RE: SPARE TIRE
I carry a Visa card. Lot less weight and less stress. A 19.5 tire can be purchased and mounted anywhere. In over 50 years of RVing I've only had 2 flats. Don't overthink this...JMHO.....Dennis

RE: New old ride
:S That’s egg on my face. Proof the smart phone shouldn’t be trusted.
My wife went shopping the other day for a new outfit. She texted me a picture and asked me if it made her look fat!
I texted back...Noooo!
My phone 'corrected' it to Moo!
I'm in deep doo doo right now...look at the phone before pushing send....Dennis

RE: Monaco - Front Slide Controller
I have a 07, 42ft Camelot -- Look in the rear run bay on the curb side -- It should be on the upper left hand corner -- Black plate with white connectors -- Bill Willard
That's where mine is too.....Dennis

RE: Almost lost a mud flap...
FYI. Mud flaps are not to keep your toad clean. Mud flaps are there for the protection of other vehicles following you. Your rear tires, like those on trucks, pick up rocks and debris from the road and hurl them skyward looking for the windshield of some poor unsuspecting fool using the highway with you. The mud flap normally will direct that downward back toward the pavement.....Dennis

RE: Pickle on My Entry Door Grab Handle
SuperBus,
I have the solution;
I will take one for the team and trade our mint 1 owner Kountry Star for your London Aire. And seeing as I'm such a team player, I won't even charge you for the swap.
Please let me know how you'd like to move ahead with this and we'll make it happen. :B :B :B
Am I helpful? :h
Can he keep the pickle???....:W....Dennis

RE: Electrical issue
FYI the 'breakers' on the inverter are different than ones you find in your electrical panel. They are usually button breakers. These are very small and easily missed. Look for a button about 1/8" in diameter. Push it in and see if that works....Dennis

Thank you. Seems like he would have continued that thread instead of starting a new one. Appreciate your input.....Dennis

RE: Good trip-bad repair shop
I'm interested in what happened. What caused the overheating and what was the eventual fix? And what kind of coach do you have?

RE: Seeking advice for full time rv living
Been full timing for 11 years and over 100,000 miles - less than 10k of that on the interstates - rest is all back roads. You'll love the freedom and lifestyle. It can get lonesome sometimes if you don't have human company but your dog will suffice for much of it. Depending on your health, look into service dogs or at least a therapy dog. That way your dog can explore with you. Select your state of residency carefully. We chose South Dakota because of no income tax, no luxury tax, 4% sales tax, no inspections and cheap license plate renewals. We use a mail box drop for our addy. Socking away some cash on a regular basis is a good idea for repairs, since it sounds like you aren't too handy with a screwdriver. Read books on RV repair. Many 'fixes' are easy and knowledge is a great thing. Don't plan your trips. Simply drive til you feel like stopping. If you get stuck there's always a WalMart or Home Depot you can crash in for the night. Casinos are great spots too. Look at Passport America for discount campgrounds. Join Thousand Trails, RPI etc. Lots of discounts. If you're a vet there's tons of military campgrounds too. Keep looking and asking questions....Dennis

RE: Which route
We avoid tolls and interstates whenever possible. Lots of interesting things to see and do. Just make sure you're not in a hurry. You'll see interesting churches, farmhouses, cafes and everything in between. Stop and smell the roses along the way. Lot's of working folks in the midwest. Up at dawn and asleep just after dusk....Dennis

RE: extended warranty
Since you've already had an extended warranty, I assume you know about the contract language. For those that don't, make sure the contract you buy is an "Exclusionary Contract". An exclusionary contract simply state what is NOT COVERED. If it's NOT in the contract, it's covered. Makes things much easier. A little more expensive but there are no surprises. Also, as with any contract, follow the stated procedures as written....Dennis

RE: Fried battery
Batteries fail. Generally 5 yrs is max but some 6VDC last longer. Anyway, my guess is your battery failed internally and cooked itself. Follow your manual's advice. Check your batteries monthly to ensure water levels are up. Also, if you have a battery bank, one weak battery will drag the others with it....Dennis

RE: Route from Astoria, OR to Wenatchee, WA
We've done both and really prefer the US 12 route. You won't have issues with either but the southern route is more scenic. IMO.....Dennis

RE: States Visited Map Rules
1. States I've driven through
2. States I've spent money in.
3. States I've visited.
4. States I've fueled up in.
Choice is yours. We try to spend at least 6 weeks in each state. 2 in the northern part, 2 in the middle and 2 in the southern. This allows us ample time to really visit and see everything that state offers. Ca and Tx are exceptions. This applies to mostly western states as some of the smaller states can be done in much less time. But, really the choice is yours. We've seen people pull up, jump out of their car, take a picture of the Grand Canyon and drive off. IMO that is not visiting nor actually enjoying what is offered. Hike down to Supai village, swim behind the waterfalls, enjoy life.....Dennis

RE: extended warranty
I had two policies with Wholesale Warranties. Jeff Shelton is above average and they did step in to assist with a claim. Highly recommend them. Be sure to ask for a blank copy of the warranty before signing. He will email it to you so you can look it over to ensure it's the right policy for your particular situation. They are very helpful.....Dennis
