Re: Tricks for keeping restless passenger happy while towing?

I don't think it would work in a pickup. It really requires a flat seat.614Views0likes0CommentsRe: Winter RV camping

After you verify that there are no leaks in the connections, wrap the tail of the heater tape around the hose and the faucet and cover with insulation. Plug the heater tape into the GFCI protected duplex outlet in the electrical connection panel. Great post and my thanks to DianneOK. I just have one question (at the moment) and that is what is the dog house faucet?638Views0likes0CommentsRe: Pic's of your 30'ish foot 5th wheels & please share weights
We didn't want anything longer than 28 either. Ours is a 2012 Durango 245. 28' from ladder to kingpin. GVWR is 8800 lbs. Looks like KZ replaced the 245 with 251 which is basically the same plan with an extra closet slide and is a little heavier. 2018 Durango 251. The 2012 had the closet side as an option.268Views0likes0CommentsRe: Took a break from traveling to build this for the daughter

You will be into it some big $$$ if you decide to rebuild it. May be better to walk away. Did they accept or reject your offer? I also just want it for the frame and tanks.206Views0likes0CommentsHow do you figure value on an old trailer in poor condition?
NADA isn't much use when it comes to anything older than 1995. After that, all the values for a 29' trailer are the same: low $1725, average $2080. I'm looking at a 1986 Terry that looks like it has to be completely rebuilt. If the tanks hold water, I'm good with rebuilding. The ad says the value is $2000, has no a/c or refrigerator and needs minor updating. The pictures show mold across the ceiling and down the walls. Looks like nothing is salvagable inside. Windows and siding possibly can be reused. They are asking just under $1000. What would you go by to make an offer, knowing you have to rebuild and buy all new fixtures/appliances?12KViews0likes38Comments
