  1. Isn't owning a RV such a wonderful learning experience. You also had the boss motivating you to "get the hot water working". Bill
  2. Thank you for your thoughts. I will check and see how tight to wind them. I am with you as I plan to use a little more tension. Doing ok, going camping at Choctaw KOA Wednesday. Bill
  3. You ar right Herman, just like some don't know there is no "park" in the allison transmission. Getting into the habit of doing it right and the same way will prevent a lot of problems. Not shure with Bill A's problem that sounds like a malfunction. Bill
  4. Yes I stayed there last summer. Best location for visiting Truman House and museum. Bill
  5. I have seen a couple cars roll when people disconnect and don't put it in park or use the parking brake. Not as bad as Bill's but it can happen if you arn't careful. Bill
  6. Isaaac, I think you have some good ideas. We do need more advocacy for us the traveling public. Some places get it and some need a little help and some need lots of help. I think having a "blueprint" would be good especially in areas like Fort Worth Dallas area that is growing so fast. If the planners had an idea they could incorporate that in the plans not try to add it later when there is no room and it would cost more. Bill
  7. It's not that far only about 265 miles. Or about the distance between Washington DC and Bridgeport Connecticut. When I go down to Pharr Texas it is a little longer 508 miles. Bill
  8. Not only cold beer but frozen ice cream and all the ice cubes you can use. Bill
  9. I didn't want to put him, down in Florida. obedb, That was an expensive lesson but I might have got learned something from dat. For close range I like my Marlin guide gun in 45-70. Bill
  10. I talked to them at Chandler and they wanted much more than that to replace 3 toppers. The RVGeeks love them (Tough Top) But I was looking for anyone else who has done business with them. I am just looking for the fabric as I will change them myself, well with a little help. Good to know how tight to wind the spring as one topper disappeared in the wind when we were caught in the blizzard in Amarillo The first of May. Bill
  11. This is a dry graphite film and will not attract dirt. That is why I use it on the towbar. Bill
  12. You might want to give them a write up on this web site. http://www.rvservicereviews.com/StateList.asp?state=TX Bill
  13. Come on down to Texas. You can use your favorite toy to put some pork on the grill. Bill
  14. Looking for any feedback on Tough Top Awning people? I need to replace my slide toppers. one is gone and the outher 2 are going. Bill
  15. I wonder if using a dry film lube would work. I use one I buy at the local John Deere dealer. It is the best dry film graphite colloid I have found. I use it on the pins in the tow bar to reduce wear. https://www.amazon.com/John-Deere-Equipment-Lubricant-TY25797/dp/B00BR24IEO Bill
  16. Just like I said, every unit is different. Read and follow the instructions in the owner's manual. Back to the OPs problem. He has low batteries so/as he hasn't told us if he has shore power. the easiest way to charge the batteries is to start the generator. If he has low voltage he may need to start his main engine to be able to start the generator even using the battery switch. Bill
  17. I have looked at upgrading and I see enough burned coaches to make changing the refrigerator a top priority / must have. I see more coaches with a residential refrigerator as original equipment. Bill
  18. That was my assumption but till It is confirmed it is a SWAG. Bill
  19. I hope the OP gets back to us. My thought, as you know Carl all these coaches are set up differently. If he has low batteries geting the generator running should i, charge the batteries and 2, provide 12v Power for the slide. I am supposed to have the engine running to operate the slides. Some you can't run the main engine. Bill
  20. Please add your motorhome to your signature as without knowing what you have I can't give good advice. Moving the mounting points only works on the F-53 that has the 2 different points. Inspect your bushings and if worn replace with polypropylene ones as they are firmer. Bill
