RE: Will my WFCO 55 amp over charge?
My WFCO charger boiled my battery dry. To keep batteries charged during storage I use a BatteryMINDer charger-maintainer-desulfator. That has worked well for years.

Converting Onan generator from gas to propane
Our Northern Lite 10-2 CD has an Onan propane-fueled generator which has never given us a bit of trouble. I am considering the purchase of a Class A with a gasoline-fueled Onan generator and have heard a lot of horror stories about problems with such generators. So I am wondering if a gasoline-fueled Onan generator can be converted to propane-fueled.

Stability Issues
I am considering the purchase of a Class A. But I keep seeing posts about stability issues. How common are such problems? Are they more common on certain brands/models/ lengths? Have you had a problem? With what brand/model/length? What did you do to correct it? Did that solve the problem?

Have you owned a Fleetwood 25Y or 26Y?
I am considering the purchase of a Fleetwood 25Y or 26Y. Have you owned one? Which one? What did you like or dislike? Did you have the queen-bed option or the twin bed-option?

Fleetwood Fiesta or Terra: What's the difference?
I have a possible interest in buying an older Fleetwood 26Y with Twin Beds. I have 2006 brochures for the Fiesta and for the Terra and I can't see any difference beside the name. Can you tell me what's different?

RE: Let’s hear your best MPG and driving style ?
With our Dodge dually diesel carrying our Northern Lite 10-2 CD, we get about 15 mpg driving 55-60 mph.

RE: Time to replace batteries??
My 2008 Mazda is still using the original battery. How is that possible? When I'm not using the vehicle, I desulfate the battery with a BatteryMINDER 2012.

RE: Does such a Class A exist?
It seems to me that you are really looking for a Class C rather than a Class A and you just can't admit it to yourself.What does that mean? Why do you think I want a Class C when I say I want a Class A?

Does such a Class A exist?
Does such a Class A exist?
Our Northern Lite 10-2 CD slide-in truck camper suits us perfectly except for three drawbacks. But first some features we like: The roomy dinette with a large window. No slides to mess with and malfunction.
The drawbacks: At age 84, climbing into and out of the cabover bed multiples times per night. The standard-size RV toilet, which seems more suitable for a child than for an adult male – and not enough room to swap it out. Plus the air conditioner does not permit the option of cooling the sleeping area without cooling the entire interior.
We like the Leisure Vans Unity model (not a Class A) with rear twin beds and loads of overhead storage. But we don’t care for the transverse dinette with a limited view of the outdoors.
Do you know of a Class A with rear twin beds, a toilet with residential-size elongated seat, the ability to air condition the bedroom without cooling the entire interior, a roomy dinette with a good view of the outdoors, and no slide?
And I guess I should mention that our budget dictates used not new.

RE: Norcold Fridge Defrost Cycle
Dometic has no such defrost Cycle. NORCOLD DOES. DougThanks for the correction. I thought we had a Dometic but I just checked and it's a Norcold. Note that I have changed the original post from "Dometic" to "Norcold."
So which is it: 48 hours from the start of or from the end of the previous cycle?

RE: Carpet on ceilings.....
Does anyone have any ideas what to do about the carpet on my old Northern Lite camper? I do not like breathing the fibers that are starting to break down causing dust inside. Aside from always vacuuming the headliner each trip I would like to coat it or cover it. Just don't want to ruin it as it's still a nice 03 camper I bought new and upgraded. Thanks in advance.I would email Keith at Northern Lite (info@northern-lite.com) and ask him what to do. He always responds promptly to my emails.

RE: Front bed dipping with camper help
From the picture, it looks like the bottom of the cabover is sitting on the roof of the truck cab. If so, the roof of the truck cab could be damaged if you drive anywhere with the camper in the truck bed.

RE: New F350 owner seeks TC information
The 8-11 was here near me but I think the company moved it to Sacramento, I see a camper there now that looks the same, it does not have a ladder on it. It listed for the same price. The price is extremely high. I’m not really in a hurry though.
Here is a good question, will a dealership let you test load and drive a camper around in your truck? I feel like paying higher prices would be worth it if you could test drive it.
They’re listing the 2018 NL 8-11 for $34,999.I looked online and that was the asking price for the one or two 2018 8-11 Sportsman that I saw, with a 2017 for $2000 less. If you want to do a test drive you can always ask and explain why you want to test drive it on your truck. The worst they can do is say no.
