I stand by my closed propane tank policy, while traveling. I've owned RV's for over thirty years. Never once did I travel with my tanks open. That's insane, as I see it. If you're on the road with...

I'd put a 90° el at the inlet, and run my hose and filter horizontally, bracing it where necessary, until it was away from the heat source.

I have the same sink. It's garbage, just like the faucet that is attached to it. Try to get it covered, even though you're a few months out of the front to back warranty. A good dealer will be your...

Water was gushing out of the relief valve? Assuming you know the open from closed position, simply replace the valve. It's bad. Very easy procedure. Just make sure the water heater is off, the water...

Looks like I can get this for $2700, delivered and installed. I'm tempted, although I'm still getting prices on lumber and a metal roof. I prefer to build the shelter, myself, but I'm still mulling...

Looks like a metal RV port is going to be expensive.

I have searched around, online, and have found that I'll be shelling out about four G's for a major installation. When I look at the construction, I'm having a hard time feeling like that, too,...

No, not 4x4. I needed the higher towing capacity of the rear-wheel drive. I haul 12K with it, at times. It hates the mud, though.
