RE: Oklahoma Turnpike info
I-35 is not a toll road in Kansas, Oklahoma, or Texas. I-70 (The Kansas Turnpike), is toll in Kansas. I-44 (The Will Rogers Turnpike) is toll in Oklahoma.
Actually, it is both 35 and 70. It is also a few more:

RE: 50% Off Deal - Legit?
Here's complaints on the GS non service, they don't make this forum easy to find. GS Roadside complaints.
???
You were kidding, right?
My thread here is IN that forum. I had found it during my research phase. And had come across several posts of yours touting coach-net over Good Sam. And I HAVE taken your opinions into account. Had I not found negative reports about coach-net too, this would probably be easier.
Seems like both can be hit or miss, depending upon who answers the phone. It's probably hard to find good people nowadays because they can make more on unemployment. Too bad.
I sincerely appreciate the help!
I have had both services. I received Coach-Net when I bought my trailer as a bonus from the manufacturer. I have had GS for many years. I have not had any complaint on how GS has handled my needs over those years. Coach-Net did fine as well. A friend of mine runs a roadside service/towing and told me that all of the services use the same providers but may pay them differently.(i.e. discounts, payment timeliness, and give-backs)He also said that bad outcomes are not always the fault of the service, some customers can expect something that is not part of the service and then complain they were treated badly( Imagine that:S )

RE: More good dog food information
I follow my vets recommendations. He does not just cover the expensive brands. He has changed his choices as our dogs have aged. One of our dogs is 19 and our three prior dogs lived to 16, 14 and 13.

RE: Dometic toilet problem
Measure carefully on the 320. The 310 is an exact fit but the 320 is different. I think they were offering the 320 for $125 when I got mine.

RE: Dometic toilet problem
This is a known problem and they were replacing models in certain serial numbers. That program has "OFFICIALLY" ended but the problem still happens. I replaced mine through Dometic about a year ago. They offered me to either get the replacement or upgrade to the 310 with soft close lid for $75. I got the upgrade. Some people are reporting that Dometic has stopped offering but others have gotten the replacement or upgrade, Talk to customer service and be courteous and you maybe one of the ones to be offered the replacement or upgrade. You will need the serial number.
Good Luck

RE: Consignment Sales
According to my State Farm agent, my insurance covers the trailer no matter where it is parked or why it's there. He stated so in an email.
Since State Farm is a national company I would think this would be true in any state they do business.

RE: No more overnight parking at Desert Diamond Casino?
We have stayed at the Ameristar Casino campground in Vicksburg,MS. We joined their players club(called MyChoice) and have received comp nights each time. It also has worked at the Hollywood Casino park in Tunica. Have also received comp at Windstar in Oklahoma using their players club. I don't spend much in any of the actual Casinos(usually a meal)
I understand many of the Casinos do this if you ask.

RE: Biltmore
I agree it is a beautiful place and the views from the balconies on the back are excellent.
We have stayed at the Asheville East KOA and were right on the river(which is sometimes dry but not when we were there) Could also see the mountains.

RE: Disney Transportation question
Ok , 25 $ , I was staying at the fort so its then included. I drove to all the parks but MK. Faster that way, and i have a TT so just as easy.
You are saying you drove from Ft Wilderness to the parks and found it faster and easier? And staying at the FT gives you free parking? Honestly never considered that. The few times we were there we used Disney transport just assuming the parking situation would put you far from the entrance and be a pain. Although I will admit, one late night with tired kids (and already knowing the long route the bus was going to take to get us back) we called an Uber.
One of the things I like most about staying at FT. Wilderness is access to the Disney transportation system.
I consider riding,, the boats, monorail and buses all part of the experience. I can park the car and not worry about driving the entire stay. Unless it were an emergency I would never pay vs. taking Disney transportation. I'm just not in that much of a hurry to get back to the RV. It's all vacation time!
We have gone the route of driving and parking before while at the Fort. It was a time saver most of the time. However, when we went in early December 2020, the parking lot trams were not running(part of the CoVid protocols) and you had to walk in from the lot. This negated any time saving. I don't know if the trams are running again but if not use the buses, etc.

RE: Disney Transportation question
The outside parks do not have scheduled transportation. Some have stops from the public transit to ride to Disney but nothing more. An Uber or Lyft will cost about $20-25 to take you.

RE: Replace Mobley
I have not experienced any time limits on my Mobley.
I use the Mobley without any time limits, but I am not often online for 2 hours at a time.
While traveling my Mobley is on line 24/7. When not using it for steaming or other internet uses it allows remote connection to my trailer's monitoring devices(cameras and temperature sensors).

RE: Replace Mobley
I have not experienced any time limits on my Mobley. I just finished a two week trip in early December and no issues. I also have the Netgear LB1120 with the external antenna (6000450) when in fringe areas. The sim card swaps in and out of the two devices with no issues. Did not need any unlock codes or contact with ATT tech support to use.

RE: How to listen to MY own music on my phone?
If you have a Best Buy near you, see if they have the Samsung reps available. The rep will take you through the change and will also update the phone with latest software.

RE: Television - 12 volt or 120?
I wonder if the 12v units, given they are built for RV's, are made more robust to handle the banging around. 110v TV just sit on a stand or hang on a wall.
Any one with a dead one ever open it up? Are the electronics all potted up? Mounts more robust? This would account for higher $ along with way lower production numbers.
I have worked on many and participated in reliability studies on many brands of televisions. The RV ready units are no more robust than any other unit. The RV ready moniker is just hype. An example is the Jensen units which are in name only. They were bought out by Audiovox early 2000s. They survive only as a name owned by ASA electronics today. The product is low end Chinese manufactured.The chassis is mostly plastic and has little support for the display.
Now having said that, it is important to realize that most of the televisions today are made by only a handful of companies trading under many names(some of which used to be big names like GE RCA Zenith). Look at the sets in person and chose the one that looks best to you and check the reviews. Vizio, Sharp, Samsung and Sony seem to be well liked. Now go for the price and if needed get an inverter for the unit you like.

RE: Remembrances of vacuum tube days
Started at a very young age by helping my grandfather and then my father repair electronics (TVs, radios and early HiFi rigs. I liked to build Dynaco stereos and loved my McIntosh stereo equipment. I still think the old tube type equipment has a better sound. I worked for many different electronics shops and went into teaching electronics after closing my own shop. I was always sought out by the local hobbyists to fix their Heathkits when they messed up. Eventually I got into computers and networking. When the students quit taking electronics classes(math was too hard :B), I changed to computers and networking classes. Retired from teaching at the Community college after teaching high school for many years.

RE: I Hope This Doesn't Get Taken Down Right Away
I was in 2nd grade. They announced it over the PA. Our teacher ran out of the room crying. We were not really aware of the magnitude at that early age. The principal came to our room to lead us to the auditorium where we waited for awhile until school was dismissed to go home. I remember all the teachers outside were crying and trying to get the bus students on their way.
