Help! We’ve replaced the motor on our hydraulic pump for our slides & jacks on our 2011 Georgetown 378. Although we marked the hydraulic lines as accurately as possible in the oily mess, we can’t get the jacks up fully or the slides in. We’re thinking the lines could be attached incorrectly...

I know there has been a lot of discussion here about the front end alignment on motor homes. I just wanted to point out I just picked mine up from getting done and I can say it's a totally different vehicle. I can't believe I fought this thing for 17,000 miles. What a difference.

Hi everyone! Just joined yesterday and wanted to get a head start on the FR Forum for a Coachmen Sportscoach I'm picking up next week. I was wondering if ADMIN would be willing to break down General Motorhome Discussions a little bit more instead of just "Coachmen". How about the models too...

I almost hesitate to post this as it's an age old discussion- gas vs. diesel. I've towed a lot and have spent the last 10 years in > 42' fifth wheels. Now that we aren't fulltiming, we're talking about getting something a little more nimble. At the moment, we're kicking around the idea of a...

We are staying at the campground on Lake Mead. When we were leaving a park ranger went by with his lights and siren on. When we came back this afternoon we saw this. Do not what happened or anything about it. I hope everyone is ok.

Not sure where to put this and not sure how to use the proper terminology for this forum. I have not done much with my Motorhome, only had it a year and a half and it was at the dealership or factory for much of that time. I tried searching old posts but did not find anything, so if anyone can...
