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

Our LP detector has a safety feature that keeps the LP from "flowing" if the detector is turned off. And "we did not know that" before this situation happened.

We had a similar problem last summer. After a service tech check out the problem, he discovered that we had accidentally turned off the LP detector. :oops: Unfortunately, our many efforts to re-ignite the flame really messed up the refrigerator's main circuit board, and we ended up having to replace...

We had a 24RB and our cat, Oreo, travelled with us. She has an enclosed litter box, which was placed between the toilet and the shower during the day and when we were on the road. We had a platform made to fit across the top of the rear stair well, and her litter box was placed on that platform for ...

Is it possible to buy 100% cotton sheets for the Travasak? Everywhere I have looked it appears that poly/cotton blends are the only choice. I hate the fact that almost all sheets are now 100% cotton, because they have to be ironed to be soft and smooth. Poly/Cotton sheets don't need to be ironed to...

I have to agree with Mel. The Born Free is a masterfully designed and manufactured motorcoach . . . or motorhome if you prefer. But it's not a "rig."

Happy New Year, everyone!!

My score was only 13. Guess I'm not as old as I thought.

Very clever temporary parking solution, Charlotte. I'll bet your neighbor is surprised that the attempt to banish your Born Free from your driveway didn't work. Guess the neighbor didn't realize how resourceful you are.

You're correct, this is very rare. The accident was so sad and tragic. It was especially horrible for the many people on the ground who tried to help the pilot free the snagged balloon basket. They actually watched Rosemary Phillips fall to her death.By the way, the balloon basket was not snagged on...

Could you clarify whether the rv sites you describe are in a rv park that is close to the action or whether these are sites available throgh a Leap 'n Lions sponsored event that we are unaware of. I think a lot of us would like to attend an organized Leap 'n Lions event like the previously sponsore...

It's a common mistake to call the Balloon Fiesta a "festival." But the Balloon Fiesta is a very unique hot air balloon event. Most other events don't allow spectators to be on the field during the inflation and lift offs. And the Balloon Fiesta is one of the most spectacular events you cou...

OOPS--------------I thought for sure New Mexico was in Bob Newby's region. It's like home with the wife. Wrong again! Bill Lyon is the VP for NM. George B Be sure you get the correct region and the correct hot air balloon event. The Balloon Festival is in Readington, New Jersey (www.balloonfestival...

David and Susan, The suggestion to contact the Born Free factory is good. They may also be able to keep you informed when they learn about owners who are thinking of selling. Sometimes, owners wishing to sell will call Born Free first, because they don't want to bother advertising or listing them an...

Hi Ann. Will you be sleeping on the sofabed or will you sleep on a C/O bed? We loved the ultraleather sofa and chairs in our 24RB, because it was so easy to clean. We slept on the sofabed and used a Travasak, but the ultraleather was "slippery" and the Travasak kept "crawling." S...

Would be interested in seeing the inside of this ingenious RV. It looks like it has a lot more space and features than a tear drop trailer. The owner has a great set up for his biking travels . . . driving down the road with the wind blowing in his face and hair, plus his own bed at the end of the d...

In fact, Born Free has an owner-agent recompense program in place throughout the country, Barbara. A lot of changes took place earlier this year, and since you no longer own a Born Free, perhaps that's why you aren't aware of the various sales agent offers Born Free made to us owners, Barbara.
