    Broken Track Sliding Bedroom Door

    The track on the bottom of our bedroom sliding door broke where almost impossible to open and close. Newmar said it was part of the door and I would have to replace the door. I took the door off the top sliders and found that the tracks are hard plastic and were able to pry them out of the...

    First Time I Got Skunked

    I'm in Davenport Fl and the best cell speed rating I can get is 0.7 on T-Mobile, AT&T, and Verizon. AT&T I'm getting 4 bars and 5G and T-Mobile I get 3 bars and 5G. I just placed an order for Starlink and then talked to a guy in the campgrounds and he says he can 5 on speed test and dead...

    Driving while using propane heaters

    Looks like we going to have to move about 250 miles to a different campground and it's 21 degrees out. Can you run the PROPANE heaters while traveling to keep the basement warm so pipes don't freeze?

    When to use a Block Heater.

    We are leaving for Florida on the 21st of Dec and the 10-day forecast says it will be around 7 degrees when we are ready to leave in the morning of the 21st. We are going to have electric heaters inside the coach to keep the interior above freezing and we plugged it into a 50 amp connection...

    Pepwave - Band Locking

    I was just watching the MobileMustHaves video and they were talking about band locking to improve cell performance with a Pepwave router. I have been struggling with Verizon for months at my home location getting less the 4 on the speed test and sometimes not even getting as high as 1. I check...

    High Tech Hotpot Holder

    I went high-tech and purchase the device below to mount my M2000 hotspot to the window. I can't take credit for it because I saw being used by someone else. Had to do a small mod on the bottom to get my cable through the slot but it works great and allows me to find the best window to place my...

    Snake Oil or Useful - AirTabs

    I saw these mentioned on several forums and with people saying they stabilize the coach in windy conditions. Has any used these? I also own a Class C 2006 Winnebago Aspect 29H on Ford 450 chassis that my son uses. https://www.airtab.com/application-rv.htm

    16TB SSD External HD

    I can't believe how far storage has come over the years. When I first open my computer store in 1987 I run an ad say "Upgrade your RAM from 512K to 640K for only 99.99 and add a 20Meg Harddrive for only 599.99 and my margins were about 5% just trying to get my name out there. Now a Solid...

    Blackstone Grill

    I am probably in the minority but I bought into the hype of the Blackstone Grill and I found that isn't much difference between the Blackstone grill and using a hot plate or electric grill. I missed the flavor of a pellet grill or the taste of cooking on the propane. Another thing I like is...

    I used a speed test on my TV and it was averaging in the 80 to the low 90Mbps range. I check my home tiv on cable connect using eithernet and found that it was getting 156 Mbps and my coach TV on the same network was only get 80 to 90 Mbps with a wired connection. I added a USB to Ethernet...

    If I Was Only Younger

    There is really no good place to post this. I'm a small business person and always looking for new ideas for businesses. I think you could become a millionaire if you started a chain of charging stations for EV and along with a coffee shop, donuts, and fancy sandwiches. Give the EV owner...

    Uni 19-State Portable Toll Pass

    We are planning on going to Flordia and then maybe up the east coast and looking at the tolls. Is this the best solution or is there a better one? I understand we can put couple plates in the app and switch between our coach and jeep. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09QRMKJ6R/?tag=rvf01-20

    Apple Air Tags

    I was think of purchasing a couple Air Tags and put one on my wife's keys. I thought a great idea would be to put one in the Jeep so we go to unfamiliar areas we can use it find the Jeep. Then I found they don't use WIFI but only Bluetooth 5 which has a max range of 800 feet if you have clear...

    Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon 4XE Hybird

    We did our research on buying a Jeep Rubicon 4XE Hybrid electric/gas motor vehicle this is what we concluded and why we didn’t. My thoughts were a Hybrid that would get around 100 miles per charge would make perfect sense but a full battery-powered car doesn’t make sense to me. A few years ago...

    Class A Storage and Tires.

    I drove up to the Lincon Nebraska FMCA rally and talked to the Michelin tire booth about the storage of my Class A. I store indoors on the cement floor and he said to use plastic or cardboard between the tires and the cement. I asked about wood or horse mats from Tractor Supply. He stated that...

    Pepwave Antenna

    Now I need an outside roof mount antenna for my Newmar Ventana and my Pepwave BR1 5G. I have researched several but after climbing on the roof I don't think I can get a straight shot through the roof and into my media cabinet over the driver's seat. I planning on using the same entrance that...

    Question Surge Protectors Loosing Ability to Protect.

    I was talking with a gentleman about surge protectors and seem to know what he was talking about. He said when surge protection takes small hits they lose its ability to provide protection. He also said that surge protectors should be replaced every few years. I never heard of that and have...
