Welcome, but I would seriously consider replacing the tires. You probably will not wear them out they just age out causing them to have internal damage.

We had an adjustable stand to put under the step. Top and bottom was about a 4" square steel plate with a screw adjustment between them. Just be careful to not activate the step with the jack below. I just found the jack on Amazon. One for $15.99 or two for $24.99.

I found mine in SPAM folder, but it doesn't say that dues will increase to $100.00/year.

In my opinion, wise decision!

Check on Firestones. I and several friends have been using them. Saved a lot.

There was an update of the operating system. Several pages were not available, but the IT department corrected connections to all that were reported. I usually take a screenshot of the issue and forward to FMCA. They fix it very rapidly. I was a programmer for 20 years and the expression was: "Only the known bugs are fixed."

We had a 2006 Expedition which is similar to your Bounder. To remove our tv, i had remove the face frame, 4 screws. There were screws in the plastic foot stand of the tv and wood bar at the top to keep tv in place. The tv was the old crt type and took two people to set it out. I made my new flat screen tv support out of aluminum angle and flat stock from a big box store. The frame was supported at top outside with 1/2" machine bolts which allowed we to pull the tv out at the bottom and used a wood bar to support the tv to install and remove cables. There was enough room behind the tv I moved the bass surround speaker from the floor to that space. I cannot send or post any pictures, because we sold the motor home two years ago.

You can sort the membership for Pinch hit drivers. Some members have signed up to provide this service. Not sure who you called, but I would have called FMCAssist and ask them. Currently, they provide the service for all members.

Two years ago we gave it up. Still miss going somewhere, but it was time. So I feel for you and hope all gets better each day.

Since the fan has not been running, when you start the car following towing, you probably will smell an oder of burning rubber. That is tire dust on the engine being heated. Don't be concerned unless you see excessive tire wear. If you do, your car may need an alignment.

A solid rock guard the full width of motor home and 4 inches of space between it and ground. Lower will cause a lot of flipped rocks. Higher and you might as well not have it. I think you can search the forum for the same issue was fully covered a few years ago.

Many truck tire installers have 10" long valve stems that they can bend to fit. They are very solid and will hold the TPMS sensor.

Toyos ate not made by Michelin or in the FMCA discount,

Actually, I think the decline started when the Executive Board decided to not continue paying Brett Wolfe as moderator. He decided to not continue as chairman of the Technical Review committee for articles in the magazine. He now supporting another forum.
