USMC,
Well, I went thru the same thing. I need my 22.5 inch Michelins at 100 psi ++, and I have found that a 12 volt compressor (any brand) just won't do it. I got a "truck rated" compressor, 150...

The sad thing is we seem to expect or accept poor quality from the manufacturer. Can you imagine if my new Jeep or Ford F-150 was built to these quality levels? It is a sad situation where quality...

I have a Miramar 34.2, which I bought new in early 2017. My thinking was: If slideouts tend to be a problem, why not just have one big one. Hopefully that will be less problems. ...

Kspell,
My sympathies. Been there on the "put a screw thru the wire". They seem to like doing that. The problem, of course, is finding exactly where the short is. Get a good RV mechanic and...

So, when you walk into an RV dealer and say "I am interested in buying a motorhome", and the salesman says "are you good with tools"??
