  1. We've been doing similar for 15 years. Different toilet. I think this is inherent to a particular model.
  2. That's interesting. The "original " zamp line had a 10 amp fuse, i think. Do you have a zamp port?
  3. Doesn't matter if e1 or e2 , I think the zamp port is simply separate,,goes straight to the battery, and "should" have a 10 amp fuse. Wiring"assumes"a suitcase solar, with separate controller, for portables. What's on the roof is pretty much irrelevant. Different circuit. The zamp port goes directly to battety. Solar panels go to controller. The twain don't meet. And, yes, zamp port is wired backwards, from sae standard. once you get the fuse installed, you'll need to rewire your portable , or purchase an an adapter to reverse polarity. Only zam p (that I know of) works this way. Best of luck
  4. @Wandering Sagebrush, that sounds like outstanding coverage. Glad your friend survived. I see coachnet now covers towables, at a reasonable price, with medical evac service. https://coach-net.com/24-7-protect-roadside-assistance/
  5. Welcome back home! Safe travels!
  6. This comes up just about every year, for good reason. Some plans cover TV only, some cover both, and some have additional benefits, like replacement tire brought to the site if you don't have a spare. (Don't laugh.... a number of class c motorhomes DON'T come with a spare, just like a number of new cars. Yikes, I know, but it saves on weight, cost, etc.) We've always used one of the good sams policies. A variety to choose from. https://roadside.goodsam.com/plan-benefits?utm_source=google&utm_medium=ppc&utm_campaign=[adv:+RA]+[plt:+Google]+[fun:+Performance]+[ini:+Brand]+[tgt:+Brand]+[bil:+Direct]&campaignid=2056391751&adgroupid=76722091878&adid=597569385777&cq_cmp=2056391751&cq_con=76722091878&cq_term=good sam rv roadside&cq_plac=&cq_net=g&cq_plt=gp&gad=1&gclid=CjwKCAjwgsqoBhBNEiwAwe5w0-NWzBF9bm3ZEVfWfkO5vwDuI37ke_bEFY1mki7UNUKFlPo1Qdd37RoCkK8QAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds#pcomplete-tab
  7. This could have gone really bad. Always have a plan, and if you're the injured party, don't try to be a lone hero, and stay behind alone. https://denvergazette.com/outtherecolorado/news/hiker-with-severe-injury-left-behind-by-group-at-national-park/article_adf9f346-570e-11ee-87f6-477e8a015115.html
  8. That's exactly what we love to hear! Welcome, and we'll look forward to hearing about your travels!
  9. And, some of us don't carry folding picnic tables, nor bikes, awning screens, massive tool kits etc, etc. Some people camp a lot, in home state. Others travel a lot. Either way, what you carry depends on your own judgment. I think it's important to point out what you really should have, if you feel the need to carry a lot of gear. It's also important to recognize that some of us DON'T carry a lot, and don't "need" it, and don't need a huge truck. It all depends on our individual camping styles, and where we go. I've been super happy with my Silverado 1500 for over a decade, and it's my daily driver. But, my mom (88) now has a hard time getting into the cab, even with my smurf bars. I'm considering replacing it with an suv. (My husband's truck is way bigger, and impossible for her.) I'm watching the new , and used, offerings. I love my truck. And I can borrow an suv from my son-in-law, but that's cumbersome. I hate change, but, hey, sometimes it is what it is. Sometimes, we have to look ro the happy medium.
  10. Yes, we did.
  11. @SomeDaySoon, I'm sure you can add to the conversation on Canadian campgrounds, among other things. A lot of us truly enjoy the welcome of our northern friends and neighbors, and your beautiful Provincial and territory parks. Welcome from #12. Love your chosen screen name, but I'll probably be listening to that old Judy Collins song (that I loved) in my head for awhile....🤣
  12. Maybe check out some of the vehicles in this article, below. Honestly, many of us,want a tow vehicle that does more than just tow. https://www.roadandtrack.com/rankings/g44424091/suvs-best-towing-capacity/
  13. Snapaction mini circuit breaker, at2, 15 amp, type 2. Remote reset. Technically, not a fuse, but a circuit breaker. https://www.snapaction.net/ Not surprised NAPA didn't have one. The 07092 isn't a part number. It's the manufacturer zip code.
  14. Rereading you're post,,with edits, I'd say 90 per cent, bad gfci, and a simple repair. Best of luck. Let us know how it works out.
  15. Our gfci shorted out and had to be replaced once on a Canadian trip. If you can't reset a gfci, there is either: no power to the circuit, possibly a loose connection, a bad ground, or a bad gfci that requires replacement. Does your gfci have any indicator light on it? If you have some indicator light, then you likely have power. Please complete your profile, or at least tell us what model/year trailer, power package etc., so that others can help you better. Do open a service ticket, with complete information and a phone number so someone can help you at Oliver service.
  16. This is the way it works in our 2008. The systems are separate. And, tank fill port and city water port are separate. We typically fill the tank, and work from the tank. We rarely hook up to city water.
  17. @Skipster, little dab, without blind in place? That might just work Oliver caulked in one of our loose blinds, and I didn't know it til I tried to remove it for cleaning. I'm pretty strong for my size, but it wound up taking two of us, and a knife, to get the blind out. 🤷
  18. This makes me laugh. We have lots of t-shirts too. We have a big shelf of new ones. I sort used t-shirts at laundry time by work only, (folded really small), car wash rags (go to a bag), and "dressier" tee shirts, which get only a half fold. Work only shirts, pants, and socks go in one drawer. "Good" stuff, other drawers .
  19. I add my condolences for the loss of your mom. Couldn't happen at a worse time. We had a similar experience when my husband's father died. Grueling, mentally and emotionally. You'll be in my prayers.
  20. Well, that was a PITA. So sorry., but really glad for the persistent motorist who alerted you to the flat tire. We have the TST tpms system. Though we haven't needed the repeater, there is one available to boost the signal forward to the display unit if needed. I think a few other brands sell a booster or repeater, as well.
  21. Unexpected, and truly beautiful. Thank you.
  22. I think that's another really good soap. (Woody ultrapine) Follow directions. It's great, if not over poured.
  23. @Wandering Sagebrush, so often, the simple path can be the best. Thanks for sharing.
  24. Many, or at least some, of those "guests" may be registered members who don't bother to log in.
