    Sam, I keep doing searches for your post of 1990 Classic HiLo Restoration and I can't find it. Dh is going to repair one of our walls. He ripped out all that was bad today. He needs to have this done in a couple days. Sigh... Under what heading is it? Or do you have the exact address so...

    1994 Towlite Demolition/Rebuild

    So? Did you get it done and go camping? We have a 1994 Towlite 24 ft and just today dh ripped into the whole right side. Our wood was not nearly as bad as yours, but there were some rotten ones. I want to make sure it doesn't happen again, and am thinking about gluing on some extra...

    Welder, I'm not that knowledgeable about these things, but must say that we bought a 1995 or 1996? -can't remember 24-ft Towlite and we were able to get everything we needed for it, no prob. We did take it to J & R which is not too far from us. They did take forever, were not good about...

    Help Us Choose A Vehicle

    Seriously? Sway bars are only $25? We saw someone at a campground and he said $200 - $300 I think. Anyways, we had some relatives give us some but haven't used them yet. Our camper is parked in our yard and we're just about ready to move into it for the entire summer while our house is being...

    Help Us Choose A Vehicle

    Raamw, Yes, we did buy a 2000 Yukon, that is mechanically excellent, but does have a little rust. Gotta love all the room and towing our camper was absolutely no prob. Except for the fact that we did not have sway bars and it did sway back and forth at anything over 65mph. But we've...

    Caulking Brands You Like

    I've seen in a couple places that some of you like clear Dap brand Silicone (which I like for other things) --however, it's not paintable. They do make a paintable silicone that I've used in my house, but have found it to shrink. Anyone use this? Also our used camper we bought last year was...

    Help Us Choose A Vehicle

    Thanks everyone, We spent the entire day shopping for vehicles. Had them all written up/mapped out. We called the first dealer as we were leaving the house and then when we got there, they told us that unbeknownst to the guy we talked to, it sold. Man, it was over an hour away. In the end...

    Help Us Choose A Vehicle

    We checked out the first Suburban today - 1999 with 190 K, and it was rather dirty inside and reeked of cigarette smoke. Sigh. I should have asked before we went and checked. It rode nicely though, and I loved all the room inside and how the seats fold down. We're looking at a Suburban, a...
