vintage RVs. He also rents out some of the old trailers so you can stay in them. One I like is a old Hudson and proper period trailer hoked up ready to go.

    Headed to Amarillo tomorow.
