Re: A/C with Heat Pump, worth it?
I did not have a heat pump option, but do have a heated 'fireplace' So trade off right? The heat pump is great if you use the RV in cooler weather as it would help you reduce your propane use dramatically. But so could two 1500 watt cube heaters depending on the cost of the upgrade.429Views0likes0CommentsRe: 6 point leveling
I have the LCI 6 point. Auto level pretty much only will work when you are disconnected. Though I was in a pretty level overnight sight (hit auto level not thinking about it) and it leveled. But generally just manual level for hooked up overnight. One thing is unless you have to really extend, the 6 point I think does a great job to nearly remove all shaking of the trailer.251Views0likes0CommentsRe: Fort Wilderness Campground
Head over to dis boards and check out their camping forum. There are just pages and pages of information about getting around by bus, driving to the parks yourself, getting around inside the campground. A lot of it depends on what site you booked, what your plan is for the stay, and what your style of camping/theme parks are. If you have a pet with you, make sure you tell them you need a pet loop. Otherwise I have yet to find a site I did not like at Disney, though depending on your rig and which site level you booked some are just impossible to get larger rigs into and might require a phone call or trip back to the check in settlement to correct.311Views0likes0CommentsRe: Refiners - a factor in the price of fuel.
End all be all. Since fuel process are traded on a speculation market, the reason for the price of any of it comes down to one thing. Because they can. However, because they can raise prices faster then they can drop them, usually means when they go up and stay up I spend a lot more time driving less.536Views0likes0CommentsRe: Installing PullRite SuperRails in F350 -- anyone done it?
The rail kits at times end up missing a hole. I prefer to use the industry standard rail kids over the product specific. Those usually mean lots of drilling. But a can of PB and proper drilling speed a few holes are not too horrible.285Views0likes0CommentsRe: Xlr thunderbolt and srw
There maybe one or two XLR that once the toys are in the back would not be over your RAWR or GVWR once you load it up and the truck. But most of them from the dry weight sticker I saw where notoriously pin heavy like most toy haulers are. Even with the counter weight of the toys I just don't think you'' be in safe range.264Views0likes0CommentsRe: Amazing things some folks do
Potable rated hoses come in all sorts of colors. Personally, I don't care what the guy next to me does when they dump or disconnect. Just don't leak black water all over the place and don't leave it a mess. The water spigots are outdoors, never assume they are clean unless you just cleaned them.171Views0likes0CommentsRe: An observation on WAZE app
Dont worry, you don't need the WAZE app into cause the stop and go slinky in the DC area. It happens all on its own without any need for an app or a hazard to be noted. The problem is there are never any alternate route to save time because those are clogged as well. It got worse outside core HOV hours once they turned the free HOV lanes into 24 hour toll lanes.326Views0likes0CommentsRe: Ford Diesel 6.0 really that bad?
Ford uses remans as well now FYI, local ford dealer said unless you want to wait a month plus for new to come in they don't even stock them anymore. Its just making sure you get good reman injectors. I did my injectors in September 2014, 5600 hours on the motor and they where getting a little cranky. Yes the truck idled a lot before I got it, and I am not the best at shutting her down either depending on what I am doing.155Views0likes0Comments
