MH Vinyl Sheet flooring replacement near St. Louis?

Any recommendations?

Does one cut the old floor out, use it as a pattern, and lay down the new floor or do you apply over the material already in place?

We have some not-so-subtle staining in...

Thanks for the pics! We just came back from a trip to SC from Missouri, spending a few nights in the rig on the way down and back. The bed does take up too much space when "up" and unless you turn on...

All due respect, that sounds like limitations in the current software, not immutable facts. Every application is a compromise, there is no free lunch and I respect the decisions made.

That is an interesting read, and a cliffhanger of a story!

What is special about this fuse in my fuse box?

I've never seen a fuse like this and I wonder if there is something special about it? It's marked 5 amps and seems to have a gold, metal case and stand twice as high as the more common plastic fuses

Anyone matched the interior color on the Compass/Gemini

Has any gotten a color match someplace for the grey-green color used on the trim in the Compass/Gemini?

I'll check with my dealer and with Thor, but I thought I'd try here first!
