======================

Anyone hauling a large TT should be limited to 65MPH. I see trailers all the time flying by me doing 70+. Seems they can't wait to get where they want to be. Problem is if they have a "blow out" they may take some innocent people with them......

Running at 65 mph on a tire that's rated at 65 mph max is not much of a safety margin. I never said I drive faster than 65. I have tires that are rated to 99 mph which provides plenty of margin. I get it that you don't like the idea of using LT tires on a trailer. I've done my research and am quite comfortable with my decision.

Hello WE RV 2,

Were still out here just haven't had much to report on, having to spend to much time at work! DW finally broke down and let me buy a backup camera from Costco. Went with a hard wired model to insure less interference. Spent the day running the cable which was not to bad until I got to the back wall. Took quite a bit of time to fish it up inside the rear wall. Hopefully will finish up with the monitor install tomorrow. Next up grade will be the progressive surge protector at which point I think we will have the 321 just the way we want it!

We're still here. Been in Palm Beach Fl since 2 February and will be here until the end of this month. First time "Full Timing" and it's been great. After the bugs are worked out the rest seems to be smooth sailing. Based on input from our forum, we traveled out of Massachusetts with no water and kept a gallon jug to flush the toilet on the road. Had enough RV antifreeze in the black tank to keep the drain from freezing. Looks like I'll have to re-winterize when we get back based on the weather they are having back home. Anyways if you have any questions ask away!

On our 321 I think it has a 2nd fan for the fridge that comes on when it heats up and makes more noise is that the way yours is,I pulled the top cover off for fridge vents and it has a piece of sheet metal that covers most of the opening for air.Don,t know the reason it,s there I think it would run cooler with out the metal what do you think

I would consult an RV Tech on the metal plate prior to removing it, if your inclined to do so. There was a recall on appliances several years ago and one of the items they installed was a metal backing plate. If I remember right, it was a fire issue, once again I may be mistaken..

[WE RV 2]

Does yours have the sheet metal on it
