Re: Good Sam RV GPS
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...

Re: 2014 Pismo Beach Rally - 4/3/2014 - 4/8/2014
Hi Engunir, The rally will probably only have Lance owners and anyone else who is interested in Lance are always welcome to stop by or camp with us! We don't have any vendors scheduled, but they're always welcome. Our knowledge base is pretty experienced, so if you or any attendees have any questions we are always there to answer any questions. To date, we have a whale watching trip planned and then there are always wine tasting trips, potluck dinners and such. We also plan on driving at...

Torklift lower Stable Loads
I won a set of lower Stable Loads from Torklift and am sharing insight as to my experience so far. I received them through the Golden Ticket contest. Let me begin by saying prior to the Stable Loads I already added air bags, a sway bar and...

Re: Torklift lower Stable Loads
Stableloads lowers changed my rig from a swaying, white knuckle ride, to a stable easy to drive camper. I was able to drop the airbag pressure from 50ish to 25ish, which combined with the engaged overload spring, made a big difference.

Re: Princess Craft Truck Camper Rally, April 6-9, 2017
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,...

Re: Torklift Lower StableLoads on a 2009 Chevy Silverado 1500 towing a Lance 1575
A final wrap-up - Towed up and over Donner Pass (7,000+') today with the rig completely loaded (including our 5th wheel chest full of 3 cases of H2O, half a case of ale, generator, gas, etc.... Rock solid! For our truck and TT lower StableLoads are perfect! Here are a few shots taken at the Gold Run rest area near Colfax, CA on I-80 (The Love's semi dwarfs our rig, ha) -

Re: Torklift Lower StableLoads on a 2009 Chevy Silverado 1500 towing a Lance 1575
Forgot to mention - Last week's trip had us towing with a heavy truck bed (load of firewood, 1 case of SNPA, 2 cases of water, & a generator that I gave to my Dad who then put it in his SUV to take to his house) to the cg and then an empty truck bed home. The rig towed exactly the same with the truck bed loaded and unloaded.

Torklift Lower StableLoads on a 2009 Chevy Silverado 1500 towing a Lance 1575
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...
