Hi 2 Piece, First off, great camper! Question for you...I see you deployed the jacks when you were still mounted on the truck.  Is that to level out the camper or are you looking to take weight off the bed?  I'm curious because I've never done it.  We always keep it mounted and I never deploy...

I also like simple green. My dad used it for years and now I do too.

How does this stuff look to everyone? https://www.amazon.com/Camco-Mfg-30757-Marine-Antifreeze/dp/B0000AXY9C/ref=sr_1_14?keywords=propylene+glycol+antifreeze&qid=1572987440&sr=8-14 I think this 100% propylene glycol and consequently safer for humans and the water system...

Thanks to everyone for all the feedback on this. Gary, thanks so much for finding the data sheets!  I really appreciate the help and they prove how similar the products are.  The data sheets are eye opening though because both bottles say non-toxic.  Reading the data sheets, these chemicals...

Do you think I should flush it and start over?  It's not going to create any kind of a chemical reaction between the two is it? Thanks

Thanks, Roy. That makes me feel better, that's what I was hoping too.

Hi All, This past weekend I winterized my camper.  I ran out of antifreeze so I ran to the store and picked up a couple more bottles. I mixed two different brands and now I'm worried it's not safe.  I didn't realize there are different types of rv antifreeze. Please can anyone tell me if...

Lou, thanks so much for that thorough explanation!  I really learned something here!  I really appreciate you explaining it. So in this case it may have been the quality of the propane as it reached the end of the tank.  Also, who knows if maybe there was just some gas lingering in the line...

Hi All, thanks for the input on this one.  I cleaned it this past weekend and replaced the LP tank. It ran for at least an hour so I think I'm good!  Is it possible a low tank will allow the stove to light but not run the water heater?  It didn't seem to work after I cleaned it so I'm thinking...

Please will someone help me with a hot water heater issue. When I light the pilot on the hot water heater, I can see there is soot or something to the right of the pilot on the side of the tube that is burning.  I was initially going to just leave it and let it burn off.  However, that's not...

Oh I should add that the truck is already off to the mechanic for an oil change and general overall check... Just trying to prevent any problems...

Hi, I'm a newbie here.  I'm looking for advice from anyone using the Brophy Clamp On Camper Tie-Downs.  I just took my truck and camper out of storage from its second winter and I'm thinking it might be time to tighten these bad boys.  Two of them seem just a little loose.  I didn't install...

I Googled "Dave Matthews dump" and got this: https://www.chicagotribune.com/chi-0503100266mar10-story.html

Thanks so much to both of you for the kind words!  Maybe someday I'm going to upgrade my rig but this is just perfect for me right now. 

Hi, sorry I'm late to this thread, but I had the same issue. My husband passed away and I didn't want to let go of his truck. It's only an F150 so I had to find a camper that could work with the payload restrictions. I did a ton of research and every where I looked I was brought back to the...
