Fall Colors on National Forests Never Fail to Impress

October 5, 2012 By Leave a Comment

WASHINGTON, –- Fall colors are about to burst all over the country and the U.S. Forest Service wants you to get outdoors and enjoy one of nature’s most spectacular seasons in your national forests.

“Autumn is a wonderful time of the year to plan a trip to see the beauty of your national forests,” said Tom Tidwell, Chief of the U.S. Forest Service. “As tree experts, we have incredible resources on our website to help you plan a great adventure this fall season.”

From coast to coast, state and local economies are boosted because of the fall season and for many rural communities, fall color tourism is a major source of revenue. Hotels, restaurants and local shops rely on the influx of dollars generated by fall visitors. For example, the New England area receives an estimated $8 billion in local revenues annually due to fall activities. Throughout the Midwest, millions of visitors hit the road to enjoy the sights. In the West, the mountains provide destinations filled with tourists seeking a glimpse of shimmering gold aspens.

Weather conditions in all areas impact peak viewing dates, so information provided on the Forest Service website and phone hotline will help visitors best plan their trips.

The Forest Service’s Fall Colors 2012 website includes clickable maps that link to forest-by-forest fall color information and to state tourism and fall color websites. Some of our most popular family friendly features include locations of scenic drives and trails, coloring pages for kids, the science behind the season, and links to a tree database. Photographs from visitors nationwide will be added to the site.

Following tradition, the Forest Service has turned on its Fall Colors Hotline – 1-800-354-4595. The hotline provides audio updates on the best places, dates and routes to take for peak viewing of fall colors on national forests.

The mission of the Forest Service is to sustain the health, diversity and productivity of the nation’s forests and grasslands to meet the needs of present and future generations. The agency manages 193 million acres of public land, provides assistance to state and private landowners, and maintains the largest forestry research organization in the world. Forest Service lands contribute more than $13 billion to the economy each year through visitor spending alone. Those same lands provide 20 percent of the nation’s clean water supply, a value estimated at $27 billion per year.

RV’ers, check your tires!

July 2, 2012 By Leave a Comment

As the summer travels begins-the heat is on…on Your tires that is. All of us RV’ers fall into two groups: Those who have had tire issues and those who will have tire issues. It is very important to check your tires often, at least before any trips. Make checking your tires part of your pre-trip check list. Perform a good visual inspection looking for any damage or excessive wear. Check for any nails, screws or debris that you may have picked up. Pick up a good tire pressure tool and always know where it is. When checking your tire pressure be sure to take a couple of readings to ensure accuracy. The side wall will tell you the amount of air that the tire needs to be inflated to. Alot of RV’ers deviate from this number for a “softer” ride or to compensate for different things. The manufacturer of the tire places this number on the side wall for a reason. The max amount of pressure is listed that is needed to support the load the tire is carrying down the road. One rule of common sense is that if the engineers are going through the effort to give you this information-then use it! Often times not inflating the tire properly can lead to warranty issues-which no one wants to deal with. One recommendation is to install a tire monitoring system. Today’s technology has made these systems simple to install and a great tool for all types of RV’s. The base plugs into your 12 volt plug- in and you simply replace the stem caps for ones with sensors on them. That’s is it-really simple to install. We stock the NVision Tire Monitoring System (click link http://www.go-rv.com/coast/do/catalog/page?dealerId=2852&pageNum=556). Just a little time before you roll out on your trip can save you time down the road. Happy Summer travels from your friends at www.DiscountRVParts.com.

