RE: can I use a site with 50amp with my 30amp plug??
In my limited experience with adapters, I seem to remember the hard plastic all-in-one adapters tend to get hot. I've never had that happen with the dog bone style. Again, my experience with them is limited...just an observation.

I suggest the one with the 1 foot pigtail (dog bone adapter).

RE: 14" tires
In a 14" I would look at the Kumho 857 tires. Keep in mind that they are not ST tires so the size will be aliitle taller. A 195/14 is about equal to a 205/75R14 ST tire. Great tires that have higher load rating, just make sure your rim can handle the higher PSI.

RE: Boat or RV ?
We have both. We find that the Rv gives us much more interaction with other people. We always meet new and interesting people wherever we camp. Boating is a more solitary recreation where we enjoy the people that come aboard with us. Most interaction with other people when you have a boat is manuevering for a spot at the launch ramp and can end up as a not so enjoyable experience. To choose only one, I vote for the RV.

RE: Trailer novice here, can you help me plug in my TT?
The cord that Roy has pictured is the cord you would need at a campground where you would normally plug into a 30amp receptacle. You need 30 amps to run everything in your trailer, especially the air conditioner. When at home, most people do not have a 30 amp receptacle so they use the adapter to plug into a 15 amp circuit. Keep in mind when plugged into the 15 amp you have to minimize what you run or you will throw the breaker.

RE: Disney tickets for Anaheim.
If you are going to stay at an RV park nearby try Anaheim RV Resort. Give them a call as I think they sell tickets there also.

RE: I was just wondering (Fuel Question)
Alot of the small,but high H.P. engines require the mid grade. My SIL has to use it in her BMW and the neighbor needs it for his Nissan. Where do you find 89 cheaper than 87? If it's cheaper, I may switch for my two gas powered vehicles. (TV is diesel)

You should have something like this that will allow you to plug in at a CG. With the adapter you can plug in at home.

RE: hiway 41
Either 41 or 46 will work. Basically the same type of 2 lane road. 46 goes east to connect with 99 at Wasco and then 99 north to Visalia. 41 takes a north/east route to 198 in Hanford and then it's a straight east shot on 198 to Visalia. Traveled both. Myself, I like the 41 route, so I can stay off the pot-hole ridden thing they call Highway 99.

RE: Water heater switch MOD to prevent accidental turn on
Nice job. I just wish I had a switch for the electric on the inside of the trailer!
Does your water heater have a dedicated circuit breaker?
Mine does and that is what I use as my inside switch.
Paul
I've been told that it is not a good idea to use your circuit breaker as an on/off switch unless it is designated that it is designed for it. Supposedly it weakens the breaker and they will "flip" easier. Maybe someone with more knowledge than me can clear that up for us.

RE: Recommendations for a preferred TPMS System.
I have the TST 507 system also. Very happy so far. Dealing directly with the company makes it a breeze. They are great people to work with.
