So, my brand new Mitsubishi manual trans Mirage is off to the local Blue OX dealer this afternoon to have the base plate installed. My 37' Four Winds Infinity has a full width mud flap (?) in back of the rear tires that rides about 2-3" above the g...
I am planning to stay in one spot for several months next summer. Rather than leave the levelers extended for that period of time would it make sense to use them to level the motorhome, block it up then retract the levellers? Has anyone done this? ...
About to store my Motorhome for the winter months. Do people recommend changing the oil in the fall before storing or in the spring. (I use synthetic oil if that makes a difference.

BTW, thank you all for your comments. They are all very helpful. I guess I have a month or two to decide what to do. I fully expect to winterized the RV no matter where it is stored my main concern is driving on winter roads.
Joebedford, how do you find winter driving with your RV? Is it similar to driving a car or truck? I'm concerned that a 36' bus might be difficult to handle with cross winds on snowy or cold roads.
