This is another of the many "religious" arguments about RVing. All I can say is that five years back (or so) I searched a couple of the EDPM manufacturer's website and found two of them had...

How in the world would you be able to get a good seal without either Teflon tape or plumber's goo? I've been using Teflon on anode rods for over 30 years. They obviously still work with the tape as...

Same here. Those decals are just a PITA. From my personal experience, I only want a white coach with perhaps a bit of decoration. I'm strongly leaning to white boat paint, probably epoxy based. ...

Got to tell you though, those sleeves don't last forever. They are FAR better than the nylon crap Keystone uses for new rigs, but be sure and grease them at least yearly. I found I had two bronze...

Our 2010 didn't have any folding ones when we bought it (should have insisted the dealer give us some!), so we just picked up a couple Costco ones. Not the same color, but they work fine.

Why people don't think the ones making these don't know what they're talking about is beyond me, but whichever way floats your boat will work. I do what Dexter says to do.

Doesn't matter who you have do it, you had better know where the person lives that did it as there's absolutely no telling if they have a clue as to what they're doing. I do mine myself.

Picked up mine two weeks ago for the hurricane that didn't come our way. (Was planning on the end of this month.) Since I found I couldn't run the previous one in the truck bed without unhooking and...

Amazing! They've changed how the indicators work (maybe for the fun of it?). On our 'ancient' 2010, turning the gas switch on lights it the same as turning the electric switch on. There's no...

While we've had no issues with the build of ours, we certainly have had with makers of the appliances and other things they put in. Suburban's China bomb water heater spark module is my current main...

Some use pizza stones, but we do the same as Lynwood - a leftover 12 x 12 floor tile from renovating our sticks & bricks bathroom.

You don't mention that HDT's turn better than pickups. That's the biggest irritant to me - don't mind the length and width, but needing a half mile to turn around is a b*tch.

Ditto. Only issue is unhooking and pulling forward about ten feet to get the exhaust away from the front of your 5er. A Wallymart 30 amp extension cord works fine.

Very true. I went with four batteries and 400 watts of solar as we seldom go more than one to three days dry camping. This has worked well as long as we're reasonably careful. Still can run a TV...
