Yup. That's why I need to fix the power vent first, then see what happens. I also need to look at the eaves and see what kind of airflow is happening through there (if any). I've got easy access to the eaves on one side of the house, but not the other side.

Morning guys.
Finally got most things done and tommorow we leave for Yellowstone.
Got a 5" muffler on truck and it is alot quieter now. Put the EGT gauge and probe in (Thanks again Dave) and I could not get it to go over 1100 degrees towing the 5er yesterday and pushing it hard so that is good.
Anyone ever adjust thier slide outs? I looked yesterday and noticed mine is not pulled in as tight on the bottom as the top when it is closed

Way better. It was not windy yesterday and i only went 13 miles but I can tell the difference.
No .357 needed for bears. Just need to be faster than the slowest person there and in Yellowstone there are alot of people that are stupid and think they are in a petting zoo. Standing 6' from a Grizzly bear may be a little close and I have seen it.

Afternoon everyone!! I just picked up the truck from the shop. I finally found someone locally that was willing to do the A/C compressor. It's cold, but not really cold. I didn't drive very far though.
Now ... if I could charge Amazon.com for the labor and freon to replace the thing, I'd be a happy camper. Too bad all I'll get out of them is the $140 they charged me for the replacement.
Off to UPS to ship it back. L8r!!
