I also have disc brakes on the fiver, stopping in a panic is NOT an issue... IF your ok towing at MAXIMUM, it can be done safelyRe: 15k AC on Honda EU2000Thanks for all the responses..... I will borrow my brothers EU2200 and run them parallel ...15k AC on Honda EU2000I need to do some remodeling in the bedroom of my fiver, My 50 amp outlet at the RV is temporarily disconnected..... I have a Honda EU2000, Would that be enough to run 1 of my AC's? I would rather use that than run a LONG extension cord from the closest outlet..Re: Tires- Tires - Tires fj12ryder wrote: "To me, Sailuns just seam too new to judge just yet?? Perhaps I am over thinking it?" They've been out and popular for at, or over, 10 years. That's not exactly brand new. I bought my first set in 2013. Those tires were still on the trailer when I sold it in 2021. I guess that I didn't think they have been around that long.... It seams like I've only been hearing their name over the past 3 years or so.... Thats good info, Thank YouRe: Tires- Tires - TiresAgreed, BUT just hate the fact that a simple tire shredding could cause so much $$$ damage .. To me, Sailuns just seam too new to judge just yet?? Perhaps I am over thinking it?Re: Tires- Tires - TiresI have heard nothing but stellar reports on the Sailun, but all I can think of is what will happen after a tire blow out with RV damage ?? Will they stand up like Goodyear has done to folks in the past? I am running GY G114's now, but was trying to NOT spend $425 per tire.. working off retirement budget nowTires- Tires - TiresIt’s that time again to start doing homework on tires… running 215/75/17.5 and here is what I’ve found- In terms of cost- Cheapest- Saliun Middle- Cooper Work Series RHT Top- GoodYear G114 Need to save some cash, anyone running the Cooper Work series? I have a friend that purchases a new Grand Design and paid for the Cooper upgrade. That is what he is running but only has 1.5 years of limited use on them. My RV scales in at 16,750#Re: slight shock** UPDATE ** We found the issue.. The extension cord he was using as a temp was heavy duty with 6 ga wire, BUT..... ( or someone ) cut the ground prong off the male end... SO it was plugged into the wall socket, without the ground..... He didn't think that was an issue, I removed the cord, CUT both ends off it and trashed it. We then plugged another into the wall.. All is good now. Thanks allRe: slight shockhe was plugged into a 15 amp outlet from his garage..ai told him to check his electric cord reel... have heard of those grounds failingslight shockMy neighbor just purchased a new ( used ) fifth wheel.. When he was inspecting it at home, he received a slight "shock" when touching the lug nuts... He did not feel it anywhere else.. I am thinking maybe a loose ground wire? what says the experts here??
