52, DH is 50. We just traded in our Palomino 829vfks for a Cougar 33RES. Still towing with our 2011 F-150 EcoBoost with max tow package. We've had no problems with the truck, but I don't think we will go any heavier without upgrading!

Just added some beefy front and rear anti-sway bars to compliment the rear track bar and Safe T Plus put on a year ago. Also had the engine Dyno'd increasing both horsepower and torque. Well worth the expense.

New JVC USB/MP3/IPod in-dash with remote to replace the older in-dash stereo in the outside compartment. Most likely won't use it much but all my music for the camper is in MP3 format and the old in-dash was only AM/FM/CD.

Sorry Judy. I wasn't keeping up with my irv2. Here's pics of led lighting
The leds are programmable with the remote to any color under the rainbow and also dim and perform scenes (fading blinking etc)

And also the sidebar bar for anyone interested

A new piece of safety equipment if you consider the DW's happiness as a personal safety item for me... A new vacuum cleaner put a big smile on her face 😊.

Can you send pics of how the panels hook to your battery? A voltmeter would confirm if they were working or not. 100 watt panel for 2 hours would not charge a "dead" battery....it would take longer than that. When you say "had no juice" how were you measuring that ?

A new residential style refrigerator.
RV Refrigerator Replacement

And while we had the copilot seat out to get the new refrigerator in, we had the seat recovered (the front edge had dis-integrated ...either bad leather or damage from hands grabbing it when entering the coach) ...the guy did a super job matching the material and the original style!!

Tire pressure monitoring system. After a lot of research and hunting, we had narrowed down our choices and went with what the Wheeling It folks use:

You did good only having to pull a seat out, we had to remove the windshield to get our Samsung Refer in.
