Electrical question
Hello, off the bat this is my first rv (5th wheel). It is a 88 automate. When I Have my trailer plugged into shore power I had my A/C running on hight for about 4 hours and it blew the A/C breaker in the trailer. The plug to was really hot. Is this normal? The breaker in the trailer might be starting to get weak. The wife and I are hoping to buy a new trailer down the road. Are the new trailers more efficient on drawing power these,days? Thanks2.4KViews0likes12CommentsRe: thank you all that posted

I can have them tow my RV to my preferred location rather than to the closest shop. This means I don't have to wait for GS to find a shop willing to take me (which can be a problem on a Sunday before a Monday holiday). Instead, I can call AAA and say "tow me to my regular shop", knowing that they will fix my RV. GS is better when out in new territory because they will find you a shop willing to fix your RV. You don't have to worry about finding a tow destination while you're sitting on the side of the road. The weakest point with GS, in my opinion, are the phone operators. Seems to me that most of the problems are due to the operators: 1) not knowing or not confirming what services the customer has paid for (e.g., concierge service and what that provides); or 2) not communicating enough with the customer during a stressful time (e.g., leaving you sit for 2+ hours with no updates as to your situation). AAA operators have a much better handle as to what services you've paid for, and keep you informed as to their progress in a more timely manner. In the end, for an extra $100 per year, I have both. Seems like cheap insurance to make sure I get safely off the road. GOOD SAM are you hearing this! Thanks this good to know0Views0likes0CommentsRe: thank you all that posted
Well to be fair open another sub forum for other insurance. I made a note that AAA came through when good Sam's fell short. Okay so Good Sam's should encourage people to post when they exceed the members expectations. Like sending them a voucher. But only on a random to keep people from posting false stuff. Or have a yearly drawing From that forum.0Views0likes0Commentsthank you all that posted
Hello All, I have had my 5th wheel for a few years now. I signed up for a good sams discount card $25 (a year thing).So now I get all the wonderful junk mail. Yesterday I opened the envolope from them and I say it looked interesting. So I thought I might call them and see about getting a qoute. So it is Saturday and the wife and I was talking about it. We both love AAA and never ever had problems with them even on Highway 50 in Nevada when we were broke down. So I was going to post a question on the forum and found this sub category. Man I am really glad I did. I noticed every one fell back on AAA. So much for looking to save money. I will keep my AAA.good Sam's better get it together if they want my money. For now Good Sams no thank you.9.4KViews0likes17Comments
