RE: 1999 Holliday Rambler Vacationer ??'s
I have a 2000 Vacationer with a '99 F53 Ford chassis. I've had no trouble with my V10 engine.

RE: Gas MH owners who changed shocks
I put Bilsteins on 3 years ago, plus Steer-Safe, and I'm thrilled with the added stability. Driving across West Texas, I thought it was odd that there was no wind. I stepped out at a rest stop and was nearly blown off my feet.

RE: Entry Steps
Funny. I went the other way. When I pulled up the carpet & installed laminate wood floors, I had them install deeply grooved rubber steps, like you'd find on a school bus. I could see myself go flying when I took the dogs out for a midnight pee in my stocking feet. That actually happened with my carpeted steps.

RE: INSTALLING HOME CONCRETE RV PAD ?
Re: the length of the slab, it doesn't need to be as long as your friend's RV ... just enough for the wheel base if there is enough room on your property for the rear end to overhang. Using bricks or lumber to support the rear jacks is much cheaper than concrete.

RE: Dinosaur Natl. Monument still needs hosts
I'd be tempted ... if they'd let me paddle the Split Mountain whitewater run whenever I wanted. :0

RE: Outa' Round Tires and Wheels on a new Coach
I had what my mechanic called a "death rattle" at 45 mph. Two new front tires fixed the problem. Drives like a dream now.

RE: make bed raise for storage beneath?
Am I missing something? Mine already lifts up, allowing me to store things underneath. Thought it was standard.

RE: switching dinette for table,chairs
It can be done, depending on your carpentry skills. All pros, no cons. Make sure the table is bolted to the floor when you are driving. Chairs have NEVER moved.

I've had flying chairs. They are strapped in when the rig is in motion.

RE: Outfitting the RV
When I got my RV, I went to Wal Mart and just duplicated in the RV all of the "stuff" I regularly use in my S&B kitchen (spatulas, measuring spoons, knives, whisks, kitchen towels, etc.). They were very inexpensive. So all I have to do is just "transfer" the refrigerator stuff, bring my clothes in and go. I can shop on the road.
I like using real plates & flatware. I did invest in a good stainless steel nesting cookware set such as this (I have a different brand which appears to be no longer available). With detachable handles, the set takes up a horizontal space no larger than a fry pan.
The bed stays made up, and I also keep a set of bath towels in the RV, and first-aid & other "stuff" in the medicine cabinet. I do bring all my cosmetics & such from the S&B.

RE: Something for your RV that far exceeded your expectations?
Love my homemade lighweight wood steps to go over the metal ones. They work good for our pooch with hip problems and for me after my Miller Lite problems getting in and out of the TT.:B
Picture please? I have elderly dogs as well. ;)

RE: Ding Dong
Why not a intercom with a light on it. Flashing light comes on when you call him ... How about a clip-on device that vibrates whenever you call? ... Why not use these little family radios. They beep as well as you could tell him what kind of wine you would like. When pigs fly!
How about just tying a string on him and giving him a YANK?

RE: RV Upgrades
I've done several things -- some voluntary, and others due to necessity:
1. Ugraded my stock suspension to Bilsteins, and added a Steer-Safe stabilizer. Makes all the difference in the world -- no more white-knuckle trips due to lane wandering. Now I can hardly tell the wind is blowing (even in West Texas!).
2. New wood laminate floor throughout.
3. Splendide washer/dryer.
4. Rebuilt transmission (not voluntary) with upgraded torque converter (voluntary).
5. Repaired body damage I inflicted during learning curve (!!) plus new windshield.
6. Re-sealed roof.
7. Driver's side fan & three new 12-volt plugs in the cockpit.
8. CB radio.
9. New lavatory countertop / sink / faucet (repair)
10. Added a driver's side fan. (aaaahhhh)
That's enough for now!

RE: Look at this motorhome refurb. UNBELIEVABLE!
I have a MH and this is obviously a trailer of some kind, but I do like the option of ditching the couch and putting in chairs like that. I agree ... waaay too much fru-fru for my taste.
For you Camping World members, a remod of MY particular coach was featured on page 68 (can't find the current issue on line). Knocked my socks off. ;0

RE: MH Crash in Phoenix
Did anyone else note in the video that there was no crunched semi to be seen? The newscaster did not say it was a hit and run. I'm wondering ...

RE: For the Fulltimers amoung us????
Again I am the OP, yes yester day the DW had to go home and get the home insurance paper with the address and the electric bill and return to DMV to get her DL renewed. A post office box like BarbraOK stated above for the Escapee's is not a bill or official prof of residence. My question is if you cannot produce BILLS then how are you going to renew???
Maybe they'll accept your previous-year's state income tax return. LOL. Tell them if they won't let you be a resident for driving purposes, you won't be a resident for income tax purposes.

RE: Pole option to remedy the Dead Horse
I can appreciate the desire on the part of some to neat-ify human interaction, but I don't think this forum gets (totally) out of hand. :B I value the human interaction. Otherwise we could just post lists of FAQs and go home.
For me, half the fun of posting a question is watching the vigorous give and take. What I notice, though, is that people tend to respond to questions based on their experiences with their particular rigs. Over time, the correct answer -- or appropriate options -- for my particular my rig usually floats to the surface.
In other words, a "pat" answer in your poll may not apply to me.
