RE: Why do you Cummins guys want more gears
Maybe we need to get started talking about what electric truck will be best?

RE: Why do you Cummins guys want more gears
I don't care how many gears it has. I just want it to allow me to pull the trailer up hills and not break when I need it.
If they need to make the gears a lighter weight more suseptable to breakage to get them all in he transmission, I'd prefer fewer heavier gears and reliability.
I feel as you do but the important thing to me is have a truck that matches what it needs to tow. 5 gears works great for us. chevman

RE: Bedroom door
not enough information for me to understand door or flex in the frame. Guessing flex in the Lippert frame. Have installed doors of homes for many years and have had several rv's and no issues. Homes are different of course but a good quality fifthwheel can have the same pocket door hardware as a home can have but I didn't think I saw it was a pocket door on the post. Pictures would make it much easier to understand. chevman

RE: Anyone interested in 83 Pace Arrow Tear down and Rebuild?
I made 2 chest of drawers to hold items from the fifthwheel we sold. Easy for me to figure how to figure out the spacing. Made 3 the same and the bottom what was left because usually the drawers are larger on the bottom. The face fronts are made for the nice even space that shows.

RE: I just got the new RV Magazine
I have read 3 issues so far and simply thumbed through 85% of the pages. Nothing pertains to an ordinary camper. I always try to keep politics out of camping, but since Marcus said that he did not need Trump voters support, the magazin has leaned left. It is like it is written for and by Liberal Yuppies that need help camping. I used to read every word of every issue and then take it to my favorite shops that had mags in the waiting room and I would watch people reach for it instead of SI or PEOPLE. Now, I am embarrassed to show it. I do not read it no and will not share it. SAD situation.
I said the same as you have done. Very quickly my post was gone. Looked at the latest issue but only the pictures and in the trash it went. Most magazines are not worth the money anymore. chevman

RE: Extended warranty - best options?
I have lost money on any warranty for years. Bought a 2001 Alpenlite and a warranty for half price and still lost $400.00. chevman

RE: Torquing tire stud by hand
I look at it this way it is you money if you feel better doing it do it. Don't listen to no one but your self.
I feel as you do it is my stuff and our money. I have wheel balancers on our 2021 TT and always balanced the G tires on our Alpenlite fifth

RE: Camping World Coburg Oregon OK ?
how about a mobil rv tech? they come to you, and wern,t flipping burgers last week.
Dumb comment. What exactly is your background in the field of mechanics and what's required to work in a repair facility. How many are certified welders and have a background as electricians. Do you believe that just anyone can do service work on a chassis that was "flipping burgers" the day before. ever done a break job or service an engine before........
We have used mobile rv techs 3 times. Very great experience. When an rv tech drives up and has an awesome vehicle and starts to visit with you it will be a clue if he knows anything. chevman

RE: 2020 sales
I never felt our 05 duramax needed a 6 speed. But if ya never drive one maybe it would be better. I never drive a newer truck than I have unless I am thinking of a trade. Happy is the best. chevman

RE: Looking for New Fifth Wheel with Bigger Windows
We bought our 2001 35 ft RK alpenlite because of the windows. Others have entered it and wow all the windows. Now we might get to go south in Oct and have much less windows to enjoy the views so again I say NOTHING IS PERFECT for everybody. Be safe chevman

Death wobble
I have been watching lots of Y tube and the Fords seem to be having issues. My 49 ford pickup had death wobble but it was needing work done. Not liking to hear about any new trucks have old issues.
