Re: Vista 19ERD

Absolutely true.
I purchased in 2009, a new Jetta TDI (prior to my new RV passion). At 26,000 miles it died on the road. Luckily it was under the 36,000 mi warranty and I had it towed to the...

Re: 2011 Gulf Breeze Sport

That is odd.
Were you in a park connected to AC, or running the fridge on propane? Is the fridge on auto or gas?

Re: Vista 19ERD

When boondocking, I use mostly my 100w solar panel to keep the battery charged. We bought it on Amazon and works great: https://www.amazon.com/Renogy-Foldable-S ... s=renology...

Re: Vista 19ERD

Re: Gulf Stream Visa

Welcome!
We almost bought a Vista 19RBS, but being my first TT I was scared of buying too large for just the two of us, and didn't want anything too heavy that my 6 cyl couldn't handle. So we ended...

Water Pump still noisy after installing supression kit

I purchased and installed a water pump noise suppression kit, but the extremely loud pump "growl" is the same. Didn't want to spend extra $ and install an after market if the one that came with my...

Re: Gulf Stream Visa

Hi Robert,
Not sure if you have seen any of my posts, but I have a 2 month old 2015 17RWD for just the Mrs and I.

No haggling, no issues. Would use them again even though it's a...
