congrats radiojeffrv - enjoy! I'm currently researching to see if that hard wired electrical cord can be replaced easily, as I'm learning about surge protection, autoformers and more - lol. |

Has anyone gone from a model with slide outs to a model without? Like to a 23a or 28a?

![]() Just completed my maiden voyage with my 2012 CA 23a. It was fantastic! only problem was that the battery died and wont' charge. Checked using a voltmeter and with the dohicky that you put into the cells. All cells are dead. Oh well. Spent two days boondocking at a ranch in Hollister, CA were my dog completed in a Barn Hunt. The RV was perfect for me, my dog, and my friend and her two dogs. had my CPAP plugged into the cigarette lighter and it pulled very little from the engine battery. Got good use out of the new awning as well. Then spent two days in Pacific Grove, CA by the Pacific Ocean. Had hookups and enjoyed a nearby beach that allowed leash-free dogs to run wild. They did, resulting in a very quiet ride home. Thank heavens for the laminate flooring! So much was spilled on it! From dog food to water to juice. The rig was easy to clean up. Had a blast and very happy with my CA 23a! |

I hope your battery isn't truly dead. Was it new from the sale?

I was just at CA this last weekend to check out the units. Definitely decided to go this direction, now just need to get everything in place. Now I just need to figure out what to do about roadside assistance, warranties, etc. :-) |
