You can remove the restrictor inside the tip of the faucet -back to normal pressure.

Yeah, doesn't help. It seems they make these things with very small diameter hoses.
I really need to find a way to increase the whole house pressure.

Yep, noise sucks! That said, again, the permanent loss of the overhead cold air outlet would just be a deal breaker.
Noise level is actually tolerable now if I close the overhead vent, but if it's really hot outside, it gets hot inside with that closed.
I still think the design is a miss due to the closing of the overhead outlet

We bought the BEAST (our 37PA) a new toad to drag around. It is a 2020 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk. And the Beast loves it.

J-Tech Digital HDMI HD base extender.
We remodeled, and replaced the couch, added televator, a new HDTV behind that couch.
The cable tv line was easy by tapping onto the outlet for the outside tv. The problem is the satellite Wally connection. Running a long HDMI cable from above the driver, to the new televator on the passenger side was a problem.
Hopefully, this extender, using flat RG 6 will provide 4K quality, that distance

For our new to us 2005 Wanderlodge, giving me starting points for future maintenance.
- Oil Change with two filters
- Fumoto oil plug #205 -for easy future oil changes
- Coolant change
- two new fuel filters
- engine air filter
- genset oil change w filter - very easy compared to an Onan
- genset fuel filter - same, very easy compared to Onan
- genset air filter
- genset coolant
- air governor
- air dryer
- Webasto fuel filter
- hydraulic oil and filter change
- chassis lube
- 4-led bulbs for the side docking lights - I don't think they will do anything except help to find the coach in the pitch dark.
Still needed:
- Allison transynd and filter change this week
- Bendix air system filter
- drain and replace rear axle fluid with synthetic
- TPMS - haven't decided which one yet.
- VMSpc from the Alpine or purchase a BlueFire
That should cover it most of it....whew! Patty is working on the inside...not keeping track there. Quite a bit lined up from new linens for a king bed, bath hardware, lighting fixtures and puck lights.
Just doing the R and R for her, to her liking!

A great way to start with your new to you rig! I did the same a couple years ago.
Good luck with it. Would love to see a few pics. It’s a great rig.

What was the last thing you bought for your RV ?
Wow! Great find. Have to buy at the Foretravel and Newell level to get that kind of quality today

Wow, where to begin and I'll probably leave something out. All these things since last outing in November '19. When you can't go anywhere, you find things to do, like shopping on line and working on the MH. Being a retired mechanic, I do all my work. And I'm pretty good at figuring things out.
Helwig front and rear sway bars
Oxygenics shower head
Ladder mount for chairs
Bumper mount for sewer tote
Cyclone roof vent for black tank
Vent cap for grey tank
Collapsible 12.5' ladder
Oil filter and oil
Blind spot mirror attachments
Outside entry light (solar powered, as seen on TV)
Ceiling vent inside screen
Range hood/vent (same as 2020 Leprechaun, it's slimmer)
Blue-ray DVD player
Slide seals (not installed yet)
Outer reflective windshield cover
Bathroom replacement skylight dome (on order)
Will be ordering awning sun shade when we get to CG in Kentucky
Not recent, but last September in Kentucky:
Tire minder
RV GPS
Thomas Payne recliners
Fresh water and flush out hoses
Camper shaped Cat Carrier
And a lot of misc items.
Camping World in Bowling Green had 30% off including sale prices. Went in to spend $50, and left $1200 poorer. Didn't know about discount before going. Right place at right time and we had planned on replacing Jack Knife with recliners anyway.
I won't go into what I bought, replaced and added right after we bought the MH in March 2019.
Be safe, Ron

New taps for bathroom and second vanity. Brushed nickel to replace gold taps that are giving me some slight problems.
Wife picked out the two handle model as she liked them better.
New small Ninestars automatic garbage can for front. Fits perfectly.
