Old Snipe

I have to replace my front tires this year and I'm done with Michelin tires. Despite covering them and using 303 protectant on them, they develop cracks in the sidewalls. Michelin replaced them once after three years (for customer goodwill) for half price and at year three they developed cracks again. I'm going with Toyos this time. My back tires are also Michelin and they haven't developed any cracks (yet). I replaced them at the 7 year mark. Go figure. 🤒 Best Regards!

Rule of thumb is 7 years for MH tires, Michelin site says 10 years as long as they are dismounted off the rim and inspected from the inside, annually after the seventh year. I have 22.5 tires on my MH and have replaced all of them once so far (2007 MH,DOT tire code 3406 on sidewalls, meaning manufactured the 34th week of 2006). I chose to replace the tires rather than do the annual inspections, did the two fronts first then the rears next. FMCA has a program agreement with Michelin that gives members a discount on their tires. Last year I replaced my four rear tires and received $50 off

We visited WDW in June and were sent Magic Bands to use on our stay at FW. We probably won't return until summer 2015. Will the MBs still work after we make anew reservation or will new bands be sent upon booking? Best Regards!

We're just back from our trip to WDW and are not at all impressed with the FP+. We found we had to accept "package" deals, with one good ride and usually one or even two that we had either no interest in or wondered why they would even need a FP, like Indiana Jones or Beauty and the Beast. Trying to get additional FPs at kiosks in the parks had long lines and we couldn't get any more until we used all the FPs we had already booked. What sucked was sometimes the ride we really wanted was late in the day or evening and the effectively locked us out from getting any more FPs. Often, the FPs we

We got site 1911 and fit in it just fine lengthwise, but with the slides out, we were in the bushes on one side. I went to the front desk and asked if they could trim the bushes and it was done the next day for us. Another little thing that makes us love coming to the Fort, how quickly they responded to our request. Some days, we wished we lived there all the time! :)

Thanks, All!!! I appreciate the info, once again this is the best site for the right answers, snarky and all! :rofl3: Best Regards!

Booked a FHU site back in January for June 15-21. Our annual trip with our two grandsons. Every time since 2007 I was asked for the size of my motorhome (40' with slides). When I booked, the size questiong never came up and I didn't think to tell the rep it. Do they keep a data base on frequent visitor's RVs, or was this an oversight? I'm concerned that the site reserved for me at FW might not fit my MH. I know at this time of year FW is pretty welll packed with no extra empty sites available. Thanks!

Great! Now it's going to be even harder to get a campsite... :banghead:

I would be very comfortable buying a well maintained 2001 TT. There are only a few manufacturers of certain components such as the furnace, a/c, stove, etc and all can be replaced with current units. The same goes for brakes, wheel bearings, and chassis parts. Most of the plumbing and electrical wiring and lights can be found at places like Home Depot and auto parts stores. You can source carpeting, cabinet parts and furniture easily, too. The biggest fear on a used unit is water intrusion. Small roof or window leaks can cause catastrophic damage causing rot and delamination. Carefull
