What did you do to your Toy Hauler today???

Finished my gas grill conversion so it will run off my quick connect! Woo Hoo!

Sounds like a good excuse to get one of these GasLocks:

Opened the door and searched for an aluminum pan, i was smokin a 3lb tritip in the backyard. Once i opened the hauler door i looked around, just checking.....Everything looked ok.

Our awning looks sad, it needs to be replaced. Need new tires too. O yea i forgot, i somehow left the large butterfly nut off the propane tanks when i refilled them last, so i lost that. It rolled off the genny cab, where i put them when i replace the empty tanks.

Good news, the bracket bar thing that joins and holds the tanks down somehow stayed on top of genny cab, butterfly nut fell off.

I installed a Hawkshead TPMS system. I also tapped into the propane line with a tee, shutoff valve and quick connect fitting for my outdoor propane grill.

Removed the duct tape that was poorly applied at the floor fridge vent opening and re-duct taped and then measured and cut stainless screen to cover opening. One less entry point for critters. In this case, LARGE critters.

I'm added the latest version of GirlFriend.exe to my Toyhauler and I've been having some problems lately. I've been running the same version of MS Internet Explorer forever as my primary application to connect to your site, and all the GirlFriend releases I've tried have always conflicted with it. I hear that MSIE won't crash if GirlFriend is run in background mode and the sound is turned off. But I'm embarrassed to say I can't find the switch to turn the sound off. I just run them separately, and it works okay.

Girlfriend also seems to have a problem co-existing with my R/C Simulator program, often trying to abort R/C Simulator with some sort of timing incompatibility. I probably should have stayed with GirlFriend 1.0, but I thought I might see better performance from GirlFriend 2.0. After months of conflicts and other problems, I consulted a friend who has had experience with GirlFriend 2.0. He said I probably didn't have enough cache to run GirlFriend 2.0, and eventually it would require a Token Ring to run properly. He was right - as soon as I purged my cache, it uninstalled itself.

Shortly after that, I installed GirlFriend 3.0 beta. All the bugs were supposed to be gone, but the first time I used it, it gave me a virus anyway. I had to clean out my whole system and shut down for a while. I very cautiously upgraded to GirlFriend 4.0. This time I used a SCSI probe first and also installed a virus protection program. It worked okay for a while until I discovered that GirlFriend 1.0 was still in my system. I tried running GirlFriend 1.0 again with GirlFriend 4.0 still installed, but GirlFriend 4.0 has a feature I didn't know about that automatically senses the presence of any other version of GirlFriend and communicates with it in some way, which results in the immediate removal of both versions. The version I have now works pretty well, but there are still some problems. Like all versions of GirlFriend, it is written in some obscure language I can't understand, much less reprogram.

Frankly I think there is too much attention paid to the look and feel rather than the desired functionality.

Also, to get the best connections with your hardware, you usually have to use gold-plated contacts. And I've never liked how GirlFriend is totally "object-oriented." A year ago, a friend of mine upgraded his version of GirlFriend to GirlFriendPlus 1.0, which is a Terminate and Stay Resident version of GirlFriend. He discovered that GirlFriendPlus 1.0 expires within a year if you don't upgrade to Fiancee 1.0. So he did, but soon after that, he had to upgrade to Wife 1.0, which he describes as a huge resource hog. It has taken up all his space, so he can't load anything else. One of the primary reasons he decided to go with Wife 1.0 was because it came bundled with FreeSexPlus. Well, it turns out the resource allocation module of Wife 1.0 sometimes prohibits access to FreeSexPlus, particularly the new Plug-Ins he wanted to try. On top of that, Wife 1.0 must be running on a well warmed-up system before he can do anything. Although he did not ask for it, Wife 1.0 came with MotherInLaw which has an automatic pop-up feature he can't turn off. I told him to try installing Mistress 1.0, but he said he heard if you try to run it without first uninstalling Wife 1.0, Wife 1.0 will delete MSMoney files before doing the uninstall itself. Then Mistress 1.0 won't install anyway because of insufficient resources.

I will have to check on newer releases-Will keep you posted.

Once upon a time, long ago....There was 1 RV God, Howie.
This man invented this site, almost...He scribbled it out on a napkin, at a bar we all frequented. I was there when it was invented, ya..Im that connected.

I enjoy being the Historian for this site, cause i remember everything, as long as i was there, or even close by cause someone in the group would tell me about it and i just connect the dots, like a crossword puzzle. But i swear, we....
