had to replace the sides of the roof. Raised the roof, blocked the roof in place and removed the old rotted sides. Took the brand new ones that were purchased from manufacturer (but they couldn't find template so they sent them without drilling holes). Measured and remeasured the sides to...

This is both for PUP camping and camping with the BSA. At a recent camping trip with the PUP, I filled the water tank at the water station. I was right after a big rig and they used an inline water filter. They told me they always do and haven't had to replace the anode yet after 5 years...

I add coffee to a percolator or french press, add water and heat. I like a bit of cream and sugar as well. Seriously though; I have an old style percolator that I use (see other pictures) if I am making a pot for everyone to enjoy or going to be at the campsite for a while. I have one of...

I know a couple who tent camp and dehydrate their food before a trip that tell us because we are camping in a PUP that we aren't really camping because of all the conveniences we have. Really? Camping to me is more about the togetherness. We did the tent thing and my son and I tent camp...

Got my 2002 Forest River 725D with heated mattresses, AC, Heat, refer, stove, sink (sink and stove pull outside to use under awning), HW tank, roof rack, spare tire, Thetford cassette potti, and inside as well as outside shower in 2008 for the huge price of $1,000. Yes, you read that correctly...

I think I am uniquely qualified to answer this one. [8D] I have a 2002 Forest River 725D. It has the front storage and the floor did rot out on the corners. I believe it was due to something hitting it over the winter while in storage but it is hard to tell. Anyway. I wondered about...

Welcome from Geneva.

I guess I am a bit unusual. I do the initial setup; level, stabs, unroll the awning and the slides, electric, put it up and set the door, fill the toilet and water, etc. Then later I will put up tacky lights. Wife does the clean inside while I put the shelves/hanging baskets up for plates...

my [2C] ; Yes, always go with the 7 plug. You can purchase a 7 to 4 adapter pretty cheap at Walmart. http://www.walmart.com/ip/Hopkins-Towing-47355-7-Way-RV-Blade-to-4-Wire-Flat-Plug-In-Adapter/23017490 I have a cheaper model brake controller and had no problems until I switched it to the...

Or find a Harbor Freight and get them cheaper. http://www.harborfreight.com/magnetic-trailer-alignment-kit-69778.html

we use ours to wash dishes and the dog. One trip we were very isolated (the only ones camping in the park for the week) and I used it for showering because I could shower and dry off at the fire. Other than that, only dishes and dog. I am curious about modifying it to accept a garden hose...

Thanks. I am having a problem with my electric winch and was looking for something that would tell me how it works. I get power to the winch, but it isn't moving. We had an illness last year that prevented us from camping at all so the roof has not been raised in 1.5 years. I have...

Easy. We had been tent camping for the first time with the kids and had a pretty good time. In 2008 my old boss called and told me he was getting a divorce and moving to NC to live on a boat and needed to get rid of his camper. His wife didn't want it and suggested he sell it to me because...

So after reading the posts, I have to say that my refer was never that efficient. So what can I do? At best it holds things around 50 degrees. Not sufficient for keeping things cold. We have gone from using it to only partially cool to using it as storage and carrying coolers. So I have...

Sunlight is a great thing. I did NOT replace because I also have heated mattresses. I cleaned. To clean, use a combination of 1Part white vinegar, 1Part bleach (or 1/2part if you are worried) and 2 parts water. If doing mattresses, put out on a clean surface (I used my concrete...

sydnisamsofi I would look at replacing. Insurance is a great thing.

I wish I had taken pictures and thought about a few times. When I took it out of storage 2 years ago I noticed the front storage box had pulled away just a bit. I called the insurance company because it wasn't like that when I put it in storage. They told me I could use it for the season and...

Enjoy SP camping but they get filled quickly in OH. Pymatuning is nice except that they don't have water hookups and I usually don't fill the water tank.

In response to how do you hold them up: I use the small bungee cords. I even use them to hold up the chains. They allow for movement and stretch if necessary but keep things from dragging.

I have had fantastic luck at 1part Bleach, 1part Vinegar and 2 parts Water. This is what a dealer told me to do and it has always worked great. The only cuation is to wear a respirator because the combination does produce chlorine gas (though it is diluted by the water). Let the camper sit...
