RE: We've Been Robbed!
I still do not believe the story!
Too many loose ends.
Did the mysterious "Canadian Woman" have cash?
Why?
Did the mysterious "seller" wait a week or two for a personal check to clear?
Why did the Canadian woman have a RV hauler and no Rv with her?
Great story, should be filed under fiction!
I'm thinking disgruntle ex wife !! lol

RE: What Are You Doing in My Campsite? - Long Post
I also ran into some rude tent campers last week.It seemed as ifI had the only site that had a shade tree. So these campers were having a family reunion , with about 20 people. They went next to the tree because it was about 100 degrees outside to cook their BBQ ribs. I sat under my awning drinking a few brews just smelling that BBQ (and me on a diet) . When a young man about 20 said "HEY mister You want some ribs with that beer???" How rude! LOL . He said it was the least he could do for letting us cook so close to our motorhome.
I said sure no problem bringem over. Best DAmn Ribs i have ever eaten. I went over to thank him and I noticed his grandmother, eat in the little shade that was left by the mid day sun. So I offered my awning and a fan.
DW wife say's I'm getting soft with my old age.
I guess my point is treat people with kindness more likely will be rewarded with kindness.
HOWEVER I WOULD NEVER CUT THROUGH ANYONES SITE>> THAT AINT RIGHT!!

RE: Georgie Boy bin doors
I have exact same issue however mine is with shore power door. I removed door by removing the hinge attached to the door. Then used screw drive flat blade to snap the "C" back into place. However after opening and shutting a copule of times it came apart again. Still havent figured out how to get it to work properly.
I had a previous problem with my front fender. I took it to the dealer and they told me in order to replace they would have to remove all side doors and slide them out the end. So apparently the "c" hinge runs the entire lenght of the motorhome. I sure this doesnt help!

Things i noticed on trip last week............
Well Wife and I just completed a 2200 mile trip from Illy to Santa Rosa Ca. 2 things I notice. I80 is VERYYYYYYYYYY LONG, It suxs from Reno to Sacramento.
Most importantly and perhaps your expertise will help.
Why is it after you fill up with fuel, you wash the big windshield spotless on your rig, THAT only after 15 minutes on the interstate , the biggest bug in history splats right in the middle of your view?? This happened every single time I refueled!!! lol

RE: WFCO Convertor
Found out when I went to pull it out, that Fleetwood had closed off about half of the vent slots with expanding foam when they built my coach. With those vents closed off and the dust that the fan picked up from the coach floor, I expect it just overheated and died.
This is this the same thing i found when replacing mine.Over half the vents closed off. So when replacing i remounted a few inches away from the left over foam. I did remove alot of the foam when replacing

RE: Must be tough times for these people
"I learned a long time ago that "you can't judge a book by it's cover". I am not saying you are judging, but you are jumping to conclusions not supported by known facts. Become a sleuth and investigate, if they need help and you can, do it"
Dont judge a book......... reminds of a story i pass on to my kids.
Mr Jacobs came over to my house on afternoon. Mr Jacobs was rather elderly looking man and his wife about the same age. He didnt get around much anymore and ask if I minded going with him to the Car dealer. You see mr Jacobs had 6 kids and the all planned on coming to visit for a month so he wanted to go buy a car so they would put miles on his 10 year old buick. I said "no problem let me know when you are ready, reason I saifd that was he had on a old ratty shirt and holes in his pants . Which was pretty darn good for him!!.
He said I ready now lets go.
So off went to the dealer ...........salemans look at us and said we had the used models in the back, and to the right are the AS IS models. Mr Jacobs said "Son do you on commission?? salesman said Yes We do. Mr jacobs then said who is the youngest salesman you have?. He pointed to a real young guy . MR J said thanks . Walks right over to this young name who is Standing in the show room and says" ( i will never forget this ) I will take 6 of them there Lincoln's and will pay you cash!!. The bill was way over 100k. That other salesman tried to step in and Mr. J . Said" Look a**hole you had your chance."
Will never forget that lesson!
PS the reason he wanted me to come along was for to to help drive back and forth and pick them up...Thought he want my advise!! DUH!!
sorry it took awile to type this and apparently this topic has taken on a differnt light
