I did it, took the 15 hour trip to Elkhart and had the MorRyde IS system installed. While I was there I also had them install their pin box. BIG difference in ride and handling. On the trip home the rig handled beautifully. I hit the end of tropical storm Ida on the way back and it did not...

Well here it is 3 years from when I picked up my BH. All in all I still would buy another. A lot of little problems but nothing major until now. After 3 camping seasons we were on our way back from Dorney Park in PA with the grandkids when my brother in law from behind me tells me that my rear...

My Chevy diesel has a "oil life" percentage caluculator built in to the DIC. I have read that it does not just keep track of the mileage but also RPM's and other driving conditions to make the calculation. What is your thoughts, 3,000......4,000......5,000 or take the advise of the DIC?

Ran across this site and thought it was a good idea..... http://www.rvparkreviews.com/

I recently purchased a swivel wheel 78 trailer & have decided not to install it on my BH since the people we ride with bought a Jeep and can now trail the bikes So it looks like I am going to take a big hit on ebay. I am going to list it in the next couple of weeks but would rather give anyone...

I am looking for some route planning software like Mapquest's. The problem with Mapquests software is that it will only do 10 stops. Also any suggestions for stops would be appreciated. We already are planning Elkhart, Mall of America, Corn Palace, Mt. Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Devils Tower, Old...

We have been thinking of taking 6 weeks out of the summer next year to do some traveling with the Gkids. You know Yellowstone, Mt. Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Devils tower, Corn palace, Wall drug.....all the tourist stuff and the USofA. I have a 3000 watt Kipor self contained generator that I been...

We went here with high hopes since Woodsall gave it a 5/5 rating. My impressions were as follows: 1. Small tight roads & sites 2. Flies & Yellow jackets-big time- I think the flies were due to them not picking up the garbage. They have one communal dump area & you drop it off when you feel...

I having been looking to upgrade my pin box and found out on another site that 5th air borne was bought and not servicing their product or answering their phone FYI

It looks like I have my brother into trading in his Cedar Creek TT for a 5th wheel. I have been emailing back and forth with Brenda J. Christ from Reichart's Camping Center. She says they will have 2-3 Bighorn's, 2-3 Big Country's and 2 North Trail's, the newest line of Travel Trailers for...

Hi Scott I was wondering if there was a way to get a diagram or drawing with measurements of the aluminum wall framing. I would like to drill a 6" hole under the front scare light for a vent and with my luck I will pick a spot right on a wall joist. Please get back to me when you can...

I was wrestling with the idea of installing a second ac unit and decided to go with a portable unit. I recevied it today. It is a Sharp 9500 BTU unit with a built in dehumidifer. I decided to go with a portable for a few reasons: 1. I do not need it all the time. 2. I did not want to lse...

Just got back from a kickoff weekend with the wife & grandkids. Over 400 rigs were in attendance. Some local dealers brought down some rigs for sale & I must say I did right by buying a Bighorn. Looked at a Durango & 2 moutaineers. Cannot compare. FYI-Mission tires on all. Anyway I found my...

I have heard a lot of talk about bumper carriers & have decided that there is not any easy way to do one on my BH. I was thinking about going with this roof top carrier for bikes & my grandkids Power wheels What are your thoughts

I was working on the rig today and went to fold out my grab handle & it came off in my hand. Turns out that the manufactuer did not drill any weep holes in the bottom for rain to escape............Duh Check your , 2 simple holes drilled in the bottom will avoid a bigger problem. See the...

I fell for all the good write ups and ordered this from CW http://www.campingworld.com/browse/skus/index.cfm?skunum=35000 Anybody using it, good or bad? I will install it this weekend if no one can say anything bad about it.

As some of you may know I installed a Xantrex 2000 watt inverter recently with a supposedly more sophisticated 3 stage charger built in as per the manufactuer.. Yadda,Yadda Yadda.......... Anyway one of my thoughts when I installed the ch/conv. was that I was now going to have 2 chargers ...

After taking the BH out of storage a couple of weeks ago I started noticing frost build up on the inside of my freezer. After trying all the mainstream repair methods, it became evident that I was going to have to do the dreaded warranty procedure. I called Dometic and was pleasently...

All this talk of tire blow outs got me. I did have a blowout with my last toyhauler on Mission tires, what a mess. As I was researching tire options I came across these Goodyear tires which seem to be made specifecally for fifth wheels & trailers. Anyone know them. If not I think I will go...

Here some pics of my latest mods. Excuse the blue tape on the back bumper hitch, I just installed a second backup camera and the silicone was not dry yet. Be nice to your signifigant other and use a paper towel under you lip to catch the drool while viewing the pics.

I got the inside parts of my Inverter installed today. It went suprisingly easy. It turns out that the whole master bedroom is one one circuit & the whole slide wall, which in my rig is the entertainment center & kitchen plugs is on another. So I disconnected those 2 and ran them into the...

Was reading my new Trailer Life and ran across an article quoting Scott in it regarding the 2007 Razor. Page 42 Kudos Scott Also a very interesting tire blowout column from a reader who is having problems with Goodyear Marathon tires. Goodyear & Fleetwood responds to the reader. Page 18

Hi Jim I will change my Avatar as you requested since it can seem "racy" to some. I also want to aplogize for using the "D' word in one of my posts, I really did not mean it as the curse word. I have always thought that it was only a curse if you put God in front of it. Just to clarify...

I am lookin to purchase a 5'ver tailgate. I was lookin for a white one to match the truck, but will go for a stainless one also. I was lookin at the Husky. Anyone have one?

I am installing my B&W hitch this weekend. I will have to readjust the height of my pin box. Does anybody know the pounds of torque I should use to reinstall?

I am currently installing my B&W hitch. I took the week off due to the weather. I got as far as drilling the 4" hole. My question is this..... This hitch gives me approx. 9-12 different height and front to rear positions. I understand that I should set it up with a minimum 6" off the rails...

Hey Scott I am REALLY liking that new sleep & store sofa system. Is there any possibility in getting one in my 2006 BH color (Palm Coast blue)???? For those of you who have not seen it yet>>>>>> http://www.flairinteriors.com/sleep/sleep.html

It was nice enough today for me to go out and install my new exterior am/fm cd player. As I was in the storage area I noticed a Romex wire not connected to anything. Upon further examination I found that it was LIVE. I traced it back and removed since it was not needed. I am so glad I found it...
