RE: Pets in the coach
We have 2 14 year old dalmations and when we leave we close the blinds and crack a window or leave the vents wide open. We also put music on for them and put the dinette down for a big bed for them. They just love to sleep on it and it keeps them quiet.

RE: Safari Trek or Georgie Boy Landau
First off you will love the 8.1 Vortec and Allison tranny. I have the 8.1 in my Class C, but the the Allison. More power then you will need. Before we bought our 03 Chateau I test drove a 96 Trek and loved the way it handled and drove down the road, quality construction, nice room. We choose not to get it because it was overpriced, needed some work, and was older then the one we bought. I think if you really look at the GB with slides that would be the way to go. More room for those days the weather isn't good.

RE: Class A in this campground is to big with toad...
Though I don't use a toad I would just as soon disconnect and make life easier. I know my last MH (87 Allegro) wasn't the easiest thing to drive in some older state parks. The hassle of squeezing in is not worth it. JMHO

RE: I Need to Vent!!!
Sorry for your experiences. I would call Winnebago and complain about the dealer and find a dealer that can take your MH for the next repairs. I would then contact the dealer (owner or manager) and explain how unhappy you are and that you have contacted Winnebago. Then contact the BBB and give them the information. Good Luck

RE: Trailer insurance question
Unless you have a very large awning I would just order some replacement fabric and skip the claim. I replaced my 16' awning fabric on my last Class A for under $200. My deductable is $500 on any claim on my vehicles. I do the same on my homeowners policy. Sometimes the hassle isn't worth the claim.

RE: 2013 Ford Explorer
I wouldn't go over a GVWR of 4000lbs. That doesn't leave you much. It probably leaves you with a HTT or ultralite. Remember don't look at dry weight but gross weight. Remember the TT is never empty or you never leave home without the family and food.

RE: Wandering Nightmare
It's not the length of the chassis. I have an 03 Chateau 26Q that handles like a dream. Check your weight (specificly behind the duals), check the air pressure on your tires (mine were at 90lbs when I bought it) lowered the duals to spec at 80 and the fronts to 75 rides real smooth, my air bags in the rear are inflated to 70 lbs. Mine isn't affected by the water tank being full or empty (the difference is about 165 lbs). My guess is too much weight past the duals. Whats in your storage bays???

RE: How to use Generator
Yes, everything should work just like being plugged in. You may a transfer switch that is not working properly or a problem with your generator. Others may have more specific information for you.

RE: 30 amp service in garage
That's what I having done when we put the sunroom on this summer. When the electrician is wiring the room I have the space on my box for 30 amp to the garage. I will run the piping to the garage prior to him arriving.

RE: Truck or SUV recommendations
Unless the F150 is newer then you may be light. I would go with a 3/4 ton truck that way if you upgrade to a heavier TT you will be covered. JMHO

RE: Sealing bathroom flooring
Go to Lowes and pick up some vinyl floor glue. Just need a very small can and then caulk the edge with tub and tile caulking.

RE: Thinking about a Class C. Anyone tow with theirs?
Unless you go diesel you will be limited to no more than 5000 lbs in towing. Most Class C gas are very limited because of the GVWR is close to max when it goes off the lot. I also don't think too many C will be able to climb at 65 mph loaded to the bear let alone pulling a large trailer. JMHO. But then I'm never in a hurry to get where I'm going.

RE: 110 power
Depends on the size of the inverter, but it should power most small things. If you need more: like AC and microwave - just run the generator. The disconnect switch is usually used when you place in storage to prevent battery drain. I have it for my coach battery in my older Allegro. Keep my current C plugged in 24/7.

RE: Hot Water
Depends on how cold the water is to start with. Mine can take 10 to 15 minutes in warmer weather and much longer in the colder times. I just kick mine on when I get up in the morning and just before we start getting ready for dinner.

RE: First time post: tire issues inside pass. rear
I agree with above posts. You are overwieght and under pressure on tires. I have an 03 Chateau 26' and I have a class III hitch rated for 5000# which is max for the 3500 GM chassis. I have my tires at 70 lbs front and 80 on the rear with is max for the duals.
You are 1000lbs over weight on the rears and running way low on pressure. Trying to pull 7000lbs so drop a grand on your loaded weight, drop 2K on the trailer and buy some good tires.

RE: Getting ready to buy a used Jayco 31FS
I would look for another unit. Too much inventory to run the chance of getting hosed. The bank will have to be involved and they will not release the title until they are paid. Save your money and go look someplace else.

RE: Campgrounds
5 girls - 6 grandkids, with 1 on the way - oldest daughter is 32 and youngest is 7. I'm a substitute teacher, all grade levels and subjects. Love the kids around when camping because thats what we had growing up. If you want quiet don't go to a public campground go to a resort. Or put in earplugs and stay inside your RV.
