  • Sarasota Rally 2019

    , , , ,

    We drove down to Florida over the course of four days to attend the Pleasure-Way RV Club East (PWRVCE) rally in Sarasota.

  • Power Cord Pain Solved

    Our 2018 Lexor has been a pain to plug in since day one. The threads on the locking ring are difficult to engage when attaching the cord to the van. There is a simple and inexpensive fix. Notice this L shaped slot in the threads on the van side of the power connection? There is…
