    Gray water question

    Funny, I was coming on to ask a question about what to do when on a site with sewer. We are getting our used TT next week, so have no experience yet. My question was, do I leave my black water tank open while hooked up, I thought not, because there would not be enough water flow to take solids...

    What camera is good for back of TT?

    I have a 2005 Jeep for towing, removed the original radio and installed a Sony "head unit" as they are now called. On the menu was the choice for backup rear camera. If your "head unit" has that option, the rear camera needs to be rewired slightly, it needs to be powered on full time, not off...

    Walkie Talkies can be very useful

    Funny you posted this, will be receiving a couple of GMRS units tomorrow. Went on FCC site over weekend to get license, that part of the site is down until tomorrow. My wife can walk MUCH farther than I can, and a couple of the places we camped at last year up in the Adirondcaks and VT have no...

    Can I ask what camera you have?

    What camera is good for back of TT?

    Yes, Amazon has options, but good luck figuring out what people think is good. I saw one review of a product which got 5 stars from a woman, she gushed for a couple of sentences about it. Then said she wasn't sure exactly how the product was because someone threw it away before it was used!

    What camera is good for back of TT?

    We've bought a 22' TT, and I'd like to get a rear view camera for the trailer, without going into several hundreds of bucks. Any recommendations, or warnings?

    Need a circuit?

    Needed a switched circuit in my Jeep, but not easy to find what wire out of fuses goes where. Found out they make this handy gizmo. Remove a fuse, plug this in. put the fuse you removed in the slot closest to the plug end, and the new fuse behind it, to protect the pigtail shown. Even comes...

    What is your favorite meal at Denny's or any other non-Fast Food chain?

    Last time I went to Denny's was about 10 yrs ago, we had just landed in Albany on Sunday morning and went in. watched while a busboy put one of those grey bussing buckets on the table and picked up plates etc., left. Manager then sat us at that booth, I looked down at the BIG slime puddle left...

    Camp chairs

    Has anyone come across a good recliner type, other than the zero gravity ones? The footrest on those drive me nuts, I'm tall enough that when I stretch out the lower bar is behind my ankles. That and it seems that none of them have a good lock to keep in the reclined position.

    Questions about propane refill at a truck stop

    If I get an out of date tank, I then use one of the companies that swap tanks, let them get it re-certified.

    Harvest Hosts / Boondockers Welcome

    We've just bought a 22' hybrid, haven't had it on the road yet. Because of this, on faccebook I got an ad for boondockers welcome, gotta love the big brother feel of the internet. I like the idea of staying somewhere other than a large campground, at least if I'm looking for a stopoff point on...

    Do you trust campground water?

    I agree that bottled water is tap water in many cases. City I grew up in now has a fancy bottled water factory, just using the city water supply. I remember reading years ago that there was a big lack in any standards for bottled water, not sure if it's the same now. And the waste of throwing...
