    Black tank 'burp'

    I just emptied my black yesterday when it burped. This is what I always do. However, it is still burping. Any ideas on why?

    Cell Phone

    Avoid AT&T I do know that we have had lousy coverage with AT&T. While in San Jose (east side) we were standing directly under one of their billboards with no service! I am switching to Verizon in October bases on what others have recommended.

    Fresh Water Tank Cleaning from RV Travel

    I agree that you don't need to let it sit for 12 hours. Also, there is no need to initially drain all the water unless it has been in there for a long time. Just add the bleach solution and fill the tank.

    Slow drain in shower

    I did a search but can't find an answer on this forum. Our shower recently has become very slow draining. We leave the gray tank valve open all the time when parked for extended periods. What is safe to use to unstop the drain? Could it just be a buildup of soap in the pipe?

    LP Detector/12 volt lamps

    Problem solved OK. Steve figured it out. Last night we had a power surge which caused the two 12 volt bulbs in the LR lamp to burn out which also blew the fuse in the circuit box labeled 'rear ac.' The two good bulbs were feeding the false reading to the LP sensor and setting the alarm off...

    Proud owners of a 2008 3055

    Just got the 3055! Well, we took possession yesterday of our brand-spanking new 3055. Steve did a fabulous job at hitching up the first time. But, oh, what an ordeal when we got to our house to back into our driveway, which has a steep slope. Yikes! He back it in onto some 2x4s to level it...

    USAA Insurance We have USAA insurance and they are very reasonable. When we start fulltiming (and sell our house and have a small storage unit), they have a very affordable 'renters insurance' that will cover our personal contents in the fifth wheel and in the storage unit. I believe it is only...
