Tire Pressures

If I divide the rear axle by four it would put the tire pressures at 65 or less.

The inflation chart for Goodyear shows single or dual pressures by axle I think, not the corner weights.

You shouldn't worry so much about the size of the tank.

Doesn't matter if it's a 35, 45, or a 55 gallon, when it gets between 1/4 and 1/2, look for a gas station.

Safe Travels and Have Fun.

I haven't done anything yet, it happened a week ago.

Mine wasn't what you call "heavily oxidized" but the detailers used "Soft Scrub" to remove it before polishing.

Propane or Electric

I'm sure if the switch is on AUTO---your refrigerator will run on Electric when plugged in or on generator!

Happy Camping and Stay Safe!

Technically---your electrician is correct! It is a 220 volt plug, but your RV only uses 110 volts at a time, drawing from each 110-volt leg. This allows you to run both A/C's at the same time.

Where are you located in Florida?

North Brevard RV in Mims, Fl has a vacuum machine that detects leaks. Worth a try if you are still having a problem.
