    Storage of Outside TV

    Thank you much for the insight.  I anticipated putting the TV on a table outside but like the idea of hanging it from the sidewall.  The problem I have is transporting a TV as I believe you are supposed to keep them upright to keep them from breaking.  Thanks again for your input.

    Storage of Outside TV

    Our RV did not come with an outside TV or outside storage compartment for a TV.  We have decided to get a dish installed so that we can watch football without inhibiting our travel plans.  We would also like to have a TV that can be set up for outdoor viewing, but question where it would be...

    Water Pouring Out

    Honestly, I don't know if I have a low point drain.  In looking around, I did not see a valve that would shut it down, but a second look could not hurt.

    Water Pouring Out

    Went to put water in the holding tank and it immediately came pouring out a pipe on the bottom of our coach.  Not sure if the pipe is supposed to be capped, if it is an outlet in the event a tank breaks or something else.  Checked the manual and searched the Interweb, with no answer.  Tried...

    RV mattress

    We had a Sleep Number put in our RV.  I personally like it better than the mattress we have in our house.

    My Compliments to Fleetwood

    When my wife and I first purchased our new motorhome, we had/have many significant issues.  After going round and round with the dealer (and being blamed for many of the problems), we dialed direct to Fleetwood.  At first, it was a difficult start.  However, once we got them to take action, they...

    An Australian in Colorado in an RV in August

    If you have time, I would recommend venturing in to Colorado Springs and taking a ride up Pikes Peak.  They won't allow your RV, but you can either take your Toad, rent a car or use the Cog Railway out of Manitou Springs.  On a clear day you can see forever.

    Mecca, did you ever reach any resolution on these many issues?  Has Entegra and Spartan gotten things worked out?  Our best to you.

    Onan 5500 on Fleetwood Terra 31TS

    During our hot summer days, our Onan 5500 will not run while the engine is running.  I presume it is vapor locking.  The generator is mounted up front adjacent to the engine which likely leads to excess heat.  Does anyone have suggestions on how to keep the generator cool and running?  The Coach...

    New GPS - Love It

    They also make the 760LMT which is designed for RV'ers.  A bit more expensive but far better than the Camping World Rand McNally GPS.

    RV STORAGE NEVADA

    We have ours at the same place, however, the name has been changed to Storage One.  Spaces are covered and there is a gate for controlled access. However, there are no plug ins to keep your coach charged. Happy to answer any other questions you may have.

    Gary, you are always a great source of information.  As always, thank you for your input.

    Next motorhome gas or diesel?

    Our Ford V10 pulls a 2014 Jeep Unlimited pretty well.  You do notice much more get up and go when not towing, but it does well.  That is until you get going up a big hill.  I don't like the transmission to drop in to low as it uses too much fuel and is likely harder on the engine. The DPs fly on...

    Do Solar Panels Create Energy from Fluorescent Light

    Thanks.  What about while in the shade, do the panels work or do they need direct light?  I realize that direct light would be far better.

    Do Solar Panels Create Energy from Fluorescent Light

    Because it is at a storage facility.  While there are lights, there are no plugs.  Thus far, I have been unable to find a storage facility that offers electricity.  We cannot store it at home.
