Replaced the black tank that was ruptured when I was flushing the tank and was distracted, causing the tank to burst, holy sh##, what a pain in the @##. $925.00 later, all is as good as new.

While getting supplies to make a light for my kayak I bought a new ladder so I could reach the roof easier. Lowe's had em on sale figured why not. While in ladder aisle I ran into a guy that was buying a ladder for his new Jayco Ultralite (he talked me into ladder what I told the wife) and we stood in the aisle about 1 hr 45 min yakin about our campers and exploits.

Absolutely nothing.

I’m looking out the rear picture window in my recliner, drinking coffee and watching light come through the trees north of Boone NC

Brought it home from storage.

I decided to park on a different part of the driveway to get it a little closer to level and make things easier on the LCI hydraulic jacks. Went to auto-level and the rear jacks won't lift. I had a bunch of other stuff going on, so I had to walk away for a bit, so I retracted all. That "timed out". I did what I could, buttoned it up for the night and went to bed.

Time to start troubleshooting... I hope it's just low on ATF, but my luck's not that good, and we're trying to get out for a trip this weekend. I'm glad I still carry my Legos...

Don’t suppose you have a photo of the shade? I’ve been thinking of the same thing on some of our bright LEDs. Thanks!

Replaced the batteries in the Tire Minder 55 tire sensors and then cussed at the procedure to get them all to work.

But, it be done!

Don't know if image attached. The procedure to do this is confusing.

The shade was originally foil, but then improved to a trimmed plastic place mat from Walmart that sells for 88 cents, attached to the cabinet with velcro. The rocker switch is to the left. The over sink light bulbs were replaced with LED warm whites with the same bayonet base as the original incandescent.

My attempt to attach a photo didn't work. The instructions for doing this at FAQ don't match what is on the actual threads.

How is this done? My photo is a simple JPEG file on my desktop.

Select “go advanced” under the reply box. Then select “manage attachments” and then “choose files.” Find your file on your desktop and select “upload.” Close the window and post your reply.

I repacked the bearings a few weeks ago. Have a few miles on them now, So I jacked up each side and checked the wheel bearing tightness. I found one that felt a bit loose. tightened up the jam nut and called it good.

I also re torqued the lug nuts.

Ordered a mattress topper. I still like the mattress in our 2017 but my wife is starting to complain about it.

Here's what I ordered. I didn't want anything too thick.

Pulled 200 miles with a 20-25 mph crosswind.
Equalizer made it a whole lot easier.
