Battery question

Hi, I was wondering what people do with their batteries in the winter. The temperatures will get below freezing, most of the winter. Should I remove it from the camper and bring it into the garage? ...

Passport 239ml wintering

Hello. Our last camper did not have a working water pump, so I would add antifreeze with a hand pump through the city water connection. Now that we have a working pump, I plan on using that. Trouble...

Any chance you could post a picture of what the cold air dump looks like and how you taped it? I would like to try this as well. Thank you!

700 lbs. That’s quite a bit less than all the estimates people throw out. Will be interesting to see what the scales say. Have a great time camping!

That sounds like a good idea, but what about retracting it in heavy rain? It seems that everyone recommends retracting it, rather than just having a good pitch and leaving it out.

We started with a popup, upgraded to a hybrid, which we used for 11 years. Now we upgraded to a travel trailer. I can tell you that the hybrids are great, and we have buyers remorse, we really miss...

No no, the point is to simply see if there is an alternative out there. Definitely no arrogance on the part of my family. I should have been more specific in my original post, that I’m simply looking...

For those that gave a recommendation, thank you! Given the redeeming qualities of my family, which is to say they put up with me, I am going to try the trash can route.

Bathroom wipes

Ok, probably an odd topic. Wife and kids use flushable wipes for certain, um, sanitation after using the facilities. These are not good for the rv septic system, they don’t break down, and have...

Power awning question

Our previous camper had a manual awning. I used stabilizers which prevented it from flapping around too much. Lasted 12 years before succumbing to uv damage. Left it out in wind and rain. We now...

Thanks for checking. I ended up placing 1 inch styrofoam and it pretty much took care of the problem. In the fall I’m going to bring it in for repair. Not a big deal, but it seems like keystone has...

That’s good info. So how long does that putty last? It’s sandwiched between the frame and window, would you just seal over it?

While we are on the topic, I noticed that the windows were sealed with what looks like butyl tape, while everything else is presumably silicone. Anyone know why they use that on the windows?

Black tank flush

Hello,
We are new to having the holding tank flush option. Is it necessary to use a separate hose or do people just use their drinking water hose? Might be a dumb question, but thought I’d ask. I...

Exhaust fan

We have a 239ml. After our first outing I realized the bathroom fan is tiny and useless. Is it difficult to install a higher power fan? The dealer wants over 300 to put an upgrade in. Thanks
