  1. Hi all As some of you know, I sold my 85 Huntsman Toy and bought a 92 Itasca Toy. With the 85 we averaged around 14mpg ( 4cyl). We have just returned from our first trip in the 92 (6cyl) and only got 11mpg. I see things that are written about both and the mpg is higher then what we get. Are most people making their toy seem better than it is or is there something I can do to improve our mpg. Thanks for any and all help, Cathy P.S. Thanks to all of u who hepled in my stripe problem. My husband removed all the stripes and logos and replaced them himself and it looks brand new!
  2. I misspoke................ My husband says we have air bags not air shocks. We did get them from http://www.3tsrv.com/ Cathy
  3. Check this place out. It's where I bought air shocks for my toy. http://www.3tsrv.com/ Cathy
  4. Thank you.....I'll check those sites out today! Cathy
  5. Thanks! I hadn't thought of the bead size being different. Cathy
  6. Y'all are so helpful! I really appreciate your ideas. I'm in need of awning replacement fabric. I took the advice of another topic on here about it and found what I needed at a good price @ RV Workshop ( shademaker ). I hope to be able to order it within the next couple of weeks. This is just the most helpful place in the world for all Toy lovers. Thanks again, Cathy
  7. Well I did it.............sold my 85 Huntsman and bought a 92 Itasca Spirit. It's a real cutie and in great shape except a few of the stripes ( not all ) have chips missing. The last owner tried to pressure wash it and any little pieces that were at all loose chipped off. So........... I'm looking for stripes and wondering if you can buy some stripes or do you have to buy them as a whole set. Mostly I'm worried that since they don't make the toys anymore that I may not be able to replace them with the same kind. It's not real bad but would like to know any info. for the future if I decide to fix them. We bought it in Athens Tn. They were running it on Ebay and we offered him his reserve price........because it was well worth it! (8000.00 )Everything works and no leaks ever. 60,000 miles. Thanks, Cathy
  8. Thanks for fixing those pics for me. I love the look of it but it has too many problems and too many missing things for me to pay anything close to 9000.00. The Maine tags might explain the no A/C. LOL Thanks, Cathy
  9. I've sent them to you thru email......thanks for helping...good luck......It will solve the mystery of what does a rockwood look like lol Thanks again, Cathy
  10. Here are the pics he sent me of the 1992 Toy Rockwood Roamer. It has no A/c,no oven, bad carpet, looks like a mattress over cab, no awning,bad spot in ceiling and a dent in the side. However, I do like the style alot. Given just the few things I mentioned I don't want to pay 9000.00 for it. Am I wrong? Cathy Sorry the 2 pics of the outside won't upload because they are too big 2.1 mb and 2.3 mb and I can't seem to delete this post. Soooo sorry! Does anyone know how or where I can show these pics to ya'll or how to resize them?
  11. Everyone I emailed the guy again yesterday and told him I had tryed to look for a Rockwood online and couldn't find one. I was thinking maybe he had made a mistake on the ad. He said that it says Rockwood in big letters on the side. He also said that when he bought it and bought the tag for it that the registry had trouble finding it too but finally did. I'll let y'all know if I ever get the pics. Thanks, Cathy P.S. Here is the ad.... http://nashville.craigslist.org/rvs/1098187493.html
  12. Allen Here is the one I found. http://nashville.craigslist.org/rvs/1098187493.html Thanks for trying to help, Cathy
  13. Dianne Yes, the one in Tn is the one I found. Still haven't heard from the owner except to tell me he'd take pics this week-end. If I learn anymore about it I'll let you know. Thanks, Cathy
  14. I'm looking at an ad for a 1992 Rockwood Toyota mh. The pic is not good so I can't tell much about it. I'm looking at a 4 hr drive to see it and was wondering if any one here has ever heard of one or know anything about one. I've seen a lot of Toys and have a Huntsman but have never heard of Rockwood except the BIG ones. He can't make more pics til the week end and I've looked everywhere on the net for pics of one, with no luck. Thanks, Cathy
  15. Hi All As some of you know I'm looking for a 90's model Toy. Not sure about selling my 85. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone knows of things I should look for on this 1990 Odyssey? In your opinion, is it made well or not? I've seen alot of Dolphins in the 90's and most were in real bad shape. I'm hoping this Toy is ok. I'll be going to see it Mon or Tues. ANY advice would be appreciated!! Thanks, Cathy
  16. Allen That 93 seabreeze scam is about to get on my nerves it clutters up my search because it is advertised all over the united states. Thanks for the rvtrader tip. Also, WELCOME to Tn! Best folks in the world here. Thanks, Cathy
  17. Bufbooth THANK YOU! That helps put together the craigs list and ebay campers. Cathy
  18. Hi all As some of you know I have an 85 huntsman and we love it but I'm interested in finding another toy in a 90's model. I've looked on this sight and on ebay and on craigs list. I'm in Tn. So my question is does anyone have any other ideas on where to look??? Thanks for any help you can give, Cathy
  19. Mine does not have an onboard gen. If yours does it would be located in one of the side compartments with a door to it. Mine doesn't even have a place for one so I put one on a rack that I attached to the trailer hitch and ran a pigtail inside to plug my power cord into. Mike
  20. I have an 85 Huntsman Maybe I can help with any questions you have. I don't have most of the manuals either but I still might can help or I guess I should say my husband can help. Cathy & Mike
  21. Guess what...................Same scammer in Knoxville Tn. As soon as he sent me the first letter I knew it was a scam not to mention the fact that i had seen those pic before on ebay ( he must have stole them or tried the scam there too). Anyway, I emailed him back and told him that people looking on craigs list knew better then to send money before seeing the camper and that we are updated all the time to scammers like him. It makes me soooo mad. As hard as people are having it right now and then to have these vulchers out there. GRRRRRR Cathy P.S. He deleted the add the next day!
