Re: Where to go for RV fishing trip in AZ or New Mex in November
narcodog wrote: Look at the San Juan at Navajo Dam, NM Awesome fishing!!! Just be aware there are rangers always watching for fisherman “shuffling”. It’s illegal and they will fine you , kick you off the river and take pleasure doing it. I’ve watched it more than once. Bad weather beats good there since there are fewer fisherman out in the rain and snow.1.5KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Running Dedicated Water Line For RV at Home?
Pex is not rated for burial. If you don’t want to dig up your yard check with an irrigation company to have them use a vibrating plow to run a line. Or, if you are really handy, vibrating plows can be rented. They aren’t that hard to use but the errors in trial and error could make a mess of a nice lawn. If you go that direction be sure your utilities are located and marked. Cutting a gas, electric or other utility line really ruins a day.5.9KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Robot Tolls - At My Limit!

Cruise America rigs all have 120 volt 30 Amp electrical service. Electric ovens are generally 240 volt, so you would either have to completely upgrade the RVs electrical service or find a propane wall oven that would fit. Even that would require upgrading the propane plumbing. Bottom line is adding a true oven is going to be expensive and likely difficult.1.8KViews0likes0CommentsRe: I have a disgusting problem… HELP!!!
Use a cutting torch to cut an appropriate sized hole in the top. That is assuming a septic pumping company will pump them out. They may very well say “no” since they have no idea if the barrels are full of something other than what you think is inside. My backup plan, assuming you are on rural acreage, would be the backhoe, dig a deep pit, empty the drums, cover up with dirt and forget about it. Rinse and dispose of the drums at the landfill. Personally I would at least think about telling the wife “your kids, you wanted them here, you argued to let them stay, your problem, you handle it”938Views0likes0CommentsRe: 2020 grey wolf TH poor AC
Do you have a thermometer? If so, what temperature does the AC put out at the vent nearest the unit. It should be 30 or more degrees colder than the outside air. If it isn’t, first step is to be sure all the fins and filters are clean. Be sure it isn’t icing up due to running continuously. If that doesn’t help, time for professional or maybe replacement. If the unit is cooling at the vents, time to start insulating the rig and defeating solar gain. Park in the shade if possible. Keep blinds shut. Pull all curtains shut. Avoid putting heat and moisture in the rig . Things l like cooking, doing laundry and showering and opening and closing by the door multiple times all go towards defeating air conditioning. The hard truth is most RVs are not well suited for temperature extremes. The chassis build is not sufficiently insulated, the windows are not thermally efficient, and by default even the undercarriage is exposed to the elements unlike a standard residence that is attached to the ground. Florida in the summer is just as taxing on RV climate systems as North Dakota is in the winter. It can be a losing battle.170Views0likes0Comments
