  1. Look at this one. https://cedarcreekresort.org/rvpark/ Download https://www.campgroundreviews.com/ https://www.rvparky.com/ Bill
  2. Welcome to the forum Zilpha. Hopefully for a transmission cooler. See if there is room for a fan on the front of the radiator. Look at these coolant additives. https://www.summitracing.com/search/part-type/coolant-additives?GroupBy=ProductName&SortBy=Default&SortOrder=Ascending I don't think that will be a problem. Make shure your trailer is fairly level. I don't want to say it won't work but you are definitely at the max. When you add food water (maybe just a few gallons so you can use your bathroom on the road) outher equipment, well it adds up fast If you do upgrade I would highly suggest a 3/4 and a diesel. So in a year or three when you want to upgrade you will not have to upgrade the tow vehicle. The type of trailer isn't going to make that much difference, it is weight. Bill
  3. Hay Puff old buddy. Can you drop buy and demonstrate how you did such a great job? I will social distance. Bill
  4. All the black tank flush lines should already have a check valve. Bill
  5. Look at the left inboard corner of the forward compartment. I can't see well enough to be shure. Get the part number and order it from Amazon. I have seen them at Walmart. Bill
  6. I think Ross hit the main points. You could have a check valve on the line from the tank to the pump to keep it from doing that. I had to smile when I saw your hookup to flush the black tank. My only concern would be not enough preshure to be effective and using filtered water for that purpose. There are some germ phobic people who will be sanitizing their screen. Let us know what you find out. Bill
  7. My toppers were always fairley tight and didn't have a problem with water on the topper but it will still get under it on top of the slide. I have found adding a couple leveling blocks under the jacks makes shure you get all the water off. Bill
  8. What Ken said reminded me f something. Pull the front of the thermostat off and see if there is a fuse there. Pull it out and check it. I know you can check it installed but pulling it out does a reset on the system. I have fixed several weird electrical problems this way. Bill
  9. On my last RV it said to level then slides. This was on a Freightliner chassis. This makes the most sense to me as you have to be level for the absorption refrigerator. Why go through the work of getting the slides out if you can't get level enough for the refrigerator and may need to move. I still do it that way in the Newmar. On the subject of water getting in. I learned early on to tilt the coach to drain any water off the top of the slide. The first time it happened it had rained the night before we were leaving a campground up in Ohio. Got the slides in and ready to go. We were parked at the top of a little hill and when pulling forward to get out the front drivers side slide pored a couple of quarts of cold water on my head and down my back. I now have a checklist item to drain the slides. Bill
  10. I will let you. Every time you make a suggestion or propose something that they didn't think of they run and hide. and I am being argumentative? See the July 8 post, 10 days ago and no response from D.Ball or smithy. zimmeral, welcome to the forum. You are right.
  11. I think defrost is the default any time it looses or doesn't have vacuum. Bill
  12. Don, at this point it is hard to tell if there is any serious damage especially from this side of the keyboard. Now if the water was only half way down and not completely dry it might come back and work ok. Yes you probably took some of the overall life off the battery. As others have said try topping it off and charging them up and see how it holds a charge. With it being fairly new it might be ok. Bill
  13. I would definitely go by and talk to National Indoor RV Centers 11280 N Solar Canyon Way, Surprise, AZ 85379, 520-442-2500, https://www.nirvc.com I bought my Mountain Aire from them and it was GREAT experience. Bill
  14. Who/what Newmar dealers are you talking to? I have a 08 Mountain Aire 4523. Bill
  15. I have the 315/80 22.5 on all 8. I like the look of the 365/80r Steer. I wonder if they would fit on my MA. Bill
  16. Yes the website implies it is a installed price. I guess I will never know. Bill
  17. I haven't been able to figure out how they can give such big discounts when prices are so low. I did some Googling and found this from Jul 2, 2018. http://blog.opisnet.com/retail-gasoline-diesel-prices-spring-2018 This gives you an idea of the margins stations run on. This will help you understand the terminology in the charts and articles. http://blog.opisnet.com/wholesale-rack-fuel-pricing-essentials It would be interesting to know what stations Ken got the big discounts. Bill
  18. Yes Carl, did you look at that website? The 8 new 315/80r BFG's were 5,960.00 and 8 Michelin tires was $ 7,795.00. Bill
  19. I think Jim has a good idea. I also think they need a real mecanic. Bill
  20. Please show me where you are seeing all this savings? The cheapest BFG is $910.00 the matching Michalan is $1120.00 This is for a 315 80R-22.5. When I put 275 80R-22.5 Continentals on my outher diesel pusher they were $505.00 out the door. So show me the savings I may not be reading it right. Bill
  21. I would look at M4 products for replacement LED lights. https://m4products.com/ I have bought some LED stuff from Amazon. Bill
  22. So Ken what size were the tires and what load range? Bill
