    Multi Function Battery Pack/ Jump Starter

    I can vouch for the 20,000 mAh capacity....I had my iPad Pro nearly fully dead (it was down to 5%) and I hooked it up over night on the Audew.  I believe my iPad has a 11,000 mah battery.  When I woke up in the morning the battery was fully charged on the iPad and I had 33% batter remaining in...

    Multi Function Battery Pack/ Jump Starter

    Anybody ever carry around a multi-function battery pack/jump starter? I love this one. It's compact, only weighs 1 lb and very high quality. I use this in my vehicles to keep my phone / tablet charged and it makes a great emergency light that can start that dead battery if needed. Plus, if you...

    Possibly the best upgrade you can make to your RV

    Hi Spencer...not sure how I missed this question.  Sorry about that.  These cheap lugs are found not only on trailers but also on trucks...they look good new but they are a cost cutting move by manufacturers.  Water can get behind un underneath the chrome caps...tough for it to get out once...

    Another Rollover

    My guess is this was caused by the wind.  Looks like that TV and TT drove into a clearing of trees and the wind may have been blowing from the left side of the photo.  Looks like the trailer just slowly rolled onto its side and never made it over on the roof.  Hope they were OK.  Good...

    Possibly the best upgrade you can make to your RV

    I did have the torque wrong on the lugs...that was for my truck.  Sorry about that.  Everyone should check their own torque numbers for their application and vehicle/trailer.  Thank you.

    Cleaning RV Exterior

    This is a great topic. I use this stuff from AMSoil.  It takes about 10-15 minutes if the bugs are heavy on the front of my TT.  It does a nice job of removing the bugs and road debris while giving the TT a nice protective coat of wax that looks great.  Plus these bottles last a long time. ...

    Possibly the best upgrade you can make to your RV

    Hey Guys, A few days ago I went out to check the torque on my lug nuts on my TT.  My socket would barely go over 2 of my lug nuts.  I also had the dreaded chrome capped nuts that look great when new but after a little moisture builds up inside and below freezing temps set in they start to...

    2017 Ford F250 6.7 Diesel Towing 11,500 towing performance.

    Hey Guys, So I wanted to create a video showing how a F250 6.7 Diesel performs while towing a 11,500 lb travel trailer in the summer heat.  The day I had this planned it was 100 degrees outside with heat index reading around 107.  Brutal yet perfect for this test. I have a highway run I have...

    RV Tow Vehicle MPG Challenge

    Hey Guys, So if any of you are like me I drive my truck about 25,000 miles a year for work and then another 10,000 miles towing our Travel Trailer.  My wife and I still work so those 10,000 miles are for occasional week long camping trips and long weekends we do with the kids.  So MPG non...

    Packing Motor Home for Cross Country Trip

    We move items made out of glass that are in the fridge into a couple Tupperware containers.  Helps with rattling, minimizes the chance of breakage and if something does break it?s contained to that piece of Tupperware.

    Advice on Weight Distributing Hitch...do these weights seem right?

    Thank you everyone. I'm going to take some measurements before I hook up the trailer and then after to see what is going on...I really have no idea.  The 4400 unhooked to 3600 hooked to idea on front axle of 4000 lbs example is probably somewhere around what is going on with my trailer...
