What did you get for your Motorhome today?

[crazeevw]

Each and every time I'm up on the roof, I keep looking at that old tv antenna. Haven't even had a tv inside of the AS yet, but I really don't like the appearance.

Found this on pplmotorhomes.com, much better price than my usual Amazon and eBay finds. Who knew?

Installation this weekend, heading to see Raveson and his new Motorhome purchase tomorrow!

Thanks, Derek

Hi Jonathan, the weather is getting pretty nice. We had about the wettest March ever but hopefully that is all over.


As for the garage I bought it used from a guy locally. His dad sold his coach and no longer needed it. I have the ends for it also but didn't feel the need to put them up. I'm back in the trees so it's pretty well shielded from the wind and direct sun. There is no tag on the cover, there may be on one of the end pieces but they are folded up back in the storage shed and I have never unfolded them so I don't know who made it.

Airstreamsupply.com has the vents and other goodies. They have some Motorhome parts as well...

[MarshallSF]

Would love to know what your power draw is on the full sound system. I've been calculating battery bank runtimes for BM and audio gear is looking like a huge part of my daily amp hour budget.

[SebasSF]

Hi Marshall, I think amp hour sounds about right I'm not sure, but it depends a lot on volume obviously. Perhaps you can help me work it out...

[MarshallSF]

Nothing like some live testing with good music, friends, and a multimeter.

1985 345 got a new owner.

Good luck Hank on your 800 mile trip home

Simply because every project I start, I discover another needed repair....

Will replace P-traps in kitchen, bath and shower and NEVER have to worry about winterizing p-traps ever again

Ok,

So I met up with Raveson a few weeks ago, purchased some odds and ends from his now sold 89 Airstream Classic 345LE. As well, used his contact in South Florida to make the last 20 aluminum rain channels for the windows.

When he had to replace his fuel hose, he could only buy a 4 foot section, but only needed 2 feet, I got the remaining 2 feet.

Raveson and his wife both had custom embroidered Airstream shirts done, of course, now that Raveson has a Prevost, no need for Airstream clothing, so he threw those in as well.

And all I need to do is find one more front axle Centramatic and I'll have all 3 axles complete.

So,

Been holding off on posting this, I'm camping at Fort DeSoto County Park over July 4th. Since I have a feeling that fireworks are not allowed in the Park, I decided that I'd try these Chinese Sky Lanterns instead.

I'll have a waterfront campsite, so these will be perfect. I'll try and post over my camping trip what these look like.

Thanks, Derek

Random bits and pieces. LED Conversions, space heaters, air circulators, picnic assists, air hose addition, and some random stuff.
