Never too much truck

We went from a 6.3 L Yukon XL to a GMC 3500 with the Duramax/Allison transmission. It's a beast that relieves any concern about pulling hills and road stability. Diesel mileage isn't great, but it's...

We went with a 3500 GMC

After first pulling our Airstream with a Yukon XL with the tow package, we decided we wanted a heavier TV for increased power and stability. We went all in on a 3500 GMC Cummins diesel and have no...

Jake break

If the F 350 diesel comes with an exhaust break (our GMC 3500 did), that will save wear and tear on the transmission, no excessive downshifting!

Maps vs GPS

We use both as our truck has a navigation system installed. My husband likes to plan by using a map, then input the address of our campsite for the day into the GPS. Don't follow the crowd, do what...

We had the same noise. Took our FC back to the dealer and the tech wrapped the line with foam tape to secure it. Problem solved!

Wink Two!!

Admittedly, my husband is part polar bear, but two a/c units are indispensible in any kind of heat. When 50 amps aren't available, we can still use one, either front or back as needed. You might...

I feel as though we have dodged a bullet...our brand new 2018 27FC has been great. After putting 6,000 miles on it the only issue was the pipe noise when using the water pump. Our dealer (J.D....

We were in a small town w/o RV parks or community camping, it was getting late, plus, driving in a torrential downpour just wasn't safe, so we opted for the legendary free camping at Walmart. Now,...

Is the Mothership listening?

Noticed this little microphone above the dining area of our 27FB Flying Cloud. Am I paranoid or does it serve a purpose?

Definitely front bed, who wants to look at the back of their tow vehicle when relaxing or eating in the dining area?

A/C consideration

Unless the 25 has 2 a/c units, I'd go with the 27 (which is what we did in January). You will never regret having the double units in summer heat.

Battery production

It's not just the production of electricity that's dirty, but the manufacturing of all those batteries is extremely unfriendly to the environment.

Thumbs up Great experience!

Bought our 2018 27FB Flying Cloud there and had a wonderful experience. Marvin, our salesman, was so knowledgeable and easy to deal with. He even booked (and paid!) a campsite for our maiden voyage...

Do NOT slow down in the Sun Pass lane! Traffic is traveling at the stated highway speed, the scanners can read your pass, even if you're going 80 mph (but don't do that, either).

I have a 27FB Flying Cloud. Is this the same dinette bed size as a 26? I would think it is, but one never knows.
