Re: Newbie

Tom, Our son who bought the Born Free for us had an electric Smart Car for 3 years for going back and forth to work. I suspect we will purchase a manual transmission Honda HRV, heavier than your Smart car but it should not be much of a load for our Born Free 21'. With our initial RV, a Ford 460 base...

Born Free Spare Parts

Sometimes when a company fails some one will buy the parts inventory and become a parts supplier. Did this happen with Born Free?

Re: Newbie

Thanks Ben. We are relatively tire conscious. Our 16' Scamp has 13 inch wheels, lots of revolutions per mile. We do use tire pressure/temperature sensors on our trailer, Ginny has responsibility for monitoring the tires. We replace them on a 3 year cycle. On our Motorhome we had Michelins initially ...

Re: Newbie

We got into our Born Free last night and noticed that the cabinet doors has latches built into the edge of the cabinets. A couple are broken or missing. Does any one have a source for these latches? We have placed our motorhome in the shop for a general inspection and replacement of all fluids befor...

Re: Newbie

One of my first projects is adding shelves/or possibly drawers to the bathroom closet. Presently it looks like a hanging locker. We have no hanging apparel in our present rig. Once we moved from the Bounder to a small trailer we gave up the idea of ironed clothes and accepted the wrinkled look. Even...

Re: Newbie

Sorry if I offended anyone with the term rig. I'm a pretty serious RV traveler. We retired early to become RVers, though we had never owned or traveled in an RV. Our first RV was a Bounder on a Ford Chassis with the same Ford 460, same solid oak cabinetry. It's now been 18 years since we started our...

Newbie

We spur of the moment purchased a 1993, 21', RB Born Free on a Ford Chassis. A neighbor of our youngest son had owned it for almost two decades and we had looked at it from afar. This Saturday it came up for sale and we bought it sight unseen in about 2 hours. (The rig's in Maine and we're in Florid...
