Apparently this has been out for a while but I haven't heard about it so I thought I would pass it on. Continental, one of the largest automotive suppliers and tire manufacturers in the world, has released the industry’s first complete tire line with an embedded tire pressure management system (TPMS) sensor. https://www.continental-truck.com/truck/company/newsroom/100418-conticoachha3 Bill

Ran across this and thought I would share. See what the guys at Motor Trend think about a New Airstream Flying Cloud. https://www.motortrend.com/cars/ram/1500/2021/airstream-flying-cloud-first-test-review/ Bill

In the area I grew up (western NY on lake Erie) the average snowfall was 157". But I like to watch it on TV. Bill -
How can I protect my toad from road damage?
wildebill308 replied to jon48's topic in Toads-Towed Behind Motorhome
But what if the front of your toad is covered in love bugs and dirt and you miss some chips. Wouldn't that mess up your evidence? I do think the big wide mud flaps/advertising if adjusted wrong can flip dirt and gravel up onto your toad. I had to take mine off because I hit a big chunk of tire and bent it. But I have payed close attention to them since I have one now. Many are not adjusted right and drag at low speed but at hi way speed they blow back at about a 45 degree angle so they arn't doing much to protect the toad. Bill -

Still what's your point. How do you prove the chips happened when driving or when towing? Bill -
BData, Welcome to the forum. Yes, it's time for new tires. If you are not having any problems with the 315s I would stick with them. You can look at this comparator to see the differences. Riley not much, 1.2" taller and 0.8" wider. https://tiresize.com/comparison/ Bill

Well I hope you are enjoying your morning drive. If it is bothering you you are probably on the road. If you put your RV information in your signature it will get you more accurate answers. See Carl's and Joe's. Bill

Looking good. Bill

First, welcome to the forum. Yes many forget that little detail. Bill

Carl, I think this is some kind of urban/internet legend "if you tow something behind your RV it will be damaged". My question is what about when you are not towing? Does damage accrued then not count? How do you know when that rock chip happened? Bill -

I have been towing a 2014 CR-V since new and I can find no damage to it caused by towing. I have towed it behind 2 different diesel pushers. One had a full with mud flap and one didn't. So I am not a fan of the extra expense and complexity when towing. Bill -
looking for financing options on used MH in the 300k range

Welcome to the forum. What my credit score and credit history is doesn't matter. The only thing that matters is yours. If you want to know what the interest rates are call and ask the different lenders. Bill -

Welcome to the forum. I have a 50amp power pedestal tester. It is called a Surge Guard It monitors power 24/7. Hearer is a link to a description. I don't plug in without it. I like the portable ones so I can Cheick outher pedestal's if I need to without moving the coach. https://rvpower.southwire.com/products/surge-protection/50a-portable-model-34850-with-lcd-display/ Bill -

Get better soon. Bill -
I seriously doubt a 2008 Safari Simba shipped from the factory without a inverter to power the icemaker and a couple more outlets like the microwave, TV, and a couple of outlets, at least one in the bathroom and in the bead room. Pretty easy to test. Bill

I used Huntington when I bought my Mountain Aire. They had the best rate. https://www.huntington.com/ Bill -
So if you had a ice maker and it worked on propane you had a inverter from the factory. All the icemakers are 120 AC. The plug where the ice maker was plugged in was where I plugged my residential refrigerator on my last 2003 Bounder. Bill

Welcome to the forum. I would think that would be more to do with the efficiency of the solar panels rather than the batteries. But then it all has to work together. Bill
-
Did the icemaker work before when running the the refrigerator on propane and not pugged in or on generator? Bill

patrickjmcardle, welcome to the forum. I would drain the coolant into a clean container and pull the plug and inspect both it and the receptacle carefully with a good light. Some one may have cross threaded the plug before. I had a leak on my last coach where someone had used the wrong thread plug. Also look for cracks where the drain enters the tank.
