Thanks again for the advice.  I do believe my RV is priced right...I've done my calculations on NADA and even had a dealer confirm that it's priced right so I feel ok about that.  I do appreciate the comment regarding Craig's List contacts that promise to sell my RV.  I've had a couple of them...

Thanks for your feedback.  I purchased this 5th Wheel from RV Trader 2 years ago and found it a great place to search and buy.  But I currently have it listed on RV Trader, Craig's List and a number of FB marketplaces and yard sales...but just not getting good hits.  I think financing is an...

Has anyone had success in selling a newer model 5th Wheel on line?  And if yes, what media or websites did you use to get the best traffic?  I've placed an ad on RVTrader.com and had a lot of views but no good inquiries.  I am getting a lot of calls from marketers (if that's what you want to...

Thanks to all for your input.  I've ordered strings today and will venture to make the restringing on my own.  Wish me luck!!! Also...appreciate the YouTube video links...I think I can follow visually more than reading.  Thanks!!!!

Has anyone experienced the cords in the RV window blinds and black out overlay breaking and if so, is there a fix to this?  I have 3 windows in which the cords have broken and the blinds no longer stay open on their own.  I have 'rigged' up hooks that hold them up on sunny days but, short of...

Thanks everyone...all great recommendations.  I like the "Zip It" idea...using flexible plastic in the drain rather than a wire coat hanger.  I'll look for one at Walmart today.  I'll also try to find something that will fit in the shower drain to catch the hair better so to avoid this issue in...

I am a full time RV'er.  I live in a Keystone 5th wheel which is permanently hooked up to a gray tank drainage system.  I have long hair...and it's not uncommon to find potential clogs of hair in the shower drain.  Since I can't reach down into the drain from the shower (it curves at the point...

I'm just now reading through all of the comments regarding bad grey and black tank sensors.  I have the same problem.  Purchased my RV used about 6 weeks ago, it's a 2013 40' Keystone Alpine.  I knew the black was empty but after setting it up on my lot, the sensor read 2/3 full.  Same with...

Yes,  my son's home is in the country and their house was already set up with a separate "gray water" drainage system for their house.  So I dump the RV grey water into that.  Currently we're laying PVC pipe on the ground from the RV and dumping into the gray drainage but if full time RV living...

I found it.  Just as Rene T said I would!!!  I took my little flash light and crawled around under the RV and what do you think I found?  Under the kitchen in the galley behind the drivers' side wheels is a handle just like the grey and black release valves.  It sure was not marked to indicate...

Thanks all.  I'm only 2 weeks into full time RV living so all of this comes new to me.  As I read through the manuals that came with the purchase, I tend to agree with Rene T because I know I have two grey tanks.  But I only have one grey release valve...unless there is another that is somewhat...

Has anyone ever run into this?  I'm new to RV living.  I emptied the grey tanks today so there is nothing in them.  About an hour later, I washed a sink full of dishes.  And the kitchen sink won't drain.  Bathroom sink drains, as does the shower, but not even a plunger helped the kitchen sink to...

Hi everyone!  I'm Vickie, I'm 61 years old and live in North Carolina.  I worked my butt off all of my life and recently asked my boss to take my job and...well you know! That was in September.  I mulled around in my head what I wanted to do with my life if not working 60 hours a week...and...
