RE: First time driving mountains
A pretty good rule is to go down a hill a gear lower than it takes to get up the hill.
And this rule works only if brakes are used sparingly going down hill.

RE: Insulated and heated underbelly?
Bypass the HWH before winterizing. Empty it.

New Sheets
I bought some new sheets. The fitted sheet has a piece of slightly different fabric sewn in on both the top and bottom ends. It's about 10" wide and runs the width of the sheet.
Anyone know why it was made that way?

RE: Insulated and heated underbelly?
Your trailer will be "winterized" before you leave--right? Including the water heater?
I would'nt worry much about the tank valves. When I travel in my winterized fifth I take jugs of water. I use the toilet, flush with a little water from the jug.
I "summerize" in Georgia.

RE: Is it important to get dual pane windows?
It costs the dealer to have a unit sitting on the lot. He has interest expenses also. The longer it sits, the more he has into it.
So, if someone comes in and wants to make a down payment to order, the dealer orders, delivers, done. With less expenses, he can sell it for less.
Dealers are real funny about selling for less than they have in a unit.

RE: Is it important to get dual pane windows?
I would have to special order them...I probably won't get the best price if I order rather than buy something off the lot, would I?
You mean you would special order a 5th wheel--with dual panes?
You can get a better price ordering than buying off the lot.

RE: Headin' to Florida
On the contrary those temps are also common in the Yuma area during the winter season.
According to this the average Jan low in Yuma is 46---brrrrr.

RE: Headin' to Florida
I've spent winters in Fla before but it's hard to beat the AZ climate in the winter...:C
Where I live in Florida the Jan. average high is 79 and the low is 69. You wont find that in Arizona.

RE: Set up!
If the site slopes from front to back, you may need to lower the front end to level. To do this, run the landing gear down a ways before lowering the landing gear jacks. Raise the trailer off the pickup. Then you can retract the landing gear to lower the front end to level.

I think that is my Elite Suites on the left of the front row. Looks like it doesn't have window silks yet.

RE: Reserve America web site ?
I love RA. With three different accounts, two computers and friends on the phone with thier computers, I was able to pick off Bahia Honda waterfront sites like flies. I even got TWO waterfronts sites, next to each other once. I was there for weeks and weeks and weeks. LOL.
Anyone want my secrets?

RE: LONG POSTs
I see a lot of posts where someone has to tell the date, time, highway, direction headed, who all was going and then go on and say they lost a lug nut, wondering if they should check the others.

RE: Highway 9 tunnel east of Zion
The length restriction is because the tunnel is curved.
If it had anything to due with roads, the road would have a restriction.

Keeping Track of your Money
As I get more and more accounts and funds, my pencil and paper system of keeping track is becoming overburdended.
Is there some easy software to do it? Something I can update each month/quarter to keep a handle on things?
