This is why I love my remote entry key pad on our new tow vehicle.  ;D I also hide a spare key to every vehicle on the outside that does not have the key pad to open it.

^^  This, AND  many people do not use enough water in their flushing.  Adding the lavatory drain would help those folks...

Get the Sway Control bar.  It will make a lot of difference.  Just remember it is best to remove it if backing or turning too tight.

The only auctions I know of that will tell you the damage in advance would be an Insurance salvage auction. If this is the case just be aware.  Vehicles only get to these sales when the cost to repair approaches or exceeds 70% of the market value.  IF the damage is only cosmetic and you can...

Make sure the head unit is sealed good or cover it when parked. I had one on my TT. The trailer was parked and set up with out moving for a couple of years.  When I went to move it...  the jack was rusted solid from water intrusion.  I could  not even use the manual method on it.  Had to use a...

Likely a good choice for you. I went with the Eco-Boost over the F250 as my towing is a very small part of total driving. I have not been able to get the advertised MPG with mine.  Im not dis-satisfied with MPG, but not what is advertised(for me) Mine is still bone stock with no add ons.  I...

.. Actually... There can be a really large difference in the value of TLRC and ACV + Gap. TLRC = Current model year value for Like Kind and Quality. (LKQ) ACV+Gap = ACV(of LKQ same year model) plus balance to pay off your current rig. Above there are two different terms used that mean very...

I like Rene made one of these with a piece of wire.  Then later did use an automotive fuse.  Yes the blades will span and work. This give the added protection of a fuse.  $20 a pop is more than I would pay. BUT if I was not a handyman and wanted one, Its reasonable given the fact it likely uses...

What kind of 'issue" did you have?  If lightning damage yes.  If some other type of power surge, likely not. As mentioned, Just find a micro/convection that matches you demensions.  You may have to mount the brackets to the new unit by drilling holes in the outer case. 

I use a nipple that screws into the water supply on the outside of the trailer. Then I use my "pancake compressor" with an end that will attach and hold itself on the nipple/schrade valve(like a tire valve stem). Dial down the pressure with the regulator.  Open the drain valve on the hot water...

we had a little extra room and extended our deck. then bought a new Queen mattress with the pillow top.  i am 6'2 and needed the extra 6" of length.

+1 on the blow out the lines. our TT is set up on a site by the river. that is what we did last year and it worked great.

Put me in the camp with do both is you need faster recovery. Our trailer is set up on a rented lot and stays there.  When we arrive I put the slide out and turn on the electric water heater element and turn water on outside.  IF we are taking multiple showers or need faster recovery time.  I...

I like this comment.  I may use it again one day!!! As for who would expect to use the MH.....    The same ones that live in Grand Pa's old house and don't take care of it.  IM GUESSING here but they likely don't pay rent there either. OP,  Sorry you are in this situation.  There does not...

Put me in the group of blow out the lines. Our TT is set up on a campsite with city water also.  I take my pancake compressor and blow the lines out and drain the water heater. Don't forget  to blow out the toilet line and disconnect the shower head too. Then I pour a little pink stuff down the...
