RE: URGENT PROBLEM: Can't get the bed to slide back in

Response from SGS: The slider came off the track. I had to unscrew the slider and remove it.
Thanks for checking.

RE: URGENT PROBLEM: Can't get the bed to slide back in

I just sent them a PM hoping they'll respond....it would be nice for those who seek help, to let others know how it turned out so that if they get into the same situation, they know the fix.

RE: Suggestion For Winter Covers

Larson6, I bought this from Tractor Supply for $99. The poles slide into plastic "T"s and "Y"s, I predrilled and installed screws at every connection so it won't seperate in high winds, I also lag bolted it to the 4x4's that it sits on, plus achored it down from the top of the 4 corners....3 years of winter snow, rain and some pretty hefty winds and she still stands.....and you can cut the legs shorter if you want to. Tom, I've been to Sycamore once in the last 7 years....I love the rods and old cars, but seem to always be too busy to get down there more often.

RE: 2 Mods

I would imagine there are provisions made to get the moisture out of the cargo box, yet keep it dry ??:h

RE: Question - Am I being rude?

I've read a lot here about people walking through someone's campsite and I understand that it's considered rude.
My question here is if it's still taboo if it's, for example, late at night, no one outside, early, no one outside? I realize in both cases, that we should be quiet and not disturb those inside, but if you glanced out the window and you saw us walk quietly by, would you consider us rude?
Thanks for the help. Trying to learn the etiquette.
If you are just walking by on the road, and not on my site, I'd say it's not rude. If you are walking on my site, I don't care if it's daylight, that is rude.

RE: What is your limit for a pop-up

If I were planning to spend an extended period of time camping, I'd have to go with a TT, there may be many instances where the weather is not cooperating and you can always back in a TT and finish set up later....not to mention just pulling over somewhwere to catch some sleep during your travels

RE: car rentals

Yoy can call Enterprise and talk to one person, hang up and call back and talk to someone else and most likely, will get a different rate for the same vehicle. Enterprise has a bottom dollar they would get for a certain vehicle, it varies by location / manager, they will try to get as much as possible....remember, they get promoted by the numbers they produce....they really jack up the prices depending on the time of year....try pricing a mini van around the start of school....christmas, or any other time you would have multiple people / cargo traveling. If it's the last car within miles, watch what you pay.

RE: car rentals

Yes, Enterprise will pick you up and drop you off...no charge. Check to make sure ALL tags are in order on the vehicle and check the tires for wear....I can't tell you where I get my info, but they are known to let cars go out that are not properly tagged (expired) and bald tires...the horror stories I could tell you:E

RE: CT State Parks

That is ridiculous. We like Kettletown and Hammonnasset, but at these rates, I'll go private. I can camp 3 mi. up the road from Hammo for $40/night w/ water/electric. My only fear is that the private campgrounds will follow suit - and many of them are already outrageously priced. I like our State Parks for being close and inexpensive, and an economical way to have a nice weekend w/ my family. Not anymore.
Unfortunately, it's not just camping. My husband paid $7 just to PARK at Sleeping Giant to go hiking this weekend. How sad.
I agree - so much for a Staycation. So much for giving families an economical way to get away....
Yup, just up the road is Riverdale Farms....but do you have to pay to get into Hammonasett ???. What do you think of the Governor rehiring 500 state retirees who will now collect a full paycheck, plus their pension....double dipping ???....she should have hired from the unemployement lines:M

RE: Some questions as I prepare to by my first ever Pop Up

With a Pop Up, if you close it wet, you gotta open it back up to dry, need space for that

RE: Leak with hard rain???

My '07 Utah CP leaked in heavy rain one weekend....my buddy spotted the torn rubber gasket for the latching mechanism on the slide and could actually see where the water trailed right into the camper. Upon closing down the camper for that weekend, we also noticed that BOTH bunk end canvas was pulling out of the upper track. but that had nothing to do with the leak.
