RE: Military Campgrounds

Actually I think MOH winners are admitted to any of the campgrounds.

RE: Remote measurement of fridge and freezer temperatures

FWIW the ones in my fridge and freezer have been in use several months easy and still going strong. But they are just to use while in the trailer, not with a phone or networked. I love 'em. No idea what brand, prolly just a cheap no-name from China.

RE: Military Campgrounds

I had heard the same thing late last year, but with no corroborating evidence, I decided it was just so much rumor passed off as truth. Nobody seems to do any fact checking any more.

RE: Remote measurement of fridge and freezer temperatures

How remote are talking about? Just with the doors closed in the trailer? Or if you gone from the trailer and want to check it?

RE: Military Campgrounds

This seems to be very common any more: misinformation passed along by people who supposedly know better. From what I've seen, many of the RV newsletters and online RV advice columns are written by anyone who contributes. I doubt if there is any vetting happening now. To paraphrase a president: "Doubt, and verify". :)

RE: Thoughts on a plug-in hybrid conversion

JMO, but even at the present price of fuel, I can buy a lot of it for $7,000-$10,000. JMO of course.

RE: Fifth wheel Jerking with gas truck... not as noticeable

That's a new one on me. I don't have a clue, since it has happened with all the trucks.

RE: Should be simple WiFi question, but???

You should be able to select which frequency you want to use in the router settings. I know mine works that way, I can select either 2.4 or 5.

RE: Should be simple WiFi question, but???

My thought would be to check the router and see what channel the tablet is using, and adjust accordingly.

RE: One of the few Australian manufacrurers of 5vers

Don't mean to argue, too much, but white cars show dirt quickly, dark cars not so much. Surfaces are going to collect dirt, color doesn't make any difference, just in how much the dirt is noticed. JMO anyway. We'll just have to agree to disagree. :)
I am going to have to agree to disagree with you also. My car and last three trucks were white and they could get VERY dirty before it was noticed. That is one of the reasons I pick white when getting a new vehicle. One of the worst vehicles I ever had for showing dirt was a black sports car. Had to wash it every day and follow that with a light polish. While I loved the car, it was a pain in keester to keep clean!
BarneyWell, you guys are all in good company. Peggy also agrees that white is harder to keep clean than dark. I may have to wave the white flag and admit defeat. :)

RE: One of the few Australian manufacrurers of 5vers

While I do like the bright look of the white walls, how in the heck do you keep white walls from looking dingy in a very short time. We rarely, if ever, travel over gravel/dirt roads, and our interior still gets dusty and dirty. You'd constantly be wiping down those white walls and ceiling to keep them from looking dirty. Looks good, but seems to me to not be practical in a real world environment, especially if you do travel on dusty roads a lot. Which you do cite as being a frequent occurrence.

RE: How common are fold-up vs "standard" sinks in wet baths?

I honestly can't say that I've ever seen one in a modern motorhome. Maybe in the little ones, with fewer frills, but IMO they send the "cheap" message.

I think a foldup sink would be most common in the low-wall popup campers. TBH I've not seen one in years.

RE: Incredibly Rude People

Seems its the times we live in nowadays. Rude and disrespectful is the way to be for some. The golden rule no longer applies.Nah, not any different. The golden rule still applies: "He who has the gold, makes the rules". "Same as it always was." There's just too many people. Way too many people.

RE: One of the few Australian manufacrurers of 5vers

Not being critical, but just clarifying that it looks like plenty of windows, when it's just two small ones, but the interior shot makes those windows look huge. And that looks like a lot more than 25" because of the depth of field, they all do it.
Smaller, fewer windows make sense if the heat is severe. I noticed no roof AC, would they use a heat pump?

"Plenty of windows"? I count 4 small ones, and none in the rear. Depth of field can work wonders, looks huge for 25'. :)

RE: No more training wheels

It's just your idea of prudent, and my idea of prudent are many, many dollars apart. If they were the same price, I would likely consider an air ride hitch. But I sold my last Companion, and bought the one I have now from a guy, and I spent a total of about $100 difference. The B&W does a great job, and I'd buy another one in a heartbeat. It's top quality equipment, it's just a couple thousand dollars less. :)
