    Stupid question, which driveway do you turn into a the acorn for just parking the truck and trailer, not for fuel?

    We went in the regular Fuel Line in front of the store/ Got Fuel then went to parking lot (nobody there) took a whole row section and went and had the $9.99 Prime Rib

     

    Saw today everywhere on billboards that is now $14.99 !!!!   we squeeked By!

    I thought we checked that GFI last trip? Beautiful looking morning @Poule43. Peace

    Different trailer - other one was fine the issue was a lose common on the bus bar

    (ive told you the same thing 20X but all you do is talk over what im expecting to you - you NEVER listen!)

    the new 5th wheel had a faulty gfi. I replaced it and was able to get everything working!!!!

    I just took a longboard skateboard for a cruise down gecko 

    now - put pots and pans away!!!!

  4. Woke up to total peace and quiet after a football filled day yesterday- chasing electric gremlins in the 5th wheel which turned out to be a bad gfi in the bathroom! Pita !!! Poped on the inverter and watched Witness on dvd - heated a bfast burrito- hot cup of coffee and sat outside facing the beautiful sand dunes!

    man this is good for the soul!

    anyway - took a vacation day today to move some stuff into the 5th wheel - gonna be a long day but doing it in paradise makes it a bit easier!!!!

    gonna squeeze in a few hot laps staggered throughout the day b4 heading home

     I stuck around for 5 more years.  It was smart but I swear those last 5 years took my soul.  It took a long time to get "me" back.

    THIS is what I am talking about / I FEEL THIS BIG TIME!!!!!!  It has destroyed me from the inside out!!!

    I Know NOW and its too late.....the things that happen by staying really take there toll more than you think!

    this is the ultimate goal, open a store/shop/track complex on our own property out of state

    Do this Now instead of taking the pay cut - I made the mistake of staying and the longer you stay the harder it is to leave............

    It will NEVER be a good time to leave / Get to where you wanna be and SET UP THE Store and Track....You will NEVER look back!

    So you dumped the one with the electrical issue? Peace

    The electrical issue was just a lose common on the Bus Bar / It was NOT the gfi....... After chasing all that BS, I removed the panel / found the lose wire (lose wires cause heat / not good) .....I cleaned up the slight charing...made sure all the wire ends were not brittle...........retightened all the wires....and everything worked PERFECT. It is amazing how 1 little thing can drive you nuts!

    Did you add to the fleet or going back to 5th wheel?

     

    I have been back in a 5th wheel for 3 years now. I sold the moho during Covid. I loved it but I don't have the bank for the things that go wrong in a moho......Plus / I like having my truck for Glamis. For me the motorhome was limited for what we like to do.

    Decided that Glamis was NEVER going away in my life. I am on a very limited budget so @Pennywise took this in on trade and I thought instead of towing crazy weights up and down mountains / fighting with expensive motor homes that are complicated and limited in water capicity and are too nice to beat on out in glamis.....why not have a comfortable big 5th wheel that has a King size Bed / Large Bathroom. and capicity tanks that fit the way we camp. I can leave it in storage and tow it back and forth to where I camp ....... Keep it waxed / stocked up with Ramen and :cheers:  my bbq atc 70, a Bike to ride and a :atc70:.  When I wanna go to Glamis / Drive out....Hook up and tow to Gecko or Washes.......Done

    Plenty of room for the family without breaking the bank. I use my cargo trailer for the buggy and 3 wheelers.

    I am keeping the 5th wheel we call Cup Cake to leave at home in San Diego / It fits into RV parks and is AWESOME for the beach parking along the sea wall anytime of year...BMX Bikes in the back and enjoy the CA coast in full comfort..........I would love to have a motorhome for everything EXCEPT Glamis but cant swing it......Fornow, Its Cupcake (Small Toy Hauler 5th wheel) that we have had for 3 years at Home and the ENVY 38foot 5th wheel will be our Glamis Home hopefully for many years!  

    I have a bunch of work to do in the next 4 days But gonna enjoy (I hope) hanging with family and friends making it set up for us!

    Quad is sold. We will rebuild his confidence and try again next season. I honestly don’t mind having the extra space in the trailer. 

    somebody got a NICE TRX450 4 sure!

    :poule:

  14. Have you thought about a thumb throttle with the screw you can turn down?  Do it with him and show him how it cant go wide open and hit the massive instant power.

    Explain as he gets more comfortable / you will open it up based on his comfort.

    He will be all over it in a few trips!

    That is the quad hes gonna want!!!!
