I hope this is the right area to post this. It'll be brief because I'm typing on my phone. ;) Anyway, we are full timing in our 5er toy hauler with four young children and the other day hubby noticed what he thinks is a small area of delamination on the master slide out. He said he resealed it...

I like the idea of doing school outside, we will do it as much as possible haha. I've been homeschooling for 4 years already so that part is not a big deal.

Thanks, I'll look! :)

My husband and I have been camping since before we had kids and slowly progressed from tent to pop-up to TT and are in the process of purchasing a 2013 Heartland Cyclone 4100. It's a toyhauler with some winter options (heated underbelly and such) with plenty of room for our four young kids...

Well, my husband took it to two different hitch places and they could not identify it. It seems that the hole in the picture is where the ball should go- but that would but a huge base for the ball and they said they have never seen anything like it. I suggested that might be a spot for a...

Thanks! We looked under the truck and couldn't see any logo or anything on it, but will look again. Could be it's up on the side where we can't get to it. I was wondering if it was a B&W. Hubby is taking it to a hitch place today to let them have a look.

I apologize if this is a double post. Having some technical issues. Anyway, we bought a used truck and it has this hitch in it that is missing the ball. Anyone have an idea of what it is? Can we buy any ball online to replace it or should it be brand specific? We are supposed to go pick up our...

Thanks, yeah I think I really want a stackable. We'll just have to do some modifications since the 5er we are going to get is prepped for an all in one. I have no idea about the breakers and such but hopefully it doesn't need anything drastic...because I really want it to work out! We generate...

I was afraid to drive my husband's dually as well...but I've done it a few times now and it's fine! That being said, I previously drove and ambulance and also drove my hubby's lifted Chevy 1500 that he used to have so big vehicles are not completely foreign to me. Maybe take her to an empty lot...

Thanks...soo, we ordered an Anderson. Despite the misgivings expressed by some here and on other forums that popped up on a google search, it seems that's because this hitch is a newer design and everyone compares it too regular gooseneck conversions. It does not void the warranty which to our...

We looked at the Anderson and are intrigued since there is a gooseneck already in the truck. The only thing is it is missing the ball and we can't seem to identify what manufacturer it is. My husband took a flashlight out there and couldn't see a logo or anything. He's going to look again in the...

Ha! Yes we had alot of bad experiences with car dealers in buying our truck...traveled 2 hours away on FOUR different occasions only to discover issues with each truck that the dealers did not tell us about. (Deal breaker issues such as transmission going out, steering shot, etc.) My husband...

Thanks for the advice so far! We might spring for the 20K hitch but we'll have to see where we are at financially. I was waiting on the number crunching until the dust settled with selling our suburban (and a motorcycle), getting the GMC, switching insurance, selling trailer, among other things...

We are in the process of converting from a TT to a 5th Wheel and have no experience with 5th wheels. The one we are looking at buying is a Keystone Montana Mountaineer, it's about 14k. So we need a 16k hitch, I know that much...but nothing else! We have a GMC 3500 dually with an 8' bed and are...

Here is a little intro. I am a stay at home homeschooling Mom to 4 kids currently ages 9, 6, 3 and 10 months. :o My husband works in the medical field, and I am an RN but chose to put my career on hold for the time being. We started out camping in a tent when our older two kids were babies. Then...
