RE: Stolen battery

Do you think if they catch the guy who stole your battery that he will be charged?
Is that an intended pun? :-)

RE: Moderator

I am a moderator on a motorcycle forum. It is nearly a full time job!
A few years back, I was one of about 10 moderators for a group of parents/caregivers of kids with brain tumors. Talk about a job!
That would definitely be a handful!

RE: Moderator

I do wish Boatycall all the best. In his short time as Mod, he did a good job and made it evident that he was truly interested in seeing the forum be a better place.
X3 I hope whatever he is facing aor going through resolves for the better.

RE: Fifth wheel VS Class A

I have owned a class A, a class C, and two FW's. My preference is the FW. It is more versatile for our life style and I have to have a truck anyway. FW and TV are much less expensive to maintain - and purchase - than an MH and toad.
Now if I were really wealthy, a diesel push and a Ferrari would be the ticket. But where would I put my motorcycles and kayaks?

With your TV, mountains should be no problem. Neither should stopping. Good show.

RE: Where are you going for Thanksgiving?

We are heading to Hayesville, NC. We will most likely partake our Thanksgiving dinner at a restaurant.

RE: What is the best brake controller

I have been following this thread and other threads on on other forums about DirecLink. If I had hydraulic disc brakes on my toyhauler, I would purchase one. However since I have a 2000 F-350 and electric trailer brakes, I can't see where DirecLink link offers any advantage over Maxbrake. In fact, it appears to me that there are more electronics involved and, therefore, more that can go wrong. I don't see how you can really beat a controller that is tied to both the TV's brakes and the TV's electronics.

RE: Dually or not

I am on my second dually. It is an everyday driver as well as a tow vehicle. Very stable. Go for a dually. You will be glad you did.

RE: RAM Long Hauler....

The MegaCab man vans don't do anything for me, but would like a crew cab 10' bed with extra fuel capacity.

If Yota ever did make a real truck, I would consider buying. The build quality is sure to be better than the big 3 for sure.
I am not sure I agree. My wife has an 01 Tundra supercab and the workmanship in my 01 F-150 crewcab is better.

RE: What is a goosneck hitch?

Rojovar, that is a very subjective question. It is sorta like asking which oil brand is best. If you are buying used, there are certain model years in each of those brands to avoid. I suggest you browse through the Tow Vehicles section. There is a lot of good info there. If I were buying new, I would look closely at Ford or Dodge; but that is a personal preference based on several factors.
I have a 2000 Ford with the well proven 7.3 liter diesel. I will keep this truck as long as I possibly can. It is much cheaper and easier to service than the new diesels of all of the companies.

RE: What is a goosneck hitch?

I would suggest that you consider getting the F350. There is very little difference in price and ride, but it doesn't limit your choice of fifth wheels as much as an F250 would. If I were towing a large fifth wheel, I would get the dual rear wheel.
+1 I agree.
