I'm the oddball in that I tow my 330RL (14k GVW 13k as weighed) with a Ram 3500 SRW gasser. I'm within all my limits partly because I do have a gas truck and more payload. I've also re-geared to a...

In Washington, if you stay out of the King/Snohomish/Pierce county areas and their Sound Transit tax, you'll only pay about $50 to register your RV.

I've been window shopping new vehicles and I noticed that the 20 GMC 2500 trucks are now listed at 11,550 lbs GVWR. I previously thought that 250/2500 trucks were limited to 10,000 lbs. Can anybody...

In Washington, specifically for not-for-hire vehicles, you would be fined for going over your registered capacity (RCW 46.16A.540). That's defined as the weight listed on your registration. The fine...

Great ideas! Thanks. I appreciate it.

Cutting fender

Long story short, the screws came loose on the large section of the curb side fender of my 330RL and it's along the side of the road somewhere. I ordered a new one but they only come full length so...

I was just speculating since it's a toy hauler. The freshwater tank is likely located over the axles. That's where most toy haulers carry the freshwater tank instead of in the back. My previous...

Our 2020 HC has individual slide controls. You have to do them one at a time. If you try to do more than one at a time, the slide motors really bog down.

Yes, I'm concerned about the wall. Sorry to not clear that up. I think I'll just keep it centered on the pad for now.
