RE: Chains in BC
You only have to have chains available to you, not use them. Buy the cheapest, lightest set you can find, then pay attention to the forecast. AutoSocks are also acceptable, if you want to push your luck a bit.

RE: Can anyone in Alberta Help???
There's a few companies shuttling RVs, but the ones I've seen are operating out of larger population centres, like Vancouver or the GTA. Haven't seen any flying out of YYC. The price isn't cheap, either.

RE: MIA...
OP is looking for the pull handle, not the outlet.
Seen 2 drops before, with separate locations for the handles, too.

RE: Mobile RV repair in the Phoenix/Mesa area
We've used Red Mountain RV Repair, but he might be gone north for the summer. He goes up to Flagstaff to avoid the heat.

RE: Fittings for holding tank revision.
Talk to the guys at the welding shop, they can spin weld fittings in that will work with the ABS of the trailer.

RE: Are damage deposits at parks customary?
Wouldn't want to camp in a mobile home park. Extended stay parks use different rules than weekend parks.

RE: RV Rebuild Website - Online soon - Input?
Pulls up fine on Android phone. The device determines the page layout, not something you need to set. Have fun.

RE: What Did I Do to Break My Generators???
Pull out the spark plugs on both machines. You hydro-locked them with oil. Pull the recoil cord to get as much as possible out. Replace the plugs, start them up. Expect lots of smoke, as the oil burns off. Expect to replace the plugs with new ones, after the smoke quits.

RE: Travelling from Nevada to Alaska in the Middle of Winter
Don't be in too big of a rush. It's -42* C an hour from Mile Zero, Alaska Highway, and most of Alberta is experiencing very similar temps. I'd expect cold well south of the border, so be ready for it.

RE: Citation Supreme Truck Camper
Citation's were heavy, comparatively, for the size, but they were well built. Keep on top of the seals around the windows and doors, the lights, and especially the roof hatches. Keep an eye on the roof, they tended to say a bit, over time.

RE: Travelling from Nevada to Alaska in the Middle of Winter
****! Something else to buy. Man!
I was asking about this on the silveradosierra.com forums and they were saying that if I was towing I wouldn't need it, but I feel like you guys have more experience.
Any suggestions where I can get one that doesn't involve sticking buttons to the grille?
Get a piece of cardboard, sized to cover the rad. Slip it in between the rad and the grille when you notice your heater not keeping the cab warm. Keep an eye on the engine temps, and the exterior temps. Remove as needed.

RE: Travelling from Nevada to Alaska in the Middle of Winter
So what do they do if you don't make it in time?? Turn you around and send you back to see if you make better time on the return trip? LOL
You get a nice piece of yellow paper, with the charges listed as well as the court date. At the end of the court case, done over video link, you'll be told what the fines amount to. You may also be informed that you are no longer admissible for reentry to Canada. Chuckle, chuckle, indeed.

RE: New Border Regulations
It won't affect anyone who shipped their vehicles, they only flew to get around the land crossing restrictions. They will be allowed to drive back, unless the rules morph yet again. This newest development is probably 3 months late. The real question is when the ruling elite will get their heads wrapped around the rules they're implementing.

RE: New project - 2016 AF 1140
Nice! A friend of ours has the turbo 4, and really likes it. I was suspicious at first, thinking back to small turbo engines of the past and how "peacky" their power production could be, but his just crawls over everything. The rig is more capable than we were brave. Have fun with it.
