    Hi folks, this is my 1st post here. While installing new 6 volt batteries in my MS I momentarily reversed the cables! As a result I lost power to all four slides, 2 hyd and 2 elect. I have full 12v on all other systems. I replaced the 3 30A fuses at the converter and don't see any others blown...

    Looking for RV Parks in Madison WI area - Open Early

    Hi everyone. We're needing to take a sudden trip to the Madison WI area and need to find a park. They're nearly all closed for the season still, not seeming to open until May. I'm hoping someone can point me to a place that's open. Even if I find one that can't supply water, I can probably...

    Seeking advice, alternate trailer wiring plug

    We have the typical side-of-the-truck-bed fifth wheel plug on our F-350. (I didn't install it, but I definitely use it!) I need to have an *additional* outlet down at the bumper. (Have to pull a "regular" trailer next week.) That trailer is also a 7-blade, so I bought a split 7-blade/4-flat...

    Shower grab handle/shower head mount

    On our DRV JX450 the shower grab handle and shower mount, the vertical pole that the shower head attaches to, is dripping rusty water from the bottom connection to the shower wall. How do you get that bar off to see what is causing the problem. At the least, I want to remove it to dry it out...

    Registering a 5th Wheel out-of-state

    Greetings, I am a Nevada resident who is considering buying a 5th wheel in Oregon to be delivered to a nearby RV park in Oregon. I am trying to figure out how to get it registered. From the Oregon DMV, it seems that you cannot register an RV in OR as an out-of-state resident. In Nevada, it...

    coleman-mach shroud

    Hello All, in typical Alaskan style winter weather the wind blew away the shroud for my 8330 series Coleman-Mach A/C unit so I am looking to replace it. There is a Coleman brand available and figured it's the best option but.. there is a MaxxAir version too. Anyone replaced their shroud with...

    Towing Trade Off

    Looking to see if anyone is pulling a 10k 5er with a newer ram 3500 with the 6.4 hemi? We were pulling with a 1990 f350 with a 460, but the transmission went out on a recent trip. We are stuck between trading in my Tacoma, which has been insanely reliable, on a newer 1 ton and selling the old...

    Husband and I are owners of a 2018 Forest River Cedar Creek Silverback 33IK that has been in the shop for 4 months now for repairs. We are waiting on the last items, but the repair shop cannot even give us a prospective ship date. We originally needed a new shower pan due to ours having cracked...

    water pump runs continuously

    If my holding tank is full, all is well. Once the level of the water in the tank drops below the pump, my pump will start to occasionally run continuously, until I turn on a faucet, then it will prime and start moving water. As the water level drops, it gets worse. Once I'm down to about 15%...

    Gooseneck vs 5th wheel hitch?

    I really like the idea of a gooseneck hitch on a 5th wheel instead of the large 5th wheel hitch in the bed. I understand they may take longer to hitch to the truck. I am thinking of the Reese Goose Box. The truck would be a 2022 F350 SRW Diesel. Tell me why it would be a bad idea instead of...
