Moosh and Wander
My wife and I sold our 34' Montana trailer (tired of hauling around the Empire State building) and bought a 2014 Thor Freedom Elite 28Z (E450) from Camping World (great experience btw). We just took a test trip to Payson, AZ and noticed the RV has a habit of being mooshie and wanders around the road. When I was towing the Montana behind my Dodge truck on the straights I could really take my hands off the wheel and it would track straight down the road. Not this Thor! It likes to moosh and wander around the road at random, even with no wind. Is this what life with a Class C is? I hope not because it gets old fast. I have searched this forum and it I wanted to see if my understanding of a possible solution is. 1) Install Bilstein Shocks, 2) Helwig swaybars. So longtime class C owners, will this help the Thor track straight or is this just life in a class C? Thanks, Tod2.1KViews0likes9CommentsRe: Trip advice - New to RV'ing and from London UK!
I live in Arizona and yes it is a big place. I like Oldmattb's list of sites to see. I would decide on what part of Arizona to concentrate on for your short trip. Either tour the high country of the Northern part of Arizona or the Southern part of Arizona for your trip. Southern Arizona Kartchner Caverns I like the RV park here because the hosts were very nice and the place was well taken care of. http://azstateparks.com/Parks/KACA/index.html You need to sign up for a tour of the living caves. That is the best part of this area. From the RV park you can just walk across to the tour area. Also, there are hiking trails off the RV park and you can see the outside (can't go in) of an old tungsten mine. Bisbee Great Town to visit with lots of history and good restaurants to visit. There are many shops to cruise through and a mining museum to visit. The RV park sets up on a hill next to the strip mine and you can walk to town. http://www.queenminervpark.com I would also suggest to sign up for the Queen Mine Tour. It is right next to the RV park. http://www.queenminetour.com/ Tombstone Great town to visit with lots to see. Many restaurants to eat at. Make sure to visit a photo shop and have an old fashion photo taken of the family. Watch out for the OK Corral at high noon :D Picacho Peak A fun RV park with a bunch of hiking trails. http://azstateparks.com/Parks/PIPE/index.html Northern Arizona Williams Great small town off I-40. Many restaurants to eat and many stores to visit. Grand Canyon Railway You can stay at the RV park of the Grand Canyon Railway and sign up to take the train to the Southern end of the Grand Canyon. You take the train and get to have lunch at the lodge. Watch out! The train might be stopped by train robbers. The next day you can take your RV up the road and visit the Grand Canyon again because there are many museums and other sites to visit along the way. http://www.thetrain.com Make a reservation at the RV Lodge. http://www.thetrain.com/lodging/rv-park/ If you want to go fishing there are many camping places to visit. Dogtown Lake Campground An easy campground to stay at that is next to a great lake. Try your luck at fishing. Kaibab Lake Also a great camping ground to try your luck at fishing. Meteor Crater Down I-40 is meteor crater which would be interesting for you to visit. I haven't stayed at the RV park, but it would fun. My kid wants to stay here for Memorial Day Weekend. http://www.meteorcrater.com/ The RV Park link: http://www.meteorcrater.com/RV-Park-Overview RV Park Review http://www.rvparkreviews.com/regions/Arizona/Winslow.html#CGID4890 I hope this helps.

The box on the left is a 110 outlet. The box on the right I believe is for the antenna. this is on the starboard side, but the TV mount is also on the starboard side past the door. The cabinet runs from the back of the co-pilot seat to the side door. There are speaker all the way in the back so could they be for those speakers? If so, why would they expose speaker wires in this location????359Views0likes0CommentsWhat are these wires?
This is my first post here so please be gentle. I just bought a Thor Freedom Elite 28z and there are some wires that are on the starboard side near the front. I asked a bunch of people at Camping World but no one knew what these wires are. Anybody have any idea? Tod2.4KViews0likes9Comments
