    1976 hi lo

    Really,really look at the walls and roof. My roof had leaked, left wall was delaminated and J & R say my Hi-Lo and quoted me $6,500.00 to repair. I don't care how nice they are built, but to put that kind of money into a 1996 like I had, no thanks.

    Miles per gallon thread.

    I have noticed that many of the people posting their miles per gallon have stated driving 65 and 70 miles per hour. Isn't that against the law in most states? I know on our most recent trip, to the West Coast, posted speed for vehicles towing a trailer, in California for example, is 55 miles per...

    previous owner should be ashamed of himself

    Roof Everone needs to look at their roofs very closely. What I thought was actually bird droppings, road grime, spots, etc. on our 1996 22' Hi-Lo was actually perforation. The roof leaked and then we finally got hit with another haild storm and that was all she wrote. Roof and left wall is...

    Good-bye Hi-Lo

    Well, after a 5,000 mile trip, out to the West Coast, that was cut short by tornadoes to our home in Ballwin (St. Louis) Missouri, on our way home, we hit quite a hail storm.

    Tank Gauges Don't work

    Bob, You are so correct. One would think that after 45 years of married bliss, I would know better. Another question then. We are currently in Texas where it got a little warm today and the fan just keeps running and running. Kind of like the Energizer Bunny. Temp is set at #4, freezer is full...

    Tank Gauges Don't work

    Wonder is the wires on the tanks theirself are connected tightly. Also, here is a dumb question. My wife and I have a dispute. On our Dometic American refrigerator. We usually have our temp set at #4. If we want it colder, do we turn the selector to a higher number or a lower number? I feel that...
