    Gray website drive me nuts.

    The changes should be for the whole format. Much like changing your preferences on Windows. If a particular web site is a problem, it won't correct that page separately. :-\

    Oh,you didn't write that where she can read it???? You had better run out and get you "I'm sorry stuff" right now. :-\

    Location of House Battery

    Creatively hidden? That seems to be the rule rather than the exception. Two things that may help. Look for a vent that seems out of place. I found my batteries by noticing a four inch round vent over the generator. Looked inside the generator space. Measured the height inside then out. Two...

    Gray website drive me nuts.

    If you are not familiar with the controls for FireFox, I can see the problem. At the top of the page, cl9ick on Tools, drop down to Options, Then Content at top and don that page to Fonts and Colors. Play with the choices until you get something that you like. I have a hard time with the...

    30 Amp Trailer vs 50 Amp

    Thinking outside the box, why install another unit? There are some really good portable units available that could be used anywhere in your rig you need extra cooling. I am aware of two units that are about 18 amps and very quiet. You can also think about  one of the evaporative types if you are...

    There's a retail store I sometimes visit that has a Senior Discount. The secret is, you have to ask.They all think it's insulting to offer it to anyone :-\. So when I check out I say "That's the geezer price right?" :D  Works every time and no one else knows.

    Renting out your RV

    Firehog, not a good idea. I think you will find the costs are way too high for the amount you would realize in rental. Remember you are renting a twenty year old rig. And you are not renting a classic/special interest rig. A 50's vintage original Airstream might command a premium price, but you...

    Quarry Exhibit Hall in Utah

    Trailer Traveler said it all. May be the best combined set of displays and museums in the World dedicated to fossils and pre-history.  I would plan on spending more than one day.

    Who's keeping an older MH on the road??

    I think I would look for another agent. Foremost is a Farmer's Insurance subsidiary. I have insured my business building with them for several years. I just got a shocker quote for my Class C that was almost too good to be real. The insurance for liability is one third the price for the same...

    Using pond water to fill fresh water tank???

    Regardless of what you eventually do, you should have the water tested. In many states the testing is free, or nominal cost at worst from the state water quality control agency. There are things that may be in the water that are not a problem until you have extended exposure to them. It is best...

    More acronyms

    To the original poster: On behalf of this collection of ingrates, I will apologize for our irreverence in hi-jacking your thread. We are not poking fun at you, but ourselves. I for one will admit I have stared at the keyboard and screen for minutes drinking a couple cups of coffee and wondering...

    Covering up Screw Holes--Side of Dash

    If it's really driving you nuts >:(, find an upholstry supply house. They have patch kits for doing vinyl/leather repairs. A little technical, but with a good color eye, you can make the sirius seriously disappear.

    Home Bound, tied and chained....

    Here's another good thing. At least you are not treating for lice on the road, and you can quarantine the RV so you don't have to de-louse (???) it.

    Exhaust Smell

    I agree with some of the posters. Check the complete exhaust system. I have an older ford van that has a leak at or near the manifold that has evaded detection for three years. Sometimes it gets real stuffy. I have gotten into the habit of driving with the window open an inch when in city...
