`Taking a trip to Livingston from Burnsville NC.  40' 5th wheel.

Trying to find a good, free, route planner.  I cannot seem to find anything that does not involve a subscription.

Hopefully some of you beautiful, intelligent folks can help me out

Thanks

Dennis

Again I truly appreciate all the help and the positive thoughts from all of you..

Again thank you all.  Those sound like great ideas for some but they won't work for me.  My issue breathing.  I have COPD (I spent my whole life avoiding drugs, cigarettes, alcohol but now I get COPD).  Any other ideas would be wonderful.

I am so impressed with the folks here and the generosity that they show.  It is so appreciated.

I have been using pillows but it is not exactly what I need, although it works.  I was thinking of getting an adjustable bed but not sure if that will work or not.  One issue is that my side must be up and hers down.  I like the idea you mentioned but do not exactly understand how you did it (am not not much of a handyman but my lady is LOL).  Could you possibly send me a photo or a drawing of it?

I greatly appreciate your help.

We have a redwood 5th wheel that has a king size bed.  I need an adjustable bed (I need to sleep with my head elevated).  I want to know how difficult that is to change, and if there is anyone who does that type of work.

Thank you for any help.

Dennis and Rose

Ok thank you for speaking and help me/us.  I think we may go into Cleveland and go to the flea market there.

Thanks again  

Den

Thanks for all the information.  It is quite helpful and greatly appreciated.

Sorry for the title because I don't have anything to sale or trade.

I was wondering if at Escapees park if there was some type of "for sale or wanted" ads or occasional flea market?  Speaking for us we have quite a bit of things to get rid of and probably things to buy that others my want to sale.

Sorry if this is in the wrong place didn't know where to put it.

Thanks

I looked at the Escapees domicile in Texas and on page 4, 3 box down it say it.  

All the things to get a vehicle registered and a drivers license is confusing.

To register a fifth wheel you have to supply a picture.  Can that be digital or must it be printed?

Thanks for all the wonderful help you have given me

I was wondering if to get vehicle registration you had to show an actual insurance policy or are the cards with the information on it is good enough.

Thanks for any help.

Again thanks for all the help.  Now a new question.

I am not sure what a power monitor / management system is.  I have also seen the term EMS which I don't know but think it might be Electronic Monitoring System.  If so, I still do not know what it is but will do some research.

Have a wonderful day/week/month.

Of course.  I will also post photos and a review after getting it done.  Actually I will wait until I have it installed before posting a link.  Would hate to do that and find that it is not a good product.

It is portable.  It attaches outside the coach.  It folds up for travel.

Thanks everyone.  You are a brightspot in a somewhat dark place.  We are moving at a snails pace (if it had a broken arm LOL).  The rig is doing wonderfully but the issues have been with me.  I have great difficulty getting into the house due to the steps.  With my handicaps I knew it would be trouble but that I would be able to make it work.  So far it hasn't.  I have fallen twice (no serious injuries).  So I am going to have a handy-step installed, hopefully by the end of the week.  Until then I will just stay inside and relax.

Well we are finally on the road, but not without mishaps.  I'll talk about those later.

Now I have a question in two parts.

Is a water pressure gauge needed?  If so what would you suggest I get.

Is a surge protector needed (I am pretty sure it is).  If what would you suggest I get.

Thanks every one.  You have been great.

I too have an Inogen G3.  I also have a house concentrator.  When inside I use the house one (don't remember its name) but outside I use the inogen.  I have other issues also stemming from a sudden illness 5 years ago. The inogen is great, unfortunately They are also very expensive.  So are the batteries, chargers etc.  I have one large and one small battery.  They last about 6 hours.  They do plug in to the truck and charge while using them.  

To get out and about I highly recommend them.

I noticed but being new and unknown around the campfire I didn't say anything

Another newbe question:  We have a residential refrigerator that only runs on electric. On the road it is powered by batteries. Will that keep it cold and frozen.  2. Do the connections from the truck have power?

2016 Redwood 5th.  39 ft.  2019 Ram Laramie 3500 4x4 cummins diesel.

I was just reading the Charmin labels and they say that they are safe for septic systems.  Is this good enough?

Just wondering what toilet paper to use?  I understand it needs to be "RV or boat" but the prices go from high to very high.  Also, is it ok to use regular TP if the need arises.  

Like the commercial goes "we all go"

thanks

I am going to see about steps that should work.

Thank you all for the good information and advice.   You have all been friendly and kind.  Have experienced worse i other other websites.

New here and to full time.  We are just getting started.  One issue is that being handicapped (Right leg does not work much, left leg is kinda weak and I am big guy) I cannot get up the steps to the 5th wheel.  I need either shorter stairs (from stair to stair) or I need a good rail that I can lean on.  I don't need a lift.  It needs to go  up 40 in.  It must also be easy to set up and to move around.  Anyone have any ideas?  

Would love any help.  We have a couple ideas how to make something but the shops we talked to said it would be like $3500.00.  

Thanks for reading

Thank you All.  This seems to be a wonderful community.

You gave me great info and some things to think about.  I am kinda nervous about GoodSam now.  I think I will look around some more.

Again thank you for you assistance.

Hello All;

We are just beginning our journey and there is so much to do.  

I need some help.  We are thinking of getting an extended service plan on our 5th wheel.  Good Sam has one that looks pretty good.  Has anyone had any experience with this product?  Any negative dealing with Good Sam?  Also looking at insurance from them.  Again same question.  Any experience with their insurance?  

I really appreciate any advice  you good people can give me.  

Thats all for now but I am sure to be back soon and often,

Be safe and have fun.

Dennis
