Re: How many miles do you get out of your good tires?
My tires are closing in on 4 years old and might have 10k on them and I had a blowout yesterday. They have a ton of tread on them. Not a huge load, no water or fuel, only our Rhino in it. These tires have lasted longer than any of the others i have had, they are E rated, i have not heard of G rated before. Can you get those in a ST225/75/15? Even though these have been good I am tired of blowouts, this one tore up my trailer a bit...510Views0likes0CommentsRe: 12v necessary to run refer
We have it running on gas now, the coils are heating up more evenly. He is not very patient but I told him to leave it alone, the freezer was actually a little warmer inside right after we turned it on, I never mess with mine so I don't know if this is normal. going to let it run all night and tomorrow as well.386Views0likes0CommentsRe: 12v necessary to run refer
Well, adding the battery didn't help, still no cooling. The model is Dometic RM660 5.1 cubic inch. On the coils on the back, the large part at the bottom gets hot but the coils are not, should they be? I am going over there after work to try to help him out with it, going to check and make sure the box it is plugged into is actually live...386Views0likes0Comments12v necessary to run refer
My buddy just bought a 1981 Prowler 19' TT with a Dometic refrigerator that looks like the original. He has it very level and plugged into a 110 outlet. Everything else is working good except the fridge. It just donned on me that he does not have the battery hooked up, will that cause issues with the fridge? Also, it has a converter should that be on or off when he has it plugged in and the battery installed as well? My toy hauler is much newer and does all these things for me...2.7KViews0likes13CommentsRe: Newbie question
If you are not hauling any toys I would stay away from toy haulers, they are much heavier than a travel trailer. My friend has a 23' Weekend Warrior that he towed with an early Tundra and he did extensive mods to the truck just to handle it. IMO you will be much happier with a travel trailer for just because of the weight and even price difference. happy RV'ing!205Views0likes0CommentsRe: 1990 Skyline Nomad M2521 weight
4500 sounds about right. I was just trying to save some time since it is a bit of a drive to go see this thing, finding out when we get there and look at the tags and if it is too heavy is a waste of a Saturday! I think he is going to be fine, his truck is rated to pull 7000lbs...Thanks for the info!900Views0likes0Comments
