RE: is anyone using one of these AC units?

Evaporative coolers aren’t much good unless the air is bone dry where you are.

RE: Breaks Interstate Park

Google Earth might help....
You can’t even tell there is a campground there on Google. Heavily wooded.

If this company makes one for your model of refrigerator (which you didn't mention), it's the best there is:

RE: Axle and tire?

12,275-20% pin weight is 9,820, so your axles and tires aren’t underrated. You may want to weigh your trailer though. It’s easy for them to gain weight over time through mods and repairs. Overloading them is easy, especially with full tanks.

RE: Back in the dark ages !

I was always told that solid wire conducts / allows more electricity / power. That is why houses are wired with "romex", solid wire, instead of stranded wire like extension cords. Considering how difficult romex is to work with, everyone would prefer stranded wire if it would work better.
Well, that is the simple explanation given to me by electricians!
Solid wire is cheaper to make and easier to connect in household wiring. Stranded wire is better where flexibility is important such as lamp cords or in vehicles.

RE: Back in the dark ages !

More wires give more surfaces for current to travel on. Finer the strands the greater number of surfaces. Considering the same size of wires.
Current does not travel on the wire surface until the frequency gets to about 20 KHz. It is not an issue for power.

RE: Norcold N611 acting odd, affected by interior coach lights

The problem is in your 12V supply. Check your battery disconnect switch and verify that your converter is producing power.

RE: North or Northwest of Milwaukee and points north

Harrington beach state park in Port Washington is nice and has large sites. It’s on the lake and Port Washington is a cool smaller town. Further up is kohler andre which is nice as well but the sites are a bit smaller and further from Milwaukee. West of Milwaukee is Ottawa lake campground but if I was going to pick between the two I would stick with Lake Michigan.
Stopped in Kohler Andre last spring while traveling through. Nice place, though a little far along.
We’ll check out Port Washington. Thanks!

North or Northwest of Milwaukee and points north

Looking for a spot for a few days. E&W and least. We'd want access to Milwaukee some, lakefront north of Milwaukee and maybe Madison. Wouldn't have to be right on top of any of those things.
Prefer clean and friendly places, doesn't have to be luxury. Going to head north afterwards. Maybe Door County as a final destination, or maybe some time there then on to the UP and make our way back down through Michigan to Southern Indiana.
The route after Milwaukee seems easier to plan, but we just don't have a good idea for that area. Advice on any parts of that route are appreciated.

RE: time to replace brakes?

You need to check your math.
0.08 is much less than 1/8 of an inch. It’s less than 1/12 of an inch. 0.18 inch is also much less than 9/32 of an inch. It’s 9/50 of an inch. 0.04 inches is 1/25 of an inch.
New, mine were 3/16 (0.185) inch and replacement is recommended at 1/16 (0.0625) inch.

RE: Kalamazoo, MI to Gulf Shores, AL

Check your settings. The only way I can get google maps to give the US-41 option is I select "avoid highways" option. Otherwise, it's between I-69 and US-31.
Might be set to avoid tolls. The bridge at Louisville on 65 is tolled.

RE: Kalamazoo, MI to Gulf Shores, AL

You don’t want any part of 41. Traffic lights are common. I see no reason not to do 69 to 65 or just 69 to 24. Minor discontinuity of 69 at Indy, and again at Evansville/Henderson, KY, but no big deal.
Taking 31 south to Indy would be better than 41 by a long shot.
If you do choose 69, blow the horn at me just after exit 87.

RE: Feedback on $50 Onan carbs on Amazon?

This is why a certain Country owns us, people are happy to buy the CHEAP option over and over again.
I am sure you have looked into re building the carb?
I had two different Stihl pros rebuild my carb three times. No improvement. A $15 Chinese carburetor fixed it immediately after spending more than $200 trying to get it fixed. You’d have to be an idiot to throw more money at a losing proposition.

RE: Feedback on $50 Onan carbs on Amazon?

I gave in several years ago and went with the cheap carbs. I’ve been amazed. Had a saw that had been serviced at a dealer three times that just wouldn’t run right. 5 years running great with a $15 carb. I’ve replaced one on a tiller and one on a big water pump with no problems.
