RVing with the Fergs 2.0 - Full Timers Again! - February 19, 2021

 Up until closing, scheduled for February 19th, I was busy getting our RV setup and equipped with all the goodies needed to be on the road full time.


I ordered my Goodyear G614 tires, had new metal valve stems installed, and put them on. 






My EEZ TPMS gets to watch 110 psi now instead of just 80.


I decided to add 2 more 200 watt solar panels up top. That makes 4 panels, 800 watts. I installed these last two on brackets that I could raise if needed. Lots of Dicor. Haven't had any leaks yet...and don't ever plan to!








For my truck, I ordered 6 more EEZ TPMS sensors and inner dually valve extensions. 





Since we now have a 50 Amp rig, I got a new Surge Guard, and 50 Amp extension cable.






I had to have a couple of X blocks for the tires, I never trusted just a chock block.





It was time to replace my old water pressure regulator. I now have an adjustable one.





I picked up a few nice quick connect water couplers.




Also a new Oxygenics shower head.




I had to replace a Max Air II vent cover. I broke it while on the roof. (It was very brittle).




Also on the roof, I installed a spinning sewer vent.




I bought some waterless RV and truck cleaner. We will see how that goes.





And finally, a couple of new chairs.





I think we are ready to go now!


Our oldest Daughter, Candy, came to visit us for a week. She lives in Coeur d'Alene, ID. She was glad to get out of the cold and enjoy our Arizona winter. We took her to Quartzsite, Lake Havasu, Oatman, and along with Daughter Kim and family, Sedona.






We had a wonderful visit.


Then yesterday, February 18th, we pulled out of the Yuma house we have had for the last 3 years.





We checked into Foothill Village RV Resort, just about 2 miles from the house. I did swing by the CAT scales on the way. Even with the new heavier tires and two more panels on the roof, we purged enough to lighten our load by 180 pounds. And decrease the pin weight by 160 pounds.


Foothill Village RV Resort,







Now today is the 19th. We just received the call. The buyers have signed all the papers and now they are the new owners. 


It is over!


We are truly full timers, on the road!





The Fergs out .......
