RE: over the mountains

Highway 2 along the border is also fun and scenic. Not 4 lane but still a nice road.

RE: Bone Head Move of the Day

I think I'd leave the chip there just as it is. Gives the place character and also acts as a conversation starter.
Mainly it will always remind you to do your check list and walk around.
You DO do a walk around the outside of your rig before you pull out don't you?

RE: PDI

Total ripoff. I'd be leary of anything else they have done if they are charging for a PDI.
Welcome to the forum.

RE: Campground Oops

Has anyone ever left their site with the awning extended and hit the camping rig across the road?
Not yet. Give me time.

RE: Roof Top A/C

I had to oil the squirrel cage shaft on both of mine about a year ago. The fan would not start unless you gave it a spin.
Mine did not have an oiling point, I just applied oil at the bearing edges and that cured the problem.
I exercise mine about once a month to keep everything moving.

RE: Campground Oops

Pulled into Little America gas station on the East side of Wyoming and drove up to the gas island. A big sign on the end of the island said LOW clearance, No RV's.
I stopped, read the sign and proceeded to drive into the island. Of course my trailer hit the roof all the way in. I have no idea why I did that.
I had to remove the air from my trailer tires to pull it out.
Of course my darling wife took several pictures and I drew a crowd while I was untangling my rig. Scrapped up my A/C but the roof of the island had seen several people before me so no damage was done to the roof that wasn't already done.
Did get gas though, what the heck I earned it. I've never heard the end of this story and it happened 25 years ago.

RE: Miffed at Monaco Parts

"My real issue is not getting a replacement, it's Monaco's 'must buy two' requirement. "
They must have some old Costco managers involved. More is better!!

RE: California to Vancouver Trip

I'd suggest going east on I80 to Truckee and then take highway 89 north to Lake Shasta.
Took that route last year and it is better than Alaska.

RE: Problem with Pilot/Flying J RV Plus Card

Based on the volume of Flying J problems reported on this forum over the past several years I will NEVER get a Flying J credit card.
It has to be the number one complaint receiver on here.

RE: 2005 winnie 38J

Make sure the Actia gauge led panel is readable. I'm on my third Actia gauge.
How much are they asking?

RE: Plugged into 50amp, getting 30amp

Did it ever work correctly at this campsite?
Would it be difficult to move to another site just to test it?
Are any of your neighbors having a similar problem?
And last....have you gone to see any plays?

RE: Cost of having AIR conditioning ON?????

Last early Spring on a trip down to So. Cal. on Hyway 395 we hit a very violent wind storm and had to stop driving at Independence, CA and pulled into The Ft. Independece Travel Plaza to spend the night and dry camp until the wind passed in the morning. At 5:00pm I filled the diesel tank to its absolute fullest at the station and pulled into a flat spot with some 18 wheelers. The temperature dropped to 29 degrees that night and I ran two 1,500 watt electric heaters on full all night until 6:00am the following morning. We ran the water heater and the fridge on propane all night as they had been on propane when we were driving. The 7,500 watt QD diesel generator ran for 13 hours and in the morning I was curious as to how much diesel I had used. I pulled into the same island/pump I had used the day before and filled up the fuel tank to exactly the same level at 5:00pm the day before. I took exactly 8.5 gallons of diesel or .65 gallons per hour. My generator had approximately 400 hours on it.
Doesn't answer your air conditioning/gas generator question but I thought some may find this germain and interesting.
Excellent!! This the only way to calculate usage. Thanks for the input.

RE: Traveling pitfalls

We've been there four times and came from three different directions and I didn't encounter anything out of the ordinary as far as roads were concerned.
Mr Mark had it right about Sturgis. We went through Sturgis a week before the event and it was already booking up. Pretty neat place if you are into motorcycles.
