That's over 4000 RPM as it climbs over 9000 ft.elevation- Sounds more dramatic on video, I think. Rest assured, we are going to get some truck maintenance done when we get to somewhere warmer. Thanks for watching!

But, not fun you got stuck in it! That is a lot of ice on the tailgate..... Clever filming of the truck bed clean out! If only it was that quick in real life, right?

Hello again and thanks for watching! I might replace the sail switch but I'm thinking that because the gas valve opens and it ignites every time and stays lit (for as little as a few seconds but sometimes as long as 10 minutes) it might be the flame sensor or limit switch? I'm hoping it isn't the gas valve in the furnace, the other parts mentioned are much cheaper, it might be worth just replacing them. I did just replace the propane regulator a few months ago so I hope I'm getting enough flow from the tanks.

Nice. I have a concern. Yesterday I replaced the shocks on my 2006 Airstream. I tightened them until I had significant resistance. The reason is that many people with Airstreams have complained on AIrforums how shocks have come loose,, nuts were missing from one or more of their shocks, etc. I guess my concern is that people do not tighten the nuts enough. The shock should still pivot with thousands of pounds- I watched your tightening closely and this is a concern I have. I know they say loose but....that could be why so many are coming loose from the factory.

Hi, Thanks for watching, it has been a while since I checked to see if they are still tight and I should once again. If memory serves, I believe mine don't have symmetrical hex nuts on them, the nuts are ovalized in a way that is supposed to keep them from loosening.

Hi Brent and Betsy! Shanna also requested a second look at that play in the left front this weekend. We like the RAS, as compared to the extra leaf spring we put in our previous Tundra. The stiffer leaf spring pack made the ride rough when the truck was unloaded. The RAS counteracts the fully loaded 'squat' without making the ride harsh. Shanna likes the feeling while towing. She wanted a bolt on improvement where she didn't need to drop the axle. We think its is worth it to improve the ride. ~Andrew
