Has anyone added air bags to the living quarters (box) on a toterhome or do you just rely on the air ride system on the tractor? I am building a toterhome on a 2008 freightliner m2 and plan to use a 15 foot dry van body. I would like to add additional air ride for the passengers in the living...

Well, today I finally looked at my Victron app and saw a 4 amp draw on the battery while parked. That was odd since nothing was on in the trailer except the gas detector thingy. So I unplugged the 7 pin connector and voila! the draw went away. I have LFP batteries in the trailer and they read...

Wondering if anyone has experiences (good or bad) with taking their motor coach to a truck wash drive-ups at truck stops?
Ideally I'd hand wash our 2021 Berkshire 34B, but I just don't have the time. RV detail companies are charging $300 and I'm not sure they are getting the...

I weighed my rig today and wanted you inputs on the weight distribution
Any helpful advise welcome
Had Pirelli Scorpions on the truck stock, and they were great tires. Towed 5th wheel with no issues.
Replaced them with Bridgestone Duelers Revo 2 a few years ago and found them very squirmy. (Way too squirmy)
*noticed the reviews for Revo's are that they are squirmy.
Like to get some input...

I have a pop up camper and just got a new Ram 2500 and was not too smart waiting for the last minute to hook it up to the truck to try it out. I got the ball mount drop right, and measured the chains to make sure they are long enough, but forget about the harness. The plug on the truck is way...
My in-laws just purchased this truck camper and I'm trying to help them ensure it's in great shape. The roof and seams look great and there does not appear to have even been any water intrusion. I am thinking of cleaning the roof and eternabonding all seals and seams. Then I thought I'd use...
