Thanks brother! I think I might remove that top shelf and put one of the bottom shelves (that I removed) directly overtop of the combo. That way nothing falls behind it. Then I can put that top shelf back in...but that's for another day! I'm already home watching football and enjoying some Tito's to nurse my wounds!

That’s what I did with mine. Enjoy the Tito’s! I’m starting on some Crown! Cheers

Mmm.. lets see......i had a company wash and wax it, but found out someone cut off the catalytic converter first. Then aired out the awning to dry up the wash water and forgot it was open, stricking the arms with heavy pine boughs and near removed the awning. $$$$$$$$$ very expensive day!

Bought a Progressive Industries EMS-HW50C off ebay.
Should be here by Friday this week. Won't get it installed for a few months. Winter sucks.

Danno, you're becoming a real bad infulence!!! I've been contemplating something just like that. I've got the water and drain already in my Northpoint, but the dryer vent is where I was having issues. I'm not venting it out the side of my trailer, so how did you do it?
BTW, nice find!! No mod can be done without a little bloodshed. Remember my drum to disc conversion last year?? Lol!

Tom, good minds think alike. I've been in my heated garage all day doing an oil change, wash, claybar, and wax to DW's car and putting down some Crown Caramel. Lol!

I found the combo unit one day while going thru my wife's Facebook checking up on my sister's and seeing the pics of my nieces and nephews (I don't have an account). I had been checking Craigslist for over a year and on a whim I clicked on the "market place" in my wife's Facebook act and did a search (this was the 1st time I did this). Low and behold the ventless unit appeared and had been posted the day before. So I sent a message to see if it was still available. He was asking $400, but I offered $200 and he accepted. I had to drive 45 mins out in rural area NE of Dallas to pick it up, which wasn't a bother for me. I was originally looking for the vented unit, but couldn't pass up the price...and I DIDN'T have to drill a hole in the side of my North Point! Just keep checking! It took me well over a year to find one and if you find one make them show you that it works before you complete transaction.

Visited the rig in the RV yard...checked tire pressures and battery charges and moved it a bit to sit on a different part of the tires. Anything to enjoy the 78* weather!

Must be nice. We almost made it to freezing today. I did get to go by our trailer a couple of times when we were plowing snow however.

Brrr. My sympathies. A sailing buddy called me from the lake and said folks were out with their shirts off. (Just guys I think ).

I've spent the last two days digging out also. The trailer is all tucked away in inside storage though!

I went over to grab my camp chair, do a storage check, and look for one of my son's missing toys. On the way out to the excursion where I was using the camp chair (a dove hunt), I stopped at a newly installed fuel station in town to top off before the trip, and discovered they have non-ethanol at all the pumps!! I just about jumped up and down and threw a party right there at the pump!! I've been hunting non-ethanol close enough for me to actually buy for YEARS!! Now I just have to figure out a way to burn all the corn-gas in my camper and my boat so I can fill it with the good stuff!! Oh well, probably just treat what I have one last time, then start filling them there after I get a chance to burn all the treated corn-gas I have...

Around here the non ethanol blend is actually called RV gas but it is EXPENSIVE. I filled up 5 gas cans back in December with it and it cost me $75. I use it in my lawnmower, snowblower, etc... everything runs MUCH better with it.

It's been SUPER difficult to find non-ethanol fuel locally. Nearest station was about 45 minutes one-way with little/no traffic, and in an area where traffic gets super bad.

I don't use much lawn equipment any more (we have lawn service, and it's cheaper than buying all the stuff I need to do the job myself), but when I did need fuel for a saw or whatnot, I had to use the canned stuff you can get at home improvement stores; now THAT's expensive! But it worked well. My small engine equipment never ran better, and it typically started A LOT easier after I started using canned pre-mix fuel.

Pricing: Regular unleaded (87) was $1.999/gal, and non-ethanol was 2.549/gal. Unfortunately this station is located on the interstate, so the prices are a little higher. But the big thing is they actually HAVE it. I only intend to use it to fill my MH immediately before it's stored (trick will be to roll into town with as little remaining fuel as possible), and for my boat all the time. Trouble is they both have 50-gallon tanks...

I treat my ethanol laced fuel for my boat, lawn equipment etc with this. Everything runs better now. https://www.campingworld.com/star-br...%2020%25-40%25
