    2008 Big Country 3500 RL TV Mount

    I ended up using a basic wall type mount and attached it to the factory mount. Works great and didnt have to make any big alterations to the trailer. Ended up drilling 3 holes for the mounting brackets. Much easier than I thought it would be. Love my 39in TV!!

    Got up on to the roof and found out that the batwing antenna is broken. Pick it up and it falls right down. We decided to go with Dishnet so just gonna leave it alone for now.

    2008 Big Country 3500 RL TV Mount

    I know there are a million posts on this subject, but I am hoping for an answer from someone in a BC 3500 RL. I am getting a new LED tv and need to replace the old tv mount. Has anyone with this trailer replaced the old tv mount with a new one for a larger flat panel? Im installing a 39inch...

    Saw and tested latest trucks

    When I was a contract driver for Navistar we used to do this type of event for the dealers and their sales staff. But much much more intense. I used to love when some salesperson would climb in and tell me they knew how to drive a 13 speed Pro Star. We called these events Rodeos and a lot of the...

    Any body use a semi tractor to pull a 5th wheel

    Marv, did you have any problems insuring the Volvo since you didn't have a CDL? I find it interesting that your car insurance company would insure you driving something that size without a CDL. Thanks.

    Choosing an RV

    Our big things were counter space in the kitchen area and a king bed. I did not want a notoriously small RV bed to try and sleep on.
