    DIY oil change on DP

    What do you use to raise the rear of the coach before putting the stands under it?

    DIY oil change on DP

    I considered making something like this. Do you see any issue with putting just one of the dually tires on the ramps? I never was able to find heavy duty dual tire plastic ramps online.

    DIY oil change on DP

    For those who do their own oil changes, what are you using to lift the rear end for access?

    Running Generator/Cruise Control

    I have to admit I'm stumped. I'm also not convinced the generator has anything to do with it.

    Buying or renting the RV

    C25 and C30 appear to be the codes used by Cruise America for their 25 and 30 ft rentals (I had to google it).

    Running Generator/Cruise Control

    Does the CC kick off only when the generator starts or is it disabled whenever the generator is running?

    Black tank mysteriously filling

    More than once I've run around the house looking for my hat that was on my head while running late for work. Glad you worked it out.

    State-by-State Gun Laws

    I personally use toad to describe a car towed by a MH but the point was to open up an "oil thread" jokingly.

    Black tank mysteriously filling

    If I understand you right, the 2nd black tank is filled from the rear toilet, rear sink and outside sink. There are only 4 ways (in theory) that water can get into this tank. One of the sources above or the rear black tank flush. Since you didn't connect to the rear flush, it must be one of...

    NEED HELP!

    I had a GMC truck that had a separate fuse for trailer lights. I didn't know that was a "thing" until then. I had a trailer that blew that fuse from day one. What is your tow vehicle? What worked/didn't work before you touched it? No offense, but it's usually the last thing worked on.

    What tools do you bring?

    If you have a 2 axle trailer, you can make a mini "ramp" from a 6x6. You pull the good wheel onto the ramp until the bad wheel is off the ground. It's lighter than a heavy duty jack and can double as a stabilizer block. I carry a Harbor Freight tool kit. Yes, you get what you pay for, but...

    Diesel vs gas

    @Gary RV_Wizard already mentioned it but 1hp per 100 lb is about right. The max gross for my MH is 26k lbs and we tow a 4k-ish car. Our actual weight on a scale is 23,000 lb, so we have just under 30k lb going down the road with a 300 hp engine. We've never had an issue merging onto a 70 mph...

    OJ died today

    Remember him how you want. There are interviews with multiple jurors (all online) where the jurors admit they know he did it and voted to acquit for payback for Rodney King and to stick it to the LAPD.

    For robbery, yes. He got away clean with a double murder.
