  1. Herman. That only works when you can move over, but when you have a coach on one side and a golf cart on the other...where do you go? If I would have been given the permission to remove my toad, it would never have happened to begin with and I would not be out $7,082! Carl
  2. You can change the setting of when to charge the batteries. If you run on Inverter while traveling then set it to 60%, at that % the generator should come on and recharge the batteries to 100% then turn off, When I'm on shore power, I dial my Select to 5 amps...keeps the engine batteries happy. Carl
  3. Herman. Yes, I do believe I remember! Not in my family... Kay. I drive in Jogging pants, real thin light weight cotton...no tag, so I don't know the brand name. I have shorts handy for fuel stop or park office! When I had a dog in coach alone, she would sit on front seat, on a towel...designated driver! LOL I used a cloths pin for emergency brake, just in case! Carl
  4. As I have stated...works for me! I'm a member of Escapees, Alamo Ch. 11, I can go to any rally I want, but the Trailer members can not, they are limited to GS, Yet the Escapees is a FMCA & GS Chapter. There are a lot of reasons why someone choose a Fifth wheel or pull behind over a Motor Home. The once I know, have not to do with money, but convenience, they are ranchers, so they already have the big trucks and a fifth wheel is a perfect fit ! As long as it is a separate corp. should be no problem! Carl, National Director
  5. Priestlake. Welcome to the Forum. If you have a foot or hand valve, direct dump from toilet to tank, then I would recommend you flush in a couple of gallons of water, some Dawn Liquid and a small bag of ice cubes, as you leave for the next RV park (make sure you dump your tanks first). By the time you reach your destination and dump again, you will have no solids! I used to do that about every 3 months and had no problems for 40 years! Can't do that now, I have a electric maceration toilet (no valve)! Carl
  6. I don't carry my rock with me, I leave it on the deck at the house. If it moves, it's windy, wet = rain and white, it's snowing or I have a seagull problem! Other than that, a weather alert and thermometer in/out is all I need... Carl
  7. Chris G. Some things are not meant to be...Ability to handle an RV and age, do not go hand in hand. I had my own at 24, but back then, it was 18 foot long, kind of like a long bed Crew Cab... and I knew how to drive a Box delivery truck, so no big step. WBill. Fully agree...it can be scary out there. Take a Trip to So. TX or FL in winter! Have no clue how some got there in one piece...
  8. Eric. Welcome to the Forum! We always appreciate constructive input from anyone, about any subject, any time! However, we strive, to not be destructive... So if you have something posetive, about this 8 month old post, go for it. Carl
  9. Lyle, what if you got to drop a tank? It happens, not often, but I had to have my black tank repaired earlier this year and that was done after the tank came out... Carl
  10. Sad, but true! My bat wing died so now I have a Rayzar Automatic for OTA and it worked as advertised...currently on cable in a RV park. 48 channels and thats more than I can or want to watch. Have had all the domes and open dish on roof, don't miss it or the $84 a month! Carl
  11. If it's pre rally or post, Google for a RV park. If you don't mind living on generator for a couple of days, then come early...all options will be in your mail envelope, you should receive it about 4-6 weeks before the convention...of course, you could volunteer and then you'll be there about 3 days early for orientation. If you choose to do that, then call FMCA...they'll take care of you! Welcome to the Forum! Carl
  12. Brett, since it's a 2016 model, I'm thinking he has the same problem as me...in shorts he's sticking to the seat, with cloth he would not do that. Or, he want's to preserve the original seat material, may also have pet/pets! Carl
  13. Food shopping,,,best meat market around. Unless you go to San Antonio or Kerrvile. Saw your coach with tech, but you where not there! Enjoy the Highway and stay safe. Carl
  14. Kay. On Prevost Stuff, there are 3 MCI "J" for sale. 2 are 36'. Also, several "Royal's", one 45 Foot. Carl
  15. Wonder why we get these questions and don't hear back from OP? Carl
  16. Wayne. Are you saying that your, a Motor Home hoarder? You can easily, over load on things you don't need. Food, clothing, tools, spare parts, etc. If I have not used something for over a year. It's out.. 5 years ago and another coach, I used a flat bathroom scale and a metal box, that I weight first, then I unloaded everything in the coach, item by item,,,after 2 days, I was totally amassed by the weight I was carrying around...Especially in the kitchen!!! I'm not even a full timer and now I'm real careful about the "Stuff" I have! Carl
  17. aj. Brett has not said this yet, but we will have a Forum Meet & Greet, I don't have a schedule yet on what sessions we will have, but we will all have it sent to us or if your doing will call you'll have it in plenty of time! If you wish to volunteer, then I suggest you do it now...they really need a head count as early as possible and you will be there for orientation before most others arrive. Sorry, I can't be off more help. Carl
  18. Herman. We checked voltage today and it's 12.3...they are to busy here now, so I'll have it done in Lajitas this weekend...my friend the electrician will be there! Joe. Carl
  19. Joe. What part of round, think circle, nobody seem to understand? Funky Bra! Carl
  20. Ross, I'm not going anywhere anytime soon and I like the FMCAssisst for $10 bucks! So far, I have had 3 clubs offer the same for $99-$110...The latest was Shriners International for $110, that one I took, because it covers me any where in the World, regardless of what I'm doing...since I spend equal time outside the US as inside. Just to save a couple of hundred bucks between tires...I don't get it ! Carl
  21. Bill. My post was in ref to the Diesel Club, I'm a member! I'll be at both rallies..Are you a member? If not, why? Joe is. He got a card and a plaque...I don't. I just found out, my coach has been ready since 11:00am....Monday's are strange all over, can't go any where, Coach's in front and back.
  22. Unfortunately, like Motor Homes, a lot of auto makes are selling 2017's now and have been for 3 months! You're just going to have to contact the various makes yourself! Carl
  23. aquamike. Welcome to the Forum! In order to help you, we need to know Make, Model and year. It would also help if we knew where your at. Carl
