RE: Shelby, MT to Cardston, AB via MT-213
One thing about Del Bonita is there shouldn't be any long wait if there's any wait at all. It's wide open country going up there and very little to see other than the plains

RE: SRW vs Dually
Not true - DRW looks MUCH better!
Only thing I learned from this thread is that some prefer wide rears. :B
Depends on what the wide rear is attached too:)

RE: Campground Theft
Maybe you should do as granny on the Beverly Hillbillies and keep a shotgun loaded with rock salt. LOL :B

RE: Having a SENIOR moment
I assume you older folks remember the yield signs on all interstate highway entrance lanes way back when. After those signs went away, the dummies took over.
Michigan has never had the yield signs on interstate on ramps since I started driving in 1960

RE: Campground Theft
Just as ridiculous was the theft of two hub caps off my trailer this year. They were on when we got there or I would've noticed. Also after running close to 8000 mi with them on this year they didn't just fall off during a 60 mi trip. Both on the same side and the wife told me the dog growled after I went to sleep that night but she just figured he heard an animal outside and didn't want to wake mne

RE: Loose tow bar in receiver
Another way if you or a friend have a welder is to run some beads along the top or bottom and grind to the fit you want. I've done this more than once for a nice close fit

RE: Now that is a big Truck Camper
Those remind me of these. We saw these N.E. of Missoula in late June. I didn't get to talk to the owners but was told they were on a world trip.

RE: Campgrounds along or near Hwy 12 in Idaho
Older thread but here's a nice one right on 12. The fee of $9 with full hookups for seniors is a real savings. The camp host was very friendly also. https://www.blm.gov/visit/pink-house-recreation-site

RE: Slide out awning covers
A slide topper/awning can also hold enough snow that it won't go in. We had this happen with the living room slide on our Crossroads this year. The bedroom slide came in fine but the snow bunched up and prevented the living room slide from coming in until I got it swept off. It was to 5-6 inches of wet snow. But I still like the toppers for keeping junk off the slide

RE: Where in Western MI with 3 tweens/teens
Another nice, large Mi state park is Interlochen. It has just over 500 sites and is across the road from Interlochen Music Camp. Makes a short drive to Leelanau Peninsula, Sleeping bear Dunes and Old Mission Peninsula. Someone mentioned Leelanau State Park be advised that's rustic only and a long ways from most anything

RE: GM Strike
Was UAW for 43 yrs. As far as profit sharing it sounds great. We had it at various times at the parts supplier I worked for. Trouble was books and figures are cooked so they don't show the set goal. How do I know this? My then foreman was POd that his dept. didn't show the gain he knew it had done. Why? Because in midstream they changed the way it was figured, result, no bonus.
As far as why the UAW picked GM they have always targeted one of the big three knowing that the other two will following lead of the first

RE: I-94 through Chicago
A little further but a lot less hassle would be to go through Mi. and avoid Chicago and Milwaukee. According to Google Map it 164 mi and 2 hr & 41 min longer. Of course the time going through Chicago if you hit a bad time

RE: 5th Wheel Rails in Truck Bed
Gulfcoast, those were my thoughts when I removed the original rails. But since then we've had a truck camper, travel trailer and now our first 5er. Previously had 2 truck campers, 1 Travel trailer, 2 horse trailers, 2 car haulers, 1 enclosed. As you can see I've had a variety

RE: Cleaning out a DIY septic tank
You’re illegal if you’re in a first world country !!!
Call your local government zoning/sanitation department and ask them what they would do. Thinking you’ll find out the correct answer in a heartbeat.
Otherwise a YouTube link would be great.
DO NOT ask the government what they would do. Ask them what's required. If you tell them what you have there may be repercussions

RE: 5th Wheel Rails in Truck Bed
When I bought my dually it had the rails and I took them out and sold them, I was never going to get a 5th wheel. Well 5 years later guess what. I bought a 5th wheel so had to go buy rails and mounting brackets. You might want to take a bit to think about future possibilities. What I did when I took the old rails out was small carriage bolts and used silicone over them. That worked fine as I put a bed mat in.
