RE: lost my co pilot
So sorry to hear this, you have my deepest sympathy, I don't know what I'd do in your case and I pray that I never have to find out.
RE: Your first post on the forum
found mine, 1st one was 4/14/07, worrying about getting a little better mileage, what a ridiculous concept, don't know what I was worried about, we were going to go anyways, regardless of mileage. :B
RE: fresh water tank
Agreeing with everyone else, bad tech, not a bad pump, sounds like he's more interested in Camping World selling you a new pump, and "Oh yah, while we were replacing the pump, we found a faulty check valve in the city water fill". :R
RE: Moab Campgrounds
We stayed at OK RV Park, out in Spanish Valley, about 5 mi. South of Moab, away from the crowds, not a resort, but a decent CG with FHU, laundry, small store, and on Passport America, very reasonable.
RE: Low overpasses, etc.
Measure the height of the RV. Then pay attention to the height markings on overpasses. Add at least 6 inches as a safety measure.
You will almost always see signs well in advance advising of any low overpasses.Don't just measure to the roof top, measure to the highest thing sticking up, like the AC unit, if that's the tallest.
RE: Help with Cody, Wyoming campgrounds
we did koa the first trip and now stay at buffalo bill state park a few miles west of cody.X-2 on Buffalo Bill State Park
RE: membership rv parks
8K, for access to 81 campgrounds, country wide, rather restrictive, No thanks, I'll stick with my Passport America for $44 a year with 2000 +/- campgrounds, I can find one pretty much anywhere.
RE: Future Rv technology
All kinds of whiz-bang doodads, but first maybe they should learn how to build a basic box on wheels that is reliable.X-2, Rather see this than adding overpriced garbage that I don't need in the first place.
RE: Where would YOU go?
I'll be the contrarian here: when I need my soul restored, I head for the mountains/river/beach/lake/forest. I find no comfort or peace in a big city; but that's just me.X-2, but also, that's just me, we don't go to big cities, and anything I haven't see there, I won't miss.
RE: Niagara Falls, NY State Park info needed
It is important to realize there are two sides t the falls. The Canada side has much better views. I don't know what issues you may run into if trying to cross the border with the dog, but if you are going to Niagara you don't want to miss it from the other side. Like someone said above, it would be worth it to use a boarder for a day.While true that some of the views from Canada are better, we found that the Canadian side seemed more commercialized, and the US side was more of a State Park setting, (which it is) unless you get away from the river.
RE: Yosemite/Kings Canyon/Sequoia National Parks
If you haven't already made reservations for IN Yosemite, you're probably too late, we were too late also in '15, so we stayed at The Forks CG at Bass Lake, quite a drive into Yosemite, (49 mi.).
For Kings Canyon & Sequoia we stayed at Sequoia RV Resort,( personally think the term RESORT was a bit of a stretch ) outside the parks, it's the closest place with FHU's and at 90+ degrees, we were happy, a real experience getting to but worked well for us.
RE: Any Motorhome CG near Boston not requiring mortgage
If you are eligible, check the Milcamps up there. Fourth Cliff and Hanscomb AFB
http://www.militarycampgrounds.us/massachusetts/fourth-cliff-recreation-areaX-2, Hanscomb has worked well for us on a couple occasions.
RE: Camp Reservations
Because the DW and I don't like surprises I make reservations for all of our planned stops along our route. For me it's less work than trying to find a place to set down for the night after a day of driving.X-2, I like site specific reservations, I don't want to get somewhere just to be stuck in some unlevel, low tree, narrow, short site that is basically all that's left.
RE: New Onan 4000 wont start
Probably means nothing in your case but, on our first trip to Yellowstone, our Onan started, then quit, did it a couple times, while looking around, I noticed the altimeter setting was set at the lowest setting, in Yellowstone we were at 6000ft +/-, soon as I reset it to 5000+ it started & ran without a problem. :h
