Not sure if I had the same type set up as you but I recently removed all the seatbelt bars from my motorhome to do a remodel. The large bracket under the dinette bench seat was bolted to the floor w/ 8 bolts. The bolts went all the way through the floor to the underneath of the motorhome. It...

Good stuff John. I will look into the Gen-Turi. I did not have any alarms while driving down the road with the genny and the oil leak it had has stopped (yes it still has plenty of oil ;D). I will be watching it closely. I think it had not been run enough. Didn't know I had to run it once a...

Hello and welcome! I am new to RVing. It is just my kiddo and I most of the time. Looking forward to making new friends!

You guys are awesome and I feel like an idiot...I knew it had to be plugged in but in the cold I was fighting the cord and forgot to plug it in. {face palm} Thanks for your patience and help!!!

I have a house battery disconnect switch but it was on (green light showing) the entire time.

Probably should have learned my system better before setting off on this trek across country in freezing temps. It was a medically necessary trip for a friend...otherwise I would have had plenty of time to study up. Ignorance is no excuse though!

I am very new to this RV and I don't know the answers to these questions but I will find out and check these systems. I appreciate all of the information. The weather is finally warming up and I will have some days off this weekend to check everything out!

I will double check all of my connections. I guess it's possible something worked loose.  I will make sure the shore line cord is plugged in like it is supposed to be.  The chassis battery did just fine throughout the trip.

Ok...I just got home from a 2600+ mile trip up from OK to NJ and back. Very cold temps with some ice and snow. I was reading up before I left that I should run the generator while running down the road so that I could run the heat in the back passenger compartment. I turned the generator on but...

Merry Christmas!

Good advice sir. If I could take more time to enjoy the drive I certainly would. My friend and I are tag-teaming the driving. We will be switching  out frequently to prevent fatigue. I will definitely have full tank of propane.  Heading out Wednesday...just hope the weather will play nice?

Heading out to NJ to pick up my kiddo. Dual purpose trip to help a friend bring her very ill brother to OK. Making round trip 2600 miles in 6 days. Should be interesting ?

I have a filter pitcher that I drink water from. Travels well but again this will be my first longer trip. Really looking forward to this week on the road. Hopefully the weather will play nice?

I am new to RVing (motorhome) ownership myself. I have just googled and youtubed tons of information and anything I could think of that I might want to know. I have read every "new to RVing" article, journal, or post I could find. I have not come across any serious problems yet...well except for...

Yeah...I drove an ambulance for many years and was always super cautious with noises my truck made as well as what it felt like as pertaining to handling. I was taught to drive and corner as if my "family heirloom grandfather clock were being transported and could not tipped over"...LOL! My rig...
