As a "newbie" into Rv'in and after just buying our first one, it is great to see this thread and we hope to be able to post our own version of it in the future! We tend to buy new and then keep maintenance up and run it a long time, as we get to know it.  That is evidenced by the 1993 boat we...

Thanx John.  I-40 coming down and into Asheville was the culprit!

Oldedit, we really appreciated all of your posts and the responses by others.  Thanks! My wife, Linda, and I bought a new 2014 Reyo T in August.  We have had it on two trips so far.  Both trips around 2,500 miles.  We live in southwest Florida and went up to the Smokies and North Carolina and...

Got a call from the Encore campground in Crystal River last week asking me if we were coming in.  I told them I had cancelled and what had transpired during the cancellation process.  The lady told me that it wasn't in their computer and would talk with their manager.  She called back to tell me...

We are currently in North Carolina, after towing the toad from Florida and through the Georgia mountains.  The Jeep Patriot towed very well. As you noted, the milage is not logged when the key is in the unlock position.  I have noted four positions (off, unlocked, accessories, run). The Patriot...

The Florida State Park contractor for reservations charges $17 to cancel.

Thanx, I will try to make a copy of the message recording.

I made a reservation for an Encore property in Florida on October 2nd.  The reservation was made for early November and they asked me for a credit card and would charge half of the reservation to it.  Last week My wife and I got news that our daughter has been diagnosed with cancer.  So we...

The lady in the office didn't seem to care and just assigned another site.  Of course, I had to motor from the back of the campground to the front three times.

We recently started Rv'in (August) with an Itasca Reyo.  As we drove the highways, we always checked what others were towing.  This site has also been very helpful in my understanding of what works/doesn't work.  So we settled on a 2014 Jeep Patroit with the manual transmission and a curb weight...

We are on our very first trip with our Itasca Reya.  After reading this forum's posts to learn as much as possible, I bought a surge protector and tester.  Sure enough, our third stop at Green Mountain in Lenoir, NC put it to the test!  Three sites (probably on the same power leg and next to...

John, Stu, Jim, Thank you!  This is great advice and makes a lot of sense.  John, the tires were at 75.5 psi from the dealer and the chart on the door states 61.  So I tried to set them to 61psi cold.  I do agree with your guidance on getting the rv weighed and adjusting from there.  But you...

Heard from the tire store today that the tire is scheduled to come in tomorrow.  So they have the wheel and will install the tire as soon as they can.  Yeah! The TPMS also came in today and I just finished installing it and the six sensors.  With the SS Trim rings and hubs off on the rear axle...

Our first trip is now delayed.  It turns out that the Continental tire needed (LT 215/85 R16 E) Vanta Four Season is not in stockin this area and will have to be shipped in.  So we are looking at a six day delay, hopefully less! After changing the dual outer tire to the spare I read the manual...

Alfa38User, Thanks for the response.  Today I removed the bad tire and replaced it with the spare.  It was quite an experience!  Those lug nuts were on tight.  Once I broke them free, it was pretty straight forward. As for installing the TPMS senders, it will be a little tricky, as there are...
