Let me start of by saying that I am in no way affiliated with Hitches & Things and do not stand to make $.01 from any sales of this item. I did pay for the design fees for this custom made hitch so that the LOA community could buy a Lance hitch cover. I purchased this from Trevor who is the owner and operator. Per his website, "Hitches & Things is based out of Chehalis, WA. It is a company owned and operated by a disabled veteran who is proud to support a variety of charities across...

I just received my TST Wide Screen color monitor yesterday and got it up and running on the bench. Wow! The display is real nice with larger digits and added color. However, I do have a few issues I'd like to report. The new monitor is now powered by a 5 volt mini plug just like what one uses for their smart phone (Android, not Apple). This presents a challenge as I had the previous 12 volt monochrome monitor's power cord hard wired into the overhead console in my Tundra which was a nice...

Scale is essentially a ruler which shows distance on the map that correlates with distance on the ground. Thanks for the link. I will check it out. Bruce Yes, Garmins show map scale. In map view, it's usually in the upper right or lower left. I don't have the same model Garmin as Mike, but I've had three Garmins in the last 10...

Maybe it's a Mars vs. Venus thing. And if you are unsure which planet you are from, there is a button on the display that reverses the view, like looking in a mirror (or not). See which view you are most comfy with.

You could also get the EDGE CTS $$$$. It comes, as an option, a back up camera. It'll let you know what your engine is doing and a back up camera to boot.

Watched someone set one up at a softball tournament we attended last summer in Virginia, and I was impressed. Then I watched them take it down.... They were probably doing something wrong, but I sure wish I'd had a video camera. There's little doubt I could have made serious money on AFV!

The camera is magnetic. When hitching, I put it on the tailgate of the truck, and it makes backing up for hitching a snap. When backing the TT, I move the camera to the rear bumper of the TT, and it gives me a full view of everything behind the TT. Using the camera, I often get the TT out of...

The PC rally is open to anyone who is interested, regardless of ownership or type of RV or membership in any group. Some don't even have a camper. The Princess Craft owners just love TCs and thus the TC oriented rally. Last year, we ended up with about a dozen LOA members there. It is a party with lots of other brand and size campers there. One of the events is 'open house' afternoon where owners allow groups to view their mods and camper layouts. It's almost worth going just for that,...

Jim, I fully understand your view point. But can I assume you use some 'Black Tank' treatment like most of us? We also try too use a minimal amount of water in the bowl, just enough to create a water block to fumes in the tank escaping. Well Poop- Pourri acts as a secondary barrier to control fumes, even with a minimal amount of water and in as much a Very Small amount of Poop Pourri! It's a double down on Black Tank odors! Or a Win-Win odor fighter!! Happy Campers BobnRobin

2 months ago yesterday we bought a new-to-us truck/TV - A 2009 Chevy Silverado 1500 Extended Cab LTZ (V8, 5.3L, integrated brake controller, factory backup camera, integrated TPMS, remote start, ...), etc ... http://lanceowners.hoop.la/top...ed-to-a-new-to-us-tv I then bought a bed mat - http://lanceowners.hoop.la/top...9#550326589916257509 So last week I asked my fellow LOA'ers about 5th wheel boxes/chests. As it so happened JamesHB is the ONLY LOA'er who actually has one -...
