Not all bad with HH
On the bright side: on this trip we stayed with multiple HH, a few BW, some state parks, BLM, and a couple of RV parks.
Our last HH (combo junkyard/brewery) was great fun, a very odd place, and...

Most expensive ever
We use a combination of state parks, BLM land, Boondockers, and HH.
Our last stay at HH was the most expensive night we’ve ever had. It was a wonderful day, a beautiful shady lawn, with nice...

Where our mice came in
In our 2015 24.1 I found a board pushed aside on the rear drivers side cabinet along the back wall above the bed, and lots of mouse evidence a few years ago. After digging around a bit, I found a...

We take a motorcycle and bike
Having gone through a similar thought process, we have a Suzuki Burgman 200 on the hitch and a tandem bicycle that fits inside if we take the motorcycle, or on the hitch if we don’t. The Suzuki with...

Indeed. I would only note (as an owner of an Illinois EZPass, even though we are from WA), if it works for you, that’s all that matters. In my opinion, if $ 20 / month is an issue, don’t own a...

If you just walked in, you wouldn't really see anything. The left side of the RV dropped a bit wrt the chassis, so for example, you couldn't release the emergency break because it was up under the...

Interesting thread. We are also at 4 years with our 24.1. On the one hand, at 28k miles, it has been an absolute joy for us. Most of our mods involved handicapped access and room for a service dog....

Well I for one really appreciate this post and the responses. Every time I go up the ladder I feel like I'm stepping on tin foil. I'm glad Pops is OK, but seeing the details of the failure is...

Horse stall mats
I went through 2 sets of plastic levelers - they broke if the surface below wasn't perfectly flat (why do you think I needed levelers in the first place?).
Someone suggested horse stall mats -...

What exactly is the difference between LT & C
We are near doing a very long trip, and the original Michelins of our 2015 Vegas 24.1 (E 350) are beginning to show some cracking. I would love to get a higher weight limit tire - and Michelin...

how would you tell what has been done?
So this always makes me curious. We bought our Vegas 24.1 2015 used. It badly needed a front end alignment, but after that was done it handles almost as well as our car. Trucks make no difference,...

Fixed running tail pipe
After checking both the suspension and the exhaust mounts, we simply had the tail pipe bent down a little bit to stop the rubbing. That was about 4000 miles ago, and it hasn't returned, so it appears...

And remember to watch for tree branches
We weren't paying enough attention last year - a road with lots of clearance, but a low-hanging branch that took out one of our cab lights. A cheap and easy fix, but I now pay much more attention...
