Born Free Leap'n Lions RV Club Info & Discussion Forum

My 2009 24 rear bath has a net under a door (toward rear of MH) on driver side for storing the sewer hose. It is a terrible arrangement as the net has stretched & it is a major effort to prevent the hose from dropping below the closed door. Since this model has the new bumper, it won't hold a PV...

This is a rather basic topic, but does anyone have a magic formula for avoiding odor from the black holding tank? 1. Powder vs liquid? 2. Does doubling the recommended amount of powder or liquid help? 3. Any particular brand favorite? 4. What is recommended maximum time between dumpings (assuming ta...

It is a Tappan Model #TC1050B

Thanks we will try that. I like both suggestions but where we boon dock, there aren't many bakeries.

My wife finds the instructions included for the convection oven as close to worthless and finds the operation of this oven extremely difficult to figure out. In fact we haven't figured it out. For example, how do you bake a cake? Has anyone found simple instructions on the internet anywhere?

Not being an expert in this area, should I be concerned about the tires or valve stems which came standard with my 2009 Born Free?

These are the color coded stem caps which turn from green to red when the tire pressure falls below a certain amount.

However, I have heard that they can leak and cause a problem.

Any thoughts? If they work properly, certainly is an easy way to monitor tire pressure.

Not realizing the implication, I had special double sixes Model #U2200 house batteries installed. At delivery I discovered they were too heavy & tall to accommodate a slide out drawer. Obviously this makes the water fill process untenable. I was told of a device permanently installed to the batt...

Just took delivery of 2009 24 rear bath. Sales staff was great.

Great suggestions. Thanks.

Please keep them coming. I plan on keeping this Born Free a long time.

Just curious if anyone has experienced the "If I had it to do over, I would have had Born Free install __________ or I would have changed ________ or any thing else you would have done before it is manufactured?" I still have time to make some changes to the order, so I would appreciate an...

I don't believe anyone responded to the Eckert's question re the impact of solar panels on battery maintenance. Should one do anything different while motor home is in storage? Also, when should one turn off the battery master switch when hooked up to electricity while actively travelling - i.e, is ...

What if you store your RV in a place without electricity - thus a trickle charge unit cannot be used. I suppose the only answer is to remove the batteries.

Hope this question isn't too elementary. Since you are supposed to measure tire pressure when the tires are cold, do you simply determine the number of additional pounds cold, then add those same # of pounds when you drive to a gas station when the tires are no longer cold and show a different press...

I don't recall the name but what about the valve caps that are set for a fixed pressure and show the color green when all is well and the color turns red when the tires are underinflated? Any one have an opinion on these?

I accessed the Search option and typed in my key words - in this case - "Holding Tank" and I got make 170 posts that had nothing to do with holding tanks.

What am I doing wrong?
