Its a good price if they work ok. Not familiar with that brand. I use Tire Minder for about the same money.

When there is no power at the shore cord the relays in the ats connect the generator to the coach. When power is present in the shore cord the electronics switch the relays to complete the circuit from coach to shore power and disconnect the generator. Batteries have no function in this operation.

Check the accuracy of the speedometer and odometer. That is done in the engine computer. Make sure the right info is entered such as tire revs per mile. Some coaches I've traveled with claim higher mileage than I was getting yet when we fueled up we both took the same gallons. The distance traveled on the odometer was greater on the other coach even though we went the same miles.

How much is the ten tire setup?

I prefer to use the small canisters and refill them from my main tank. Originally my generator ran off the main tank but I installed a larger tank just for the generator so I had an empty valve with liquid withdrawl. The trick to filling the tanks full is cool them in the refrigerator or freezer first, especially if the propane tank is not full. Very little waste.

There advertised in the FMCA magazine in the past.

I was in the store shopping.

I was parked at a Wal Mart in Kansas when a severe wind storm suddenly came up and blew 4 shopping carts into the side of my newly painted motorhome. Caved in the generator door and some other side damage. I got a response from Wal Mart's insurance and they said their not responsible. Has anyone had experience with Wal Mart?

You might check the harness plugs. Make sure they are clean and if the prongs are split take a knife and widen it a little. Use dielectric grease on the connections, such a DC4 compound. You might try plugging the left camera into the right harness to see if it is the harness or the monitor switching.

My home garage is 32x64, 2 story tall, with cement floor and I have 4 jack stands for the motorhome. When I'm on the road I carry a couple of pieces carpet to lay on. I roll them up and put them in the back of my pickup truck that I tow.

Its possible to fix a plugged carb but in our business, Onan service with a level 3 tech, we found it was usually less costly to the customer to just replace the carb with a new one. There are some passages that are impossible to clear and the time spent quite often exceeded a new carb replacement.

It depends on the "super glue". Some car and truck door hinges are glued on and not welded or bolted. I saw a door almost get ripped off and the hinges just bent, the glue held tight. I would, however replace the gauge.

I have had a Moto Sat HD for 5 years and have enjoyed Directv in HD. Highly recommend it.

If worst comes to worst you can strip the wheels and buff to a shine just like the older wheels were done. I have the older wheels with the buff shine and they last a year or two before I have to polish them again. -
You are correct, thats why there are different choices in the market place. I was just stating my observations.

Probably use self leveling Dicor lap sealant.

To get better than 6-8 mpg I would recommend getting into a diesel pusher. I have a 32 ft with a Cummins ISB 275 towing a 1/2 ton Silverado and get between 10 and 11 mpg. Not the fastest up a steep hill but I get there!

Every time I change a tire I install a new o-ring. The cost is about 50 cents.

We use Kroger brand which have several local brand stores. Dillons, Smiths, and some others which slip my mind at the moment. Pricing is fair and they have discounts on fuel, depending on how much you spend on groceries.

When treating the fuel with Stabil mix 1/2 to 1 oz per gallon and then drive vehicle a short distance to get the treated fuel throughout the fuel system

I have not owned a fifth wheel but have traveled with folks that have. Some observations are: harder to park, harder to level, you have a big truck for your running around. mileage is less, when going down the road the wife cannot go to the bathroom, the mileage for the toad vs the big truck is 2 to 3 times better, if your in inclement you don't have to go outside to get going,

When I recently stopped into the one last salvage yard I mentioned in an earlier post I found out that they sold all of the surplus parts at auction and only have current new merchandise. The store looks like a camping world space with about 15% of the stock. Very empty shelves.

If towing in Canada each axle on the road must have brakes.
