RE: Trip out west
I80 most of the way os the easiest. IMHO blast put, then take a leisurely trip back doing all the site seeing. Do you mean Klamath Falls?

RE: Will the "Cube" pick up Direct TV HD?
No it does not. You need an oval dish and the correct lb plus.

RE: Plastic Sink Repair
Take some measurements and go to the local big box store and buy a new sink. Simple exchange and you will be much happier. It is possible you might have to do a bit of cutting, but much better fix.

RE: need help on a 2008 gmc
Should have a 9900 pound GVWR.
Since he is Calgary, be aware of the restrictions in B.C. as far as loading.

RE: Campers who bully and badger
First thing you do is report her actions. Do it every time and if she continues she will be asked to leave and never return. Park rangers are there do help make sure everyone has a good time and no one is put upon like that. I know the rangers at the parks where I volunteer would not put up with it.

RE: Help with the math???
What is ready to travel weight..Thought i had that with the 5577 weight..
What are my missing but gas and people? but thats in the 2100 number
Ready to travel, full tank of gas, everybody and everything that will be inside or in The bed of the truck when you go camping. It can include an ice chest full of ice and beverages, kids, wife, dog, fire wood, tools, toys etc etc etc. Depending on how you load your truck it can be minimal or a lot. That is your ready to travel weight.

RE: Alpenlite opinions.
IMHO Alpenlite ( Western RV) made some of the best products going. Full aluminum frames, good insulation, large tanks, whats not to love? But at those ages, things are bound to need replacing. Like the roof. Even on the newest the material is now 14/15 years old. It will probably be getting brittle. So figure those sorts maintenance items into your upgrade budget.

RE: Workamper Wanted in Western Washington
This guy posted the same question on another forum a while back. Lots of negative comments on the 35 dollar application fee. Most people thought it was a rip off to have to pay to apply for a job.

RE: looking for a place to buy new decals.
Look for a mobile sign shop. They can come to you and do about anything you want on the trailer using better quality materiql than the cheap garbage used by the factory.

RE: Help with the math???
Nope! Not quite. Payload is GVWR minus scaled ready to teavel weight. Or for towing weight calculations you would use the manufacturers GCWR minus the scaled ready to camp weight.

RE: Landing jacks
Pry the cap off the top of either leg. There should be a part number on a tag under there. My guess it is a Venture Mfg landng gear assembly. Good people to work with and parts prices are reasonable.

RE: trailer tire/axle alignment
Just because the axles were new does not mean they were properly arched/aligned once installed on your trailer. Call around to some heavy duty truck/trailer shops and price out alignments from them. The RV dealer price seems pretty high. A couple hundred dollars would be more in line.
BTW have you jumped a curb? Also what brand of tires do you have. There has been lots of reports of cheap tires creating all sorts of problems.

RE: Lippert Hydraulic pump
Typically that leak is the reservoir to pump connection. There are several fixes that have been tried. But the best is a new oring and a large hose clamp. The clamp goes around the base of the reservoir not too tight but snug enough to prevent the tank from distorting.
