    Carrying a pistol

    We race oval snowmobiles, and that sometimes takes us to Canada, yes they are very strick, never carried a pistol on those travels, you even had to tell them how much American gas you had, plus toolboxes etc. I was wondering if you could put a pistol, clip out, into a lockbox beside your bed...

    Carrying a pistol

    When rving across the usa, can you carry a legal pistol in your 5th wheeler, note, I don't have a concealed pistol permit.  I guess what I'm asking, and I believe you 5th wheel is your second home, can you have a pistol inside you wheeler? Or might parks not allow them in, if they know you have one.

    Time to Heat up

    I took a indoor/outdoor thermometer in inside the trailer, it was the same as the outside temp, which was 34. I'm not too sure as to how many in's of insulation, but would assume, built for the Michigan weather, the dealer said the tanks were in where the heat could get to them somewhat. Just...

    Time to Heat up

    I have a 37' sandpiper 5th wheel. I was wondering if my furnance was putting out enough heat. Today it was 34 degrees out, and I set the thermostat to 60 degrees to see how long it would take to reach 60 degrees. Well one hour and 10 minutes later it at 54 degrees, seems like it should heat up...

    Nite time generator

    Was wondering if you have to use the generator all night, if your just using the furnace, will the battery last that long. This would be for winter camping, like 15-30 degree nights. Thanks
