  1. Another part of the brochure.
  2. This is from the material that comes with it. Denny
  3. When you order Crazy Seal this is what you receive and it has to be ordered from the manufacturer, I've never seen it on and box store shelf. If you did just a little research you will find it is not silicone based. Denny
  4. Not sure what your experience with Crazy Seal and repairs but we had a encounter with a tree branch the first year it was applied that made 3 triangle tears in the roof radius. I sealed them with lap sealant and when we got home a couple of coats of Crazy Seal and all was good. Because the branch rubbed all the way down the trailer I cleaned and and recoated it all the way down. Just cleaned and inspected it after getting back from the winter in AZ and it looks just like I applied it. Denny
  5. You just have to make sure it's clean and mold free and all the caulking is solid. If you have to replace any of the sealant let it cure for a couple of weeks before coating the roof. Denny
  6. I used Crazy Seal/Liquid Roof a couple of years ago and I'm happy with it. No adding activator before use just mix it and apply. Denny
  7. What we are doing now with Dish is drop locals all together after a built a simple Dipole antenna for our home base where we had a hard time getting locals even with a fancy antenna. If we can't get the programs off over the air channel on the road we just stream them the next day. Shortly we are changing our Dish package to the lowest one and eventually will eliminate it all together and just stream over our two Verizon phones. Denny
  8. I've had two Banks cat back systems, first was on a 91 Ford 460 and it was amazing. The second was on a 2000 V10 and it made very little difference. Denny
  9. Looks like Dish is up and running, just signed into our Dish App as and it appears to be working normally. Denny
  10. There is no communication with Dish because of a ransomware hack, apparently Dish will not pay the ransom. To the OP I would look at streaming, we are using a Android Smart TV and it works amazingly well. We are thinking of dropping Dish altogether in the near future. Denny
  11. We can't log on to our account but we are on auto pay so everything is still working for us. I'm guessing changing our programing is out of the question. Denny
  12. First thing to do different is buy replacement material that has all the ribs already installed. Second just take a utility knife and cut the old material in half length way so it comes off easier. Clean the grove's and spray dry silicone in the channels. I take the right arm off and unwind the spring, it only takes 3 3/16 short rivets. With one other helping I can do it in about a hour start to finish. I like the Shade Pro material, I ordered it online. Denny
  13. We are close to Fortuna and I-8, sometimes we have problems streaming but not all that often. Denny
  14. Down here in Yuma 5G there is night and day difference between 5and4G. Denny
  15. Sounds like you have the wrong rear gears in your truck for the load. Denny
  16. Before you start spending a lot of $ on this do a couple of simple checks. First check the air filter, next get a spray can of carburator cleaner and clean all the linkage on top of the carb and make sure everything moved freely. The linkage from the governor should move freely, not the choke linkage that's in front of the carb but the second one past it, it controls the throttle butterfly, I'm thinking the throttle isn't returning all the way. Denny
  17. Sounds like the governor is hanging up and not allowing it to go back to unloaded throttle position. You can verify that by checking the frequency, should be around 60HZ. Denny
  18. It's on the internet so it had to be true 🤣. Modern vehicles are tuned to the max to meet gov standards so their is no way you will get 35%better mileage even if they defeat the pollution controls. Denny
  19. Look like a regular water heater would be cheaper than a tankless plus you can use it on electric when hooked up. Denny
  20. I don't know if anyone has really looked but the 120 volt wiring in a RV is solid 12-2 or 14-2 solid Romex and it's been that way for years. Denny
  21. #6 Romex is stranded wire not solid, strands are bigger than in Romex but it's still stranded and it's what is used on almost all RVs from the rec to the panel.
  22. We've been RVing for 44 years and have been through a lot of peak and down times but this is the first time we have seen so many people living in RV parks with families. The worst part is most are living in low end trailers like the one in the article and we know that after a few years what they will look like. And so many with kids with all their stuff and it's scattered everywhere along with vehicles that no longer run but that's the parks fault. Anymore we stay long term in 55+ parks (4 to 5) months or COE CG and dry camp as much as possible when going across country because of park overnight costs and lack of space. We have a residential frig and with a little bit of planning it works out without solar. I do see a lot of used RVs for sale in the future with a lot of people realizing they made a very bad financial decision, we already know one young couple with kids that were in that situation and had to go the bankruptcy route to get out from under their trailer and truck. Time will tell where it ends up. Denny
  23. When I was laying out and wiring RV parks the NEC said pedestals will be located midway or to the rear of sites but not in the back or front. I would locate them 1/3 of the way forward from the back. We always travel with a 50 amp extension cord, we are using it now because we are in a manufactured home park the the power is in near the front along with the water, sewer is way in the back so we are using all our hoses and cords 🤣. Denny
  24. Just cover the panels, no sun no juice. Denny
  25. It's running the same on propane as electric so that narrows it down to the cooling unit itself. I'm thinking that the heat exchanger is plugging up and sorry to say there is no fixing it, eventually it will start tripping off on high temp. Denny
