This article addresses the common issue of melted RV shore-power plugs

The heavy current draw in hot weather might explain why my Rodeo Rider Eagle had two generators, two breaker boxes, 4 cruiseairs, and three rooftops, and up to twenty four sweaty cowboys. 

 Walter it is not only the high amp draw from the AC's generators drop wattage over 100 degrees,a 12kw becomes a 10kw at 115 degrees ,Cummins Onan has a good chart showing how much temperature and altitude can affect the wattage output on generators

Cliff your buddy probably got the 15,500Rec/Pro  they are about 200.00 each more.
We can run the front Coleman 15,000 about 40 YO ducted we figure and the back new one 13,500 and if needed we have a 10,000 roll around ac we can run also until we turn on the MW, lol but that is with shore 50 or 7KW genny. Can run one plus roll away on inverter if needed also.

Another month in Kansas you will need heat not AC ,Kenny bought the low profile Rec/Pro I don't know the BTU's ,I think they were over $1200 ea he loves the unit say he can sleep without ear plugs now

Same with ours. He got the new 12 volt ones. I almost got those until I saw a video on one that because the air vent is on top he got some rust inside on the fans and had to get them replaced.

As far as cold we can't wait here in Kansas it was a really hot and humid summer. never turned the ac's off even at night and they are still on. Looking forward to the cold. Vehicles are registered here and soon will switch DL. life is good. Fuel is $2.24 this week and diesel is 2.94. Food is fairly cheap as is Walburgers. Signs everywhere "We are hiring", And people wave even if they don't know you ,lol

Some of the content in your post is priceless because it sometimes feels the whole world is in a tail spin! IMHO.

Kansas is not all that bad once you make through April and June during tornado season the I 35 toll road sucks  I never saw a major interstate that charged a toll 

[Dave5Cs]

Funny on the tolls. When we came here from Waybesville, MO we went through the tolls but most were taped over and you just drove through. We have a TXtag so we thought they would send us a bill like they do after taking a picture of the plates. But never got one. Doreen called the toll people in Kansas, Texas, and OK but they all said nope no problem and you don;t owe anything. Never did get a bill. Even checked our addresses in CA but nada.

I drove thru several Tolls cameras during COVID and never paid and never got a bill.

One Toll company told me that if you go on a Toll road only once they do not send you a bill.  It probably costs more to send a bill for one toll than what they get out of the payment.

[luvrbus]

Almost all the toll roads in America belong to a foreign company, all the toll roads in Texas are built by a company from Brazil except for a few local toll roads the county built. It was in news where Texas had to  step in and stop some of the fines they were issuing some were $1000's of dollars,one case a single mom was fined $9000.00 because she ran 3 toll booths in a week. We never had but 1 toll road in Texas for years and it was the Dallas to Ft Worth turnpike, now they are everywhere and the Dallas to Ft Worth turnpike is gone when it got paid for they took all the booths down.I don't like driving the toll roads in Texas the speed limit of 80 mph is crazy one out of Austin is 85 mph

[Dave5Cs]

We went through about 8 tolls when we came here originally but never got a bill. We even stopped at the Toll House in OK and asked if they had any cookies but no and we didn't owe any money either. Now in Kansas and probably Texas and OK they have stopped using collectors and took out the booths.

You just have the reader on your winshield that records it and they send you the ticket or you can put a deposit on the books and they just take it until it runs out. If you don't have a tag then they just send it to you. It takes a picture of you at the wheel and your front and rear license plates.

I had Pike passes in OK back in 1997 ,they told us if we went  with the pike pass the fees would be 1/2 the cost lol that lasted for 6 months then they charged the regular fees.Tulsa is a tough place to go in any direction` with out a toll fee. I sent a crew to OKC one time and they had a glitz  in the system I got four $90.00 tickets in 1 day but the camera worked they sent a photo of the plates with the tickets, only took 3 months to resolve the tickets deal ,OK had a lane for the pass and 1 for cash
