    Hi Howie, my wife and I are looking to buy a 2005 Safari that's located in Egg Harbor. We live in Florida, so we're trying to find someone to inspect it for us before we make a trip up there. Do you happen to know anyone near there that could do it? Thanks for your time, and we love the mailbox!

    Howie,
    Got a question..I recently started storing my trailer in a building with electricity. Should the use/store switch be in the use position during storage?

    Howie,
    I am looking into buying an airstream. I live in Hillsborough and one is up for sale around the corner from me. It is a 1993 Excella 25 ft for $10,000. Was wondering if you could do an inspection for me?

    Howie,
    I towed my 19' with a full size E-150 Ford van. It had a lot of miles on it when I bought the 25'. I replaced the van with a Ford Expedition. I never had any issues with campgrounds since the van was not equipped for camping. I see no difference between the Sprinter and a custom van equipped for camping. I suppose it is up to the individual campground to make a decision about having two camping units.

    Finally as a follow up on the problem. It was the Thrace magnets on my trailer that needed replacing. All is good now!

    Howie,

    I need some advice on my trailer brakes. I had to replace my plug assembly at the Ford dealer after returning from Alumalina because of some message on dash about bad trailer wiring . Ford said it was the plug and replaced it. I had an opportunity to pull the trailer and the factory controller had to be adjusted to full power to just get the brakes to slightly engage. Took truck back to ford and they said voltage output was at proper levels. I then pulled another trailer and system worked fine. I went back to Airstream trailer and still had very little brakes when at max output. What would you suggest? Could it be that brakes need adjusting or something wrong with trailer plug?
