RE: Tires
What you should do is dump those "D" rated tires and get a set of "E"'s. Run them up to 70psi and not worry about anything.

RE: Pet Peeves long road trip
Law of the road....whoever has the biggest, baddest vehicle has the right-of-way. RV's win, except against semi's.

RE: Diesel Towing MPG With Ultralight Trailer
My 2001 Dodge Ram 2500 5.9 diesel saw 19mpg empty, 13 towing 7,500 lbs.
My 1997 F250 460 gasser got 7-8mpg empty. Forget towing....too expensive.
My 2000 F350 7.3 diesel sees 15-16mpg empty, 12.5 towing my 8,000 pound 5th 5th wheel..

RE: My dinette light fixture fell down
Wrap some teflon tape around the screw, or use one size larger screw.

A toaster? That's a lot of wattage. Anything with heating elements eats up power....FAST.

RE: Dometic RM2607 Refrigerator problem
Try putting a bag of ice in it to help speed up the cooling process. An empty fridge takes longer to cool down than a full fridge.

RE: Life of AC?
If it was run on low voltage it could need replaced. Low voltage will destroy a A/C unit.
Tell me about it. LOL.

I replaced my AC this spring. It was 20 years old. $600 and 2 hours of my labor.

RE: Residential Style Central Air - NOT Roof Air Question
It's something you can't do, unless you have gauges, a refrigerant vacuum, AC "keys", and the correct refrigerant.

RE: Texas trip cancelled!
If you are a fan of statistics, you will be happy to know that the COVID death rate in Texas is 10 for every 100,000 people and in Colorado it is 30 for every 100,000 people. So you are three times more likely to die of COVID in Colorado than you are in Texas. Don't you just love statistics?!
LOL. That was yesterdays news. Texas has hit all time highs in infections and deaths/day.

RE: THOR Quantum 25RC Rear Stabilizer Jack issues
If you were in the boonies, what would you do? Learning as much about your toy is part of the RV adventure. Fixing it yourself leaves you the opportunity of helping someone else down the road....with confidence.
But, you always put it in a shop for three weeks and let them fix it.

RE: Texas trip cancelled!
Your Plan B sounds pretty doggone nice. I've been both places and I think I'd rather be in the Rockies.
Good luck.
Galveston Texas: 90* and 74% humidity
Rocky Mountain NP: 70* and 22% humidity
No brainer there (without the added covid19 fiasco of Texas).
Have a great time.

RE: Generator only runs if engine is on
You just joined. Always state Year,Brand and Model of RV. State Model of appliance also. Onan gensets require a constant 12 volt supply to stay running. Your scenario points to either a faulty fuel pick up system install or your Coach battery and charging system is not operating correctly or your coach battery is dead and bad and needs replaced. Gensets do NOT have a battery charge circuit. The battery is charged by your Converter or Inverter/Charger with 120 current supplied by the Genset. Doug
Exactly. Check your converter to see if it is charging your battery. Then check to see if that battery is holding a charge.

RE: old furnace replacement help on ducts?
Touching the two wires together is the correct way to see if the blower motor works.
