This is always a fun thread to watch in other forums, so I thought I'd start one here.

Last week, I bought a Mr. Heater Big Buddy for girlfriend's Class C. We used it Saturday as we stayed over night via a Halloween party. Yes, we had both air vents cracked etc. ๐Ÿ™‚ It did a great job.

Retired the 30ft-30Amp shore power cord today - After 11 yrs of faithful service.
Replacement cord came from Amazon.com. They have the best price.

Today my Itasca 31C came out of the warehouse that it has been sitting in since early June of 2014. I bought it (it needed a total cabover rebuild) and had it towed to the warehouse, almost seventeen months ago. I drove it for the first time and was quite pleased with how smooth and quiet it was at speeds up to 75MPH. Now I just have to sell it. :B

Was ready to head to the hills for some stealhead fishing last week and the refer started freezing everything in the lower compartment.Okay,new thermistor right,well it semi worked but propane would not ignite then and it did before..Okay,new board..Yay,Everything works better than before now but what a pain and delay it was and especially in cooler weather where the refer is less than cooperative.

This was a good learning experience having only replaced a cooling unit in the past.

Not today, but recently (2007 Itasca Navion 23H):

1. Installed molly bolts - extra short ones because of clearance issues in the wall cavity - for more substantial anchoring of the thermostat to the wall. The existing sheet metal screws in 1/8" plywood had blown out the holes, and the thermostat kind of wiggled every time we moved any of its controls.

2. Added pad eyes at the back edge of the "grandchildren's bed" over the cab, to anchor a cargo net, since we use this bed as storage (don't know what we'll do with all that stuff if we ever get grandchildren).

3. Installed an exhaust hanger on the generator tailpipe, which was hanging out there unsupported over its entire length, just aching to vibrate loose and fall off.

Did the pink stuff thing, filled up with fuel along with Sta-bil, ran the generator. Winter is coming - depressing.

Just got back from a trip after installing a rear Hellwig sway bar and WOW what a difference. A lot of it was on a 70mph two lane highway with lots of trucks. Big rigs no longer upset the chassis when coming the opposite way and just a slight push when they are passing me from the rear. So, I just ordered a Hellwig front sway bar to help even things out. Soooo impressed with just the rear I am giddy........lol.

Klutchdust, I have ordered the anti-skid mat to replace on my MH. Question....did you remove the sticky residue before installing the new mat? I should be getting my part in the next couple of days and will be doing the replacing.


Well, when I got the coach the existing non-skid was removing itself a little at a time. I pulled it off, cleaned the area with acetone. If the adhesive is clean and still

tacky i see no reason to remove it . Mine was mostly gone already and some of it had dirt in it.
Thanks for the reply. Most of mine will still be tacky, so that is good. The part that is gone I will do as you did and clean it with acetone. I am thinking of using a wallpaper roller to be sure it is pressed down good. Thanks again for the reply and safe travels to you.

1. Replaced the OEM 19" Jensen TV with 28" Vizio LED/LCD TV. The original equipment Jensen LCD was all housing-and not much picture. It drew 60 watts, the new one rated at 20 watts.

2. Changed oil in Onan generator.
