The installation of "chimney" fans would help considerably. Yes, the inside-box temps will go up with the outside air temperature, but keeping (even the hot) air flowing over the finned coils in the rear of the box will help a lot.

There are hundreds of threads both in the RV section here at FTE, and various RV-only forums where you can get good information.

Here's a couple of photos of what I did:

You guys ever have a set of tires that seemed to pick up punctures more than usual? I have in the past, and I might have a set now. We've only had this Fusion for 4 months and it has already picked up a screw in one tire, and a nail in another.

The tires I had on my '62 picked up a lot of screws & nails, but a lot of that could have been the operating environment since I used it for my dump runs.

Can Bryant and Howard play as a team?

Fans are going to be expecting a title.

I think it can work, especially with Nash distributing the ball. The biggest question to me is can Coach Brown pull it all together. He's gonna have to do a lot more than just roll the ***** out at practice.

Morning SoCal,

I've got a busy day today...

Selling the Ex and have to get a potential buyer some additional photos he is asking for...the Ex is up on the FTE classifieds if anyone is interested or knows anyone that is interested!

After the pictures we'll be headed to the in-laws to celebrate my FIL's 70th birthday.

Joe.

Sounds good Joe. Good BB game (USA vs. Espana) thus far.

I know people who wish they could sell their Ex.

Why are you letting her go, Joe? Got something new in mind?

Wouldn't get much for her. I actually had to pay to get rid of 'er.

You mean divorces, right?

A good woman is worth more than rubies or gold. You can't even put a price on the right one.

We're selling the travel trailer which is why we had the Ex in the first place...so without the TT...the Ex must go.

We're dreaming about a Class-A diesel pusher coach...actually going to go take a look at one for the second time tomorrow as well as give her a test drive and then possibly start the negotiations...we'll see where this goes.

If we do end up with a motor home...we'll likely get a Jeep 4wd 4door Wrangler to be towed (dinghy/toad) behind the motor home...

Excursions are sought after...Ex's fought after...

Anyone have a good source for OEM lug nuts with the washer on them? I need the 14mm x 1.50. Looking for a full set ASAP.
