Thanks for the reply. This genny does not have multiple outlets, it's just the one cord coming out.

With that being said, your last suggestion of doing it permanently, does that just require a...

Sorry, I should have explained that better. We bought a 5th wheel Toyhauler to see if we like it better then the Mororhome and the original genny was bad. We put the Polaris in the front compartment...

I have 2, my champion that is cheap and a great genny runs all day in the heat powering the AC. I figured if it blew up it was easy to replace. After 3 years it still runs like new.

As long as you covered the basics, no worn parts, tires good, and alignment correct.... I don't think the stabilizer mask anything. With my Tru-Center you can pretty much take your hands off the...

I think either way you go, the higher end steering stabilizers make a huge difference.

If the wind is strong enough you will obviously never get rid of the top heavy feel. But before I spent the...

Upgrades for handling

Does it have air bags? I never felt the need to upgrade shocks. Unless it was a furious crosswind I could eliminate the sway by increasing air in the bags.

I think the single best upgrade I ever...

No marks so far. On the side you can't see I cut the sidewall completely off, this allows them to fit over skylights. I only leave them up for a day or 2 when a storm rolls through. Even if they did...

Ugly but effective Hail protection!

I trek up ladders everyday so it was actually pretty simple. One in each hand, only took 5 minutes to put them on and take them off.

I used an extension ladder so I didn't have to climb straight...

CO Detector Problem

30 bucks for a detector with a digital read out. You can get them at Walmart. Every camper should have one, that way there is no guessing. You can actually see the number and know if your in danger...

Good to hear it's running!

If it was me, and i rely a lot on my genny, I would add a fuel filter and fuel pump to your spare parts box.

I had the same problem, it's a little messy but you can take the fuel line off and check the pressure. When mine went out there was barely a trickle coming out. The fuel pump and filter are pretty...

Aren't the 350 wheel covers held on by a nut? One of the chrome lug nut covers should have indentations on it indicating which one has to be removed. After that they just fall off, no tool necessary.

It's actually not bad at all. The trailer follows right behind the camper when turning so it's not like a 5th wheel where you need to allow a little extra room. We towed a 16' V-nose enclosed trailer...
