    I was thinking make some sort of blocks for my fifth wheel slider so it stops where I want it and I can slide it all the way back and have enough room.

    The hammock wouldn't be a bad way to spend an afternoon on a hot day with a breeze rolling through. Better than sitting hunched over in the driver seat with a nose in a phone.

    Last summer my A/C quit me while I was under a load of eggs, the dealerships I checked with to have it fixed couldnt get the parts for a week so I justed rolled with it... I spent 2 or 3 nights sleeping under my trailer (it has skirts) in a sheet I rigged into a hammock.

    How long before people complain about having to move a lever/turn a dial for heat/AC instead of setting their climate control? Like asking why there is a red, yellow, and blue brake controls.
