That's not nearly enough AC if the unit was meant to be parked in the **** North Pole all its life.Re: Toilet paper testIf you're shoving used toilet paper into zip lock bags, what brand/type of toilet paper is the least of your issues. Lol.Re: ladder towhead wrote: I tried to replace some rusty headed screws on mine yesterday and found that the wood behind the fiberglass was rotted and new screws have nothing to grip. Now i need to know if anyone can tell me how to get a solid attachment. The wall is rotted. The ladder is the least of your problems now unfortunately.Re: How often should youWhen the rear cap fades or this post gets to 12 pages of " I've seen some dirt on my bearing so I do them every week."Re: UPDATED Great time in Myrtle Not so much on the trip homeAny boat or marine repair shop that knows anything should be able to redeck, glass, and gel coat that back up to look good as new. Then start auto body shops. Know it doesn't help here but since I'm guessing I'm 1/2 or 2/3 your age I'd fix that myself in drive way with material from homedepot, west marine and a Napa parts store. And I'd bet I could do it in 10 days for less then $1500 in material even if you have to do half that whole side. It's not that hard.Re: UPDATED Great time in Myrtle Not so much on the trip homeCut a deal with insurance company. Let them total it then buy it back for scrap. Who cares if the title is "salvage" at that point. It's still yours and you're not going to get rid of it. Take insurance money and spend a few grand letting a good body shop fix it back up. Use it till the wheels fall off that turd or it burns to ground and leave it right there forever.Re: How important is it to buy local?Buy what you want where you want. Any dealer who provides rv service and flat out refuses to earn by servicing something he didn't sell is an idiot without the most basic of business sense. Do you really want an organization that stupid attempting to work and fix your RV.Re: What truck to fit 6 people and fifth wheel?Every manufacturer builds a truck that will accommodate your needs for passenger capacity and towing ability. They just run about $75000.00 new. Choose one and go. Then buy your fifth wheel. Give you wife the payment books for each.Re: How to repaint fifth-wheel hitch plate?It's a hitch. I keep it mechanically maintained then I don't care what it looks like or care what other people think. I have more important things to worry about like scratching my butt or if I should trust a fart after taco Tuesday.Re: Misting SystemMisters will not work in Florida without an associated fan. Then you're only talking incrementally more comfort. You want to be comfortable in Florida during summer (March to October) and not sweat balls or swampass you're inside with 2800 BTU of AC for every 30' of rv.
