If you're not plugged into shore power check your house batteries. I believe you need 10.5 volts to fire water heater or fridge.

I think it's just a $10 per month charge to have Dish add local channels. Local channels show up on the Dish guide. I use DishForMYRV. As I move locations I just text Dish my new zip code, wait a few minutes and rescan. I active/pay for Dish only when I need it. Dish is fighting with NBC and ABC. On our last trip we could not get NBC on Dish.

The most important thing is a good attitude. All the little stuff can be bought along the way. You've covered extra fuses. A few things on our must have list are: white lithium grease to lubricate outside, silicone spray to lubricate inside, extra cabinet latches and the screwdriver needed to replace them, duct tape, oil for the rig.

On the human side make sure you have prescription meds plus basic OTC meds including something for allergies even if you don't think you have them. Also a first aid kit is a must and pain med (Aleve, Advil, etc.)

Ear plugs are nice just in case. Bug stuff, sun block, anti-itch cream. Umbrella or rain gear. Charging cords. A good chair, a good book, and the ability to adapt, relax and enjoy. Don't sweat the small stuff. There are stores almost everywhere and you need less than you think  Have an awesome trip!

Good attitude IS the most important thing to bring along. No question that PCs are well built and I've had remarkable success getting responses from the factory when I need it. Todays roads can be a bit rough and really shake the house. We've been on a circle Lake Michigan tour for the last 30 days. Toad braking system quit. (Not a PC part). Contacted MFG and had a replacement part in two days. Installed it myself. GCFI in bath tripped and wouldn't reset. Replaced it and still wouldn't reset. Bath, kitchen and outside receptacle are linked together and none worked. Called the factory and Doug called be back to trouble shoot. Thanks Doug! Outside receptacle had water in it from recent hard rain. Replaced receptacle and all is well. Yesterday some of the roads were so rough that a MGD shade fell off the wall. Hard to get to but a new screw fixed it. AHHH. The RV life! Things WILL happen just smile and move on.

Can you change your password to "password" once you are back in there?

I'm already a member and received an email today from WordPress. Password does not work. Look at this password. Is PCTC the damn Pentagon? What are they protecting? Why do we need such a contrived password (some idiots would call this a secure password). If it remains this difficult tp log in, I don't need to be a member.

Be safe and healthy out there.

Arrived back in Indiana from Sarasota Florida on Saturday 4/18. Straight up I75 through DT Atlanta, Chattanooga, Nashville, Louisville and Indianapolis. Very little traffic, minor road construction and cheap gas. All gas stations were open and prices were $1.11-$1.59 a gallon. No problem at all finding open campgrounds in the $30-35 range. Travel and camping is possible but there's not much to do until the restrictions are lifted and things begin to get back to normal. Check this website for open campgrounds. https://blog.rvillage.com/rvillage-list-of-open-rv-parks/?_ga=2.267262537.655480405.1586028570-431606661.1542750185
Safe travels everyone!

Norcold makes a hinge retrofit. They're available from Norcold, Amazon and eBay.
My door fell off at this years PC Reunion. Luckily Doug from the Mothership was there to repair it. I now have the retrofit. I hope this solves my problem.
I also wonder why PC continues to use Norcold.

I'm a member. FMCA Roadside Assistance  is less expensive than other companies. I've never used it. Knock on wood! Just like any other product, some members love. it. Others have had problems. I have FMCA sponsored Verizon Hotspot at $50.00 a month with free hardware and have been very happy with it. What sold me on FMCA is their FMCAssist benefit that is included in your annual dues. Instead of me trying to explain it, see the attached link.  https://www.fmca.com/fmca-assist
Have a great day!
