    Oil changes

    I change all our vehicles oil on the 5,000 mile mark and use Mobil 1. Our Tiffin has the Ford F-53 chassis with 130,000 miles on it and does not use any oil between changes. I use the Ford filters on the motor home.

    Onan 5500 start problem at 16 F (feels like 6 F)

    My thinking is if it didn't fire using starting fluid it is a spark problem.

    Replacement TV antenna

    I just installed the King omnidirectional on our Tiffin 35 QBA. It worked much better than the previous omnidirectional that was damaged. I am basing that on using it in the same location, which was in upstate NY.

    Love’s won’t repair a truck tire
