    has anyone used SKEETER beaters

    I'm very happy with my SkeeterBeaters for my Pleasure-Way / Ford E-350 van. I use the front van door screens all the time, part of setting up camp. I've had them for over a year-and-a-half and they still work perfectly, look and attach like brand new. No problems with them staying on during wind...

    battery monitor for older RV

    Suggestion for house battery monitor I have an 08 PW Excel and had big issues with my house battery. (ultimately found the charge controller was not connected!) but it resulted in my wanting to know the exact voltage readout on my house battery without having to put a meter on it as I dry camp...

    Questions about bathrooms(!) and wide body vans

    Hi George, I really appreciate the additional info about what a diesel can provide as far as appliances - I was truly not aware of any of that! And it provides some more support for the choice to not to rule out the diesels. My learning continues! Also thank you for the link to your van...

    Questions about bathrooms(!) and wide body vans

    Hi Everyone, Thank you all BBQ:), Bud, Avanti, Boxster1971, Phoebe3 and GeorgeRa for making sure that I don't fully discount diesels! As was mentioned I agree that sometimes the floor plan will "trump" the motor. That is what I am still open to and as I mentioned in my original post the older...

    Questions about bathrooms(!) and wide body vans

    Hi Chayelle! Thank you - you have given me so much food for thought and I LOVE that you have shared your opinions from 4 years of obviously in-depth research. As for me, I have only invested about 1 year of research so far on Class Bs (10+ years on RVs in general) but everything you've said...

    Questions about bathrooms(!) and wide body vans

    Bruceper - I appreciate you pointing out we are only talking about 8 inches. Some I look at I don't really notice the extra width, but others look pregnant to me! I'm assuming that might be due to the color. Regardless though it doesn't seem to make much difference in being able to park it where...

    Questions about bathrooms(!) and wide body vans

    Hi Mumkin, thank you so much for responding. I had read so much about the build quality of the Sunlights at Camping World, but maybe I'll take the time to see one in person just to double check to determine if that is an option. Second time in this thread I've been warned about the handling...
