Thanks for writing back! We are trying to keep our cost down, yet have some extra room which a 5th wheel offers. These mods that you mention, are they expensive - obviously I want to hit the dealer...

I have access to a volt meter so I'll check that at. The CO detector is fed by a black & white wire. I'm assuming the 12 volts should be on the black wire.

Thanks for your help.

Propane Tanks - Confussed

Hello Gang,

This may seem like a dumb question, but it's just not making sense to us. We bought a new Jayco 308RETS two years ago. Both tanks went empty last season. I just had one of the tanks...

Hey Gang,

We purchased a brand new 2012 Jayco 308RETS which the dealer delivered to our seasonal site 2 years ago. Now we are changing campgrounds and I have to move our TT.
