I recently discovered the ladder mounted behind the 1983 Toyota coach has been causing a problem for a longish time without being noticed.&nbsp; As the frame members it's screwed through the aluminum sheet metal skin and anchored to softened over the years every time the ladder was used it...

I thought it was more-or-less basic, common knowledge until I burned out a fuse on the coach trying to install LED bulbs to existing sockets.&nbsp; I poked around and discovered I didn't have any replacements, better get some.<br /><br /><img rel="lightbox"...

This isn't a safety issue gets much discussion, but it's a real one and probably of a lot higher probablilty than the plethora of others people spend a lot more time fretting about.&nbsp; I hit a deer last night on the road between Kerrville and my current parking location last night and it got...
