SkipJRe: Happi jac issueI've had good response from happijac, send your defective motor and you have the choice of rebuilt or new motor. At different prices of course. SkipJRe: Happi jac issueI had the same experence with a happi jack motor used on the lift mechanism of our Outfitter. Bob Ward sent me a replacement, said Happijac get some bad motors from their Chinese source. SkipJRe: water heater helpYou leave it on while you drive? Seems a waste of propane. SkipJRe: Thinking Ahead - ColoradoIf you go to Moab, don't reserve too many days unless you are bringing your 4x4 vehicle. Our RV park, Canyonlands Rv park, doesn't refund if you leave early!! They told us over the phone when we reserved they would. But when we checked in they said the opposite. People we spoke to who mountain bike were disappointed because they share patches with 4x4 and didn't feel safe. They wish they made shorter reservations. Can't do too much in the N. P. without a 4x4. SkipJRe: Anybody using Stable Lifts?We met a couple a couple of years ago with a stable lift on their camper, they were very pleased with it. I was impressed with how quickly they got the camper off the truck. I have had one failure on my happijac lift after using it twice. It is rarely used but apparently the motors are not well waterproofed, the factory suggested I put ziplock bags over them when in storage!!! You might keep in mind that some camper manufacturers don't recommend using the camper off the truck. SkipJRe: Lance or Artic Fox or ???One thing that is important to me is a factory tour. Also, for us being near the factory that will do repairs is important to us. Finding a dealer with a good service department that sell your brand can be difficult. We are lucky we live near the Airstream factory and the manufacturers in Indiiana. SkipJRe: Lance or Artic Fox or ???Someone said that RV's are made just "good enough". Some people expect a product as good as the manufacturer says the are, then complain when they aren't. Others are easily satisfied, an owner of a camper of the same manufacture as mine was happy to refinish the woodwork in his brand new camper. Someone once told me that owning an Rv is a "hobby". SkipJRe: 2003 Outfitter Apex 9.5 ValueThey were not in the bluebook last time I looked. Makes them hard to value. SkipJRe: TC Refrigerator adviceBrand new fridge? Should work better than that.
