    A good day.

    We went to the Dixie stampede instead, and it was great. Two great shows, and looking forward to tomorrow. I think we are scheduled for the Pro Bass Shop tomorrow. The horses and riders were spectacular. It was a dinner show, and the food was fantastic. :sweet Maxtor

    A good day.

    Since we were sick, I lost 6 pounds, but at this rate, it will only take a day or two to get them back and add a few more, if I am not careful. :D

    Day 11-17

    Dave, you don't know how hard it was to find someone to house sit. They get from $300-$500 per month, depending on if there is any pets or livestock to feed and water. All our sprinklers and drip systems are on timers.

    Day 11-17

    We are paying a lady to house sit, so she gets free rent, electricity, water, television, and gets paid to boot. The only service we shut off was the paper.

    realistic towing mpg??

    Maybe Robert will chime in. He has basically the same setup as you do, and he is getting great mileage.

    Question how do you get a 6.0 to get 12-13 mpg towing

    Hmmm thats great Robert. We have been averaging around 13.8 but our 5th wheel is a lot lighter than yours. Our 5th wheel is only about 10,000 lbs. and that is pulling at 1750 rpm, which is a about 64 mph. Best is 15.3 with a side/tail wind, and worse so far is 10.0 in a direct headwind. You...

    Trading in gas guzzler may cost you

    We have averaged around 13.8 on our trip. A high of 15.3 and a low of 10.0 mpg. The 15.3 was with a side/tail wind, the 10.0 was a full on head wind.

    Day 11-17

    Thanks everyone for the kind words. Tonight we went into Branson and had a belated anniversory dinner (36th)at the Lone Star Steak House. All you can eat Baby Back Ribs, but of course, my stomache has shrunk, so I could not take full advantage of the meal, but it was very delicious. Both the...

    Day 11-17

    Thanks, yes the RV parks are almost empty. It is nice in a way, because we have the pick of the parks, but we like to visit, so we would like to have more people to enjoy. Those people who are here are all very nice and friendly. Fuel here is $4.29 but since we have the 74 gallon in bed tank...

    Day 11-17

    :dizzy :dizzy :dizzy Day 11-17 was a nightmare. We got poisoned at a restaurant between Amarillo Texas, and Oklahoma City Oklahoma. We stayed in a campground in Guthrie Oklahoma until I was able to drive again. We next stopped at Pawhuska Oklahoma. I was getting worse, so I went to...

    trailer brake controller.

    I did not take my owners manual with us on this trip, and right now the trailer brake controler is set at 6.0 ,,, Is this about right for 30 foot 5th wheel? It seems that the trailer is doing a lot of the work. I would like to put more bias on the truck, but do not know whether to go up or down.

    Day 9

    I got sick last night. It might have been what I ate at Dennys. :dizzy Ordering our truck with the manual shift might not have been such a good idea. The wife can not drive a manual. I am feeling a little bit better, but not much so this will be short. If i can we will be going to pawhuska...
