Thanks, coxid. Yes you are correct; however I wasn't suggesting the wind lowers the ambient temperature. I was referring to the amount of time required to freeze the unit. For example, if human skin is exposed to a 15mph wind with an ambient temperature of 0F, human skin will freeze in 30...

You're very welcome. The idea of the Aqua Go is compelling. We really enjoyed the endless hot water. It's a great product when used as marketed. It's not too complicated, but most RV salespeople are not trained on showing the customer how to use it, and none (according to what I have seen) warn...

Thanks, Lou. Oh, yes I definitely remember you. I've lost track of everybody. When Harlan Smith died, for some reason that pretty much marked the end of my involvement in the forum. Man we had some good times at those many little gatherings we managed to arrange. I had the RVForum.com domain...

That's That's good information. I'll check it out. I would go back to a Suburban if I had the option, but I know the hole is too small for that. I thought  they were all too large. Maybe not.

Eighteen months ago I purchased a new Holiday Rambler 40D with an AquaGo Instant Water heater (DKE60C-27267015). It doesn?t get too cold here in South Mississippi, but early this years the temp dropped to 17 and if froze. I had heaters running in the RV but it was not enough. I learned an...

Thanks! Yes, it's under warranty, but it may not be worth making and appointment, spending $100 on diesel, and the whole day driving back and forth to the dealer. If the motor is the problem I may not have a choice. I was praying for advice on finding a better alternative.

Bought my 2018 HR Rambler 40D last June (2017). The left windshield wiper is malfunctioning. When using while driving, every third or fourth swipe on the high speed setting, the wiper blade will move out over the left pillar, get momentarily stuck and come flapping back with a large bang. You...

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone. Glad my wife talked me out of making our first trip in the new rig the day before Thanksgiving. I've seen a lot of cars in my day, but the traffic on I-12/I-10 between Hammond, LA and Houston, TX was the worst I have ever seen. I've been in traffic jams before in...

kwajkat, I WISH. But, as I get older, she gets more raises. Right now we are almost neck and neck. I pay the bills and she stashes hers away. Raised in Europe, she is a big saver. According to her, I owe her about $4 million now. LOL! Hopefully, I'll win the lottery some day, and be able to pay...

PatrioticStabilist, Killer and BJ have never been anywhere. Even the vet makes house calls. The only animals that come into our house are mice, lady bugs, red wasp, yellow jackets, skinks and chameleons. So far we have kept the snakes, alligators, raccoon, armadillos, deer, possums, wild hogs...

Wi1dBill, I am going to try real hard not to do that. LOL! That's what the woods are for. Just be careful of the concealed bear traps. Hurts real bad when you finally run out of chain.

Thanks Linedog. Everything seems to be working now. 

Thanks, Rebelsun. CHET, how nice to hear from you. It's been 15 years or more I guess. You can't imagine how much we want to come to the rally in Yellowstone. There is a small chance, but my wife works full-time, and May is usually one of her busiest months. Besides, she has to earn money to pay...

You may have read about my furnace woes in the Tech forum, but there is levity in every situation. To make a long story short, I was complaining that the A/C fan motor was running constantly when the furnace was selected on the thermostat. Turned out is was an option, and the dealer neglected to...

Thanks, Gary. That makes sense. But the constant howling of the fan makes it difficult to carry on a conversation in the living room. If the fan would stop when the correct temperature is reached it would be a better idea. We have a ceiling fan. Rather use that than the nosy A/C motor. I can...
