RE: Bill giving residents priority at booking FL state parks

As Bucky said, Let's not forget that Floridians over 65 already get half off pricewise. That does not apply to non-residents.

RE: Online Tire Ordering

I went with Firestone instead of Michelon the last tire change and they have performed well, 50,000 miles in 8 years. Almost time for a new set.

RE: Peace River Campground in Arcadia Florida

I've stayed further downriver at Deep Creek. I bet it also was underwater.

RE: Pleasure-Way Air Suspention leak

My 1997 Xplorer 230XL has rear air bags and the right side has a slow leak I live with. A panel truck ran into me in a backup and caused it. The air holds for a week or more then slowly it goes down.

RE: AAA Roadside Service

I also have AAA+, and only had to wait once for 1 1/2 hours on a freeway at night. Other times very quick response. It all depends upon the location and time.

RE: Resealing Fiberglass Roof

My Class B fiberglass roof had a small gouge and a small spot of spider web cracking. I cleaned it and covered with eternabond tape 2 years ago. No problems.

RE: Water heater temperature

I leave the water heater off, only turning it on 18-20 minutes before taking a shower. That gets the hot water to a temp I can use without cold water. It may take a few tries to figure out how long to leave it on. Saves a lot of water.

Unless preserving a rare historic vehicle.... get a replacement converter.

That's the one I replaced my old Magnatek with and am glad I did.

RE: 2012rvlife.com

I had to replace my old FF and just went with the new one. The new one was very noisy. FF sent me a new motor. While it is better it is still louder than the old motor which I kept. I wish I could just install it but the old motor is higher than the new one & looks like it will not fit.

RE: Solar question

I've been using a 120 watt portable panel for years. It works great. I bought another 60 watt panel to use beside it.

RE: Air Canada flights may be cancelled.

This is what I do not understand. Airlines know they do not have enough pilots & other staff to operate their schedules. They are now cutting them back. WHy didn't they do that months ago? That would have eliminated many of the canceled flights.

RE: Tire longevity

I have 8 years and 50,000 miles on Firestone Transforce HT tires on my Class B motorhome. They look good without any cracking so I'm thinking I can get more use from them. Maybe another year or 2.

RE: Traveling with Propane on

I precool my 3way fridge on electric then drive with it on 12volt. When I get where I'm going I will turn it to propane. If I need to get gas I turn it off at the fridge, gas up, and when out of the gas station will ignite the propane back on.

RE: The man who invented the Motorhome

Interesting. Ray Frank and his wife invented the term 'motorhome'. They were in a small town in Michigan, Brown City. Therre is a sign as you enter that says "Brown City birthplace of the motorhome".
I have driven an Xplorer 230 XL for 22 years.
