RE: Campgrounds in or near St Lucie Florida
We stay at Treasure Coast RV in Fort Pierce each Winter and love it! It is one of the nice CGs and the people who run it are exceptional. I would recommend it highly.

RE: Brakes are locked
It could be that the parking brake cable is sticky which prevents the parking brake shoes from completely releasing. Never park for extended periods with parking brake on.
I never park for any length of time without having the E Brake on. I do this for months at a time and have been doing it with the last three diesels over a period of 8 years. Maybe I have been lucky, but I don't want that Coach to move. I guess you could use blocks, but I don't.

RE: Ok, who is the oldest active RV'er here? Or maybe
We are both 77 and have been RVing for almost 50 years. The way I deal with the physical things is have it done, if I can't do it. I am not mechanically inclined and have learned when it doesn't work it must be broken and it needs to be fixed (by a pro most of the time). We figure we only have about 20 years or so.

RE: Tiffin Motorhomes????
We have an 06 Phaeton which we bought new and dearly love it!! We like to go to Red Bay occasionaly, but you can take it to ANY dealer and have them call Tiffin to get approval for warrany work. The back up service (in and out of warranty) IMHO, is the best in the industry. This is our 7th MH and we are sold on Tiffin products and especially on Bob Tiffin, a President that you can talk to about any problem!

RE: Tires
It is usually considered smart to change your MH tires at 6 years. Some recommend changing them at 5 years.

RE: Chassis batteries discharging-Tiffin Phaeton
I have an 06 Phaeton which we bought new. I keep it plugged in ALL of the time and my batteries have not failed me once. I do check the water (distilled) level at least once a month and top it off if needed.

CGs between Maine & VA
My route from VA to Maine is I-81 to I-84 at Scranton, PA. I-84 to I-90 in MA. I-495 North to I-95. Any decent Campgrounds between VA and Maine?

RE: gorilla glue for exterior
I have found that J&B Weld will hold almost ANYTHING. I too do not like the after oozing of Gorilla glue.

RE: Digital Converters are they all created equal...
Don't forget: If you have a new HD ready TV, you will NOT need a converter. I just found out when my older front RV went South. Bought a new Toshiba and it does not require a converter.

RE: West Virginia
We just spent 4 days at Stonewall Jackson State Park in WV and without doubt, it is the very NICEST State Park we have ever stayed in. We have been MHoming for 40 years. This park has everything.

Changing font
I am using Windows XP and use Word to write. Suddenly I cannot change the font on existing files that were created in Word. I can change the font as before, when I create a new file! Any suggestions?

Digital converter boxes
I bought my two converter boxes from Radio Shack yesterday for my Coach's TVs. Each box contains a remote. Will the remote I presently use on the Tvs when connected to cable be used,or will I have to use the new remote(s) with the new boxes?

RE: Tiffin Motorhomes
I have had both: a Diplomat and presently a Phaeton. Hands down, IMHO the Phaeton is a much better product, not counting Bob Tiffin and his legendary backing of his product.

RE: lobster & New England states
We go every year to Boothbay Harbor, ME to eat lobster. There is a fishermen's C0-0p that brings them in by the boat load and you pick your size and they are cookied right on the deck overlooking the water. The clams are great also. We are now on our way to Boothbay Harbor and should be there next week. Shorehills Campground is a good one and our favorite.

RE: Freightliner recall
I too got my letter about the Freightliner recall yesterday. A month ago at Gaffney, I had my yearly complete work done and nothing was mentioned, so I guess they were not aware of the recall at that time. I plan to call tomorrow to get this taken care of because we plan to leave this weekend for a month or so travels.
