    Daughter’s entry into the rv world

    My daughter and her husband have decided to enter the rv owners family. I really like their new Brinkley 5th wheel. The F250 matches up well.

    Thoughts on Harvest Hosts

    I do all the trip planning, reservations, etc for our trips. Jerry does the driving, and all the hard work of maintaining our Dutch Star. I know there has been a bit of discussion on this subject, but hoping for more. We have paid for this for a couple of years, but have not used it once. I...

    HWH Active Air knowledgeable tech/shop on the West Coast

    I have a minor but irritating problem with the AA system on my 2017DS. I’ve had discussions with HWH but they can’t seem to help me over the phone. Does anyone know of a knowledgeable tech or service facility here on the West Coast for the AA system? I live in the SF Bay Area and am willing to...

    Best bath towels to use in coach washer/dryer

    I would appreciate advice. I recently replaced my old bath towels with some nice Cariloha bamboo towels. However, even when I wash just one at a time, mixed with some smaller items, they really cause the coach to rock more than I like. Anyone have towels they like that are comfy, but are easier...

    Not sure why

    Everyone has their own view on beauty. However, I’m not sure I could do this to my Dutch Star:

    MCD Shades support

    Just wanted to give a shoutout to MCD customer service, specifically Kandice. I have been trying for days to get one of my automated shades to respond correctly or even respond at all to my remote using the MCD manual: https://mcdinnovations.com/files/Ownersmanual031318.pdf Admittedly, I had...

    Oasis settings while in storage

    When I am not going to use my coach for week or longer I have been shutting off the Oasis unit at the control panel on the front of the unit. Is this a good practice? I can find nothing in the Oasis manuals one way or the other. Just curious. I’m in an area that does not freeze in the winter so...

    Poor water pressure in shower, wife not very happy.

    This morning, the first day of a month long adventure, the DW stepped out of the shower very unhappy with the water pressure. While trying the valve I noticed that there was good pressure on the hot side and almost no water coming out when turned to the cold side. When trying to mix the two the...

    Ever get those floors all heating?

    Using floor heat with all slides in

    I’m sitting in Coburg Oregon having a new windshield installed. I’m going to be staying in the coach but the installer wants all slides to stay in overnight. Since it will possibly be in the 30’s tonight I would like to have the floor heat on but am concerned with the slides covering much of the...

    Do you love where you live (politics excluded please)

    There are some things that you just can’t beat about Northern California. The weather is amazing! Today it’s 68, sunny, with humidity at about 50 percent….perfect! We have damaging earthquakes (about every 50 years) but no snow, hurricanes, tornados or ice storms. I hope you like where you live...

    Adding Solar

    I have been thinking about adding a small amount of solar to our Dutch Star. On our recent trip, we met up with friends who also were traveling in their Dutch Star. They had experienced a minor problem that required the coach to be left for repair for a couple of days. They were not able to...

    Servicing interval for the Oasis

    I was talking to a fellow Dutch Star owner yesterday and the service interval for the Oasis came up. He said it was recommended by a tech that he get his Oasis serviced annually and yet he could not find that statement in any of the Oasis manuals. So, I went through all 60 pages of the...

    Newmar slide activation idiosyncrasies

    There have been several threads on different rv forums discussing the importance of running the engine while operating the slides to give you optimum voltage for the slide motors. This made sense to me so I decide to use this procedure when operating my slides. Well……Newmar has some weird stuff...
