Another great video! You do such professional videos and very enjoyable to watch. We have also stayed several times at this resort and it is one of our favorites.
Couldn’t go wrong either place. I think the signature sites at the ridge would be nice at winter with the hot tub and fireplace. But the views by far would be best at Talona. But The Ridge would have more area activities.
I have hydraulic jacks and never had that problem. Friend of mine had the electric likes your and had that problem every time. Was in multiple times and worked one time every time he got it back then next trip it would say out of stroke. Never figured it out. Had that problem til the day he sold it
What i have learned with mine is use blocks. Keeps the legs from extending to much. Maybe one day if we trade up i’ll look for hydraulics. I only had this happen twice once on our 411 river rest video and this video. We have auto leveled at least 100 times in 2 and 1/2 years and only had an issue when i brought it home and these two times. I have made some heavy duty blocks out of 4x6 and 2x6’s i used horse stall rubber matts for the top and bottoms. I’ll talk briefly about them on our next trip. The plastic blocks i feel like they give under weight and flex a little, i think at least. So i’m going to try these heavy blocks out next. My sister and brother in laws camper has hydraulics and their jacks extend much further than mine. So yea i think electric jacks have issues because they don’t extend far enough where hydraulics do. The out of stroke error means one of the jacks has extended as far as it can so it stops with the error because it thinks it cant auto level. Stay tuned. Thanks for watching and you comment! Good to know. From what I hear hydraulics may be the way to go.
I have 8” tall by 10” wide blocks that I always use under my hydraulic levers. Makes a difference not only for limiting the extension of the legs but also give a wider foot print for places that don’t have concrete pads
I made two blocks Approx. 8" x 11-1/2" and 4 at 7" x 11-1/2" recently that I'll show on the next Stop in Florida that we are about to go to. I made the rear blocks 7" because we tried the Andersen buckets (returned them) and sometimes we found that the level jacks were exactly 8" from the ground and those buckets couldn't fit because they were 8" tall but if they were 7" the would have fit. You also couldn't have the snap pads on the jacks for those buckets either. My 4 rear jacks are kind of close to the ground. When my rear jacks extend they take tension off the leaf springs too and then travel an addition 2 or 3" of lift. When things are really wonky it may even travel much further with the tires almost to the point of lift. I figure the 7" blocks should work better. I hope that means the extension will be limited more than ever. Hope these big footprint solid wood blocks will remedy my problem. I only had these auto level problems when I decided to quit using the yellow lego blocks. When it did auto level without the yellow blocks (which it did several times just fine) the RV was much more solid to us which is why we quit using the yellow blocks which then led to the two auto level issues we had with out of strokes. The concrete pad we had at this stop had some depressions and I think the issue we first had the left side was way lower causing the jacks to need to extend to far. The pad had cracks all over it creating depressions. I also noticed everyone had blocks stacked in our area, yea I should have filmed that and talked about it but didn't think at that time I was so done with auto level I couldn't think. I'll try to be more detailed in my filming in the future, our channel is still new and evolving as well as my creating these videos. I hope over all you enjoyed the video and got something from it, at least entertainment? We will see if these solid blocks work, stay tuned.
What route did you take from Talona to The Ridge? We like going to both, but hate all the traffic getting there! Also, where did you get the 4th of July lights around your RV? Thank you!!
Thanks for watching! We got on 75. I cant remember right off i’d have to look. I basically entered in to my gps and followed it to 75. It was not that far of a drive is what I remember. The lights Tonya got off Amazon. Its a thin rope light and it can make any color. We use them for halloween and Christmas as well as anytime. They make many colors and combos. They can twinkle or dissolve from one to anther too. They were cheep but work great. We use a bucket to roll them inside of to make it easy to keep.

I have been watching your videos and you guys stay at some beautiful places. The wife and I have a question and I hope I don’t offend anyone. Why does your wife always drive in the backseat?
Good question 🤣 no offense at all!. She rides back there to see about our cats. Simon gets car sick and annie gets anxiety. We give them medication but sometimes it does not work. Simon our male cat has thrown up in his carrier a few times so shes back there to clean that up until we can pull off. Plus sometimes simon has to get out and stretch. I will mention this in our next video. I wondered when someone was going to ask. Their like our kids so she ms back there to watch over them. Her choice not mine😁 she loves those cats more than life itself.

Thanks so much! Thank you for watching!
Omg what a gorgeous rv resort. Thank you for sharing
Thank you for watching! It was an awesome place!
@@GlampReview we are debating for winter to go there or talona ridge

@@GlampReview thanks
