I kinda cheated, I lived out of a pickup for years due to my job (trucker) and having next to nothing from home so everything i owned fit into 2 medium uhaul boxes....

Gahh sorry for the late reply ive been so busy lately i had entirely forgotten about this thread, That said the trailer was about a foot off the ground problem is that the parking spot was rutted so there was a 2 foot hole in the ground under the tires so it fell from knee height im lucky it...

Aye that's what I was afraid of, my pump is under the trailer behind a panel in a box and has about 40 bolts to get at it or I need to fully remove either the toilet and dividing wall or the entire fridge, It's not a good design but with how small a trailer it is it's the only place to put it...

So got a question for ya all, so the fuse in my water pump blew out a couple weeks ago and I just got around to swapping it today (I'm on camp water so no need for pump) well my box says 5 amp but it had a 10 amp fuse in it, So i figure guy who owned it before me put in the wrong fuse and I'm...

As much as I hate acknowledging politics on forums due to the tendency for it to blow up putting a picture of her anywhere will cause the curse of massive government taxes and regulations to fall upon your home....trailer....whatever I would go scrub that picture off....with fire

Little recipe I made by accident I thought I would share with ya guys and get some opinions on, this is a filling used for tacos, burritos, and Bell peppers (for those of you with a toaster oven) give it a try and let me know what you think! Serves 3-4 1 lb extra lean ground beef 1 large white...

I had this problem so I bought a cheap R/C helicopter and I charge them with it, Crows ignored it right up until I crashed the chopper into one of them at full speed, 4 days of that and they now avoid my trailer like the plague even months later and go bother my neighbor, plus it's a fun...

Well first thing I need to point out is you gotta check the weight limit of your truck, some on the low end for that year of tundras have a max towing compacity of 4800 pounds others on the high end have 10800 from what I can find, that's a huge weight difference, and if you overload the truck...

This one I can help with, I have a 2011 Silverado 1500 with the 5.3 engine, trailering package and 6 speed auto-manual transmission, factory gearing was 3.08 I upgraded to 3.73, I also added an extra leaf to the springs and upgraded my brakes and shocks to the same ones used on a 2500, I know...

Probly a wise idea but I like it here :p besides have a good job driving a dump truck and aside from water line issues and rabbits it's not that bad.

So I officially hit my 6 month mark as a full timer in the wonderful state of north dakota a couple days ago and figured I would share what I have learned for anyone else considering full timing when totally new to R.Vs, New as in never even seen one up close before starting to shop for one AND...

First day I owned my TT I went to put my water hose on and twisted the valve so hard I broke the plastic pipe and didn't realize it till water started to leak out the bottom...oops easy fix thankfully, 2 week I owned it I tried to Jack it onto stands and leaned against it and the trailer fell...

I laugh at people who assume new means bug free, Hell my pickup was new and in the first 5k miles needed a new altinator a new exaust (no really who puts a .5 inch diameter exaust on a 5.3 liter pickup) and the headlight harness was bad, no problems since. New just means if properly cared for...

So i recently had the onboard waterpump in my 18 foot echo bandit fry on me (dead for good the leads to the motor melted) after checking my wiring for a short all the way to my fusebox and finding nothing, Not even a tripped fuse i must conclude it died of natural causes and will be buried in...

Your likely right, could you recomend a good relaible and safe brand for me? When i bought mine it had the best reviews of the lot that i could find.
