Hi. We have put curtains in the same places and they work so well, whether it’s hot or cold. I really don’t know why they use those bulky/ heavy concertina doors. We actually put in permanent pole’s which can double as hanging for damp or wet washing at those times when the rain seems never ending. Safe travels 🫶

Thank you! And yes, every kilo counts. We were advised by Redfoot that if in our travels we were staying mostly in caravan parks then go with the electric system. But if we were to be more off grid (which we will be) then go with the hydraulic system as it caters for uneven surfaces because each foot is independent. Hope this helps 😀

Hi. Do you need to park on a very level ground to enable functional use of slide out? How good is the 9 speed Auto transmission? What is GVM? Do you do much off grid camping? Cameron
@passynby
@passynby 10 күн бұрын
Hi Camh, Slight slopes are ok however we try and park on ground that is level....you want to be comfortable walking around inside. It is recommended that you use the slideout on as close to level as possible otherwise you may run the risk of the slideout going out of square. 9speed auto is great and is a very smooth rise. GVM = Gross Vehicle Mass which is the maximum weight the vehicle can be at any one time. We try and do as much off grid as we can. We are totally self sufficient so we try and make use of it as much as we can. Thanks for the interest. Cheers

Just had a response from Michelin through the Jayco group . Apparently the originals are a special Motorhome tyre marked “CP” which are designed to run at 80 psi . For vehicles stood still for a while under weight!! I will forward letter to your facebook. So they are fine and legal .

Thanks for the info Mitchell. I cannot remember seeing the "CP" marking, however, will not deny it was there. It was our choice to change the tyres and we feel that Maude drives a lot smoother now. The main point we are making is for everyone to check their own tyres and make their own decision as to what direction they take.
