    Lug nut tool

    Hey all! We have a 2009 and it's time to replace the tires. The stock tires look to be 300 for a set of four. I am wondering what others have done for tires. I also would appreciate a link to the lug nut wrench that fits. We tow with our Silverado but feel the lug wrench is different. Thank you.

    Hot water heater flush

    How exactly do you flush an RV hot water heater? Are you blowing water up the drain and possible depositing debris elsewhere in the system??? I have a 2011 189 FBS. Thank you.

    The rising price of fuel ?

    Have your summer camping ventures changed due to the rising price of fuel? Recent news indicates maybe as much as $7.00 a gallon this summer. IF the price of gasoline increases that much, seriously doubt my unit will leave the driveway. :evil:

    2007 Shadow cruiser funfinder axle issue

    I just purchased a 2007 Fun Finder shadow cruiser T240. After getting it home I noticed the front axle tube is hitting the cross member that holds the fresh water tank. I’m sick over it thinking I got ripped off. Trailer seems to tow well and the tires are evenly worn. Could it be the springs...
