RE: UPDATE ANOTHER PROBLEM I thought things could not get worst
silvercorvette - What KOA are you at now. I almost think you are at the FREDERICKSBURG VA KOA
Roy Ken
47 Fox Trail Loop, Fancy Gap VA 24328
I am taking I-77 to I-81 to Harrisburg PA, then east to NY on I-78
That explains the beautiful scenery. That is a really nice area.
I too have that occasional back pain flare up.
Combo of slow down, take med sparingly, hot shower in AM, followed by stretching execises is what gets me back on my feet.
Hang in there and don't push yourself.

RE: installing a house toilet in our trailer
Before we even used our TT for the first time i ordred and installed a Ceramic Thetford toilet with the hand spray option.
That original 5 gallon bucket that comes standard is no go.
I still don't see how you will keep the trap seal when traveling with a house toilet.
The ceramic RV toilets are just as "comfortable" as a house toilet and you can use as much water as you like in them to aid with flushing.

RE: CO/Propane detector
I didn't say the code required the CO in the ceiling.
It's cheaper when building to buy a Smoke/CO detector and wire for one than to have to buy a seperate CO detector and then have the electrician add another box, not to mention that a lot of people don't want another detector close to a smoke detector whether it be on the ceiling, wall or where ever.

RE: We may have to sell
Make sure consignment dealer has a good credit rating.
I read about a consignment lot where the guy went bankrupt and they impounded all the vehicles he had on his lot.

RE: CO/Propane detector
Some of you are stating that CO detectors are supposed to be mounted on the ceiling, what is your source for saying this?
It is not NFPA, so I am curious as to what source/reference you are using.
I am a licensed in Massachusetts (Lic #s 103C and 220D) to install fire alarms, CO detectors etc.
Thanks Paul
Probably basing it on locations required in a regular house (bedroom ceilings).

RE: CO/Propane detector
Aerosol sprays will also set the propane detector off.

RE: Proper Gear for Towing up Hills
I don't notice much difference when cruising using my tow/haul, but I notice a big difference when slowing down and stopping. Tow/haul uses the trans to slow down the truck instead of relying strictly on the brakes to do all the work.
BTW, this is with an '09 Chev 2500 gasser.

RE: When buying a used TT a picture is NOT worth 1000 words...
You never know.
Probably posted old pictures when unit was still new.

RE: Paying for electricity w/ 50 amp
Charging extra for 50 vs 30 is down right being greedy.
Most camp grounds we have stayed in average $35-50 a night.
If you were to meter the amount of electricity the average camper uses in a day it would be miniscule 30 or 50.
Think in terms of what you use for an entire month in your sticks & bricks home and what your monthly bill is.
As was posted earlier, campgrounds we stay in bill from primitive site (low$) to paved pull through full hook ups.

RE: CO/Propane detector
I have a combo unit also and it is mounted in the toe kick space right near where my h/w tank is.
I installed a seperate CO detector in the ceiling as a precaution.

RE: looking for switch to change hot water tank to electric
My electric switch is outside on the tank itself. Hard to see unless you open the access cover and are looking for it.
The gas switch is on the wall inside above the h/w heater.

RE: Sewer Flush ??
I dump the black then fill the tank one or two more times and dump to clean it out.
Close the black valve, turn on the tank flush, and just check through the toilet to keep an eye on the water level so you don't overflow.

RE: is new camper actually new?
Obviously if you ordered the unit in Feb. and the build date is Nov. they didn't factory order this just for you and they found it on another dealers lot or it was sitting at the factory.
Unless the thing looks like a herd of human cattle have been trudguing through it when you go to pick it up, I wouldn't worry about it.

RE: New trailer, looking for opinions?
I'd put down regular plywood instead of the OSB if I were you.
WoodGlue
X2!! And if possible 3/4" T&G doug fir. That will hold up well in the event you should get a future water problem.

RE: 5W with an office space
Gulfstream Canyon Trail/Yellowstone has a model that has a desk area in front of the TV. Also their dining table top unlatches and rotates so you can sit a chair in front of it and have a wide working area.
