Hot water tank
Got really cold where we are staying and was told to leave hot water tank on(electric) to keep tank from freezing. Is this a normal way and will the tank over heat leaving it on. I notice the pressure relief valve drips after left on for a long period. Thanks for any help.1.7KViews0likes5CommentsRe: Thor ACE

Inspect your purchase, cross your fingers, and.move forward. I have met 3 other new ACE owners since we bought ours 6 months ago with bad news about theirs. I will say where I take mine to get repairs all the service tech tells me is so many Thor coaches are getting repaired! They are so far behind. So it's not just one example. Glad to hear you are not having troubles. I just retired and expect to be traveling in our NEW Thor ACE. Kind of upset and stressed!574Views0likes0CommentsRe: Thor ACE

They stopped the leak in bedroom but have not stopped the leak in front. I have to let them try for the 3rd/4th time before I can move forward with the Lemon law. By then our coach's value will drop from water damage. Thanks for asking!574Views0likes0CommentsRe: Thor ACE
To the response from lryrob9301, I did say I read the Florida rv Lemon Law. I know about "Living Facilities". If the problem as a ROOF LEAK is taken down the VALUE of the coach it will stand for the Lemon Law. Thanks for your ideas and thoughts! Like I said I will NOT take a loss from a JUNK building company!!! I will keep all my RV family up to date on this issue. Maybe it might wake up THOR or not. To Effy that owns the 29.2, I'm so happy you don't have the problems or STRESS with your Thor. I guess your coach got made when they still had Quality Control checks!!!!!574Views0likes0CommentsRe: Thor ACE
Thanks for the replies! I have been researching the Florida RV Lemon Law. It says if the problem is causing a loss in value that it falls in Lemon Law statue. I think a leaking roof from the factory that is running in the walls is a great case! I will fight this JUNK RV builder as long as my wallet will let me if the law fails! The RV family needs to stand up to these builders and not just trade in and take a loss!574Views0likes0CommentsThor ACE
I read someone else on the site has had problems with their Thor Axis. We bought a new Thor ACE IN June 2014. It has been a nightmare. Leaks from roof,shower storage area. So many other things I don't want to waste readers time with. Just want to say I WILL NOT EVER buy another Thor product and would not recommend them to anyone. I don't know how it left the factory with so many problems! It looks like we will end up in a Lemon Law court due to leaks in roof that is causing damage to the coach and resale problems. Just wished someone else would have posted about Thor before I spent $80,000.00 for our retirement joy of traveling. Sorry just had to vent.6.2KViews0likes14CommentsRe: Camper tires
Thanks so much for all of the replies. Where can I find the rated axles lbs? I bought this used and not much info from seller. It has E rated tires on it now. It is a 35' Fleetwood 5th wheel gvwr 14,000. Can't get any info from Fleetwood since they stopped making them. Again thanks for ALL the info for a rookie 5er.296Views0likes0CommentsCamper tires
We are traveling out west and had a blowout on our 5th wheel camper. I bought the tires new in 2011 and they only have about 3000 miles on them. I had a couple rv repair guys tell me to go to LT Tires. Has anyone heard this or using them? Which LT tires to buy? I have 235/85/16 trailer tires on it now. MADE IN CHINA.....Didn't know that when I bought them. Thanks for any help with this. Jerry from Ky2.3KViews0likes12Comments
