RE: thetford toilet
If its a Bravia, the unit is a piece of junk. Mine developed a small leak in the slide unit. The replacement part was almost the cost of a new toilet......so I bought a porcelain replacement..................MUCH BETTER TOILET!!

RE: Anaheim, Ca. Rally April 16-18- 2010
Glad to hear it Mike.
We had a "job" scare around here too. Almost lost my job this month due to a clerical error on my side. Kinda got it worked out though....had to take a pretty good pay cut to keep it, got some hard decisions to make now with Ruthie really not working much and my pay-cut. Lets just say the next few weeks will......................be interesting to say the least.
Oh and your stuff is on the way Mac.........thanks for understanding our situation........not.:o

RE: Gulf Stream Crescendo 325 FRED Toy Hauler - Any good?
I kinda like it, and it doesnt look like a "leftover" to me....but then I looked at the model too. FREDs have been popping up more and more lately. Gulf Stream has been around for a long time. I would check the build quality by looking inside the places that you wouldnt normally look. If its nice and tidy in hidden places and everything fits well.....its probably ok. I have a workhorse and all the DP guys say that its noisey to drive and drives badly, but its not, and it doesnt. We almost bought a GS 5er a few years back and I liked the quality then. To bad it wasnt available when I bought mine.

RE: Anaheim, Ca. Rally April 16-18- 2010
Happy Thanksgiving to all.............a day late.
Went to Ruthies moms for the day and we are parked in the desert till Monday at our favorite little campground.
Got back late last night an were watching the Paul McCartney special, when the moho started to list a bit, then ALOT!!! A water line broke under the LR tires and we were sinking fast. Got her unhooked in a hurry, pulled the jacks up and sunk in the mud almost up to the axle. The old girl pulled herself right out with a little coaxing of the fuel pedal (full throttle). We had about 10 folks pitch in and get us moved to a new spot at 11pm at night. Quite an exciting evening at the ol' campground.

RE: gas or diesel
We had a 2008 MH on a Ford chassis, and now have an 07 MH on a WH25.5 chassis. We have never had to yell to talk to each other, in fact, we have never even had to raise our tone of voice. I will admit that the 8.1 Chev engine is quieter than the V10 Ford, but you folks who had older MH's should not compare a newer gasser to a DP if you haven't driven a newer gasser. I have driven a few DP's, and yes, they are definetly quieter, and do ride better, but I can't justify the price difference. Just MHOI.
Amen..........my wife and can talk without raising our vocies in our gasser too, and I drive it with 1 finger down the highway also. Not white knuckled as some would lead you to believe. When I'm parked its every bit as comfy as a DP!

RE: I Have a Leak!!!
Just curious, you mentioned that the toilet is leaking over the generator exhaust. Isn't the generator in the front of the motorhome, and the bathroom midcoach?
HR gasser.............not a DP.

I Have a Leak!!!
Well, we are spending the weekend in the low desert. Getting the moho off the freezing mountain and to get her ready for a little trip next weeked. We havent used her much this year, so there was alot to clean up and take care of.
I noticed water dripping off the gen exhaust pipe, so I decided to investigate................yup theres a leak in the bathroom area. Went to pump instead of city water so I could de-preasurize the system when not in use while looking for the leak that is in the leak. Took awhile but I found it.......the flush slide seal is dripping if there is water in the toilet. Of course we have a cheap plastic toilet, that wiggles and giggles when in use. I now have a dilema............do I take it in to be fixed under warranty, or replace it with a china toilet. I can get a better toilet that sits a bit higher and wont move around when used.
Has anyone done this? How much can I expext to spend for a good toilet?

RE: What did you do to your Class A MH today???
Replaced the no good house Interstate batteries, with some Costco golf cart batteries. $75.00 each.....................way cheaper than the Interstates. Washed and waxed about 1/2 of it today, will try to get the rest done tomorrow.

RE: What did you do to your Class A MH today???
Changed the trans over to Transyn and replaced the brake fluid. Oil and filter change, ran the genny, only 30 hours since the last service, and started to do a good cleaning on the inside first. Then thres the outside.................our weather has been foggy and windy a couple of weeks ago, so you can imagine what the outside looks like.
I need to replace the house batteries..........they just dont last very long anymore.

RE: Batteries
On our HR the auto step runs off the chassis battery NOT the house batteries. Its done this way so that the step will still work even if you have the house batteries off. If I leave the step switch on (the little red light on the panel lite) it will kill the chassis battery.

RE: What did you do to your Class A MH today???
Started the cleanup and PM on her for the winter camping season. We really havent used it much this year. But with the sale of some property and the selling of some vehicles thatarent used anymore, we just might be able to get out and do some RVing this winter and next year!

RE: Sat Dish Install
Not to change the topic, but have a look at a in-motion dome.
Been on the road in the mid west since the first of the month and it has saved us against bad weather several days. JMHO
Not worth the $$$ to me.

RE: Monster Mash V, Paso Robles, Nov 12-15,2009
Started getting the Moho cleaned up and ready for the "winter camping" season. Looks like my house batteries have finally had it and will need to be replaced. We really havent used it much this year (badmood), but with the sale of the Isabella house and we are presently getting rid of ALL the other stuff that we dont use anymore. Like the Dodge and the Ranger and a host of little items that we have collected of the past few years. Who knows......once all that stuff is gone, we might even be able to get some camping in!!

Sat Dish Install
Ok, I'm gettin really tired of doing the manual tripod sat setup when camping. So we've been looking at the Winegard RM DM46 crankup sat dish system. Does anyone have this system? How well does it work? How hard is it to "self install"? I'm very mechanically inclined and our moho is prewired and marked for a sat install on the roof.
Any help would be great.
