I replaced my sofa/hide a bed with a love seat leather recliner and love it. I looked at RV dealers but they wanted way too much money for the Thomas Payne loveseats so I went with a no name brand from a furniture store for $400. Very happy with the new love seat. Picture It also gave me room to add the small end table in the picture272Views0likes0CommentsRe: RV Parks charging for water use?
bobsallyh wrote: There are several RV Parks in Yuma, AZ. that have started to charge for water. They are long term snowbird parks. With the poor city water quality (extreme hardness) it had better be good water if they are charging for it. I certainly wouldn’t pay for Yuma city water. I’d be tempted to haul the RV to the corner water stand and get good water for 50 cents for 5 gallons.275Views0likes0CommentsRe: Apex front strip lights
I just replaced my docking light on my fifth wheeel (a shitty 191 incandescent bulb fixture) with 2 - 36” LED strip lights. I ordered the LED strip lights from SuperbrightLED in an IP67 waterproof style and bought some 3M 2 sided tape at O’Reillys. I applied the strip lights under the bunk and wired into the existing dock light wiring. I used clear silicone to clean up the install by sealing the strip lights on the sides (rounds off the exposures). Looks great, lighting is excellent now.365Views0likes0Comments
