Apparently, this guy is really good or really bad at parking his trailer. Check Out This Link! Someone sent me this picture and I thought that I'd share it.

OK folks, here's probably a really stupid question/solution. If you have a coach with an air bag leveling/suspension system, is it possible to (for instance) raise the front of the coach up an maximum heigth and lower the back end down as far as possible at the same time? Then, as you retract...

Saw this movie last Saturday with the wife. We never laughed so hard in our life. True, you can call it a "slap stick" or "spoof" on the RV industry, but, it had everyone rolling in the isle. It is paticularly funny if you're an RV'er. I can't wait for the DVD so I can watch it again.  :D

I lived in Silver City for some 15 years prior to losing my mind and moving to California. This city and the surrounding area is super rich in history. Just to name a few: In the spring, the snow melts from the nearby mountains and darn near floods the down town area. When you get there, you'll...

I'm seriously considering the 3400RL as well. One of the main reasons is that the wife likes to sleep in and I'm an early riser. I can grab a book or newspaper and move to the rear lounge, close the doors and give her a little peace and quiet. However, this thread has really made me think about...

I don't believe that I said that you only needed one of them. As far as looking ugly, they can be painted the same color as your rig. But, the bottom line is improving your MPG.

Phew! I finally found it. Check out this link about AirTabls http://www.airtab.com/ By the way, you don't just use one. You may be using 50-100 depending on your application. There's a pretty cool video on that web site that shows exactly how they operate and perform. Ya thought I was nuts, huh?

I have unsuccessfully searched for about an hour for what I'm about to describe. This thing that I'm talking about is an "air disruptor". It's plastic, about 4" square with specific molding on it. It is normally used on the trailers for big rigs. The purpose is to disrupt and defuse the air that...

Bill, Now that's interesting. I'm planning on getting an automatic transmission. And, since the truck is rated at towing that much weight, I would certainly believe that Dodge would be directly responsible for the full cost and installation of the brake. Do you have any legal reference to this...

Bill, My wife and I are waiting until spring to get our rig and 5er. It just so happens that we've planned to get the same truck and 5er that you have! The only expection is that I plan to get the long bed and dual rear wheels. I was excited to hear the mileage that you're getting. On the other...
