RE: This is our RV electric future. It's the future man!
No one has ever said that EV's are the answer to all needs. The ICE and Diesel will never dissappear in our lifetimes no matter how muck the greenies want them to. It took 40 years for the ICE to replace the horse, the change to EV's will not come any quicker. Nothing to debate folks.

Brakes grabbing
Today while cruising along about 60 mph, I suddenly felt the trailer jerk once, pretty hard, about 1/4 mile later another jerk, not so bad. Then everything felt fine for about another mile or so an the engine bogged down, then everything was fine. ten miles later we hit a red light and the brakes worked fine, but SMOKE from the right side or the trailer wheels. Pulled into an Autozone lot across the street.
I used a thermometer to check if the problem was one brake or all. All four brakes were about 195 to 210 f.
We waited about twenty minutes, pulled forward and it seemed as if the brakes were free. Went about six blocks and felt rhe brakes grabbing again when not applied. Stopped again for about twenty minutes and found a nearby campground less than rwo miles away. We drove there without a problem, but what do we do next? We are in Ft Stockton Tx. No RV shop nearby.

RE: Please recommend me camp rigs
I don't have any idea what you are asking about.
Maybe use complete sentences, and paragraphs.
Recent grad? Google it.

RE: Sumo Springs on my Toy Hauler
Sounds like $500 wasted to me. The hard jounce when the Sumos meet the frame will be hard on the trailer frame.
Sumo springs on a truck sound equally bad.

RE: Ford 6.7 with spun connecting rod bearing
They are ripping you off big time.
I hope you got a written estimate before you OKed the work. If so contact the state AG, by letter.
They have you over a barrel for sure.

RE: Tundra vs. Silverado question
I think the payload capacity of the Tundra is less than the Chevy.
Also check the rear axel ratio.
Tundra's are thirsty beasts.

RE: Honda Ridgeline hauling a Forrest River 201 BHXL
You THINK the trailer weighs #5000? Thats the empty weight. No propane, no batteries, no gear.
Thats the tow capacity of the Ridgeline.
You will be overloaded leaving the lot.
Can you do it? Sure. Should you do it? Since you asked, I think not.

RE: Newbie Tow Capacity Question
First off, are you sure the towing capacity of your 2015 PU is 7200? Seems high with a V6

RE: Holiday Rambler 2006 shower plumbing leak
Your going to have to open up whatever you need for access to see what parts you need.
Every plumbing project requires 3 trips to Lowes.

RE: MotorTrend F150 Lightning Tow Test
No different than the horsepower wars. Somebody started it now eveybody has to have more. More HP, more towing capacity.
As long as someone is willing to pay for more, whether they ever use it or not, they will sell them more.
Bragging rights are priceless to some folks.

RE: Cirrus 820 mounted on GMC
Measure first then you will know. Get the actual height of the door and camper.
Or...If you get going fast enough, it will fit.

RE: Best security cameras for travel trailer?
This doesn't answer your question but: the only thing a security camera is good for is to give you a poor picture of whoever took your stuff.
