    Is it possible..

    My wife asked me if it was possible to put an eye bolt in the ceiling to hang a chair hammock inside the motorhome? I said no way but just wanted to make sure I wasn't totally wrong. Granted she's only 110 Pounds I still said no. It doesn't seem like the roof trusses in our jayco c class would...

    Leaving the water heater element on?

    Can I leave my hot water tanks electric element on all the time when we are at the campground? I've been turning it on when I know we will likely use hot water then shut it off when we are finished. Does it have a thermostat to kick on and off when need be? I didn't want to burn up the element...

    stumped on a water heater

    So I've had an interesting experience with the attempt to purchase this 99 Thor. As I said in an earlier post, after two offers and then told by the broker they were waiting for a service company to give an estimate and an un-returned phone call, I haven't had any contact with the listing broker...

    Opinion on 98 Bounder

    Been looking for a used class a. Came across a Fleetwood bounder 34V and we liked the layout and huge slide out it has. I'm not so sure about the tag axle. Our tow vehicle would be a chevy cruze so I'm not sure its needed but I'm not against it. The bounder is in very good condition and has no...

    I'm still waiting on the RV broker to get a repair estimate for a couple items so we can agree on the 11k price tag on the Thor. I refused to agree on the 11k because that price was with everything in working condition and when we looked at it they couldn't get the generator running and the...

    I came across a 98 Damon Intruder which seems like a decent coach for the year. I spoke with the owners and they said the coach was in great shape everything works and has never had any type of water damage and the tires are only a couple years old with less than a few thousand miles on them. If...

    I can tell from hearing the engine running that the right front manifold had a slight leak which I already had quoted 400$ from a local exhaust shop for both to be removed and new studs and gaskets installed on the V10. They told me they see the V10 with broken factory studs quite often.

    Well I think the price is gonna come to be $11,000. Seems like a fair price comparing it to some similar models that are quite a bit more. Waiting for the broker to give me a response from the seller. The broker said they will have an outside mechanic come and inspect the coach and everything...

    I'm brand new to the RV industry and currently looking but I just wanted to chime in on the lender aspect of it. My credit union has no age they wont finance, however when they check the blue book value they expect the loan to be within a certain percentage of the blue book value. I was...
