Costco Interstate Battery disappointing.

I have a pair of the Costco 6 volts in my 3820FK. One of them just totally died and won't take a charge. The battery date of manufacture is March, 2022. They only have a 1-year warranty. I take good...

I have the same trailer and mine blows out. The control does not have a setting to change the direction. If you are not the original owner, this model had an issue where the fan would fault the...

I'll ask. We talked about this when we scheduled and they recommended against the 8k axles if It was overkill because the ride would be harder. My 3820 FK has a GVWR in the mid 16,000's, but 2800...

In short, I will let you know in 7 days. I’m on my way to Elkhart now to have the IS/Disc brakes installed. I’ve talked to at least 5 others in person in addition to the numerous posts who said they...

I was just up in Massachusetts and diesel was $6.50 almost everywhere. Out here in Utah, it's still $5.25-5.35. I don't understand why the difference. As to the question - it's double to fill my tank...

Dog in RV

We travel with two huskies. We are OK leaving them in the RV for an hour or less if we go to the pool, but if we are going to be gone all day, we take them to a doggie day care. We have them...

Michelins

Which Michelins do you run on your Denali. Mine came with Wranglers which I hate. Had Defender LTX on my last truck and loved them.

Sorry to hear of your loss. I hope you are able to replace this with something. We have a storage place in town and in the agreement, the lot owner is held harmless. You're correct - they are nearly...

Same here. My 2017 had two that wouldn't take grease. I had to take the load off, back off the nut, rotate the bolt, and then it would take grease.

7k or 8k

We're scheduled for the IS/Disk Brake upgrade in March, 2022, unless someone cancels then earlier. In talking with Brian, he said that we shouldn't go with the 8k if the weight of the 5er didn't call...

Most of it was from the roof. I also had the return air diffusers inside off so I could see and position the PVC pipe.

Michelins

I have the wranglers on my 2020 and they are just OK. Wear is suboptimal, and at 12k miles they are 75% worn. They are also mushy if that makes sense. Not a crisp steering response. We ran Michelin...
