RE: Spare tire
I carry a mounted, trued and balanced spare in the compartment Fleetwood provided for that purpose. Also in that compartment are tools, fluids and a complete set of spare filters. I'm not strong enough to change a tire myself but Good Sam ERS is.

RE: Who are the "no pets allowed" parks?
I have had the very unique ability to always end up next to a RV with yappy dogs in a CG. My solution is to stay where quiet is available. My favorite CG in Cape May doesn't allow pets which I prefer. I'm neither a dog lover or a dog hater and I'll pet and scratch, say a Golden for hours. But, in the morning at 5 AM, I don't want to awake to yappy dogs as has been too often the case. My solution when traveling cross country is to not stop at a CG unless necessary. My worst experience was at the Pointe South, SC KOA where my neighbor had 11 dogs in a cage outside my window. Yes, the staff was aware of the dogs as they walked thru the area frequently. The dogs owner had to move about 150 feet away to use their cell phone as the noise level was extreme.

$80.00 per month for secure outdoor storage in Vero Beach, Florida. 24/7 access. PM me for additional info if desired. Vero Beach is on the east central coast and is well below the frost line.

RE: Air Dryer Filters Replacement
It took me about 45 minutes. It was easier for me to disconnect the lines and drop the entire filter housing to change the filter. I ordered the filter from Freightliner. I can't remember the cost-maybe $109.00?

RE: Success or failure: help from the manufacturer
Instant great support from Fleetwood. Requested electrical schematics and they were emailed in just a few minutes. Hard copies were received by snail mail a few days later. Within a few minutes of receiving the emailed schematics, my electrical problem was traced to a dimple switch on the inverter not being in the correct position.

RE: Electric blankets OK for RVs--Sunbeam says NO
I've been using newer Sunbeam heated mattress pads for years. No problems running them on the inverter. I like getting getting into a nice warm bed plus I leave it set on low heat all night.

RE: buy back
It took me about a year for Ford to buy back my 2002 F53 motorhome using the Florida Lemon Law. I would have preferred that they fixed it.

My C-7 runs at 176 also. It quickly reaches this temp and stays there.

RE: Pulling a toad
Only when stopping for a lot of lights do I notice a difference in mileage towing a 7100 pound truck. Out on the Interstate I don't see much of a difference. This is with a Cat towing a Cummins (grin)

RE: Charge toad battery from M/H?
I use a 5 amp model "Toad-Charge" because my Dodge Durango toad gearshift display consumes 250ma when the key is turned to unlock the steering wheel. The Brake Buddy is set to low sensitivity so it rarely operates.

RE: Campground with no water hook-up
I fill at home before leaving. My water comes from the county RO plant and is crystal clear and odorless. I add about 6oz's of Clorox before filling the tank.

RE: Extra insurance on your "empty for 6 months" house?
We are also sunbirds. The solution for us is to have a full timer couple live in our home during the summer. This is a win-win for both of us.
