We are on track to convert the forum to new software. It has been many years since we've had a platform update, and it's finally time. To do this, we'll need to close the forum. This is scheduled for December 17-19 beginning very early in the morning (subject to change if there are...

I am looking into buying a semi and retitling it as an RV. I have an LLC in Montana and was looking to do it through that. Has anyone had any experiences with doing so? or am I better off doing so where I live here in Indiana?

The Flagstaff 26SRD has these specs: Hitch Weight 716 lb. UVW 6,509 lb. CCC 2,007 lb. Exterior Length 29' 9" Thus, a GVWR of (6509 + 2007) = 8516. I'm buying a 2025 Ford F150 Platinum that has a payload capacity of about 1400 lbs. A bigger truck is NOT an option for me as I can only get a...

The Garbage Truck :: 2025 Dynamax Isata 3 RW (2024-10-23 02:17:07)

I went to the junkyard yesterday and purchased 3 extensions for lowering the spare, it's been a concern I've pondered since getting the camper 2 years ago. Not sure how Ram and Ford get the spare out. The two pieces in the middle are what I bought 3 of. Cost me $11

Hi, I have, I think, looked all over the net to find some instructions/diagrams on a Liftco slide out in our 2005 coachmen mirada 340mbs. I have even contacted Liftco without success. I have had to remove the slide room to do some work on some water damage. I thought while removing everything...

No sign of my Vin on the Mopar site but that could just be their worthless IT organization. But here's hoping the 6 speed diesels are not affected. https://www.foxbusiness.com/technology/manufacturer-recalls-1-5-million-ram-pickup-trucks-software-issue

Hello all. We are in the market for a new 5th wheel camper for a family of 5. I am wanting a Montana or a Bighorn that sleeps at least 8 people and this thing would be loaded down with all our stuff as we pack everything but the kitchen sink. I was originally looking to get a 23' F-350 with the...

Need some help please.... Just picked up a 2006 freightliner columbia renegade toter and the dash trim is busted up. Anyone know where to find replacement parts? I've been searching the internet but maybe typing the wrong terms. Looking for these pieces please Thx

I am wiring my truck to operate my Orion XS at full 50A. Running 2 ga cable from the battery to the Anderson connector in the bed of the truck. 15 ft run. Do I need to run a positive and negative cable to the Anderson or can I just frame ground the negative from the Anderson connector...

Hi guys, I started in on redoing my motorhome this year because I didn’t like the layout and the aluminum sided box with unsealed seams that wicked water in by capillary action around every wall penetration annoyed me with all the moisture and weeping marks down the walls inside. So, I’ve opted...

Hello all ... I've searched the forums here and have not found a real definitive answer so here goes ... I have a 2021 Palomino HS-2902 truck camper. There is water damage on the underside of the cabover portion. Deterioration of the covering material and small bulges with water seeping...

No CA bashing posts please. I’m curious what, primarily CA residents, but also non-residents, are doing about the CA Clean Truck program. Most Dynamax rigs meet the 14,000 GVW threshold. Non-registered/ non-paid CA vehicles will eventually have their registration renewal held up. Ron

Two things that I am thinking about repairing before putting my truck up for sale. First is a dent in the roof from the basketball hoop blowing over and hitting the truck. $444 is the quote from the paintless dent repair guy. Second is a dent in the rear bumper from backing into a light...

Started the list of stuff to get for the 2020 F350 Platinum 6.7 PSD 4X4 CC LB I hope to pick up this week. Anything else I should consider?

2012 Volvo VNL630. Love the truck and hate to part with it - it has been super reliable and a fantastic experience but we are cutting back on our travels. We've owned it since 2021 and it's never skipped a beat. 465,000 miles D13 Engine 12-speed iShift auto trans Dual 125-gallon fuel tanks...

Current truck is in my sig. I love it except for: 1. I am at max on weights (GVWR) 2. I am going to pop out my back window at some point with the GenY setup and short bed 3. The 6.0L engine is bullet proof but a little anemic for my 5er There is a 2022 F350 7.3L long bed with 86,500 miles...

I have a B&W Companion hitch which has been great for several years. Recently when I disconnect, it's a harder disconnect and after opening the jaws, the kingpin is an inch or two behind already and the truck "lurches". Anyone know what this is caused by? Perhaps when I put the truck in park...

I have a 2020 GMC Sierra 3500hd. I run my 12 volt fridge when towing when I get to my campsite my batteries are low I have my main power switch on up by the tongue and I am towing a 2023 2109s Mini Lite. It doesn’t seem like the truck is sending 12 volt power to the trailer. I know the solar...

Had a hydraulic hose blow on my levellers last week. Of course this had to happen on a brand new concrete pad at a park in Ohio :eek: This hose is in the cluster of hoses coming off the manifold in the gen compartment. Turns out it was rubbing against the angle iron frame that is part of the...

I’m looking for ideas on how to secure our full size (non-folding) e-bikes in the bed of the truck. I have a front-mounted receiver and a Hollywood Racks bike rack but I feel like the bikes are too exposed to the weather and bugs plus they do block the headlights somewhat so I’m thinking about...

Our black tank is only 30 gal and I wanted to be able to spend extended periods beyond parks with dump stations, without tearing down camp, to drive to town. Enter this, https://www.amazon.com/Viking-Solutions-VS-VSL001-Game-Processing/dp/B00VXURFSG/ref=sr_1_19? Gave it the final test today...

Actually, my wife and I were driving in my truck to my DD's place of work to watch the eclipse with her. She made a comment that the truck was vibrating a lot (and how that made her feel but that is R rated). And it was. The General Grabber tires have been floppy, noisy POS's since I...

Hi all, thanks for leaving the door cracked enough for me to stick my big nose it. (You may regret it!) At the stage where I need to register Dackwagon, a 2001 Aliner Scout hard-side pop-up camper mounted on the frame rails of a 2001 Mitsubishi Fuso Fg649 4x4 truck with a flexible mount that...

I was towing the rv home from Florida to Maryland and got a buldge in my tire on my 2016 f250. I put a spare on which is slightly smaller. I need to replace all the tires when I get home anyway as they have 55000 miles on them. I am currently running 295/65 r20 on my truck and honestly have...
