    Moving The Trailer By Hand

    Thanks so much skissinger. This is very helpful. The differing fulcrum point makes sense. I have one reason I think it could be helpful. Like Handben, I have a narrow space in which to back the trailer into the garage. We have a very narrow alley, and I have to back the trailer in on a...

    Moving The Trailer By Hand

    Hi everyone. I have what I think is an ignorant question. I obviously think a dolly would be helpful, based upon comments and reviews I looked at online. But I don't understand why a dolly is helpful, over and above the existing trailer jack that comes with the trailer. I think the handle...

    Please Give Quick Advice Re Car Battery

    So sorry about this. I have a dead TV battery (my fault) and AAA is on the way. I think my battery is probably shot due to severe discharge, and also it is 5 years old. I prefer the security of a well maintained car. AAA is offering to replace the battery with a AAA branded battery. I...

    Wisconsin Here We Come! Suggestions For Trip Back To Calif...

    I have 3 AZ recommendations, all being very close to interstates: Dead Horse Ranch State Park near Cottonwood meets your criteria. It is very near Cottonwood, but doesn't feel like it. It is near a historic town Jerome which is pretty incredible, and two national monuments (Tuzigoot and...

    Fantastic Fan Fantastic Fan Troubles

    My lid never opens after a rain. I have to do the same as Smitz, toggle off and then toggle on. I thought that was the normal operation.

    Bike Rack Inside Subaru Outback

    I am pleased to have found a solution to the damage caused to my bike (on top of the car or on a hitch rack) on long drives. My husband doesn't appreciate my bike lying down and taking all of the storage space in the TV. I don't know if this will work for everyone. I have a small bike...

    Non-electric Slow Cooker

    Dear GO and AW: This is an interesting question. Wonderbag Standard Use I put a 2 quart pan in my large wonderbag, and while I think it might work for you, I don't think it would work as efficiently. My reasoning is two fold. First, there is a little air space between the pan and the bag...

    Wind-proof Your Camper Doors

    I really appreciate the thoughtful design. We were in North Dakota a couple of weeks ago - the home of wind (our friends packed up and left in the middle of the night fearful of the wind) and I thought about doing something like this. Is it crazy to worry about the strain on the door handle...

    Memory Foam Or Some Other Type Of Mattress Topper? Need Advice!

    Dear Deb and Kyle: The Froli solves our hip problems. Both mine and Keith's who has had both hips replaced. I live just a mile off of I80 if you live anywhere near Iowa City. But I will see if I can do a short video and upload a file. Honestly, that seems daunting, so don't hold me to it...

    Height Of Door Openings?

    Dear BillE: Hmmm. This seems pretty interesting. Of course Cary is the only one who would be an authority as to the build. I wonder about the two top corners fitting the raindrop design, but if you are taking out the sofas, that wouldn't be difficult. The 3 inch thickness would not be a...

    We love the Froli. It depends on your goals. Do you want a topper for softness?

    Non-electric Slow Cooker

    Dear Jean: I'm so pleased I can help. 1. Steam Monitoring - Pressure Cookers The American pressure cookers have the rattling weight on top of a steam vent. As you know, the speed of the rattle is your way of monitoring temperature. I've had three european pressure cookers, one Magafesa...

    Non-electric Slow Cooker

    Dear Deb and Kyle: Thrilled that you bring this up. We use a wonderbag and pressure cooker in the Campinn and at home. Here is an example: Steel cut oats takes about 45 minutes to cook. If I put it in a pressure cooker and bring it up to heat - just a couple of minutes on the heat, then I...

    Windows Front Window Thoughts

    I just spent some time with two couples with other brand tears in North Dakota. One had larger windows than ours, and one had no front windows. The people without windows really were impressed by ours. I think there is a greater risk of a sense of claustrophobia if there are no windows. I...

    550 / 560 Galley Hatch Lift?

    I really love the simplicity of the current hatch prop. If there was a change, I also would recommend that the gas lifts be an option, in addition to the simple hatch prop.
