What did I do in the last two weeks?
Had the brake line replaced (that is in another thread) took a trip NJ to WV and back. Can't understand why I get under 6MPG heading to WV from NJ and 7.5 coming home, this is not a one time occurrence. I've gassed up in that region on several trips and every time the mileage is better heading home.
Going down to coast from WV.
Today, I weighed the rig, Front, back, left, right and all 4 corners. About 18,500 with full gas tank, 1/4 water and the bins under the drivers side slide empty. I have nearly 3.500 pounds available to a full load, plus the tow. - Jim_NormanExplorerWhat did I do in the last two weeks?

We couldn't find a sun shade that we wanted so my husband made one. We bought some insulation that was double sided foil. It was 4 ft wide and he bought the length we needed for the width of the windshield He used two narrow boards to stablize the ends. drilled a whole in each side and used bungee cords to fasten it to the window frame. Works great. He is a great do-it-your self guy.
Had him for 53 years so I guess it is working out. - koda55ExplorerWhen I waxed my rv I used an orbital polisher from Harbor Freight tools. It came out looking great with no swirl marks.
