  1. Yes that is a good idea. The only problem is people have different ideas on how things should taste. One tool is Yelp for finding places or one I like is when we are exploring a new town and looking in different shops is to ask the people "If you were going to go eat well where would you go and I don't mean Mickey D." The locals have pointed us to some amazing places. You will get different responses if it is lunch or supper. One of my all time favorites, The 7th street Chafee in ABQ is one of them. A great lunch place is Woerner Warehouse Café in Fredericksburg Texas. Or Pasta Jay's 4 S Main St, Moab, UT. Main street BBQ in Euless Texas. Bill
  2. Please give me the place where I can do that. That is cheaper for new wheels than stainless wheel simulators. Bill
  3. That is why I said to get setup with a EZ-Pass before you go. It makes life a lot easier, you can in many places not have to go through the toll lanes or stop at the toll booth's. Get one for your car for the same reason. Bill
  4. Strange I went and looked this up. Look up how many axels, most likely either 4 or 5. I have never gone South on the GW but on the Tappan Z it is free. https://www.panynj.gov/bridges-tunnels/tolls.html Bill
  5. Not shure where you are hearing the toll on the GW is $0.75 but the last time I paid it the toll was $76.00 with out a EZ-Pass. I don't know what it is with because I haven't gone back across since I got my pass. The Tappan Z is about $26.00 with out a EZ-Pass. I would highly recommend you get a EZ-Pass before your trip it will save you money and is more convent to use. Get one for your car and one for the coach. When towing the car put the pass in the bag they give you and put it in the glove compartment so it isn't read. You are charged a lesser toll than if you disconnected and drove the toad separate from the Coach. Any questions just ask. Bill
  6. Quite a change as we had ben in Palladio Canyon until we heard the front was coming. The rangers were warning people they may be stuck in the canyon for a couple of days. That is why we moved to Oasis, it was warm and sunny till late Friday afternoon. Bill
  7. I don't know why the record I found doesn't match the reported local news nor my observations. Next time I will make a video of the local news and weather. The snow started on Friday evening the 28 APR and was over by Monday the first. https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/usa/amarillo/historic?month=4&year=2017 I must have ben delusional. Bill
  8. I was staying at Oasis RV park on I-40 on the West side of Amarillo on 4-29 of last year. They had a storm come in where they shut I-40 down. I was glad I had a spot as there were trucks everywhere and no place for them. I believe the wind gust were over 75mph. Hear is a picture looking out at the nice weather. timetraveler said "Don't want to repeat that again. On I 40 west of Feet Worth according to our GPS, we ,have seen many semis headed east usually, on their side or top, from the wind, in that 20 mile stretch or so. Most right as a slight inside curve on the east bound side is encountered." Well actually I-40 doesn't go through Fort Worth. There is a section of I-287 from where it splits off I-35W going North West to Amarillo that is known for being dangerous because it is slightly elevated and exposed to wind gust. That is for about 10 miles from the I-35W split. Bill
  9. Welcome to the forum and being new Bounder owners. You can find more info hear about Bounders of America. www.bounder.org/ I think there is a Bounder chapter not far from you. When heading north it is recommended not to cross the Hudson on the George Washington Bridge right obedb. Bill
  10. They have ben showing on the news that Rockport and that area still have a long way to go before they are back to where they were. We have stayed at Lagoons RV Resort a couple of times before the storm. Hope they are getting it straitened up. The big problem is that whole area is only 12" above the ocean at the hi spots. Hear is a picture of the water pushing into the parking lot where we were eating lunch on time. Bill
  11. You will like Freeport Besides Bean there are lots of outlet stores and good places to eat. Like Gritty McDuff's Freeport Brew Pub. If you like good baked goods check out When Pigs Fly Sourdough Breads. https://www.visitfreeport.com/ Bill
  12. Jo, do the low cal lobsters turn red when you cook them. We have stayed at Wilde Duck just up the coast and down at Moody Beach. The big problem is finding an opening during the summer. Bill
  13. Welcome to the forum. I was worried about ride when I replaced my tires as I went up to a H from G. Haven't had any problems and they ride fine. If you add your coach and some other info to your Signature it will help to get better answers when you ask questions. Where are you located? Bill
  14. It is their main store and a couple other stores including the outlet store. The main store is open 24/7/365 any time you walk through the door there will be some one asking how they can help. Bill
  15. I was in Main last summer at Blueberry Pond Campground out behind Freeport. It was cool enough I was glad to visit LL Bean's and pick up some warmer clothes. Bill
  16. I am sending you some cooler weather in a day or so. Bill
  17. If you have any questions I would ask "The Governor of the Valley" TBUTLER. Bill
  18. Now I am starting to see all the fun I am missing. I am awfully glad MH of T sold that old Newell of Rusty Wallace's But it was older and might not have all the bells and back up horns. I could still keep it plugged in 6 hr. a day. But I would need to add a timer as I have 50A at the ranch. I wish the op would come back and talk to us about his new coach. Bill
  19. I would try calling Winnebago and see if they can tell you. I would have my serial number handy. Bill
  20. Last spring we were headed to Chandler AZ. The winds in west Texas were blowing fairly hard but not enough to slow me down. I didn't think they were all that bad till we came out from under a overpass and the small "C" ahead of me changed lanes from the wind. It just buffeted us a little but not bad. That is some thing to note overpasses can create a venture effect with the wind. This will make it dangerous for a small Vehicle. Bill
  21. You Newmar guys and your toys. I thought it might be something but with all the new stuff on the forum I wasn't shure. Bill
  22. Carl, be carful and don't get into any wagers those Cajun's are looking for you. Bill
  23. Welcome to the forum. Why do you only have power for 6h/d? I assume that's 6hours a day. Help us out hear please put your coach and info in your signature. See Brett's as a example. With out more info I can't do anything but guess. I would like to say 6 hours would be enough to keep the battery's up if they were up to start with. Have you checked to see if your charger is working with the inverter off? Have you checked to see f your battery's are getting a charge when turned off? Let us know By the way what is a 2015 DS? Bill
