I do think it is a good time to trade up. He can get a much better price for his current rig and still get a decant price on a new one. For example some people I know who are RV Texas Y'all, you tube channel, who just traded up. https://www.youtube.com/c/Rvtexasyall/videos. I think they got good price (as good as any outher time for a custom ordered coach) and sold their old coach for what they payed for it. Bill

I would also look at 2 12V Lithium Ion battery's to replace the 6Volt one's. Bill

Well if you want new I recommend talking to NIDRVC https://www.nirvc.com/Sales?start=0&fq=status%3AAvailable Bill

We got to do something fun today, we got a tour of the Eagle in Portland harbor today. https://www.uscga.edu/about-eagle/ Hope the RV Mutants have a great time. Bill

Looks a lot like the one I had on my Bounder. I would look for any numbers on it or cast into the back of it. I would also take pictures to all the home improvement stores and specialty wood working shops. Let us know what you find. Bill

If it was low on coolant it may still be purging air from the system. I agree with Carl. New thermostat and cap would be good. Bill

sounds like some of the fasteners that hold the refrigerator in place may have come loose. Look under it and from the outside acess to find them and tighten them up. Let us know what you find. Bill

I agree with Carl. Bill

12.8V is a fully charged battery. 13.8v +/- is charging voltage. Bill

The key is to do it before you bring in the slides. Bill

Well that's good news. Bill

Welcome to the forum. Where are you and where do you want to hang out? I would start calling places ahead of time. The old days of just showing up and expecting to get what you want may be over. As you are full time I would guess you want to spend the winter season in the south. The problem is the majority of good places are already filled. I would start talking to places now. There is a lot of places so you should find some place. Let us know what you find. Bill

What does it power? Bill

Welcome to the forum. Yes and make shure the ATS is switching to the generator. Bill

Well how much is showing on the tank gage? The only way to git fresh water on the roof would be hooking up to the "black tank flush" then it wouldn't be to fresh. Something to do before putting the slides in is to raise one end of the coach to drain any water off the tops of the slides. My last coach taught me to do that. If you put the slides in and it tipped down in the front it would pore water down over you in the drivers seat. It was always cold. Bill

Welcome to the forum. Many people have had that problem. One thing you can do is add insulation and sound deadening material to the engine compartment. Look at places like this for ideas. https://www.summitracing.com/search?SortBy=BestKeywordMatch&SortOrder=Ascending&keyword=Sound deadening material Bill

Yes it could be not closing all the way or leaking past. Try moving the valve back and forth a few times to see if it seals. Bill

Congratulations! That is a good reason to stick around. Bill

Welcome to the forum. Bill

I would think that Escapees location in Livingston, TX would be a good place to do that because they are far enough outside Houston that the traffic at that DMV location would be less also they are use to dealing with full timers. Bill

We were in that area 2 weeks ago. We stayed at Maple Ridge Campground. It was just a overnight and a little off the main drag but it was what was open/alible. Bill

Welcome to the forum. Now lets go camping. There are so many things to see and do on the road. Bill

I would look realey hard at Texas and Escapees. https://www.escapees.com/. I have heard few complaints about anything including the mail service. Bill

I don't know what he was striving for but I bet it was good. Bill

I am a slide junkie. I have had slides and won't go back. Bill
