RE: MD home base
Full timing to us does not mean locking yourself into one place full time. Full time to us means traveling and seeing things full time. But, to each his own.

RE: Is This Bad? (See Pic)
I would be taking the unit to another shop to have it evaluated. Looks like there might have been a small opening and the wind got under the rubber roof and started to lift it up from the roof.

RE: What can I do with a cooked pork tenderloin?
McCormicks makes a slow cooker package for the crock pot. Follow the directions and it is a great Pulled pork. The name of the package is Slow cooker pulled package and you find it in the spices where the McCormicks is located.

RE: Fantastic Fan vent lid points sideways?
It needs to be removed and reinstalled so it points backwards to the rear. Once done, then the vent cover is installed correctly vice to the side.

RE: Television
Depending on brand of the TV, you might check your warranty from the TV Manufacturer. You didn't say when in 07 you got the the coach, might still be within 2 years of purchase date?
Check the posting for Nov 07.
I'll junk it and look for a new one.

Television
Each morning DW starts the day off with the first cup of coffee and the TV. The TV comes on but it is all vertical streaks, no picture. After a varied period of time part of the picture appears and then finally in about 1 hour the full picture appears. We leave the TV on all day in case we want to watch something and don't want to go thru the start up process. I was told the video card was going out. Any advice on trying to repair or junk the thing? The TV was in the coach when we got it in Nov 07.

RE: For those that pull through Illinios
They finally got around to eliminating what was a misguided law right from the start. Actually an amazingly intelligent move given the current level of (in)competence in Springfield.
Most traffic safety experts will tell you that speed differential is more of a contributing factor to accidents than actual speed levels. Having two classes of vehicles with different speed limits is just inviting trouble.
Now, if they would just catch on to the fact that most traffic is traveling safely at 70-75 MPH and put in some reasonable limits we would really have something. And while I'm on my soap box, I'll mention the ridiculous 45 MPH construction zone limits that go on mile after mile when there is no actual work being done.
My man you need to slow down and smell the coffee! Relax and enjoy yourself!

Call the factory in Coburg. The factory is open and they have techs on duty to answer questions. Just a suggestion!

Anode rod or not?
While surfing the forum I came across something on water heaters and developed a question. I have a water heater; brand does not matter, which has the plastic drain plug. I’ve seen the heaters with anode rods and they have a metal plug with the rod attached. Does that mean the heaters with the plastic plugs do not need an anode rod or do I need to change mine from the plastic to metal? If a rod is not required what takes its place?

RE: Monaco/Holiday Rambler service
I have been trying to reach the parts department for 2 months now by phone and email and have had no luck. I stay on hold for at least 30 minutes on the phone before I hang up and all my emails go unanswered. I would not think this is the way a company would treat its customers that is trying to come back from being out of business. I know that they have lost me as a repeat customer...
Sometime back I posted a phone number and POC for parts. You may want to do a search for the number. Look under tandkj.
Went back and searched for:

RE: Anyone have info on Xmas Tree Lot
The power they provided for the coach would not hold the coach, 20 amp. One of the two of us were required to be there all the time. We took the coach to a local place to dump the tanks at our cost. The work was hard and the hours were long. The closer to Christmas the longer the hours and the more irritating the customers got. We did not pay the part time help, they were on regular hour pay while we were paid on the number of trees pushed. At the end of the season the excess trees were collected for processing as mulch but not charged against us. Will NOT do this again.
Forgot to mention we made $2500 for the time, Nov 1 to Dec 24. And for three days after Christmas for cleanup.

RE: MARKS RV & TRUCK SALES... TERRIBLE!!!!
OK, so you went to one store and they didn't have what you wanted. Went to a second Marks store and was lied to, went back to the original Marks store and got a deal but have to pay additional fees. And now you want us to be aware. Why would you go back to a Marks store after getting bad treatment? Then after getting a second bad treatment your telling us to stay away from them? Maybe you need to read your own post.