Spring Storms a Concern for RV Owners

April 16, 2012 By Leave a Comment

While the Spring of 2012 is still at a young age, it is already shaping up to be a very active Spring storm season. Remember to inspect your RV after bad weather moves through your area. Besides a walk around looking for hail damage, window damage, make sure you inspect the roof of your RV. Spring storms often bring hail that can reek havoc on your RV’s roof, damaging vents, trim, skylights and the roof fabric itself. If your RV sustains serious damages contact your insurance company and seek out the assistance of a reputable RV dealership that has a RV Service department that can make such repairs. If unsure about a local dealership check in with your Better Business Bureau for references. If minor damage exists to vents and trim we stock a large selection of replacement roof vents. Whether its for your motor home, travel trailer, fifth wheel, or popup we have vents in stock ready to ship from Jensen, Elixir, Vent Line, Vent Mate and Maxxair . As always if you don’t find what your looking for in our online catalog-please e-mail us at info@DiscountRVParts.com and we will be glad to help!

Preparing for the Camping Season!

February 23, 2012 By Leave a Comment

The Family Motorhome

Preparing your RV to get started safely this season

For RV owners, the end of the winter means one important thing, and that’s the first use of their vehicle. It’s important to take certain steps to ensure that your RV is up and ready to go for a safe and enjoyable season.

The following are some tips you can use to inspect and test your systems and ensure that your RV is all set for use.

• Check the exterior – among the top issues that can develop while an RV is in storage is water leaks. Have a careful look over the entire exterior of the vehicle to make sure that the caulking is all in good condition and that it hasn’t cracked or fallen away. Be especially careful as you check around doors, windows, vents in the roof, and seams. It takes only the tiniest crack to allow a significant amount of water to enter.

• Inspect the tires – give the tires a visual inspection with an eye open for cracks between treads and on the sidewalls. Think of any crack as a safety hazard and a good reason to replace that tire. Once you know that your tires are in good condition, check their pressures and compare it to the recommended pressure from the manufacturer. Recommended tire pressures are usually posted inside a cabinet on a decal.

• Clear your appliances – take the access covers off the refrigerator and the water heater. Carefully inspect the assembly of the burner for any kind of foreign debris such as dust, nests, and spider webs. The burner area can be cleaned using very light air pressure from a compressor. Never blow a high amount of air pressure into the chimney of a refrigerator. If you aren’t sure how to do it, have a professional do this task.

Beyond these steps, you should also check batteries and L.P. items, check the hot water heater bypass valve and then fill the water, test smoke detectors and other fire appliances, inspect and test the generator, check dump hoses and valve seals for waste tank valves, and inspect the awnings and check the condition of the fabric and the spring tension.

BrakeLightBuddy

February 15, 2012 By Leave a Comment

Every time Dave McArthur hooked up their 5th wheel he had to track down his wife to help check his brake lights. When he hooked up his boat to head out on a fishing trip his wife wasn’t always available to help check brake lights.
As a commercial driver, Dave checks his brake lights daily during his vehicle inspection that is required by the DOT. Failure to perform the check and getting stopped by a law enforcement officer for a nonfunctioning brake light can be very costly in both lost time, points against your commercial drivers license and potential fines.
Not being able to find anything on the market designed to assist drivers in checking their brake lights unassisted, he decided to design one himself and came up with BrakeLightBuddy™.
Recognizing the fact that there are many drivers that have the same need, he decided to make BrakeLightBuddy™ available to all drivers at a price that everyone can afford.
BrakeLightBuddy™ was recently endorsed by IITR Truck Driving School, the only nationally accredited truck driving school in the states of Oregon and Washington. The owner of the school said that instructors in all five of their schools have now incorporated the use of the tool into their training and have made BrakeLightBuddy™ available for purchase to all students. He also said he’s surprised it took so long for someone to come up with such a simple tool to do such an important job.
One of the largest RV parts and accessories companies in the United States recently ordered a shipment and will be marketing BrakeLightBuddy™ online and in their 2012 spring catalog. When placing the order their buyer said “It’s a unique idea. I gave the sample you sent to my assistant, who has a travel trailer, and asked her to try it out. She said it’s not always convenient for her to stop doing what she’s doing to go help her husband check their brake lights.” He went on to say he’s excited to introduce it as a new product.
For more information and to order see our web site brakelightcheck.com.
