Find a military buddy, Miramar has a wash that is big enough and 32nd street should be as well.Re: loading and unloading supplies CavemanCharlie wrote: Bisker wrote: CavemanCharlie wrote: Bisker wrote: Trailer is in storage lot, truck is about 80 YARDS from the front door... four wheel wagon to load the following: propane tank, propane fire pit, propane fryer, ice cooler filled with food, laundry sack with clothes, grocery bags with more food than we will eat, misc. stuff we bought at Camping World or Walmart, anything else my DW thinks we need but probably won't use. Note: We don't pack anything from Camping World we order online, because it hasn't arrived yet! I'm curious as to why you remove the propane tank, propane fire pit, and propane fryer? I would just leave them in the RV. I also don't take more food then I can eat. Wherever I go there is a grocery store close enough nearby to get items I want. I'm just a weekend camper and I often take just enough perishable food for the first night. Then I purchase the rest the next day. I use the tank, fryer and pit at home as well. As for the food, where we camp there is no "reasonably priced" grocery store and DW can never settle on what she wants so a bunch of goodies come just to come home with us, lol. OK. I understand and respect that. I would buy a second propane tank though, there cheap. I get why you move the rest though. To each there own. Well, if I had it my way there would be a lot less lugging stuff back and forth, but happy wife happy life, lol. We did have a great 4th of July camping with friends, and yes we took too much and I lugged a bunch of stuff both ways, sigh!Re: Camping World Online orderingTook about two months for me to recieve everything I ordered, each item shipped seperately, when all could have fit in the one box the last item came in. No more Camping World for me! Oh and the awning clips I ordered tweaked my awning so now it does not retract or extend smoothly. Nice how a $3.00 item could cost me $300.00 in repairs!Re: loading and unloading supplies CavemanCharlie wrote: Bisker wrote: Trailer is in storage lot, truck is about 80 YARDS from the front door... four wheel wagon to load the following: propane tank, propane fire pit, propane fryer, ice cooler filled with food, laundry sack with clothes, grocery bags with more food than we will eat, misc. stuff we bought at Camping World or Walmart, anything else my DW thinks we need but probably won't use.

Fortunately nothing was a must have and they still might arrive by our 4th of July trip!Re: Position of propane regulator - facing forward or backMine is faceing the trailer, bought a $1.00 mirror at the camp store. hold the mirror so I can see the regulator, no biggie.Re: Heater won't work - am I missing something? HELPThe "blowing cold air for hours" is concerning, I had an issue with my furnace not lighting, but after three attempts it would shut off. Your unit should have a similar feature, which if it continued to run would lead me to believe it thought it had ignited. One thing I do, to make sure the furnace is getting gas, is to turn the stove on and then start the furnace. If you see the stove flame drop dramatically you may not be getting enough gas to light your furnace. Whatever you do while troubleshooting the problem, keep your trailer well ventalated and have someone with you.Re: How do you feel about people walking through your campsite?
