RE: Where have all the members gone on this forum?

RE: Getting propane tanks in and out

Wife and I are in our late 70's and it's getting to be a struggle but we do it together. Often a kind neighbor will help. Thinking of going down to 3-20 pounders instead of 2-30 pound. We will just store the extra outside until we need it.

RE: Need advice on selling hitch and adapter

Check the price for comparable units on E-trailer. You may have spent too much for it and are now trying to sell it for too much. I also think you will have your best luck if you split them up and sell them separately.

RE: Using a Cpap in my AF 27-5

Go to the manufacturer of your C-Pap and see what options they offer for 12 volt power. You may need to carry a seper3te 12 volt battery to power it.

RE: Point to ponder, hornets nest stir

Sounds like the old "With that truck, you can pull anything on the lot" story. What do they know or care? You have to do your own due diligence and make your own conclusion. They are there to sell RVs.

RE: Buffing out hazing RV

You can buff that til the cows come home. It won't last. The only real cure is to have it painted. I've had two fifth wheels painted. If you shop you can find places that will do it for around $1,000. Forget the RV dealers. Go to a big truck bodyshop.

RE: Patio Mat Anchoring

I use gutter spikes they are long are about 6 inches long and are normally used to attach rain gutters to houses. I slip a fender washer on them and drive them flush with the carpet.
B.O. Just another example of some idiot answering a question before he read it all...OOPS! that was me, sorry.

RE: Residential Fridge battery run time

The nice thing about a residential fridge is they only take a couple of hours to cool down.

RE: Impact of fuel prices on travel

Don't care, you can either afford to do this or you stay home. I would like to see it cheaper but that's life. Nobody said this was a cheap hobby.

RE: Additional fuel tank

FWIW, when I towed a 39' FW, I found the added aux tank (mine was a 65 gallon) was just about the best investment I made for RV'ng. Since we would almost always go out to dinner on overnight stops, never had to worry about stopping for fuel and would just fill up each evening. IIRC, I had (based on stock tank, extra tank, towing mileage) about 1300 miles that I could go between fillups. Made for a very pleasant 5-6-700 mile day, which was about the limit of what I wanted to drive in any case.

RE: Additional fuel tank

I have a RDS gravity feed tank. This is my second truck that I have installed it in. Use their installation kit with the check valve. Works perfectly. I would do it again in a heartbeat. Been using it for 10 years.

RE: giving it up

At 76 years, I'm getting very close. The bending over to hook everything up about kills me. Been getting some new equipment to try and stretch this out a little longer. Got an electric cord reel, a new soft water hose that's very easy to roll up and I'm looking at some sewer hose options. Going down to 20# propane tanks from the 30# it has so I can lift them. Longer hand railing on the steps. Auto level is a blessing. I guess it's all about adapting.
