So what do square cuts run per bale right now?]]> Tue, 09 Feb 2016 11:34:14 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7416&PID=69776#69776 new mattress : Originally posted by jatoYes,... https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7416&PID=69775#69775 Author: TexanBorn

See you ride horses.  We finally sold ours about 4 years ago, square cut bales of hay were running 8.50/bale - ouch.

Thanks!  I will order it today!

I lease my horse now.  Hubby is literally deathly allergic to horse dander and my job keeps me on the road many days at a time, he would not be able to feed it for me!

$8.50 / bale sounds like heaven right now in drought stricken CA!

Jato, is this the one you are speaking of?


That appears to be the same, or near so, to the one we put in. Couple hundred nights on it over the years, still feels like it did then.

We purchased our 177 in 2011 and after our third time out decided on trashing the mattress.  Don't mind being 'cozy' when sleeping but when you both roll together in the middle and can't escape, well that is another issue.  Replaced with a Eurotop from Camping World, really nice!]]> Sun, 07 Feb 2016 17:45:04 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7416&PID=69684#69684 new mattress : Originally posted by Happy... https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7416&PID=69632#69632 Author: Keith-N-Dar

We got four camping seasons before we had to replace ours.  It was fine when new but was sagging by the end.  We are both full sized folks.

We got the 10 inch foam mattress from Amazon, and it works just fine for us.

Got rid of the factory mattress after first time using it. It was crap. Put in my own foam mattress that I used for tent camping .it was better than factory but could be better. Found rv queen 10 inch foam mattress on amazon for $237 with free shipping and it is a winner for us. I am long legged so crawling over wife in nite not an issue. If reach is issue they had an 8 in. Mattress for
$217. We slept on ours for ten days in the Everglades and we both gave it an AOK+.

Previous tt went to original mattress factory and had them cut me a high density foam 6 in. mattress. Went back to them to check and they would make one for me but it would of cost $550. That's why ended up checking on amazon. It was worth it.]]> Thu, 04 Feb 2016 17:57:53 +0000 https://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=7416&PID=69605#69605
