RE: AC shroud
It sounds like it may be, for lack of a better term, hinged. Remove the screws and it
might just come right off.

RE: '14 Bullet water leak source?
Man what a drag. Better get yourself a screw gun and utility knife. If you have to cut the liner there is a special tape made for that stuff when you put it back together. I don’t know of any way of finding it other than just diving it. It’s not nice cutting into the bottom of it but it’s not the end of the world either. The floor will only get worse until you find the source and replacing the floor can be a major major deal. I’ve had a leak in my supply line and have been running off the pump until I can get around to it.
Good luck!!!!

RE: Learn about solar for rv's
I bought my stuff from Renogy. I found their techs to be knowledgeable and most importantly really patient, especially Tylor. Their help was great especially since the written instructions were pretty much nonexistent.
I glad I did the project.

RE: route 7 from Hot Springs Arkansas
Western Arkansas is really nice. With your goal of seeing America I’m guessing the more western states are somewhere in your future. Hwy 7 is a good road for you to practice on. Hot springs has several fun things to do and the Jasper area is beautiful.

RE: 2019 Keystone 330RL Rear Wall Delamination
I have a 2011 Outback with the big picture window with small windows. Keystone told me same thing about 100,000 miles ago and it has worked fine the whole time.
The problem I had was in the outdoor kitchen. The lid leaked and it was poorly caulked. We never used the thing and by the time we noticed it leaking the floor was damaged.

RE: Don’t know anything
I strongly recommend a used one first. For starters, there’s no guarantee that you will even like the experience. Second, the floor plan that you first thought would be perfect or at least sufficient may turn out to be something you really don’t like.
Will you be doing any off grid camping? If so, look for the biggest holding tanks available.
Going to the shows is a good idea. If you find something you like leave your contact info with the salesman in case he gets a good trade in. Do some online shopping to get an idea of what you may like.
Lastly, keep me in mind, I love rv shopping and I get a tat jealous.
Happy shopping!!!!

RE: 5th wheel or bumper pull
We went with the TT for two main reasons. First, we didn’t like the steps. Second and probably more important is one that most people don’t have. It’s using the bed of the truck. It’s nice to carry several ice chests and buckets and fishing poles. We fish in the Gulf of Mexico and carry live fish, minnows and other small fish for bait. If the bucket sloshes water around, if the shrimp jump out and cant be found, if we want to cut a fish and use half of him it’s no big deal. Ok, not what you asked for but the beach sure is fun!
Moral of the story, camping is not always neat and clean. We like to have a place to put wet or dirty or stinky things somewhere other than in the trailer storage bins.

RE: Looking aft used trucks - "?' flood damage
Flood vehicles can be a disaster in the making. With all of the computers on board water is a big enemy. Water can also get in the diff gears. It can sometimes take months to show up, but it usually eventually will. Check places where you know there shouldn’t be any sign of water; under the carpet and under the dashboard. If you’re suspicious, take it to a qualified mechanic that you trust and have them inspect it. It will be well worth the couple of hundred or so dollars to find out.

RE: New to the RV World - Towing Mirrors Recommendation
I got some for my Ram online. They were made for that specific model and they fit very well and look good too. They were roughly a third of what Dodge wanted for them. One thing I really like is they fold up so there’s nothing to install and remove every time I tow.

RE: Multiple Tire Blowouts
I’m on my third set of Carlisle radial trails. They’re 10 ply, wear evenly and run cool at around 65. I’m not sure about truck tires on a TT, some say the side wall on the truck tire is not stiff enough for the squirming that trailers inflict. Just don’t know but you might want to keep it in mind. Had you run over something while towing? Maybe a curb or a really nasty pothole? That damage can hide for a while. If your trailer sits for months at a time that can also cause problems. Keep them inflated to 80.
Good luck!

RE: Lance roof noise?
I kind of enjoy the sound, but to each his own. What scares me are tree limbs. I try not to park under trees, especially if there’s a storm on the way. I had one about 3” in diameter hit the roof and thought the Russians were making a bombing run.

RE: Couple new to RV travel Trailer's looking for advice
If you’ve never done this type “camping” rent one first. See if you thought it was what you expect. Then buy your first one used, floor plans can easily fool you. Also for his height look for one with the rounded roof. The bed, it may be hard to find one long enough in that size unit. If length is available you probably can have one made.
Have fun!!!!

RE: This is why we can't have nice things.
As distasteful as it is, I encourage all of you reasonable people to help by picking up after these idiots. It won’t solve the problem but maybe it would at least delay action.
I also really, really wish the park service would quit advertising. They run commercials then gripe because parks are overcrowded.

Just the first of many to come brother. I’ve been doing this for decades and still pull bonehead stunts. All you can do is admit it and move on.

RE: F150 drive modes
I don’t know your truck specifically but usually tow/haul is made to save your transmission and to not lug your motor down. Tow without it in tow/haul you might
want to put all that fuel savings in the piggy bank so you can replace your tranny that prematurely failed.
I don’t mean to sound petty but it’s probably not worth the tiny amounts of money you’ll save in fuel.
Happy travels!
