Bought a new trailer
« Reply #29 on: August 04, 2014, 06:42:42 PM »

Real nice trailer Scally. My son looked at it and said it must belong to a millionaire  ;D ;D ;D  I said I don't think so as he can't afford the gas to tow it. He said BUMMER  :D :D
Not a millionaire just yet.. It's parked full time. The site costs enough.. Hehe

Move to Mexico, you only need to be worth $83,000 CAD or $76,000 USD to be a millionaire in Mexican Peso's.  :P

Rick..I was told if your gonna move your rv to put a couple of bag of ice in your tanks so it sloshes and cleans the inside while you are traveling..then just dump when ya get where your going. Makes sense to me with the movement and chemicals. I bought a Jayco eagle last fall and just love it, only a 32 footer tho, but perfect for me and baby.  Pam   .☆´¯`•.¸¸. ི♥ྀ.

Used to that on the other coach, found out the ice can bend sensors.

I don't buy into the ice either, but a good (and repeated) flush after the dump is very important. Our Class C has the flushing system built in.

That's exactly why I stopped doing that on mine too.

That is the method I currently use and the first one I used until I heard about the ice method, switched to it until I heard about the damage it could do and stopped doing that.

On our coach the black and gray tanks have a built in pressure rotating washer, after dumping i just hook a dedicated hose for those 2 tanks and flush for 5 mins. I use full timer blue stuff in the black tank.

Many new RVs have sensors attached to outside of tanks and read levels through using something like optic or sonar

Mine is still new to me..I'm still reading the book and need as much info as I can get. I have lots of questions that I am not finding in the book.  Pam    .☆´¯`•.¸¸. ི♥ྀ.

The other day I saw the perfect Tow Vehicle to pull your new house with.....





Don't know what the backstory on it is but it was so cool I had to take a picture

ok - I am sure someone - many of you know what this is and appreciate it. But it looks like a scary bug to me.
