  1. Amen to Tom's comment... our favorite place to bathe the truck does a decent rinse with open hood (Danny's Oasis Truck Center, west PHX); they do a nice job, standard treatment includes towel down the window and major exterior sections... tire treatment & topocal wax (avoid the RainX, it's bad for the clear coat, my local RV wash & wax guy advises!).

    Checking if it works for me...
  3. Please clarify prices --- whiich price is the Volvo and which is the 5'er?!?
  4. Ha, ha, ha — happy memories getting the trailer properly leveled out with that pin box mod (along with Misc fixes & BlueDot install)— 6 weeks at upstate NH forest with you & Davena, Henry B. daily visits with MIL, Lorena! Cheers to all at Hutch!
  5. Aha, a new Binkley head that’s less than 100#… finally, now that I’m 15 years into the old GOAT - ET Sr😬
  6. Driving Hwy 1 (PCH) north from Morro Bay to Carmel. Is a sweet ride -- okay for us many times, at 64' it's no biggie! -Don
  7. Main St Station casino (in Vegas) has RV park, FHU, $25/nite, walking distance to Fremont St Experience. http://www.mainstreetcasino.com/ Monterey has Elks lodge with RV parking (members only); same deal in Salinas. Or, Watsonville has fairgrounds with camping spaces (if no big event is going on). Alternatively, check Day's End directory (SKP only subscription, $12/yr)... Contact Guy Gipson or the website ... http://www.daysenddirectory.com/ HTH! -Don
  8. P.s. We miss Yoda,,, wish you were here -- hope all is well! Don & Fannie
  9. We are (finally) safely ensconced in (sunny) valley of the Sun (east Mesa, AZ),,, our winter haven; 75' covered RV parking next to the house, full hookups for properly equipped full-timers. Here for 3 mos (sq/round dancing & MLB spring training), holler if you get close (en route to North Ranch, or Q, or whatever!).
  10. P.p.s. FWIW, the b.s. I've had dealing with lost pads & broken calipers (no thanks to Kodiak!), we coulda had about 10k more dollars over the years -- disc brakes are huge over-kill with HDT toter, and potentially high maintenance (what with pads, calipers & rotors); I do love the BlueDot affect -- it's amazing to feel all 14 wheels grab at the same time, just not necessary if driving an HDT -- plain old electric brake drums, properly & cheaply maintained, woulda been just fine!@!
  11. P.s. Give our regards to R&D; also, hi to Dave & Renee!
  12. If you're so inclined, we are (just now) safely ensconced in (sunny) valley of the Sun (east Mesa, AZ),,, our winter haven; 75' covered RV parking next to the house, full hookups for properly equipped full-timers. Here for 3 mos (sq/round dancing & MLB spring training), holler if you get close (en route to North Ranch, or Q, or whatever!).
  13. Yep,,, nice pics -- glad to see what looks like a 4-step automatic entry steps(?); on close inspection, entry door is adjacent the LR slide (not in it!). How do I learn/contact John Palmer? I may need solar "fix", looking for advice (him or Jack)? We are (soon) in Mesa, AZ for the winter; give a holler if you get close enough to chat!
  14. We finally made it back to Mesa from Alaska & Yukon, via Jasper, Missoula, St George & Vegas (slight detour for several shows, in order to hit Danny's Oasis truck wash -- removing last remnants of calcium treatment picked abit north of Destruction Bay!). Will be here for a few weeks tending to RV recovery from 5 months, 9k miles of travel; plan to be in NorCalif for T'giving & Christmas.
  15. We stayed at Hoover Park for several months -- enjoyed B'ham Barons & SE conference baseball, and their fireworks shows -- but that was Mar-Jun; nice temperate climes nearly year-round! $140/wk, 100 Ben Chapman Dr (866-466-8378) -Don
