My Net Buddy works great and I am on my third month. Once I was not able to get internet, although I had bars. A couple of times it got very laggy, but otherwise has been solid. This is from a stationary location. When I am on the road, if I get bars, I had gotten really good internet. I can get...

Hmmm, thanks. Maybe I need to take the shell, which I like, and put it on a more substantial trailer. What I do not want to do is haul a large trailer. I just want a little extra storage and did not want to put it on the roof.

Don't know if the ones they sell now are the ones you are referring to or not. They are definitely inexpensive ($200-$400 range). I bought a motorcycle/mini trailer for $250 or so and am still assembling it. My main concern is that it says you are not supposed to go over 55 mph while towing...

I am looking at attending this year. I need to work during the day, so I will probably be set up near a cell tower during the day. Can move around after work. I will probably try and get at least one week off during this time though. I have a Toyota Highlander Hybrid and it seems to have solved...

How long does it take to set up the tent and can you do it solo?

At long last I have a job that allows me to work anywhere, as long as I have access to the internet. I plan to head into higher bandwidth areas during the day and then push out at night, while exploring on the weekend. I intend to use mobile internet (cellular) tech to make it work. Just waiting...

Good to know as I was thinking about venturing out that way as NM has an annual camping pass for non-residents, making it cheaper to camp in NM state parks than AZ state parks.

Wrong conclusion. Most RV manufacturers in the country are not including them not because they are not effective, but because most units are not destined for very low humidity locations, which as you have pointed out is where they are effective. Me, I don't care that they don't work in most of...

Watch Bob's videos and think about joining the circuit as people move around. Best way to meet people on this forum, I would think. What kind of setup are you using?

So, I have been looking at various videos and wondering if I can "car camp" as I saw in a few videos. I was convinced that a electricity addict like me, who was tethered to electricity the 11 out of 12 days on my last RV vacation, could do without the AC, music, fans, etc. and so I decided to go...

I have a new Highlander Hybrid on order and I intend to use it like a bigger Prius camper (because I am a bigger camper). I have been watching a lot of videos trying to get a list of items to add (but not too much) and if this turns out to be an epic fail I will go back to upgrading my class C...

Good question. I will have to look in my manual to see where the indicator is. The RV is in the shop at the moment. Given that the unit is a 2014 and had about 24,000 miles on it before I bought it, I would have thought that it had already been broken in, but as I think about it, I have probably...

I have a Thor motorhome with an on-board, propane-powered Onan generator and I was looking for tips on how to quiet the noise and vibration of it. Are their mufflers available (DIY or after-market)? Are there shock pads or some such to reduce feeling the vibration when inside the coach? Any...

One Amazon reviewer for the Renogy lithium batteries said that they were just branded versions of these EWT batteries. https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/EWT-26650-lithium-ion-battery-12v_60675185044.html?spm=a2700.7724857.normalList.69.45ba7a94YSypMi At $900 versus $475, if these truly are...

I wanted to get all of my ducks lined up before answering anyone. I appreciate all of the answers. So now I have to confess. This really isn't so much for those in the know, but for those people that are newer to RVing and did not get a proper education that included things like the proper...

Well, the RV was built in 2014 and the chassis in 2013. The tires were from 2013, so I have no reason not to believe the house batteries are from 2014 and the car battery from 2013 as it does not appear that anything on this was replace by the previous owner. So, I put a charger on the house...

Yeah, I feel stupid for not asking. I was so focused on going on the trip it could well be that he did not want to tell me that I should not be going on the trip because I did not prepare adequately. As for the generator, it appears to use the house batteries as its starter, not the car battery...

I bought a used RV last year and before the big trip last month I took it into the shop to have it checked over and have the water pump replaced. Before that we found that the RV, although it looked fine, it did seem to be a little worse for wear. (All the tires had to be replaced as they were...

At 20-25 mph, it might be hard to get it down the road. Looks cool though. Needs more head room for me to consider it.  :)

Canine, good to hear that some mechanics will let you stay on their property while your vehicle is being repaired. Not having had any vehicle towed from a break down, good to know that they can tow that much all at once. Bullfrog, thanks for the information on the insurance policy. I will have...
