    So when you go camping in your RV do you never use the toilet and only use public facilities?

    On balancing, long time ago I had an older 5th wheel camper with those funny looking rims that no one in my area had a machine to balance. So when they put new tires I asked to ad about 6 oz of brake fluid. Ride very smooth like newer before 22k miles later all 6 looks perfect. Sold it with same tires 5 years later.

    Went up to the store earlier and had a few Unicorns out in the field by me.


    Been baiting them with skittles.

    Bow season opens up on Wednesday but I’m thinking of takin a few down tomorrow morning.

    My land My Unicorns.

    Problem is with those if you don’t immediately cut their head off the meat gets a Really Fruity taste to it .
     
    Casimir66 and dwells40 Thank this.

    If you have this style plug in your truck or RV, I suggest changing it out.

    To this style - Smart plug. Far better contact surface and connection.

    I went ahead and ran a 30A breaker to 10AWG to a hardwired box to the lead - to the plug , to eliminate any other weaknesses.

    Draws 21A running the block heater, battery tender and 1500W space heater.
