All great advice but I suggest to act as if you are camping in it with full hookups if possible.  Obviously, as stated, run fridge, a/c if it has it, heating, all outlests, but also run the sinks, toilet, check for leaks, and if at all possible, check the valves on the waste tanks.  One member...

Rigid Industries is a company that has kind of pioneered led offroad lights for vehicles and they are very nice.  I was on their site and they now offer rv leds.  I have not gotten a chance to order any yet but planning on it.  Just a thought.

I dont think I buy the cold weather answer from the seller.  You said it only happens when the slide is almost all the way in.  At that point is when the heaviest load is being utilized on the slide motor.  That would make sense.  most slide motors kind of click when they are all the way in or...

One word.............DURAMAX!!

Look at the quality of the convection and what it does.  I bought one for my home and after I learned how to use it, I love it.  The important thing about convections is portion size and sticking to it.  Mine came with a recipe book and if I deviated from the amounts the recipe called for things...

I have a duramax 2500 shortbed and tow a 36ft fw that weighs 15k loaded.  I have a B&W hitch setup which I think is the best.  I have NO problems!  I have airbags in the rear with an onboard compressor but even before I installed that it still towed fine!  With the truck you have you can tow...

Well, first off, a 2013??  can you take it in for warranty?  If not, on most slides there is a wiring harness that is connected to a plastic casing to support the wiring as it moves in and out.  Check that it is not being pinched anywhere.  Also, the slides are obviously heavy.  While trying to...

Slow down, way to many questions.  Jayco=great great tt!  Arctic package always great to have.  It not only benefits you in cold weather but helps in warm weather.  I HIGHLY reccomend arctic packages always because you never know what your future will hold or where might be.  Having an enclosed...

To the gentleman(I wont say names) who decided he needed to send me an email to my personal address indicating basically my opinion was wrong that that using this contraption was the ONLY safe way to tow a fw....its not necessary to respond to me personally via my private email nor is it...

Just keep pulling that bitch and dont worry so much about the weight.  If your happy with how fast you can motor down the highway, up hills and grades, and have good braking,  your good.  Watch your temperatures in the pickup, especially when towing in the warmer months, and get after it!!! ...

Having towed both tts and now a fw, we all know towing a fw is much nicer.  tts can sway at high speeds and all the weight slamming down on the rear of your pickup instead of right over the rear axle makes towing more difficult.  A larger fw loaded can have 3000 pounds of weight and I dont think...

If you ever want to try and calculate how many amps you may be using at once take the rating of the power source i.e. (most space heaters are 1500 watts) divide that by 120.  this equals 12.5 amps.  Space heaters will use always all the available amps that a 15 amp breaker has so be careful. ...

Thx warsw.  This is what I am doing.  Again, its just nice to get confirmation that I am doing the right thing as far as installation.  I am always hooked up to power with the exception of a power outage so I think this will work fine.  I have an easily accessible spot in the belly of my fw...

Thanks to both of you.  I was thinking the same in my mind but it is great to get reassurance from other people that I am doing things right.  Much appreciated!!

I want more hot water.  I have a 2011 fw with a suburban gas/electric dsi water heater.  I am looking to add a 6 gallon unit i found online.  it is a residential unit that will fit where I want it to.  Of course it is only electric 120v so I will only use it when plugged into shore power.  Im...
