    Clarification Read your post again. You were stranded at a Mountain Lodge with two dead batteries. How did you get home? I am only 68 and sometimes my memory fails me.

    Need a fridge...anyone parting out a mid 80's Hilo?

    Electrical wires in the HiLo. DH says many things in the HiLo are on one circuit. Cheaper to use a lesser gague wire with longer runs. How did you get out of your cabin with every thing being dead? Kind of left us hanging off a cliff with out the conclusion of the problem.

    Need a fridge...anyone parting out a mid 80's Hilo?

    Refrigerator Some look to the boating world to see what they offer. If you end up replacing your ref. Keep the shelves,drawer and freezer door and hinge parts. Iwouldn't get rid of it just yet as the propane works on it.

    Trailering with Fridge on 110 vs 12V

    Refrigerator thoughts I have a cooler that keeps food cold for five days with ice. I have frozen water in empty milk or juice jugs. When it is thawed out I am left with cold filtered water. See what you can buy from the boating supplies. Dometic portable refs. are not cheap.

    Trailering with Fridge on 110 vs 12V

    Refrigerator on while traveling. I have never done this. All my food comes out of my home refrigerator.Some of my food is frozen. I use some ice packs. Dry ice is an option. I have traveled two hrs. and the food remains cold/frozen. The key is to raise the HiLo up and put the ref. on electric...

    2007 23C Rebuild

    Replacing roof. I was going to send you a PM. This is a great winter project. What type of roof are you going to put on? I was going to hire one of the companies that does permanent RV roofs. I was quoted $7.000. MY 26ft.Classic is only worth $6.000. I just might have to rent a heated storage...

    Trailering with Fridge on 110 vs 12V

    Refrigerator on while traveling. RV appliances are expensive. I only replace mine when they are dead. Perhaps when mine bites the dust I will just replace the Amish cooling unit. If I replace with the same model I learned to save ref. parts from the old one. Some look to the boating suppliers...

    WDH and Sway Bars - Are They Needed?

    sway bars The short answer YES!! When we had our 1990 25ft. Classic I followed behind DH in my car. It swayed causing many a motorist to pass us. Then our dealer let us know sway bars had become available for our brand of hitch. No more sway. Now we use sway bars on our 1996 26ft. Classic. If...

    Interesting post on the correct names for the parts. My user name..Smeraldo, Ann and Melissa. First letter of each name SAM.In this forum is a lengthy document on how to make cables and how to change them out. I wouldn't change them out unless absolutely frayed or broken.

    Trip to the Southwest in My 2206t

DD bought a $20.00 Owl necklace. We are fortunate to use DD's Autism discount at State Parks. Camping is half price. Years...

    Toilet chemicals

    Years ago I used liquid chemicals for the toilet. I prefer the drop ins. I realize the outer coating has to be able to dissolve. We go camping every month for at least a week. I should be able to use up a big pack from May to Sept.
