RE: Buying a Former Rental Class C. How many of us out there?
Does anyone have recommendations on where to try and sell their 19G? I've been told RV Trader is a good place. It's just on Craigslist and FB Marketplace now, but I've only gotten a few tire kickers there.
When I was looking I found the most that I was interested were found at Smart RV Guide
There are some 19Gs listed there.

RE: Electric Smoker for Long Term
Well for long term I can recommend the SMOKINTEX I have had my 1400 for more than 15 years,has never failed and still works as it did when I bought it.
A lot heavier construction than the others mentioned here.It is made more for the commercial market but the smaller one like mine has that same quality and is small enough to put on the hitch mounted platform on the rear of my RV,I use it at home and camping.

RE: Fresh water tank drain.
On my Fleetwood Tioga the drain is attached to the water tank it looks like this,just turn the handle so it lines up with the pipe and it will drain. You may have to remove the plywood cover covering the tank to access it.

RE: Renting your RV
There have been a few on this forum that own Former Rentals and have done that and seem to be happy with it and the way it helps pay for their RV. Here is one example
They list on RV Share and seem to do very well. They also list on Outdoorsy as do many other owners of Former Rentals,Here is a listing for some of them You can search in your area just put in the search Majestic.
On a personal note I have run across a few campers that had rented them thru RV Share and Outdoorsy. One told me that the person that he rented from had 2 Majestics that he rented out.
One trip recently,a Chinese couple parked one space away from me and I happened to ask how they liked their Former Rental.
I was surprised when they told me that they had rented from a man in their Chinese Community that had 5 of them and rented mostly within that community. They told me that they had reserved months in advance just to get an open spot. I seemed that he was doing very well.
It is a risk that some are willing to take.

RE: Buying a Former Rental Class C. How many of us out there?
WOW that dealer seems to just not be interested in doing the job and is blowing smoke up you know where
That awning is one of the easiest to install and work,I have done both.
Parts for this awning are readily available from multiple sources ,Amazon.E bay and many RV Parts houses,I bought a part I need on E Bay,it was cheaper that all the others.
It is to bad that that CA dealership treated you this way,I would suggest looking for a RV shop around you and have them install an awning. I had mine put on by Camping World and they did an excellent job.

RE: Smog Test Mystery
He told you what it was.......Next time, drive it around to warm it up.
I have a 2006 Tioga like the OP
Here is a news flash for you all. I just went to my smog guy that I have used for over 20 years.
Seems that the rules have changed some. He told me to bring it right in without driving it around first. I have always followed his advice before to drive it around,now he said just to bring it in.It seems that the computer has all the info needed and it does not have to be reset with a long drive.
Wish I knew that before my 20 min drive to warm it up and use all that High Priced Fuel..:B

RE: Buying a Former Rental Class C. How many of us out there?
What Brand Name/Make and Model that CA seems to find to difficult to use and install? It seems that they can't install it correctly if they put yours on backwards,pretty incompetent in my opinion.
The manual ones are fairly easy to install,I helped my Son In Law install one on his trailer not long ago.Plenty of YouTube videos out there that show how to do it.

Yes,I had the same problem on mine.Water leaked thru then came out just as yours did. Check inside under bunk and walls for water intrusion.

RE: Having Difficulty Finding Replacement Roof Vent Covers
I have to agree with enblethen,using this guide it seems to be the one,showing the outside and inside of vent lid.
https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51MRpzoL6xL.jpg height=550
If you haven't done this before Here is a short video that will help you.
You may need a new seal that goes on the metal edge this will make it a tight seal This is what you need
Replace like this
Also Maxxair covers are a great thing to have to make the vent lids last a lot longer,I replaced all my vent lids then covered them with the Maxxair covers 10 years ago and they are like new today.

RE: Koni or Bilstein?
This has come up many times here and it seems to be equally divided,the Koni shocks are about twice the cost and get some good reviews and I know of One Member that would gladly exchange his for the Bilsteins that he used on a previous RV,expensive is not necessarily better.
The Koni shock was not in production for Class C when I wanted new shocks but even now I would not opt to buy them.
I will recommend the Bilsteins they did not make the ride any harsher and stopped the porpoising and the ride is smoother and cornering has lot less body roll.
I have used Bilstein shocks on all my vehicles for many years and have been pleased with their performance.

RE: Quality in a class C
Some pretty good answers so far,it seems to me that the quality has gone down in the last several years.
So older ones have a lot better quality,my 2006 Tioga has not given me any problems as far as the quality of the build,All doors, cabinets and drawers are tight and working as they should, the fit and finish is still very good. Even all the tank sensors work!
Things to look for is not only quality of the build when looking for a used unit but also the maintenance that was given the unit.
Another avenue to look at is the Rental Market there you have a quality build that has to stand up to vigorous use and is maintained well to keep in on the road and making money.
There is more than 140 Forum members here that have chosen to do that and are happy with their choice.
