Lynn, Redemption is yours! Well done! It is so easy in snow or mud to land in a mud pit, especially with that kind of weight on an axle. So, don't be too hard on yourself. I think the mistake less experienced drivers (I refer to myself) are apt to make is over-correction when backing up. Mike's main tip -- remain between 11 o'clock and 1 o'clock when steering -- will prevent that. Mike's (and your) video on backing / parking a trailer is THE BEST video on the technique I've ever seen! As mentioned in a previous comment, I had an 17-hour road trip with only a 24-foot boat trailer and that video was my saving grace -- no mishaps despite crowed gas stations, mountain passes, road construction. Everyone who tows a trailer or drives a rig should study that video! Thanks!

[@WanderingWagners]

Appreciate that! It felt good getting redemption finally but it was still nerve-wracking because of the last time. I was happy how it turned out!

[@georgeroberts7887]

Van Buren is a nice park; discovered it Aug-trying Maumee Bay SP this weekend. Nothing wrong with a little redemption…I found your channel almost four years ago when we purchased our first RV (GD Imagine 2970 like your friends)…your “Back Your RV” video is pure gold with common sense principles that work! Enjoyed the challenge of backing up. We just got a 36’ Renegade in July and appreciate your how to/DIY videos. Enjoy.

As you said Mike. A truck and rv aren’t the same. My 2500 came with 70 lbs all around, when not hooked up to 5 th wheel, it will beat you to death. I dropped the tires to 35 lbs and it’s a WORLD of difference in the ride.

The price of the seat belt up grade is stupid, that should have been included in the seat upgrades, but as always another great video 😊

[@richardmondor1360]

Hi, suggestion....the seat belt tether brackets, where the mount at the floor, should face the seat side...i noticed yours face towards the windshield. Problem here is it shortens the tether length so you dont get full height when the seat extends upwards, also it takes the twist out of the tether.

[@WanderingWagners]

They allow us full extension

[@johnlindley121]

Note to Mike, don't drop the drain plug in the drain bucket. Please don't ask how I know. I never thought about that issue with the air rides seats, but man, $1,000 bucks is pretty stiff. I know some of it is for liability insurance for that particular part but still pretty steep. Keep the good stuff coming guy.

What's $1,000? It was about $450 total. Still not cheap for the few pieces parts, but the belts are way more comfortable on bumps now!😁

Good old Rotella. I worked for Shell and must have tested a million gallons of it. Actually worked with the guy who invented it at the research lab. Really good oil. I have seen engines when they were tore down after using Rotella 15w40. Looked like they were polished inside.

Some filters fit on engines almost sideways and you can’t fill them but 1/4 - Possibly 1/2 full or otherwise you’ll dump oil all way down your arm.
