Ladyk the GMC converted to a 5th wheel is a LOT different then the motorhome you pictured. the GMC is front wheel drive and as such when the drive train is removed becomes a trailer. And since the GMC motorhome has been brought up :) head over to GMC net and check them out! they come in 23 and...

I know this has been talked about before, But I guess it needs to be talked about again. For those of you that carry and want to visit Canada, we welcome you and there is a process to allow you to bring your guns with you. But what ever you do DON'T Lie to the border people they have no sense...

@metriRN It has been a very long discussion on the forum (and others) as to run or not run the propane while underway. for me I came to the conclusion that that great big 50 gallon Gasoline tank I haul around (and empty too quickly) has far less safety features then my fridge and propane tank...

Wow dry firewood at a campground! around here I am sure they soak it in anti flame solution for 2 weeks before selling it to you! It is so wet that IF you can get a small fire burning you have to dry the larger sticks on the grill so it will smolder for an hour or so. I plan on this season to...

See second paragraph of the post. "I know this RV has a Progressive Dynamics 5000 Series Automatic transfer Relay and Inverter" I would say that if the battery terminal was so corroded that it fell off then there is a good chance that the transfer switch is experiencing some corrosion of its...

about 4 years ago, maybe 5 we installed this https://www.homedepot.ca/en/home/p.trafficmaster-6-in-x-36-in-barnwood-resilient-plank-flooring-24-sq-ftcase.1000662815.html even though it says not to install it in a camper. the only issue we had was the first trip out the exhaust system runs close...

Self Insure. What I mean is, how much will the increase in premium cost you?  instead of paying the insurance company place that money in a savings account and leave it there. IF you total the jeep in the first year you lost sorry, BUT if you don't have damage and you keep the rig 10-15 years...

well the trailer is a real thing. http://rochester-wa.showmethead.com/trailers-mobile-homes/109952005-deuce-haul-combo-boatcar-trailer_18699960.html

That looks like a good idea. when I redo the plumbing in the next couple of years I will see about adding that in. the pump is in a tiny little hole in the far back under the bed. So the less I have to crawl under there the better. (the motorhome is 1977 with OEM plumbing that is just begging to...

well seeing as I can't take the rig south for the winter, and I don't want to remove the water pump for the winter, I don't have much choice. I only put enough to fill the pump so really not that much. just have to fill above the outlet so the pump can pick it up then I pull the drain on tank...

Just a silly question? how much antifreeze do you have to drain? The last pop up I had that had no holding tank took less then 2 seconds to clear the plumbing using the compressed air method to clear the water lines. Then less then a gallon of the pink stuff into the fresh water tank to keep...

Not that I plan on going full time and I have never been to the west coast. But I know here on the east coast if you are staying in an RV park for more then a week you can get better rates and in some of the parks long term stays have hard wire cable. with that of course you can get internet...

We went from a 22 foot class C to a 26 foot class A and have not found anyplace it won't fit, well except the parking spots in wal-mart. we have to take 2 now. and there is one very old national park campground here that the spots are not always level and one was only 25 feet of level space...

one of the easiest ways to tell is look at the brake pedal if over 150k then the driver would have worn one side or the other of the pedal. that and unless your buying a rare one-off super collectible million dollar machine. low mileage is bad. that means it has sat and the rubber is rotting...

My first thought when I looked at the pics was that I don't like the color. I like green more then brown. then I read all the comments here. then I read the blog on the build. nice work. so now my thought is...where are you going to go? and of course I have heard that these school bus...
