What is the super magnets, and where do you buy them. My shower has a latch on the outside, but if you are in the shower and not completely level the door wants to open all the time. Would love to here a solution.

Ditched the Trac Vision and added Winegard Trav'ler.
At this point, still plotting and scheming .
For those who hail the macerator, tell me more. This coach had one and is wired for it but original owner said he ditched it since it was 'too much trouble.' DW likes to use those Charmin wet wipe thingy's and I figured they would choke a macerator.

Buy a lidded trashcan for the wipes. They should never be flushed anyway!

Thanks Lori, Cliff was in a different frame of mind when he was in our coach so I would be careful with his advice!

For me it would be the Banks Power pack and Trans command. The extra power is incredible. After that it would be the 3 cameras for driving/backing up.
