RE: Crock Pot
I think you are safe, if someone had a fire because of a crock pot there may have been other variables involved like a frayed cord or old crock pot etc. I haven't heard of any fires caused by crock pots. I guess we could worry about every electric appliance in our RV including the Air conditioner. You should be safe...if not...that is what insurance is for. Enjoy your home cooked meals in the crock pot. This post is making me hungry.

RE: What's the narrowest you have had to back up your trailer?
The trailer should be no wider than 8'6" as this is the legal maximum width. Most travel trailers are 8'. If you are including the awning etc, this shouldn't make a difference if it's up high as your water meter from the house is down low. I'm sure with a flat surface and straight shot you will make it, if you need to turn the wheels slightly on the tow vehicle to get in or out of there It could be too tight. Go slow and giver it a try, worst case you have to drive it back out.

RE: Kool Seal Rubber roof treament for a 5er?
Don't think Kool seal is going to make that much of a difference if you have a white rubber roof. Perhaps get a more powerful a/c or install another one. Is your a/c centrally ducted?

RE: nervous!!!!!
Put your mind at ease, there is no problem with using the adapter and as mentioned most have 50 & 30 amp recptacles where no adapter is needed.

RE: RV/mobile home park in south texas
Victoria Palms in Donna Texas is very nice although may be a bit pricey if you're planning on leaving the fifth wheel there on a lot for the whole year. Check it out online there are plenty of places in that area that will suit your needs.

RE: enclosed underbelly aerodynamics
I no longer have a travel trailer but many of our friends do. The enclosed underbelly does definately make it easier to tow. As for the extra weight causing lower gas mileage....Hogwash! The weight is only half the issue with gas mileage...drag is the other half. I would most definately get the enclosed underbelly option if the cost is not too high.

RE: WHICH SUV OR TRUCK IS BEST TO FLAT TOW
Sorry can't comment on the towed part of your question but I have had great success with the brake buddy. It did have some problems when I had an earlier version but they were quite happy to replace it. I can honestly say their service is second to none. If you're having problems with it perhaps give them a call, they are easy to deal with and very helpful.

RE: ArmorAll Question
Turtle wax makes a good armor all type product. It's in a green bottle and if memory serves me correctly it's called "formula 2000". Sorry don't have a bottle handy to check the exact name but it works well.

RE: How bad does a toad get beaten up?
We also use Protect-a-Tow and it works very well. Before using any type of Protection our car was full of gravel rash in the front hood area not to mention a broken headlight (not cheap to fix) and badly pitted windshield. We ended up buying a newer toad a few years back and the Protect-a-Tow keeps that******from hitting the toad and keeps the back of our coach and rad compartment much cleaner. We wouldn't travel anywhere without it, paved or unpaved roads. We have a diesel pusher with side exhaust but I believe there may be a problem using this product if the exhaust exits out the rear.

RE: The HHR was shot...
Your best bet is Protect-a-Tow, it doesn't create a wind drag like those big cumbersome shields and real easy to store away when not being used. We've had ours for a few years and many miles of travel and no stone chips on our toad. The price is right too! Protect-a-Tow

RE: 98 jeep wrangler front hood and windshield cover
I have been very happy with Protect-a-Tow, been using it for a few years now and wouldn't tow without it! We're looking at getting a new toad and the wrangler was an option, any pro's/cons on towing a wrangler?

RE: Rock Guards Protect MH & toad - or not?
I can definately vouch for Protect-a-Tow, it works very well. By no means is it a pain to use, it is very simple to put it on and very effective. The nice thing is it protects the car, the coach and the tow bar. We also found that the back up camera stays much cleaner while driving in wet weather. We've tried other devices but have been very happy with this one.

RE: Guardian and/or tow shields
I just disconnect the two connection points from the toad and hang the Protect-a-Tow from my roof ladder.

RE: Guardian and/or tow shields
I would go with the Protect-a-Tow. Been very happy with ours, many miles travelled and no dings. Most effective and likely least expensive.
