RE: tires "cupping"
From a search on "tires cupping" on Google:
"A "cupped" wear pattern on the tires can be caused by a wheel and tire that are out of balance or by weak shock absorbers or struts. This type of wear occurs because the wheel bounces up and down as it rolls down the highway. The cure here is to have the wheel balanced or replace the worn shocks or struts."

RE: Water under trailer?
Obviously, you're gonna have to remove the plastic to expose the leak.
That said, is your fresh water pump running with all the faucets shut? Does it only leak when the tub/shower is used? Or only when certain sinks are used?
Figure on replacing the plastic sheeting, and the fiberglass insulation that's soaked. Depending on the length of time the leak has been going on, you may have wood damage also.
Get on it... .it's only gonna get worse.

RE: Best Route to Sedona
I would use I5 to Hwy 58....to Bakersfield and through to Barstow. Pickup I40 east at Barstow and then to Flagstaff and I17 south a little way......and your almost there.:)
I'd concur. Take I-17 south of Sedona, and then take 179 back to the north. The construction should be done by next year.
Where are you staying? We did the Rancho Sedona RV Park thing. Good location, quiet, nice park. They're kinda anal about their dog rules, but it's all common courtesy - they just enforce it. Don't leave trash outside overnight - the racoons and the skunks will find it and love you for it!

RE: ?WW coiled water hose pin holes?
.....I wouldn't want to try it on a super muddy toy though...
We actually used it on the quads last Thanksgiving in Ocotillo Wells. Worked "pretty" well.... it loosened the big chunks of mud at least. But you're right - it's not a 5000psi pressure washer.

RE: Potluck meals
Grape jelly , chilly sauce , meat balls and a crock pot , people complained because they did not get any. I made it in the biggest crock pot there is and nothing was left.
Or a Raspberry/Chipotle sauce (on the BBQ sauce aisle in the market) on the meatballs is tasty.

RE: Its a sad sad day in Central Indiana
And here in Southern Calif, we're just gearing up for desert season.... greasing wheel bearings, filling propane tanks, loading firewood. Comfy camping until about Mother's Day.

RE: Huevos Rancheros
My mom's version (that has now become mine :R ) starts out with sausage (either link or Italian) cooked to done. Leave the sausage in the pan, and add a can of chili beans. Break a few eggs on top of the beans and add grated cheese to your taste. Cover, turn the heat down to medium-low, and poach the eggs.
Sourdough bread or toast goes well with it. And a bloody mary!

RE: WW FK1900 - Can't find out what one of the switches does...
How do i fix it? Is it soldered back there? I wonder how they would wire them up.
Should be just eye/spade terminals.... only 12volts.

RE: Cost of New Class B's-Why do you want them?
Size?
Some might not feel comfortable driving an "A" (a lot shouldn't be anyway, from my observations... :R)
Daily Driver to and from work?
If there wasn't a market for them, they wouldn't sell them.

RE: oil filter wont budge
Strap wrench
Screwdriver punched thru side-to-side
or my favorite -
use a small chisel and a hammer, and LIGHTLY tap the crimped edge of the filter with the chisel, at an angle almost like you're trying to shave a layer off the crimped edge, tap in the direction to unscrew the filter.
Then, NEVER AGAIN let anyone else install an oil filter on your truck but you.

RE: Paper Maps Versus GPS
One cannot find an address with a paper map!
Thomas Brothers in California has addresses.
that said, a map or a gps or a compass is only as good as the user, and is just another tool in the navigation toolbox.
Was using ours (Garmin 755) last week on a trip to Sedona, AZ from San Diego. It got "confused" around the 101/17 interchange north of Phoenix. I knew where I was going, but it wanted me to turn around and take side streets (no traffic either). In disgust, I turned it off. After a minute or 2, I turned it back on, and VIOLA! Back on track perfectly.

RE: Gas stove "popping"
Sometimes when we turn off the gas for the stove, you will get a pop...
That's happened on EVERY propane stove or BBQ I've ever used. I consider it no big deal.

RE: So I'm gonna finally get one
I've got the 755, and use it on both my motorcycle and in the truck. Easy to change from one vehicle to the next. Easy to plan routes and add addresses for "go-to's". Plenty of Point-Of-Interest files (POI's) on the internet to add.
I'd buy another one.... :)

RE: Door Lock - Now I remember why I have not been able to
Drive the MH to an auto parts store.
Ask to try several different torx screwdrivers until you find the right one, then buy it.
Now you'll have it for "next time"....
