Vitamin D levels are slow to correct, it may take several months for a supplement to get you back to the minimums and you really want to be higher than that! You should be able to get plenty of sun where you are and a few minutes a day of sunlight can also help your D levels, just don't overdo the sun!

We found that leaving the fan set to run constantly on low kept our AC unit from shutting down for long periods in high outside temps. It wouldn't restart for a lot longer than the normal delay to let pressures drop when the sun was baking it. We also added some insulation under the AC cover and above the innards to try and keep the sun from adding so much heat during the day, didn't make any noticable difference.

Jim, get a pool-noodle and slit it to snap over the bottom edge of the slide.

I got fed up with my nosebleeds and got them cauterized, hurt like the dickens but it made a big difference. I'd do it again but I'd go pee before I let the doc work on it again. Don't ask, just pee first!

If you don't trust them to rotate the tires properly you can chalk them with RF, LF, RR, and RF in big letters and then check where they go back. I've taken to putting in a special instruction when I go into our Toyota dealer: Verify correct tire pressure with customer before releasing vehicle. Makes them grumpy but since they fouled up the pressures a couple times in a row I decided to check them myself in their nice shady delivery bay and before driving home and getting them hot.

It is great that Escapees is offering more home-base states as an option, a bit sad that it is coming from government stupidity.

We modified our couch to be several inches taller by making spacers that went between the floor and the couch legs. The extra space created under it we turned into storage space.

I'd like just the reverse of that, toys on the truck and living quarters on the trailer so you could camp one place and play nearby without having to break camp.

Unless there is a clearance issue between the bed and fiver there is no reason to avoid a pickup bed if one is available on the truck you want.

A nice HDT is going to be a lot less money than an MDT and I just don't think you are going to get any fiver on a 4x4 MDT I've seen unless you are willing to shave a couple feet off the bedroom height. Dig into the IH numbers and get a good idea of frame rail heights, even with a fully recessed hitch and no truck bed you do not want less than 6" between frame rails and gooseneck bottom for street use. Off level pavement I can tell you from learning the hard way 8" IS NOT enough, crinked my pickup bed and fiver just making a U-turn on a slope that the 2wd truck had no issues with. On off-road use with the trailer you will be surprised at the amount of drag six wheels carrying 15,000 plus has when the soil turns soft. We had an MDT and two pickups harnessed together to snake out a much lighter two axle fiver from the flat but soft desert outside Q. I watched some folks dig a 10x15 foot hole two to three feet deep on a hillside once, it was tougher than you'd think because all but the outside edge was under their rig holding the wheels off the ground. Took them a few days but they seemed to have gotten it off, the tracks went from the pit directly to the closest road. Measure your front and rear fiver ground clearance and calculate your approach angles very carefully as repairs once you have dug out are expensive and fiver bellies are very vulnerable. Personally I'd scout a route to a campsite in something smaller but heavy enough to give you an idea of the ground's weight bearing ability, pay particular attention to getting turned around, more than one driver has gotten into a spot that getting back out of was very difficult. Another issue is rain, it isn't uncommon to find your dry spot under the fiver and truck are the only places that will support their weight, stay parked until it dries out or with for it to dry and then start digging. Think about the size hole you'll need under the fiver to get it back to firm ground and out of the truck's ruts. I haven't driven a modern 4x4 MDT but on an older generation the rear drive ones were much easier on the spine and arms, you might want to check that out too. Make sure to throw in some low speed sharp turns going forward and back as well as normal street driving.

Roamer, Travis won't likely see that post since he usually only visits the forums when there are reports. Not a bad idea though, if you click the report button on your post and ask him to consider it he will see it.

Teresa and Greg don't read the forum on a regular basis so they likely will not see these posts and respond. Someone could call the club office, ask for Teresa and post back what she has to say or ask her to have Greg post it as an official update.

Why would you say something like that?

If you don't register it for road use doesn't it then become taxable similar to a mobile home? I recall some fussing about that many years ago but not the details.

The club office is working on this.

I sent a report on this topic asking the admins to forward it to the front office for an official reply.

If the normal cord is snapping you may have a frozen pulley or something sticking, it is worth looking for as the blinds will be less hassle if they move as freely as possible. Another string option is heavy woven fishing line, very strong and wear resistant.

Do try the downtown casinos while you are there, the wife's bingo skills kept us fed and full of diesel as well as collecting a bunch of jackets and such one summer we spent there. It would have been more but her slot skills aren't so good and ate into the bingo profits. Me I just do the casino buffets and I feel like I won every visit.

Skip the RV fridge gear and get a spring tension curtain rod or two to keep stuff in your fridge. You just twist them to set the length and press them into place in front of the food. Store in a drawer or up at the top of the fridge compartment out of the way.

If you get pumped out don't let them hook the hose directly to your RV's dump pipe, way too easy to get a bit too much suction and collapse/shatter your tank. Dumping into a tub and pumping from that works or you can make a "T" adapter that has a big vent line tall enough to prevent overflow when you open your valves. You don't want to be buying and using a porta-potty from WalMart while trying to find a replacement tank and get it installed.
