  1. Why the kneejerk reaction? What has changed? What will change? When? I see this whole vote as a big NOUTHING BERGER. No large group of towable owners are waiting to get in so what is going to change? 80%+ of current members don't go to the rally's or belong to local chapters now. The big problem as with any club of this type is recruiting and keeping new members. The management has failed to do a good job of finding new members to replace the ones in this aging demographic. They have failed to get the info in front of younger people who own or will own RV's. The whole Energize theme needs to be expanded. I think there have ben several great suggestions offered in this thread. Personally I think each member could do more in that area. It is you who are in the campgrounds who can talk to new people. It is at the local, chapter where the most growth can be achieved. I challenge you to quit wining about the current situation and do something about it. Set a goal for next year to recruit one new member each month. Think about this for motivation. Every one you recruit will be (most likely) a like minded RV owner. The more like minded members we have the more control we will have over the future and direction of the club. Bill
  2. I agree, I bought the little device to lock my portable. I but if the truth was known most of the "thefts" were some one left the surge guard plugged into the pedestal. Bill
  3. Carl, have another cup of coffee and think about it. I think you were trying to say use hydrogen peroxide not bleach (Clorox is a brand of bleach). Bill
  4. I use CoPilot there are a lot of customizable settings including height. I use the base program as I have heard of problems with the RV specific one. One benefit is you can down load maps over your WIFI and you don't use as much data when on the road. Bill
  5. Where are you located? As I posted earlier I am happy with my new Continentals. I saved over $100.00 off what the Michelin would have ben at the discount price. I had a hard time finding some one that understood the program or who could get tires. Bill
  6. Yes it is normal. Home gas furnaces have made big gains in efficiency over the years. RV furnaces not so much. Bill
  7. Welcome to the forum. One thing many forget to do is to Put your climate control system in recirculated air mode to prevent exhaust fumes from entering your vehicle. "does it put mileage on the vehicle?" No it does not put miles on the odometer. I don't recall the need t pull any fuses. Towing behind a Motorhome is detailed in depth starting on page 285 of your owners manual. Bill
  8. 12 whole days that's a long time. I bet it feels like a long long time to ISP JS. Bill
  9. How many days now till you get it? Bill
  10. Welcome to the forum. Yes need more info to give the best answer. Bill
  11. In an earlier post you said it was the only GF in the coach. Have you looked in the wet bay for one? Bill
  12. When you buy replacement bolts get at least "grade 6" Some of the ones used by the factory, Well lets just say they aren't the best. Bill
  13. I set my pressure cold and don't care if it warms up. Having the extra 10# will help protect you if the temperature drops. I would be much more worried about running on underinflated tires than ones set properly when cold and go up because of temperature increases. Bill
  14. I replaced my start batteries 2 years ago with OEM group 31 batteries from thee local Freightliner store. I asked last month and they still had them on sale for $69.95 each. 925 CCA at 0* and 1110 at 32* They seam to be holding up. Bill
  15. Welcome to the forum. I have heard the map program would drain a battery pretty fast. I thought about getting it but it came as a "package" that was way to much for something I had on phone and on my tablet free. Bill
  16. Welcome to the forum. I hate to tell you that this just won't do. We need details. Nice coach by the way. Also if you put your coach and some other info in your signature you will get better answers when you ask questions. Bill
  17. That isn't that bad of gas mileage. You won't loose much towing. I would talk to Bully Dog and see if they have a application for you. Make shure they know it is for a motorhome not a pickup. Let us know what you find out. Bill
  18. No problem for a stepper. Let us know what you find. Bill
  19. Welcome to the forum. That is why I have never stayed there. Bill
  20. Welcome to the forum. I am towing a 2014 CR-V all wheel drive. You need to do/repeat the initial set up after 8 hours. I often start my car when we stop for lunch and before pulling out do the set up. (don't forget to pump your brakes to deplete the brake boost when you do this or when you do your initial set up to tow) I do run it through all the gears and GO INTO NEUTRAL FROM DRIVE ONLY or you will damage the transmission. I don't pull the fuse and haven't had the battery go dead. Well ok one time when we stopped over night in the rain and I didn't turn the car off. But other than that if you have any questions just ask. Bill
  21. Congratulations, now you need to update your signature. Bill
  22. Where are you talking about trimming? Where it goes into the receiver on the coach? That won't get you any where because the top receiver is hitting the coach and won't allow you to move the hole forward to pin up. Carl, how does that help the OP. He already has the part. Bill
  23. Like Herman said the plug on the hot water heater is easy to remove. I am pretty shure it is plastic. Be shure to turn the hot water heater off first. This is a good time to flush all the sediment out of the bottom of the hot water tank. You should have low point drains for both hot and cold in the area by the water pump or in the wet bay not far from the city water connection. Bill
