RE: DirecTV ABC E/W DNS Channels
Howdy!
We cut the ties with DirecTV satellite a few years ago and started streaming everything. We started with Direct TV Now. They provided us with ABC, CBS, NBC etc... without the extra charge we paid DirecTV satellite. Direct TV Now has changed its name to ATT TV Now but we still have the same programming. We don’t have deal with east coast west coast channel to watch local programming. The nice thing is when we move location as fulltimers the local programming changes to or now location without having to contact ATT to have the location changed.

RE: New Dually - Need Hitch, Toolbox, Rolling Cover Advice
Howdy!
I’ve been using a Reece GooseBox for a couple of years now and would not go back to a 5er hitch. Nice to have a clean truck bed to use when I want to. Its also the only gooseneck hitch that will not void you trailer warranty.

RE: Where to stay near Johnson City TX?
Howdy!
Not much to see or do in Johnson City. Fredericksburg is probably the place to stay. We like staying at Lady Bird Johnson municipal park in Fredericksburg. If you are planing on being there on the weekend you need to make reservations in advance for any RV park in or near Fredericksburg. They are extremely busy and fill up year round.

RE: Where would my LP regulator leak?
Howdy!
I had a propane leak I could not find using he typical method of soaping and checking for bubbles. I ended up purchasing a Leak Sniffer Detector on Amazon and found the leak right away.

RE: Daschund legs
Howdy!
Our daschund had the same type of back problems. We noticed he as having problems with his hind legs and showed signs of being in pain. We took him to our vet the very next morning. Our vet then had us take him straight to another vet in Houston for surgery. Our local vet advised if we had waited on the surgery he would have been paralyzed and not have use of his hind legs. The surgery was successful are he is doing well even years later. I wish you well with your fur baby and your wife’s health also.

RE: National General Insurance
Howdy!
Thats what they do. I tried National General. Started with a good rate and did nothing be increase to what you are talking about with no claims. They even promised my rate would go down after the first year which it ever did. I dropped them and went back to USAA.

RE: Gen Y vs. Reese Goose Box
Howdy!
I’ve been using a Reese GooseBox on my 2014 Cyclone 4000 now for a couple of years. I like it and would not go back to a 5er hitch. As mentioned the only draw back is the Gen Y has not been excepted by Lippert to not void your warranty. I like the Gen Y over the GooseBox because you don’t have to deal with airing up the hitch. Some have had problems losing air during travels, I was one of them. I would definitely consider the Gen y now as I’m out of warranty anyway.
You may want to look at the FaceBook “GooseBox owners group”. There are lot of folks using GooseBox and some with Gen Y that can help with truck and RV information.

RE: Zero-G water hoses
Howdy!
I started using Zero G hoses several years ago. The very first one sprung a leak after several months of fulltime use. It was replaced for free under warranty. I carry two 25’ Zero G hoses now and have never had another problem.

RE: Maritmes phone coverage
Howdy!
We had no problems using our AT&T phones in the Canadian Maritimes and Newfoundland when we visited. We did turn off our internet data as it would have been expensive, but the phones worked just fine. Our AT&T phone service covered us in Canada when we traveled to Alaska also year before last. So I would check with you phone service carrier. If it’s not covered it may be cheaper to add it than to purchase another service in Canada.

RE: 140 PSI Water Pressure
Howdy!
I ran into a problem with high water pressure ina park we had stayed at a couple of years ago. I have a good Watts water pressure regulator that I can set the pressure myself no problem. What I failed to consider was the connection to my black tank flush as I use a Sewer Solution and it caused a leak. I now have a inline water pressure reduced connected to that line also. Just something to think about.

Propane tanks fit perfectly into old milk crates, so you don’t have to worry about them falling over.
