I hope I can help.  I will respond to as much as I can. Brake:  First thing you need to do is check your Durango manual or dealer.  I never had one but my Ford with towing package had a plug under the dash.  I see a cable for Dodge on Amazon for $10.13 and a series of controllers ranging from...

Yes I am familiar with the variances you all mentioned but in my past experience we are talking about maybe a 1/2-1 mpg differences.  I was really expecting to be nearer to the 8 mark than the 4 mark.  I was a tad surprised to a $1.75 gas bill per mile.  Oddly enough since it was a round trip I...

I recently bought this 1994 Four Winds w/ 93 Ford E 350 Class C.  Loving my almost antique Motor Home, it really fits every need I have.  Yes it has some issues that I will fix over time but it is a really solid unit.  Not nearly as many surprises as that Class A I bought first and I am happy to...

Thanks all, I found info on the Cruise Control and it turned out that the vehicle has set still long enough the the contact rings within the steering column had corrosion on them.  After making several turns they polished themselves and CC works great

Having a problem finding a route for the video camera wire as well as getting power to the camera.  The instructions with the camera say to mount it on the license plate but that is rather high being part of the driver side tail light.  This would definitely make the backup less useful to me. ...

Just wanted to let folks know that there is a spray made by CRC Inc. for testing your smoke/fire alarms.  It sprays a mist that simulates smoke in front of the alarm.  I know Staples sells it and I am sure other stores sell it as well.

Looking for the FORD literature on the E 350 chassis which would help me see where the cruise control problem is.  I have tried all of the FORD choices on the net and none are available through Ford, Ebay or Amazon, they all only go back to 96.  Obviously a PDF format would be best but will take...

My issue is that I sold a really nice camper for this c class as my arthritis is getting so bad that I doubt if I could get much more done than a couple of square yards a day.  I may have to bribe my  14 year old grand son to do the job.  And it sure isn't getting done with this full sun, no...

I bought a gallon to use on my 94 Damon which is a gel coat, then decided to sell it and get a c instead which is the unit that got me wondering.  I may just have to try a hidden spot and see how it looks.  I was really impressed with some of the You Tube vids on this for gel coat, have to see...

Thanks to both of you.  I totally agree that it appears to be paint on metal.  I have a whole bunch of rubbing to do I guess.  Will look for a polish/cleaner with a tired old man in mind.

I recently bought a really well maintained Four Winds 28A Class C Motor Home.  Very low mileage, stored inside, never saw winter roads, etc.  It's main function was to take the owner to a couple of NASCAR tracks every year.  The one thing I cannot find out (I am sure there will be others after I...

Everywhere I have traveled the only requirement for campers is that the LP bottle must be turned off.  Some places have a pull off so you can turn them off and back on.  If your like me, your refrigerator runs AC or LP and that is about the only thing that should be on, and that is questionable...

I just sold a terrific TT made by KZ (now owned by THOR) that would have been perfect.  It did have a single axle but it was much lighter than the numbers you shared.  It had a queen front, dinette that was a slideout and made into a double bed and 2 bunk beds, full bath and nice kitchen.  I...

Hi Camperguy and almost neighbor.  Sorry your health is tanking on you at such a young age.  I notice we went in opposite directions for apparently the same reason, health.  I loved my travel trailer, it was really a nice unit but the hooking up was killing me.  Had to rest after hooking up and...

Hi, my real name is Dave, not Clown.  I was a clown and actually performed in several circuses but all of that is waaay behind me.  I have been a camper for several years and have owned many trailers but I have now entered the world of RVs.  I just purchased a well maintained 1994 Damon...
