    We're considering purchasing an R Pod 196, which weighs in around 3550 unloaded. My 2017 Explorer has the factory 5k tow package. I'd appreciate any thoughts on R Pod quality and comments on tow vehicle combination. We just travel the East coast, I-95.

    Ford V10 squeaking noise at steady throttle

    I have a Ford V10 with 15,000 miles in a Four Winds Class C 31L that is making a squeaking type noise under steady throttle. If I accelerate or decelerate the noise goes away. It sounds similar to a belt squeal/squeak but seems that would make noise more of the time. My guess would be some...

    Ford V10 Owners manual

    We have a 2015 FR3 30DS. I just noticed that I did not get an owners manual for the Ford V10. I received the manual for the FR3 itself, but, not for the motor. Did anyone else receive that manual when they purchased their RV?

    Ford V10 engine maintenance

    I've searched this site, and unless I'm not doing it correctly, I can't seem to find much information regarding the Ford V10 engine. I have a 2013 Sunseeker 2860DS with the V10 engine. The engine now has 27,000 miles on it. On my 1300 mile trek south a few weeks back, about half way I had a...

    Ford e450 rear view mirrors too large

    I recently purchased a 2018 Sunseeker 2290s on the ford chassis. While the mirrors offer good visibility to the rear they also obstruct my vision to the sides because they are huge. Before this I had a 2015 Sunseeker 2300 on the Chevy chassis and never had this complaint. I realize this may...

    Ford tpms

    Has anyone added the ford tpms sensor to the wheels on the riverstone? Our new riverstone is being built currently so i have no way to measure the valve stems. Was wanting to stick to the ford stuff as they are internal and seem easier to deal with down the road.

    1996 Ford Diesel - time to upgrade

    So our 1996 Ford diesel (with less than 200K miles on it) now needs -another- 'small' repair of 1-3K. DH is not mechanically inclined & I actually have been encouraging him to look at something else for safety & comfort reasons. We are in our late 50s & it is time to upgrade and we want the TV...

    Ford 7.3 Godzilla Tow Test

    Factory TPMS present on Ford Sunseeker?

    I have a 2019 Ford E450 chassis with a Sunseeker built on it. I was looking into tire pressure monitoring and was investigating the existing features of the Ford chassis. I see the E450 owner’s manual describes a basic TPMS, but also says “if equipped”. I notice there is a tire warning icon on...

    Anyone Towing a 2019 Ford Explorer?

    Last month we were travelling west on 1-4, about 60 miles east of Tampa, FL. As always, I-4 was packed, but we were plugging along in the slow lane at 50-55 mph. All of a sudden, my wife and I hear an explosion, the motor home lurches and I see our tow car swing into the middle lane. Someone had...
