Pulling into Las Vegas tonight and looking for recomendations on a place to stay? Not looking for the nicest place in town but a place that is affordable.  Any help would be great! Thanks.

Just made the trip from KC to CO (Ft. Collins) over the week. Insane trip in itself seeing that I'm in a 74' Minnie Winnie, met some cool people along the way though. Anyway, now that we are here we need a place to camp. Not looking for anything to fancy, don't really even care to have hook ups...

On to the next problem lol, the other day I took my 74' Minnie Winnie up to the gas station and only made it right down the street before dying. It idle's fine in park until it gets to running temp then starts to run a little rough. When I put it in gear, drive or reverse it dies. Had to rebuild...

New to this whole RV thing. My RV has two propane hookups that run that stove and fridge. Where do I start when seeing if these work or has any leaks? Seems as simple as putting a full propane tank in and turning on the fridge and stove to see if they work? Is that insane or are there steps I...

Never heard of sea foam or Techron. Will give it a shot. Thanks Bill

Got everything back up and running. Seeing that the battery was dead I wasn't getting any gas pushed though when I was trying to start it. Once unhooked the fuel line from the carb used some starter fluid to get it going, I got rusty fuel squirting out.. let it run for awhile to flush what I...

Thanks John, but yes it cranks fine just not firing up? CFSUNRISE is right that it is a 360 Dodge chassis. Is there a way to check the ballast resistor or just go ahead and replace it? The RV sat for about a year before I bought it and figured maybe the gas that was in it has just turned to crap...

I have a 1974 minne winnie. Brought it home the other week with everything running just fine. Went to start it up two days ago and the battery was dead (not that big of a deal, just charged it up). After charging the battery when I go to start it, it will crank pretty good just wont turn all the...

I've looked a little on Craigslist and haven't had much luck. I'm looking for a spot to hookup somewhere around the Loveland/Ft. Collins area in Colorado. I have a 20' 74' Minnie Winnie. Power, water, ect. would be nice but I'm keeping my options open. Willing to pay for the right spot. Looking...

I have a 1974 minne winnie. I have taken some of the foam board down on the inside and it looks like the roof is just straight foam board to the alum. roof. Thinking about replacing the back 8' and front 4' with plywood while using the existing alum roof it has. Looks pretty simple as there is...

Hey there! names Brad from KC area. Just bought a 1974 minnie winnie, looking to replace the roof to fix some of the small leaks then she's good to go. Only 74k miles on it. Haven't been around RV's much in my life, to be honest w/ you not really even to sure how to hook it up to power but guess...
