Re: Looking for RV parks near Boston MA

This is near Lexington and Concord which you can drive to. Also near two commuter train stations where you can catch a train to downtown Boston. You do not want to try driving your truck into Boston unless you really enjoy total frustration! I second Lampooner. We stayed there last year and really enjoyed it. Lots of trees, nice pool, well maintained. But have your bug juice handy, the skeeters were thicker than thieves!!746Views0likes0CommentsSolar panels and battery cut off
I have a new 5er. It came with solar charger - Go Power brand. I’ve only had it a couple of weeks and haven’t had a chance to do much with ie because of the holidays and weather. My question has to do with the batteries and the solar chargers. When I put the rig in storage I hit the battery disconnect. I assumed the solar charger would still charge with battery cut off. But when I returned the batteries were dead. I guess I shouldn’t use the battery cut-off??2.5KViews0likes10CommentsBreak away cable
Hi folks, I’m a long time travel trailer owner who just upgraded to a fifth wheel. I have seen multiple references to people incorrectly looping the breakaway cable over their hitch arm. My rv dealer did exactly that when I took delivery of the new 5er. My question is, where should I attach the breakaway cable? Thanks, Mr. B8.6KViews0likes42CommentsRe: Hard tonneau covers and 5er hitch

When I switched to a TrailAir pinbox I had to move the tonneau cover forward a little to clear the shock absorber. JK I have a TrailAir pin box as well. That may be an issue. Thanks for the info.914Views0likes0CommentsHard tonneau covers and 5er hitch
Hi folks. I have a new Ram 3500 short bed with a Curt A20 slider to tow our new fifth wheel. I am looking at the tri-fold style hard tonneau cover. My question is can the cover be left on the truck in the folded position while towing or do I need to completely remove the cover?4.7KViews0likes14CommentsRe: Fifth Wheel cameras and tow vehicle
Thanks for all of the replies folks. I just purchased a 2019 Ram 3500 today. I decided to go with a moderately equipped Tradesman, so no plans to integrate with the 5” screen it came with. So the separate camera is the plan. Again, you guys are awesome. All the info on here really clarified my thought process.528Views0likes0Comments
