Oh boy! Good luck with that and thank heavens for Dad! I wouldn't know where to start troubleshooting. Well, sorta.

I've done the village idiot thing this morning (now quit sniggering, Wayne!) Jeep all hitched up ready to go, and I got out and left it in Park. We were treated to air horns played by friends waiting behind us. Twice.

Sheesh!

I'm worried the thing is actually broken.
Ugh, I hope you get it fixed ASAP, Cindy. I can sympathize with "toilet anxiety" since our VacuFlush acted weird at high elevations in Colorado. I was so nervous that I made my hubby drive 40 miles to Walmart to buy a porta-potti. (Now our Bounder is a "bath and a half!") Thankfully, the SeaLand returned to normal when we got back to lower elevation.

Please, sir, may we join your group of mutants? We're semi-retired, with a small home-base in central FL, free of debt, proud owners of a used Flagstaff SuperLite 26' TT, and happy to be "campers" vs. "full-timers" (even tho' we set out to be the latter a couple of years ago). Our goal is to break even at the end of every month (i.e. without touching our retirement savings). To that end we've got our FL home rented 4months to snowbirds for an amount that will pay our monthly fees/rents/utilities for an entire year while we workamp for our winter campsite. We don't have a big RV or many toys - and DEFINITELY no outside TV/entertainment center. We do have the joy of discovering weird roadside attractions and telling stories over dinner/coffee/etc to all the great folks we run into at campgrounds. Do we qualify?

Kallencbt - You have demonstrated the mutant spirit of loving the RV life while not having some things and not missing them! The only other requirement is acknowledging that the Journey is the Destination. I see that as a formality and know you will return with your declaration!

We are full time Rv'ers nothing is subject to change other than change itself.
So if anyone know's how we join up please direct us to the large button, thanks.

Need more info. Another picture or something. Looks like you might roll a 55 gallon drum onto it.

According to the wear marks on the steel track the wheel only rocks back and forth a short distance. Does this have anything to do with a porch "glider"?

Cindy,

Had a similar problem with a repair a while back. Tell your dad to try dumping a pail of hot hot water into the sink and seeing if that frees up some solidified grease.

Make sure he has reconnected the hoses because (pardon the expression) if this works all hell breaks loose and quickly.
