    Love the 32RLTS but not sure about towing

    We just happen to have a 2014 North Trail RTLS. And we did have a 2013 Chevy Silverado LTZ 1500 4x4, and towed the RTLS less than 10 miles, just to our home. However owning 6ea 5th Wheels we learned the given weights are almost always wrong. And since we go West to Colorado, Northern New...

    Hello Silverado Owners!

    Thanks Jim, as you know we have owned many Trucks from a Freightliner's, Chevy 3500HD's, and 2500HDs. Well this past week I ordered a 2015 Chevy Silverado, 2500 Vortec, but we will go with the 6.0 Vortec, for our use towing the new North Trail with the 2500 will be a breeze... I do miss my...

    Hello Heartlanders, I'm Lindy of Delaine and Lindy, we retired from RVing and sold the Mobile Suites, back in the spring. And really didn't think we will return. But, Delaine doesn't like to pack a suit case! About a month ago we bought a Forest River, small light weight travel trailer. We...

    Input on Mor/ryde pin box conversion requested

    I have owned the Mor/Ryde pin box and would recommend the Mor/Ryde. We have used the Standard pin box on our Mobile Suites but we also had a Trailer Saver Air ride 5h wheel hitch. If I were spending the money I would go with a Trailer Saver Air ride hitch. Happy Trails.

    Happy Days? MAYBE SO

    No RV hooked to a RV Park pedestal power source should not be used without a Surge protector... I find it hard to believe 238 volts were produced inside the BH, the power source came from a outside source.... But really sorry for all the issues..... Might be time to fix the issue, but buy a...

    This can get complicated

    We always use reservations, we only travel 250 to 300 miles daily. Our rule is out of a park around 8:00 am and into a RV park around 4:00 pm. This works for us. Since we have went West for the last 7 years (Summer time) we know just about were we want to stay.. We very seldom use Fed or...

    I have a Sears Compressor that I bought in 2005, same as above poster posted, I paid $99.00. The tires on my 5th wheel are Goodyear G114's and require 125 lbs of air. And the Sears Compressor works great. I highly recommend the Sears compressor. I have mine on the large sliding tray and a...

    TOO much brakes.

    Make sure the brakes are warm and lower the boost, and set the brake controller on 5 and move up or down. And it you change the brake shoes it will take some time for them to wear in... Good Luck............ Happy Trails....

    Duramax and 4.10's anyone?

    I have owned more than one GM 3500HD, and have a 2012 Chevy 3500HD DRW's. I really believe there is no need for the 4.10 rear gear. The 3.73 will be find and the fuel mileage is better. The Duramax will turn less RPMs. I think you will be fine... I wouldn't even consider a 4.10 rear gear...

    Power Cord and Surge Guard

    I use the same security for my power cabe that came from Camping World not a very secure system. But there is no secure system, if they want it they will take it. Most of my stays are in RV parks and in 6 years of use and about 8 month a year travel I have never had a issue. I very seldom...

    F450 Ford Duelly

    I don't and haven't owned a Ford but I'm on many sites, however from what I have read the 2011 F 450 are doing much better on fuel mileage. Keep in mind Ford downgraded the F 450, no longer have the 4.88 rear gear and the 19.5" tires are no longer available and the fuel issue was the reason...

    Tow vehicle

    Pin weight will be the issue with the 3/4 tons Trucks, have owned several Duramax's never a issue. The GM Duramax has plenty of HP, the other issues is stopping the weight. I also don't believe in gadgets to increase HP/Torq, thats a personal choice but the GM HD Trucks don't need any more...

    Said it before, will say it again!

    I never will use any gadgets, my Duramax has 397 hp and I have plenty of HP/Torq. If GM thought it needed a gadget it would be a factory install... Gadgets are just snake oil..... But if you insist on a gadget to make your Truck compete, then get you a gadget, all repair shops need more...

    What do you think?

    Its very interesting when talking to a salesman when buying a new RV. Just ask what type of RV do they own. Most or many have never owned a RV much less spent any time in one. Just ask what weight your Truck can handle, what pin weight etc. Never understood how a sale man expect to sell...
