Everyone has there views on pets and RVing and pets in general and theres nothing wrong with that, however my Grandfather told me " never trust anyone who dosent like dogs" , I am 50 now and so far he has been right !!! Pets whether it is a dog or cat love unconditionaly, and provide a great...

Ed , you got the high end fancy smancy model...lol. Mine doesnt have wings...Scott

He will adapt, but you need to make it fun for him. Go to Petco and get him a comfy little dog bed, maybe his favorite blanket,then set it between the two seats, maybe a few toys and treats . You have to realize that even for us , walking around a moving motorhome is a little shakey. You might...

After having several different brands , by far our Weber Baby Q 100 is the best one we have had. It cooks evenly, its small enough, built well, easy to clean, and is reasonably priced. I did add a Thermometer  to ours. I must feel the same as many others, when we go camping we see a lot of them...

I am currently looking at the Boliy 3600, it looks good on paper, they will run a 15000 A/C, constant 3000 watts, electric start, weighs 78lbs,will fit under the bed rails of your truck, has an ECO mode, runs at 56 to 59db, and they are around 1050.00. They have been out for a few years, and are...

If you want to get up into the mountains, got to Julian , not much farther is Lake Quymaca, really pretty this time of year, and only about an hour and a half from you. Not far , but far enough to make you feel like your out of town. A little further , you could go to Bishop, about 4 hours north...

I couldn't read my Doran with polarized glasses on, made the screen look like a rainbow...it too was very critical as far as angle. I think it is the digital display , they will all have that problem. The trick is to mount it in a spot that allows you to see it at a glance, and at a good...

One of the best thing I added to my trailer was an Surflo Accumulator tank. Its a 2 gallon stainless steel tank that is pre charged, and it gives constant water pressure without any surge. It allows you to use the sink or toilet without the pump kicking on constantly. I also added the Extreme...

Rick , Pressure Pro was the innovator and for a while Doran just had there name on the same product , however a couple of years ago Doran came out with the 360 which is there own system.If yours is called a 360 it is the newer unit, and I would guess that your sensor is bad , and not a battery...

Ned ,your right and I have seen plenty of torn up rigs and I dont want to be one of them. I just like the idea of being able to change out the batteries without sending them back. I suppose I would do well to buy the system with the fewest problems and that appears to be the Pressure Pro. Thanks...

Bernie, its still a chunk . I guess a fella needs to factor in his age as well, I am 50 , so lets say I travel for another 20 years, replacing those sensors every 5 years.....yikes my math says 1200.00 at 30 ea, and thats if they stay 30 , inflation may make them 40 or 50 by then....LOL ok ok I...

Bruce , I dont believe the 510 monitor is wireless, it has a permanent 12 volt cord. I wish they made there monitors a little larger. TST seems to have a good reputation for customer service , it just looks like they are having to workn out some of the bugs in there new system. Have a good...

Bruce, I know what you are saying, numbers wise its almost a wash, however the monitor on the 507 can be used wireless,and since I take mine in and out between trips , it is a plus to have the 507 monitor. Ned has what I feel is the best set up with the pressure pro. The down side for the PP for...

Ned , on the tpms I just returned , I used a little Teflon Tape on the valve stems. Would the tape work on the Aluminum stems ? I did it to ensure that they wouldnt come loose, I had regular rubber stems ( brass heads ) on the truck , and aluminum stems on the trailer, thankfully I never had a...

There is a new system that has replacable batterys, its the TST 507 . They say the battery life is up to 1 year and the batterys are only a couple dollars . The 1 year estimate is based on full time use . I plan on buying one of these in Quartszite this year at the annual RV show. Several have...
