    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Hit some Moab trails after the Expo.

    A lot of them were pretty obvious. Unbolt the cover and push/press on things like the compressor tube and pipes, etc, while it runs to see if the pressure quiets it down. If so, gently bend it to where it needs to be. Check interior basket for vibration. Check the rubber bushings securing the...

    "Engel had a display and I was able to talk to a very knowledgeable rep who gave me several things to check on to get mine quiet again. The worst case scenario was a new compressor for $350." So please share some of the suggestions to quiet an Engel...Thanks

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Bucket List

    Nice story, I understand they have a program of trying to send WW2 vets to see their memorial before they die. It still amazes me that Korea and Vietnam vets had their memorials before WW2 vets did! Even though I was in Thailand, not Vietnam, I've always regretted never seeing the Vietnam...

    The husband leans over and asks his wife, "Do you remember the first time we had sex together over fifty years ago? We went behind the village tavern where you leaned against the back fence and I made love to you." Yes, she says, "I remember it well." OK, he says, "How about taking a...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Not happy with my Engel!

    I need to purchase a new meter and check mine, but totally unscientific testing by ear says in normal conditions, it probably runs about 1/4 of the time? Could be more, its pretty quiet and I usually don't hear it at all. That's just about what mine does, about 15 minutes per hour when it's...

    Blink, and you might miss it too! :o It's actually a small amount of water, but my wide angle makes it look big. I mostly liked it for the incredible, chartreuse moss that grows there. This was the first trip for my new-fangled Canon 6D which has internal GPS, so I can say it should be...

    What? I got no bites on the tazer comment? :D http://www.huffingto..._n_1243719.html After reading the article, and, as a retired LEO, sounds like the guy was an *******, and because the ranger was a woman, thought he could walk away. I think he got what he deserved. YMMV.
