RE: Popping sounds from Winnebago
We bought a new Itasca Horizon in 2001 and it did the same thing. I was told was/is air in the hydraylic lines and as it worked it's way out, the rig would settle. It did stop making these noises after a few months. I think the longest we stayed in one spot was a couple of months, soo I really cannot relate to being set up longer than that.

RE: Hard wired surge protector
Don't know what kind of failure Dodge Guy is speaking of, but my Progressive portable has refuse to pass power a number of times due to low voltage. Perhaps a lightning strike would require a rebuild at the factory but I have yet to have a failure that would need a rebuild.

RE: Seen in the campground: mega generator rear-rack
Not sure that is indeed a generator. Would the frame of a small trailer like that, even with an extra axle be heavy enough to accomodate a generator of that weight?
Also looks like a hitch w/o the insert in the center below the generator.

RE: Diminshed Value Claims
Diminished Value is a legitimate claim on trucks and automobile. THe amount may be in question when dealing with the insurance company but in the eyes of the potential buyer when the vehicle is sold, it is worth less. Mention this to a dealer you might want to sell your vehicle to. "You know this car was wrecked, but it was completely repaired". The offer he made will likely go down.
You guys are insinuating there is something wrong with asking for deminished value. There is not. The amount in question is another matter. The insurance company of the at-fault party will say it is much lower. Let this same vehicle get totaled and you will get the line, 'well, you know it has been wrecked and that lowers the value'.

RE: “I was shocked with just how white it was there,” she said.
Sounds like the OP is looking to stir a pot that does not exist. I have no use for that kind of talk when it affects something I enjoy doing. There is enough politics and political correctness on the outside without trying to get some controversy started in a pretty decent group here on this forum.

RE: looking for quick access bathroom advice
Bless you Mike, health is the reason we bought a Class A rather than a 5th wheel. Quick and easy access to toilet. We are now at the point of a wheelchair lift on the 3911 Newmar. It gives me room to get around her and help put her in bed and take her out, in and out of shower with relative ease. Same with toilet area. We are able to close a door and folding door for privacy, but sometimes one hsa to do what had to be done in order to get the mission accomplished.
Keep fighting the beast and never give up.

RE: Water in furnace bay
What would happen if you put a 1/8 or 3/16 hole there for drainage until the solution can be found. My Essence had the same problem, but only a few drops.
That problem now belongs to another fellow with pretty good mechanical ability.

RE: Tow dolly empty - 1500 miles
Concrete blocks or anything that is not absolutely immovable on a bouncing dolly is asking for bad crash. Imagine the ballast coming loose during a bounce on a crowded road at interstate speed.
Rent a dolly

RE: Ford Questions
Just acquired a 2014 31' Newmar. How do I remove the hub caps on 19.5 tires? How does the "Tow Mode" function. Haven't got the books. Thanks in advance for assistance.
Depends on the type wheel, but if the caps look like chrome lug nuts (about 8 of them) there will be two that hold the hubcap on. Look carefully to determine which is fake and which holds the caps on. Somewhere in your rig, there is likely a T handle tool with a socket fits these "nuts". Carefully loosen the two 'real' nuts and the cap should come off. Good news is these two are 180 degrees from each other.

RE: Cant hook up a whole house generator
You need to get the city/county inspector involved ASAP. If this is as you say, there may be a lawsuit in your future and a licensing issue for the electrian and the contractor

RE: Route 212 over Bear Tooth Pass.
Lot of Jacklegs take it as a challenge or their 'right' to RV across the pass to or from Cody. Never mind the others on the road following or meeting these yahoos. We have done it a couple or three times in just a Jeep or Honda Element and it was great. Leave the RV and make the drive. In the Spring it is magnificent. Lakes up top still frozen over (quite a sight for us from the South)
Road is crooked but very doable in a normal sized vehicle.

RE: Possibly upgrading from TT to Class A
I like(d) each MH we have had. Sure is nice to fire up the genset and have coffee on a cold day, or pull over and make a trip to the john. Is this worth the difference in the price? Hmmmm? good question.

We have a portable for the very reason described above. It has saved us a couple of times with low power situations
