It was really nice. We will stay there our next trip.Re: Bicycle rack recommendationsI installed a receiver to the front of my truck and installed a Swagman XC2 Platform Bike Rack to it. Works great.Re: Fuel mileage on Dodge 5.9 Cummins while towing06 2500 5.9 pulling a 34' fifth wheel weighing about 10,500 I got 11.5 last trip. I haven't pulled the fifth enough to get more. But the 33' travel trailer I pulled consistently got 11.9.Re: Keystone LaredoUnfortunately my story is different from the other in this topic. In 2008 I bought a new 31 BHS. We loved the large bathroom and the small room for our young daughter. The first time we took the camper out both axles slipped down the leaf springs when we left the campground. The camper had to be loaded onto a flatbed 18 wheeler and brought to the dealer. After 4 weeks we got our camper back. Then the large slide leaked badly. It went back to the dealer. This happened two more times on the next two trips. The trailer spent more time at the dealer than our house for the first 8 months we had it. Finally after the first year the front cap delaminated. If you see Laredo's from that time frame you will see most of them have delaminated caps. Over the years we had other leaks and issues. I ended up eternabonding every seam on the roof. Finally last summer I found a soft spot on the floor. The sad part is the inside cabinets and other parts of the camper held up well. We towed the camper all over the country and enjoyed it when it worked properly. I ended up selling it really cheap and bought a new camper.Re: Your RigPicked her up on Black Friday and took it out for the first time this week. 2017 Rockwood 8301WS Re: KeystoneWe bought our Laredo in 2008. First time we took it out, the axles slid off the leaf springs 100 feet outside of the campground. It had to be hauled to the rv dealer by 18 wheeler flat bed. Covered under warranty. Second time out, slide had a massive leak. Bring it in. Third time out massive leak on same slide. Third time was the charm. Then the front cap delaminated just out of the one year warranty. Aside from that, it has been ok.Re: Grease that BallI just cut the top third of a plastic water bottle off and put it on the ball. There are always empty bottles around and when it get to dirty, just throw it away.
