RE: Where to Stay in Vegas?
We had done some research and Oasis RV Resort and LV RV Resort was 2 we had looked at, we like to just relax, maybe venture out to eat and check out the sites, but not too much of a gambler, may take in a show if possible. Thanks for the input, Marvin
Where to Stay in Vegas?

RE: Need a Water hose under the Sink Slide out?
You are probably right about the 3/8 hose, I though I could find the 1/2" like the one that came out, but so far no luck. I do know that there are several of the hoses, some on the Hydra hot, they are the same fittings and hose just shorter.
I did go to a pluming supplier and he was no help either, all stock the same size hoses, I even went to a place that make hoses, and they did not have the correct fittings or some excuse.
I did not want to use hose clamps like a shade tree mechanic.
What would be the best RV supply house in this Area, Anyone?
Need a Water hose under the Sink Slide out?
I have a Leak in a Nylon Braided hose under the Toe Kick that run to the Sink, it is a 76" long X 1/2 FIP X 1/2 FIP and the hose is 1/2", I have been to Lowes Homeimprovement, no luck. It is a Watts hose but no one can find the #., I did find a braided hose with the correct ends but it was a 3/8", course being as long as it is I really wanted to replace it with the same size hose. I am in Pomona, Ca. for a few days.
All help appreciated.
RE: Inverter and house Batteries?
Unless they have changed recently, the Sine Wave Freedom will use the same control panel as the RS3000 (on edit- just make sure you get the Freedom SW 3012 and not just the Freedom SW 3000). If it were me, I would spend $100 on diagnoses and estimate for repair for the old one though.
Chris, I have checked every angle that I can think of 2 different techs have told me the same as xantrex, cost more to repair than to replace, I was hoping someone had been thro this same issue and could up with some good advice.
Magnum wants me to go thro their distributor with no discounts, so far their cost is about 1k more for their 2800watt vs xantrex 3000watt after their previous customer discount of 30%.
Thats with installation.
Thought someone may have some info on where to purchase the magnum at a better price.
RE: Inverter and house Batteries?
Look guys, I am probably the most checkinest person on the planet, I have checked everything at least 25 times did hard resets, if any one has any usable information please speak up.
I had my doubts about the batteries but they were 7yrs old and I was near lifelines mfg plan5, ln all a good time to purchase new batteries, with a tremendous discount.
I thought it was the inverter from the start, did not want to install new lnverter on 7yr old batteries. I still have the old ones, anyone interested?
Inverter and house Batteries?
I have been having a problem with my inverter, giving off fault code 207, batteries need charging or replaced. I did replace the batteries, with 4 new lifeline, 8d, still have the fault code, having gone through the resetting feature several times, I think now I have to replace the Inverter.
I have the Xantrex 3000 pure sine wave, not in production anymore, now it is a Freedom 3000, and needs a new remote pannel also, help the economy recover, My question is someone had recommened the Magnum Inverter, just wanting advice, is anyone running the Magnum, and with what results? I think they are both about the same price?
Does anyone have a place to purchase to get the best price?
RE: Winne to Country Coach
Gary, Just picked up on this Thread, the Photo's were taken down at Tom Johnson's. Was wondering if the color scheme is the same as mine,(signature)?
We have owned ours since 09 and have been very happy, did do new tires this year, Michlyns. very happy with those. Just replaced the House batteries yesterday. We have the Lifeline 8D (Residental Refrig)., Now those are not Cheap either., am having some issues with the Xantrex Inverter, was displaying Fault Code 207 Replace batteries, or ReCharge. Since they were OEM, and dated 06, we decided to go ahead and replace those. Have not tried the Inverter yet, fingers X=crossed.
The Ladder issue we had discussed, I am working on it Now, will let you know what happens.
We are traveling Now and in LA, near topline mfg., waiting for them to return may call now. We are From NC originally. Happy Travels..
RE: Dental work, Mexico
We have been to Progresso before and had lots of work done there, crowns and partials etc., this time we did not want to drive all the way to S. Texas as we were heading to Calif., so we chose to stop in Yuma?, I have read lots of post about the dental work in Algodoones.
RE: Yuma area, Best Parks?
Thanks to all for the information,
There are a lot of RV parks with the Palms in the name in Yuma, can you be a little more specific about the location etc. It does sound like something we would be interested in, not too sure how long we will stay, it all depends on our dental work, I may need an implant, and D/W wants some work done also, it will more than likely be at least 2-3 weeks.
RE: Yuma area, Best Parks?
Let me describe "Good" in my mind, I am thinking, concrete pad, site large enough to extend slides and not hit neighbor camper, and roads large enough to get a 43' MH in and out, also when I go in and out of my MH it does not look like I've been working at the quarry.
Would like to stay fairly close to the Algodoones border, since my primary reason is to get a tooth fixed, capped or extracted. Haven't been there in years, so any advice would be a huge help.
any comments on Linda Vista Campground?
Yuma area, Best Parks?
Looking for Best RV Parks in YUMA? Would like some Grass, but still want the Concrete Patio etc. Good 50amp, with Pull through, and large enough to be able to Open Door on MH. (not funny). We have stayed in some pretty shady parks in our travels., some called Resorts, Oh my??,
Want to get some dental work done in Los Algodones, Remarks? Advice etc?
Dental work, Mexico
Thinking of going to los algodones for some dental work? Have been checking post of the past, but what about now, maybe in the next 2 weeks? Best Dental for general dentistry? General border crossing, parking etc., best place.
RE: Tucson, Rincon(west) or Lazydays?
Thanks to all of you, great information, we are now in Tucson, as of today. Stayed 2 days at Las Cruces,,
and Yes to Desert Hawk, we did get into those winds, all day, or most of the day, I think in El Paso it was gust to 55 mph. terrible, dust too., but we knew about the possibility of winds. The I-10 was closed for a few hours through the section from Las Cruces to Arizona.
We are going to squat here for about a week, at Lazydays. Pretty Park.
Inverter Problem?
I have been having a problem with my Inverter(3000psw) xantrex, put up code 207, low or batteries need replacing, some how I do not think that it is the batteries, having done a load test they do not appear to need replacing (have the AGM batteries). we used a 30amp service the nite before this happened. Now the Inverter will not produce power. Just wanting to know if maybe it is a board or something that I can repair? Did not want to stab in the dark by changing out batteries. I have done all the simple things, like disconnecting the power etc. to reset Inverter, but it goes back into the fault code as soon as I disconnect shore power. It does seem and show that it is charging the batteries. still the same as usual. any ides's
Tucson, Rincon(west) or Lazydays?
We are going to spend a few days in Tucson and wanted to know if anyone had any information on the best Park to stay? We had kinda narrowed it down between Lazydays RV Resort, or Rincon West Rv Resort. We have a large rig and wanted a pull through? All information is welcome, including best food places and things not to miss.
RE: Ideas for CG's between Abilene and Las Cruces?
We found a site at Monahan, tx, only one site left, not the best rv park but for one nite, maybe it will work out.
Anyone traveling along I-20 from Abilene maybe to El Paso, there are thousands of Oil Field workers, they have all the rv sites taken. Traffic around Big Springs, Midland and Odessa is horrible with trucks.
Never seen so many cars parked in warehouse parking lots, workers I guess. Did I say Dusty, whow, dry 90 deg.
