Good to hear they are working out well for you.

Mine are going on 5 years old even tho they still look like new, I know I will have to replace them in the next year or two. Tires are one item I will NOT skimp on due to cost.

Making my run to Sturgis SD the 9th of August for a fun time again at the Annual Motorcycle Rally & staying here: Sturgis Camping | 2016 Sturgis Rally Campground RV Tent Always enjoy riding thru the Black Hills and meeting people from all over the world that come to the rally.

Happy camping.
My treads were going on 10 years (They came with the trailer at mfg. and when pulled I was told they dated back to '07!!!)... I should have changed them when I bought the trailer, but they looked good and decided to wait... I kept a close watch on them, 3 trips to AZ and back (maybe 12 to 15K miles) and a few trips around here... They were starting to show light sidewall checking, so after the trip to Leech Lake a few weeks ago, I decided they had to go... I drive a lot of two-lane secondary roads and that is no place to blow a trailer tire!!
The Maxxis Tires had a great write-up in Trailer Life, but I opted for GY Endurance as they are manufactured here... They balanced out well and towed well...

Wow, there are a lot of new folks on here anymore... I could spend a couple weeks just saying "welcome"...

Take care Eagle and

However, I can't find an owners manual siince there is nothing on it to tell me the model. NOR is it Blue-tooth, which I prefer and want to have. SO.. looking for a replacement. the iRV iRV33 that was mentioned by LJAZ is no longer available: https://www.crutchfield.com/p_932RV3....html?tp=48825. I contacted Crutchfield and their current model is $400?!
Does anyone have an alternative to this model? thanks!

Happy GLAMPING!
After a lot of searching around reading online reviews etc. it seemed that quality wise they were all about the same. So I ended up going with this one. https://www.crutchfield.com/p_522JMW...sen-JWM6A.html. The nice thing was the plug was identical so I literally only had to unplug the old one and plug in the new one. So far so good.

We made a stereo cabinet for the stereo in our 1996 Shasta. The old stereo had a cassette player!!
Those black things on the bunk are bags for our lawn chairs.

I am glad it worked for you... The old radio in my trailer and the new one were from the same mfg., but the plugs were different... After checking the manual, all the wires were color coded the same... really no issues in the change...

Our 2016 FF came with a Furrion RV CD/DVD player and soundbar. Sound and performance are definitely okay and imagine they are reasonably priced. It runs off the 12VDC and has no noticeable buzz of other noise. I found them on Amazon but note they are not highly rated.
