Re: carbon monoxide detector
Hello, I have a COSTAR Carbon Monoxide Detector that is both hard wired and batter backed up. It has two red and one yellow wire connecting it to the coach for power. I need a replacement and am wondering what is the best out there? I found the same detector for $95 however there are several negative reviews regarding this particular detector. Any recommendations would be much appreciated. Thx!!! Here is what I currently have. Its beeping twice every 30 seconds and the code indicated replacement. Its 5 years old.634Views0likes0CommentsRe: Your Rig

Bought them in 2014 as a package deal and have taken them out about 8-9 times so far. No issues with either except the truck does sag alittle while camper is attached. Looking at air bags or helper springs eventually. Moderator edit to re-size picture to forum recommended limit of 640px maximum width.

Thanks again for all the replies. We ended up having a great time at Fairview Camp Ground. We were able to fit in Camp spot 21. There was no way we could fit in the 40' pull threw spots. 21 is a back in spot and it barely worked. And to get out of the Camp Ground I had to back all the way out. There was no way I could make the turn toward the end of the Lower circle to get out. It wasn't really that bad and ended up working out good. We will still go back as long as we could get spot 21 or maybe 22. Those are the only spots I saw on the south circle that will accommodate 40' + 5th wheel. The water level was high enough to go tubing and there was plenty of water bibs around to fill the trailers fresh water. Peter the host was very friendly and accommodating too! We didn't get to try the Famous 40oz Porter House at McNally's but their lunch burgers were awesome!!! The bar there makes some good drinks also We also did the drive to the Trail of 100 Giants. The kids had a blast there!! As far as the drive, we opted to come in the from the east and took the 405N to the 5N to the 14N to the 178W up over Walker Pass into Isabella. Not a bad drive and the pull up the Walker pass wasn't as bad as I thought. Going west from the 14 was a pretty good tug but coming up over the pass from the west wasn't that bad at all. Gotta watch that down grade speed though. Overall it was a great trip, thx again for all the info!!!797Views0likes0CommentsAnyone camp at Fairview Campground in Kernville?
We are planning on heading out there this weekend. I am coming from the south, LA area and was also wondering what the best route would be. I have a 40' toy hauler 5th wheel and the 178 from the west look pretty curvy and tight. Anyone with insight on this campsite as to things to bring, not to bring, things to do and so on and so forth would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!!!

Thank you!!788Views0likes0CommentsRe: Has anyone repainted their 5er hitch?
Great ideas!! I think I will give Air Safe a call and see if they will hook me up with some new stickers for the final touch... Thx I'm about a mile from the ocean here on the west coast and YES the salty air really messes with this stuff.499Views0likes0Comments
