    2011 DRV 36RSSB3 front docking lights

    I’ve spent too long looking for a switch to turn on the front docking lights. The rear ones come on when I’m hooked up and have the truck in reverse. I have not checked the bulbs in the front. Is there a switch somewhere to turn them on?

    Keyless entry reset

    I Just bought a 2011 DRV Mobile Suites 36RSSB3. It has a keyless entry keypad, of course I don’t know what the code is, nor did the people I bought it from. I removed the keypad and it appears to be wireless. Going to pick up another battery. There is a model number on the back PGWK10006PT03...

    Is a manual slider that much trouble?

    So I’m looking at hitches for a 2015 Ford F-350 short bed. I see some convenience in an auto sliding hitch but wondering how much hassle it really saves? The extra money aside there’s additional weight involved and the convenience of not having to get out and manually activate the slider. I had...

    Off-set slide

    Has anyone had to have their slide re-aligned? The big street-side slide on my MS 41 RKSB4 has moved too far aft that the aft trim piece has bent when taking in the slide. The forward side allows cold air in in the winter. Is it a big deal to re-align? $$$$? Thanks

    Adding a 3rd A/C

    Has anyone had a 3rd A/C unit added to your coach? Rolling Retreats has given me an estimate of around $4500 and said they can do it in a day. I’m wondering how they are going to get it hooked into my existing ductwork and wire it up without tearing apart my roof or ceiling. I don’t see any room...

    Stabilizer Tripod

    We’ve got a Grand Design Solitude with a leveling system that is making popping noises. The solution seems to be to add some alternative hydraulic fluid to prevent slippage. However, in order to do that, I need to raise and lower the leveling jacks. I don’t have a truck to hitch it to. Can I...
