    Repossession Best Option?

    I( find it hard to believe that you can even get a 20 year loan term for a $22,000 purchase........5 year loan sounds about right

    Year Round Travel Trailer in RV Park ?? Help Please

    Depending on where the trailer is, I think you are asking for trouble. If cold enough, the pipes will still freeze even if the heat is left on. Heat rises and wont get under the floors where the pipes are.......Plus, any snow/ice on the roof is going to melt causing all kinds of...

    Winterizing only with compressed air

    My current trailer is easy to pump the pink in, but my former one wasnt. What I would do is blow out all the lines and then add some pink into the city water inlet....I would then blow the lines again. I figure if any water was left there to settle to low spots, better it have some pink stuff in it.

    TRANSMISSION SNAFU

    He said engine battery....not engine. That said, I would be interested to hear what the problem was too...Cant see the battery doing this, especially if it still had enough juice to start engine.

    where do I rent a truck to tow a fifth wheel ?

    It seems puzzling to me why you would buy a 5th wheel trailer and not have a truck to tow it?..I assume you are going to park it seasonally somewhere. I think your only hope other than a commercial mover is to borrow a truck from a friend or advertise to rent one....I dont think you will get...

    Will my truck camper fit?

    I assume you are talking about a cap, not a truck camper? Either way, I think he should get the right size....wasted space and it would look weird

    My Allison transmission is running hot at stop lights

    Probably wouldnt hurt to add an electric fan to the external cooler that can come on when needed

    1975 fleury

    Just to add........Some people like to take older things and fix them up. The OP may be one of these people, so more power to him. I am sure he doesnt plan on driving it until things are fixed up. That said, I would be concerned about getting the paperwork fixed up before sinking any time or...

    Trying to follow advice

    Some of us are handy around vehicles/RVs etc, some are not. I can tell by MoparMans posts and screen name that he is a car guy (although his choice of brand sucks.....lol)....I am pretty handy too, being a car guy my whole life. I am 63 and can still change a tire on pretty much anything...

    Fleetwood Santa Fe electric problem.

    Huh???? When you plug your trailer into a campground or house plug, it is 110 volt....It is also AC not DC That said, your lights and furnace fan run on 12 volt DC, so I would suspect that your battery is dead.....However, when plugged in, your power converter should supply that 12 volts
