Hello! As a multi-year member of FMCA ... and proud of it ... I have wondered over the years how to decide which chapter to join. Because I'm not in one place long enough to contribute anything to a particular chapter, I have reluctantly not joined at all. What do other FMCA members do that travel a lot, and never stay anywhere for any length of time? Thank you for any suggestions you might have for me. Patricia Arthur Currently in Naples, Fla.

Hi Brett! Having scoured the web pages for the company called: CARE FREE CALIFORNIA, I could not find anything useful for maintenance of the hardware. If you know of something that might work, I would appreciate it if you could share the information with me. Thank you for your concern, and I will look forward to hearing from you.

Hi, Brett! Thank you for your reply, but I'm not so concerned about the awnings, but rather the electrical components making them extend and retract. The only problem at this point is finding the manuals belonging to this coach! Thanks, again. Pat

HI! As a lone driver in a 2007 Country Coach, 36', quad with a toad, I have found that using my electric awnings causes some obvious squeeking noises.........the type of noise that begs for a lubricant. I know using silicone is not the perfect choice, nor anything that might eat thru the fabric or steel, but someone suggested corn silk powder! The only thing I could think of using corn silk would be a hearty laugh, but when one thinks about it, it is slick, and if it doesn't clump during a rain storm, well........? What do you think would be the ideal slick to use on those gears? Thank you.
