Had a nice, relaxing trip up to Collins Lake this weekend. The lake level was down and the weather was cool but the DW limited out on trout (as usual)! Met up with Loanshark and friends (really nice folks). Compared notes on our Lance trailers and overall had a very relaxing weekend. Truly wish we could make it to the Northern CA LAO rally in January but, due to prior commitments, we won't be able to. Did see one other Lance TC at Collins and a couple on the road on the way home.

We've been using the Good Sam GPS for over a month now. Haven't used it yet for an RV trip (not before April of this year), but we did take it with us to Atlanta, GA over Christmas. So far, we're very pleased with it. We've been configuring it for the points of interest (gas stations, restaurants, etc.) we want it to display while we're on the road. We've used the wi-fi feature to connect through my cell phone and get real-time weather reports and forecasts, which is nice. We've also used...

Thanks for your input WG on the 1100 "petite" model. I'm glad to hear it's working. I think the petite would be the best choice for any Lance TT for that freedom to boondock. What do you think about the noise level on the petite?

It will not siphon uphill. Like any siphon, it needs to be lower than liquid being siphoned. I used it with a 7 gal water container shown here when my back went out and I could not lift it. I use it all the time to empty a 55 gal drum of water into my cabin cistern in about 10 minutes. when I draw water out of the stream, I find a place that is at least level with the water and have no problems pulling it. I have also used it to siphon gasoline from my truck to a container for my lawn mower.

Yeah, the stops are installed so it should be a piece of cake thanks to your in depth descriptions and pictures! I fear I am going to have to go through and re-adjust the ball height. When I put the trailer on the ball it sags quite a bit. The WDH helps a bit and brings things level, but I think I'd like to see what effect these Stableloads will have. I'm open to readjusting the ball height if it eliminates the sag; if I can keep it level; and if it tows better (which will be wonderful--it...

We recently switched TV's. We went from a more than adequate 2000 Lincoln Navigator with a self-leveling rear-end (air bags) which towed our 1575 easily straight and true to a more than adequate new-to-us 2009 Chevy Silverado 1500 Extended Cab LTZ (V8, 5.3L, factory tow package, integrated brake controller, ...). *Here is the thread on our TV switch - http://lanceowners.hoop.la/top...ed-to-a-new-to-us-tv While the truck is much more than adequate to handle our small, skinny, & light 1575...

So...I finished programming the 120EZ. I tuned it to El Paso County, Colorado, where we live. I set it to give warnings for high winds, violent storms, tornadoes, flash floods, fires, and wild fires since we get plenty of those. I turned off the alerts for coastal storms, hurricanes, and coastal tide warnings since I haven't seen many of those in Colorado. I opted for the three minute voice warning, which is preceded by 8 seconds of alert tone. Doug is right, the alert tone is rather loud. I...

You bet WG. Yeah, it is just annoying after just 4 or 5 checks on a known tank level. Not fun. Not even close to precise. Hit-and-miss. Just frustrating. I can see this thing in a year or 2 now - I'll find it in the garage with a dead battery. I'm sprinting back to the good old hot water down the side of the tank with a quick feel and you always know the LP level method.

Just had a positive experience on the back yard bbq tank (20 lb.). The bbq was off. I did not have a hand on the tank. There were no lights on anywhere around (all of my previous tests were in the garage with lights on or outside with lights on nearby). This time I cleaned the probe end with a wet paper towel & did not dry it off. I then immediately checked the tank. The results were pretty positive although with 3 missed/flashing readings. The LP level is right below the weld on the...

I'm back with 6.2 pounds of LP and the tank is as full as is possible. Once again, bbq is off, no hand on the tank, wet probe end, & no lights on. 3 readings with 4 misfires/flashing. Also used the hot water method which gave the precise level. The device doesn't work once you get off of a flat surface (90 degrees) as you can see below where the tank tapers at the top.
