Nathan, a couple of turns to increase the spring tension should help keep the awning against the coach when traveling.

As for pricing, Lazy Days shows a msrp price which we know is always subject to discussion. Looking at the Coach House Platinum web site they show prices ranging from $129,900.00 to $189,900.00 so it looks like quality has its price whether we like it or not.

I have used the Toad Charge unit for many years with no problems. I chose to use an available connection on the Bargman connector to eliminate a second connection to the car. http://www.lslproducts.net/ToadChargePage.html

According to the Born Free website the cost is for a coach and two people. It would seem logical that considering all the shows etc. that the cost for a coach and one person should be less. A call to Born Free would confirm the pricing.

Ray, per my picture I attached the two bungy cords high enough on the coach to put some upward pull to compensate for the additional weight of the exhaust stack. This has worked out well over the years.

Ray, like John we have used the Gen-Turi on our last 4 coaches and have been very pleased with the system. I have at times ran the generator for 2 - 5 hours steady and could still put my hand on the exhaust stack, a good safety feature. As I already had an assist bar next to the drivers door I insta...

Mike, I agree with you regarding the time it took for hot water to reach the kitchen sink. In our 26RB we learned a long time ago, for washing the dishes, to heat the amount of hot water needed on the stove which saved both on the fresh water and the amount going into the gray water holding tank.
