    Seeking Storage in Prosper, TX

    Looking for any recommendations where one could store a 45’ coach in a climate controlled environment with 30 or 50 amp hookups. NIRVC Lewisville is all full up with a lengthy wait list. Second option would be a covered outdoor spot, but that is less ideal

    FYI Kuat Warranty: MapNerd Tested, MapNerd Approved

    About about 2 weeks ago, we had an unfortunate incident with our Kuat NV2.0 bike rack. I was taking the kids out to do some light trail riding and had my daughter’s, son’s and my bike strapped in, ratcheted down and secured to the bike rack. About 20 minutes into the drive, we suddenly head a...

    FL Keys (all of them)

    I’m in the keys, staying at Fiesta Key RV Resort & Marina. Third time I have stayed here, second time I was here at the same time as a Newmar Rally. Great, affordable little place that is “good enough”. Three great spots to report; Best fish & chips I have ever had. Wonderful bay view...

    Trash Talk

    Show me your trash setup please. Currently, we have the little white 2 quart under sink trash can that Newmar provides but it’s annoying. Any time we need to put something in the trash, we have to open the cabinet under the sink, grab the trash can from under and pull it out, or toss the trash...

    Failed Lippert Steps - a happy ending!

    About 6-8 months ago, we noticed that the powder coating on our Lippert 34-series Kwikee Steps Was beginning to fail on the outer left and right edges of both the upper and lower step. It was very small at the time and I didn’t think much of it, wagering that the steps would probably fail in the...

    Answered Underwater Camera Recommendations

    Headed to the keys next month. We’re planning to go take some scuba classes and get certified all together, then go on a couple of dives. Pictures and video of this would be amazing to have. Does anyone have any recommendations for underwater cameras, or gear that will waterproof an iPhone 11...

    Question Anyone rolling a Pepwave MaxTransit CAT-20 5G?

    If so, can you share your experience? What networks are you using and through which providers? Are there any that didn’t work for you? CAT-20 modems are still pretty new and mostly uncertified, so I hear that in many cases that they are complicated and the connection is unstable. I am...

    MOD Installing a slow-close, bidet toilet seat on Dometic 8700 macerator toilet

    Do you hate the thinly painted, easy to chip, impossible to keep clean, slam down wooden toilet seat that comes on the Dometic 8700 series macerator toilet? ME TOO and I have been on a mission to find something to replace it with since the first day we got our RV. That Dometic would use such a...

    Question Scheduled Service - change and clean ground cables

    Looking at the punch list for the Freightliner XCR scheduled maintenance. Chassis Maintenance | Freightliner Chassis RV Under Electrical, the last item listed is “Change and Clean ground cables” First, I assume these are the ground cables on the chassis battery. Is that correct? Second, if...

    All DP generators on a slideout

    Why doesn’t my Ventana’s generator come out on a slide? I mean, the Ventana and Kountry Star are the ultimate DPs for the DIYer, but accessing the generator behind that pathetic little hood is just a major pain. Put the generators for all DPs on a slide put. KS and VT can get manual slide outs...

    The saga of the 87” theater seats

    So, we have 87” theater seats in place of the three-seat hide-a-bed sofa in our coach. We actually never wanted theater seats but because we wanted cabinets in place of the jack knife sofa, Newmar forced us to get the theater seats in order to reach a 1:1 seating-to-sleeping ratio. I still think...

    Climbed on the roof today to mount my Husky Parsec 7-in-1 antenna as I had been keeping it on the dash since I upgraded to a Pepwave Max Transit Duo. i always get on the roof from the rear of the coach and when I got to the top, on the driver side where the rear faux rail meets the rear cap, I...

    What’s the process for replacing rocker switches?

    Think I am gonna replace my rocker switches with some nicer ones, possible from Contura. The standard switches are kinda poor looking, at least on the Ventana. most rocker switches would be plug and play and I am a bit concerned about the tag dump switch. Has anyone replaced this one? did you...

    2 pumps in less than 2 years?

    After about a year of full timing, we started having issues with our water pump. Basically, the water pump’s positive 12v male spade terminal was compromised and if we hit just the right number of bumps in just the right way, we’d arrive at our destination and the pump wouldn’t turn on. We’d...

    Question RVIA Code for Exhaust?

    Can anyone point me to the RVIA code for where exhaust pipes are allowed? Our oasis exhaust exits under the FWS directly beneath the bunk windows. The result being that whenever the oasis kicks on, exhaust enters the unit through those windows if they are open. At times, the oasis comes up for...

    FYI Positap Connectors make for simple wire taps

    I am terrible at tapping wires. I mean really bad at it. It takes me forever to get a good connection and often, the connection fails in time. I came across a new solution called Positap recently and tried it out when wiring my 12v macerator pump into my fresh water power cord reel. man did...
