I didn't.  I wish I had because I ended up spending a an xtra few thousand, plus the time to figure out what was wrong; where to find part; and how to fix it.  When I looked at the rig, it was hooked up to shore line, and it worked fine.  But later I found out there were problems with the...

I came down with something that kept me from this task for a week.  I got up there today and realized that I have a Fantastic Fan.  Which means a different dome.  Camping world has one and it looks easy enough to install.  Waiting for them to open to see if they have it in stock in San...

Thanks for all the replies.  It is the vent dome in the middle of the rear.  I realized yesterday that my container is 8+ feet high.  I plan on backing my Rv up to the container, and see, If I can't use some plywood to make a bridge from the container roof to the edge of the vent dome.  My other...

At the same time, I have enjoyed the process.  It has been a learning experience, and one that I wish to continue on.  The first time we do something, its a learning experience.  My goal was to go on one big trip that took me through the West- MT WY CO, NM , then sell it for a loss because I...

Criagslist.  There are plenty of deals to be found and huge variety.  However, let the buyer beware.

It already cracked into pieces.  Only one piece is attached to the up and down arm.  I guess I need to find an 8 foot ladder. 

SO my rear vent doom cracked last week, and I looked on line and it looks like you need to get on the roof.  My RV is a non-walkable roof or whatever.  The only way I can imagine accessing the roof is in a shop with scaffolds.  I also have those maxi air covers over the dome.  What to do?

I'm in your boat, and I have spent close to $4,000 on top of the $11,000 for the coach.  I was thinking I was going to get away with just some new tires, but the guy lied to me about many things.  (I was ignorant and he had everything hooked up to his house power, but it struggled on it own and...

I did it! And just came back from a 1200 mile plus trip.  It held up to speeds of 75 mph.  I would like to have a real window put in, but its expensive and time consuming.  If I had my way I would just fill it in with bondo or something.  What is the point of these windows anyway? Fire escape? ...

I think too old means no overdrive or fuel injection.  But that's me.

I have seen various models at RV dealers, and on Craigslist.  Might be best to look around the area you plan on having it.  I would find it hard to believe that you could not find a similar model in So Cal, or even in Nor cal.

Don't know where you're relocated but Jurupa Valley / Mir Loma has a good generator mechanic who works out of his house. 

The DIY are already building Tesla walls. http://www.cryptogon.com/?p=49379  I am looking into doing something myself right now with the lithium batteries I have, but the main factor is cost.  The components are not cheap, and would cost just as much to put in your home as would an RV.  I can...

I have some E-bike batteries laying around and I was wondering if could hook them up to some kind of power inverter, and run my TV coffee maker or what-ever without having to turn on the generator.  THis would be to supplement my house SLAs.

Pay someone to inspect it.  I fell in love and just decided to go for it.  I feel I would have saved a few thousand dollars.
