Re: MH used newer or older
At 35’ you do not need a diesel engine so go to 40’ so you have no choice plus you’ll save a step or two and a fair amount of money. I made the mistake 20 years ago believing 36’ was max for public CGs… not true even in a big rig. Went to the Tampa Super RV show last month and again was not impressed with the new DPs…poor fit and finish plus very heavy and surprisingly poor CCC. Agree 03-08 (if it has a 06 engine) we’re good years I’m partial to the Monaco products, especially the bigger ones with a tag axle… 40’ or more. Great handling rigs and well built.842Views0likes0CommentsRe: Harvesting Solar
Not sure if you’re complaining or bragging. 2 loads of laundry assuming dry too is a waste of battery usage… crank your generator. Your refrigerator #s are way off, even with the ice maker on. My 21 Whirlpool draws 8 amps measured before the inverter and only runs 40% of the time… confirmed with a KW meter at 1.3KW/day with the ice maker off. When using a high amp item for any length of time, crank the generator and turn the ice maker on to harvest the ice. With no one near you, what’s with not running the generator?1KViews0likes0CommentsRe: Michelin vs Toyo tires

Looked at others but always told, "yes they are cheaper but not as good of a ride"" So how do you know if others ride/handle just as well if not better? 40 years nothing but Michelin, will never buy another.5KViews0likes0Comments
