Been driving mine...left Wednesday 2:30 PM from Rapid City MI, drove 2200 miles, averaged 10.00 mpg cruise control set at 65 mph, even going up the Rockies, (speed dropped a bit on the steep hills) but I was able to pass all the trucks lumbering with their flashers on...(Love the torque of that big engine), got home today before noon. 39 driving hours. tired but happy to see my wife and son and dogs but mostly my bed....

Good deal on your new purchase. Glad you trip went well. You talk of getting home to your bed? If you would of walked about 30' to your rear you would found a bed. Lol

I did the Direct Tv and Satellite thing and had to figure out the 4x4 HDMI switch.They sure don't make it easy to understand. But, mission complete.
Next I have to figure out the Freightliner computer thing like odo trip 1, trip 2 and fuel thing..

Which brings up another newbie question....
That 4x4 HDMI switch is pretty sweet - it basically serves a source signal to all 4 TVs...which got me to thinking...
We got the Winegard Trav'lr antenna as well. At present we do not have a DirecTV account (we are waiting until Goshen to see if they have any rally specials)
So, I wonder, if we hook the DirecTV receiver to the 4X4, it should serve the satellite channel to all 4 TVs...shouldn't it?

Being a Newbie myself. I purchased the Direct Tv receiver from Direct tv, since I was a customer anyway, but Direct Tv had to activate the box.
But yes, I did put Direct Tv on all of the TV's thru the HDMI switch. Then went on to try different things, like Direct tv on one, regular tv on another and DVD on another, it worked like it was suppose to. Now the question is:? will direct Tv work in other locations???? TBD later.

Added New Outside Shower Unit
Replaced the "Old" barely a "leak" of a sprayer with a new unit
Just check out that spray stream!! I will really be able to clean my grill now!!
I do believe I will replace the spray head so I have some spray choices.
Spent about $73 on the upgrade. Bought them on the internet.
I've stopped at a few camping stores, there, they were priced about $100

Can you put a link for the faucet ect. Do they sell them at lowes or can you get a adapter to fit a hose?

You can get a end drops as well but currently ShadePro does not have them in stock.
What I like about the ShadePro is you have a zipper panel you insert in the track. Then when you are ready to break camp, all we have to unzip the drop panel, put it in the storage bag and you are ready to retract the awning
