RE: Tire Monitoring Systems - Which One?

We love our Pressure Pro, but never tried any others so can't compare.

RE: Trailer Brake Evaluation

Is the P3 set up properly per manual? The override only brakes as high as your setting, so if it is set wrong, braking will be wrong also.

RE: Tom-Tom GPS

My wife is a wonderful talented lady. She can do many many things, but electronics is a mystery to her. She jokingly(?) says it is all magic. It was only recently that a cell phone was conquered, only for phone calls mind you, and it is still an uneasy truce.
Just before our last trip, only about 7000 miles this year, we were awarded a free TomTom One 130S. For free I'll try it. Wasn't long before wife decided she liked it, and was programming it herself. To anyone who knows my wife, this is earth-shattering news.
So, if she can do it, ANYBODY can. Can't say about that model, but both of us like our TomTom, and I doubt we will travel without one again. In fact my wife will INSIST we have it.

RE: fifth wheel VS travel trailer

For us the decision is easy, stairs are hard, so no 5er for us.

RE: Theft at campgrounds

In many many years and over 180,000 miles we've not once had anything taken. We rarely lock things either, although we lock trailer door if going all day (but it is a hybrid, so if someone wanted something tent would not stop them.)
BUT, we do not camp in big cities very often.

RE: Tires and Rims Part II

Many manufacturers tell you either the WEIGHT or the PSI for the tire size originally specified, it seems to me.
So your rims are rated for 2600# for a 225/75R15, which is Load Range D with a max pressure of 65 psi. Glad you found ratings, but I do not understand question now.
If it was should you exceed rim ratings, your choice. I would not.

RE: Quick Overnight stays

Your choice, we always stay at campgrounds. We like full hookups, and feel much safer. There are campgrounds everywhere, look at Trailer Life book.

RE: Adjusting WD and Anti Sway with a front garage toyhauler?

Where is your fresh water tank? Mine has rear garage and front water tank. Easy to adjust water level to get 13% on tongue for various loads. In fact we have used magic marker to put lines on tank so easy to duplicate.
Just an idea.

RE: Nervous wife

Make sure you take it slow and easy so she enjoys it. What kind of mileage per day were you thinking? That may be the issue. So many people try to cram in way too many miles in way too few days.

RE: Travel Trailer Tire opionions needed

As said, look on rear of rim for stamp, or in valley UNDER the tire.
Beware of "only talking 15 psi". Look at it this way, it is TWENTY THREE PERCENT over the rating, assuming they are rated for LR D. Would you overload your tires by 23%?
Your choice. I personally would not install LR E tires unless rims were rated for that pressure, or I NEVER inflated to max pressure.

RE: Lumpy

Sorry to hear of babies problems.
IMO when it is time, just ask a local vet. They will know. That is our plan, as we travel with a 15+ year old GSD. You can't leave them home. In fact our GSD will lie between TV and TT to be sure she goes. Sometimes she almost crawls to get there. Heartbreaking to watch, but the eyes are still bright, and she still wants to go.
You HAVE to take him. No other choice except everyone to stay home.

RE: brushing teeth

Even hard biscuits seem to help. There is also a powder that you can sprinkle on their food. Works for our GSD.

RE: Propane tank leak?

Call and ask a propane supplier like Suburban Propane. I would not be surprised if they said not to worry about it as long as it only leaks that way.

RE: WHAT'S YOUR IDEAL MOTOR HOME / RV CAMP GROUND.......

Full hookups, pullthrus, room for wifes 8' handicap ramp in front of TT door (so wide and flat space). Level enough I need not use Lynx Leveler blocks. A fenced area to walk dogs in is a plus. If mud is an issue, graveled. Shaded is a plus, as is grass.
Clean showers, wide enough for handicap usage. No stairs to showers, or to little store selling a few meal things (cans are fine, just so we can get something if we've run out).
Proper CG wiring so the use of an autoformer to get enough voltage is unneeded, even when park is full.
Extra addon fee for WiFi and cable. CG's that say it's free are lying, they just make everyone pay for it even if they do not want it.
At least ten miles away from any Interstate.
Not right next to railroad line. We joke that all KOA's have a train!
A few brochures telling us what is around that a tourist might want to see.
I'm sure there is a lot I've forgotten, but that is a start.
