RE: WHAT dinghy or toad is good to tow ???
Look at a Chevrolet Equinox. All models were 4 down towable up to 2017, after then certain engine / transmission combos were towable. Easy to tow, start it up for a couple of minutes before and after towing, remove one fuse for towing. Hook it up, put trans in neutral, turn key to off, DO NOT REMOVE KEY, steering will stay unlocked till key is removed. Your ready to tow.

RE: Dish Playmate hookup
Odds are your RV has splitters in the cable coax. Satellite antennas will not work with splitters in the coax. As stated above they must have a direct coax connection between the antenna and the receiver.

RE: Dish Network receiver question
It is my understanding that DISH will not allow two Hoppers on the same account. Also, as others have said, you need a Winegard Trav'ler or R F Mogul Eagle open face three LNB type antenna on your RV to use a Hopper, NO DOME ANTENNAS.

RE: Winegard Traveller T4 or DISH Wally Problem?
Remove the "Sat In" coax from the Wally receiver. Now run "Checkswitch" til the receiver says it can find no satellites. Select SAVE for this option. Turn everything off. Now re-connect the coax to the "Sat In" on the Wally and re-start the antenna and Wally. It should now receive all three satellites.

RE: gas millage
In my experience the best gas mileage was attained when going down hill with a tail wind. I often reached in excess of 40 mpg. All other times about 8 mpg was normal.

RE: Blue Ox or Road Master
Anything but Blue Ox. Some of the worst loadstress engineering and welds I have ever seen in 28+ years of automotive engineering.

RE: RV ANTENNAS.... AGAIN
The OP is referring to the Winegard Rayzor Automatic antenna. It is a auto rotate and find small dome OTA antenna. It is not omni directional. It's reception is much better than a omni but not near as good as the batwing crank up type.

RE: Tow Bar Age
I am still using the same Demco Commander tow bar that I bought in 2008. It's still tight and sound. I recently had a machine shop friend of mine magnaflux all the welds and no problems were found. The reason Blue Ox says their tow bars need replacing is because they are aware of the build quality and want to sell you a new one.

RE: Dinghy Tow Tacoma w/Manual Transmission
If I remember correctly they said that Toyota makes no vehicle that can be towed 4 down(but I'm not positive on that one).
Actually that is incorrect, Toyota has made several models that are flat towable. However Toyota does not approve of ANY of it's products being towed 4 down. They just don't want the legal liability and warranty hassles involved. For example since 2010 Toyota has made a 4Runner edition called the OFF ROAD or later TRD OFF ROAD that has a MANUAL shift transfer case and is 4 down towable.
Any Toyota product that has a MANUAL shift transfer case is 4down towable.

RE: Keeping water out of revoltuon mh engine air intake
Think you should look at the bottom of your air filter canister, there should be a a small water drain hole. I know mine has one.

RE: Florida
We are taking a wait and see attitude. Currently in the county where we stay in Florida the infection rate is 10 times what it is in our home location and it's getting worse. So things don't look promising for this coming winter.

RE: "scrubbing on 2015 equinox, new blue ox
Is your 2015 Equinox a 4 cyl model? Does it have a key ignition or push button? If it has a key what position are you putting the key in when towing, ACC or OFF?

RE: flat towing a toad
The Chevy Equinox is a very popular suv toad. I see a lot of them . Both front wheel drive and all wheel drive Models can still be towed 4 down. Priced more reasonably.
X 2 The Equinox makes a great toad, easy to setup, easy to tow, weighs 3900lbs to 4200lbs depending on model.

RE: Synthetic Trans Fluid
You need to find a different mechanic, he is taking you to the cleaners over recommending unneeded services. With Transynd, your transmission is good for 150,000 miles or 6000 hours of operation or 48 months whichever comes first. The filters need to be changed 75,000 miles or 3000 hours of operation or 36 months whichever comes first. This is as per the Allison service manual.
