    Mike are you going to the Tampa RV show? Bill
  2. wildebill308
    Ok, then look at what Herman posted. Bill

    Are you shure it is the pump? I had the latching controller go bad and the pump wouldn't run. Bill
  4. wildebill308
    That is a hard standard to maintain. We were there a couple of times. Hope you can getaway more this year. Bill

    What are you looking for? Newer or pre 2008? Bill

    Now is it Alliance airport or the Dallas Fort Worth airport? Hearer is a good place by the DFW airport. https://www.vineyardscampground.com/ This one is a little further out up I-35W by the race track. https://www.northlakevillagerv.com/

    I would clean and lube the jack shafts and see if that helps. I have found that like outher systems in a RV it helps to exercise the jacks. Bill

    Welcome to the forum. I think Herman has the best idea. What RV is this? Bill
  9. wildebill308
    What part of town. There might be a spot to stay close by. Bill
  10. wildebill308
    Yes that's true with a lot of the "all wheel drive" /4 wheel drive cars. My CR-V is the same way. Bill

    Actually if you look carefully he does have a dolly and a tow bar. The tow bar is covered. Polmex, What make is the tow bar? Bill

    I didn't know FMCA had anything going on in Quartzsite? We were through there in mid Dec. "We will also be at the FMCA International Expo, Tucson (Pima County Fairgrounds) during March 2022." Looking forward to it. Bill

    Are you going to the big RV show in Tampa? Bill
  14. wildebill308
    Yes it was underpowered and under tested. Why would you need tread on the tires in snow and ice? Bill
  15. wildebill308
    Have you got to replacing shocks yet? Bill
  16. wildebill308
    Come on down! Lots of things to see and do. Where in Texas are the nieces and a nephew? Bill

    Found a video of a earley all weather RV and it even has a toad!
  18. wildebill308
    What did you put on? Bill

    Thanks Richard. My link should work to now. I can't believe all the hoops the dealers are expected to jump through to get the company's to fix what they didn't build right to start with. Seriously you have to ask permission to troubleshoot a problem. The absolute dumbest thing I have heard (from a reliable source at the Vagus rally in Dec.) was only the purchaser/customer could look at and report defects in paint and body items. It seems a Newmar customer who had mobility issues asked the head paint and body guy to inspect his new coach. Well it seems the paint guy was new and didn't know about Newmar's "ruel" so he did a good job for the customer and wrote up a couple pages of problem areas. Well Newmar whet ballistic and wanted to deny all warranty claims. Last I heard they had calmed Newmar down but that is still one of the top stupid things I have heard of. Bill

    There are always post about how hard it is to get warranty work done on new RVs. Now at least somebody is trying to change that problem. National Indoor RV Centers and their founder Brett Davis is working to Changing the Future of RV Service. Here is a interesting article about the subject. https://camperreport.com/nirvc-changing-the-future-of-rv-service/ Bill

    What is the voltage coming into the controller? Bill
  22. wildebill308
    Wayne, The outher problem is where are you going to go if all the areas around you are flooded. I chose to stay on the hi ground. I am an advocate of filling up before parking for that reason. Guess what I didn't do before Henri. Yes we had been down in Mystic Seaport and had no good places to fuel. I thought we could get by till we left on 1/2 tank. Well when it got close to 1/4 I went and bought a gas can and borrowed a couple more. Found a station open and added 20 gal to the tank. 8 hours later the power came back on. Might have made it without adding diesel but felt better having more. Bill
  23. wildebill308
    Well I will say I didn't think we had done this well till I got to adding it up. We did 21 different states. One thing that helped add states is after Gillett we went to Maine (Grand kids involved) it was easy to add states up there. We stayed at 51 campgrounds. We put 11,620 miles on the RV. I didn't cheack the milage on the CR-V but it tends to mimic the RV. when I kept track before. My wife feels the same as yours about dry camping. But what do you do if the power for the whole state goes out? We were at ground zero when Henri came ashore. It had weekend some but still took out the power in RI. We actually had 2 experiences with Hurricane level stormes. The second one ( I think it was Ida) was more troubling when we were in the Lancaster KOA was the storm was spawning tornadoes. Bill

    Here in the mid cites it was 71 at lunch and 34 at 6:pm. 21 at 9:am it is warming up. Bill

    It isn't that bad but mid December when I was in Van Nuys looking for gas I saw cheap diesel for $5.11 gas was $4.879. I made it back to AZ before I had to buy diesel. Almost makes me feel bad only paying $2.96 in Texas. Bill
