We have a 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser and I sometimes get random “Trailer Disconnected” messages. Our trailer’s 7pin has seen better days and we planned to replace it, hoping that might clear the “disconnected” issue. Reading your post I’m not as optimistic…

Some quality oven mitts sound like a must buy.

Reversible is intriguing. Priced reasonably. Thanks!

I can see myself using this technique!! Spatulas are underrated!

We love to take pizza leftovers camping. Love reheating it on griddle we have but it’s not large enough to do a lot at once. Same for making pancakes or French toast. Would like to get it all cooked, sit down, and eat together. Anyone have a favorite brand/model that covers both burners? Looks...

Exactly. We saw you on a Playing With Sticks episode, “Jerry’s Happy Downsizing…” where you said something that sold me on this camper of ours; that our Camp-Inn’s force us to “get outside”. Before we committed to the teardrop world we rented a couple of trailers with kitchens and dinettes...

I’m biased but I think it’s pretty great! ❤️

Benefit received! Thanks, Sweeney

Wow. What a great set up! Looks like you really enjoyed it. Good luck with the sale.

Fun!!! I’m sure your four letter word vocabulary was on display (or perhaps I’m just projecting my own venting technique? )

Unless my better half has already done this (if so, ooops!), I thought I’d late post some pics from the last trip we did in 2025 to Westport, CA on Thanksgiving. It was beautiful, chilly, and a destination that more people had in mind than we expected. Still, was a nice trip. Although, due to an...

I see now that I never updated this post with my selection. We went with the Carlisle Radial Trail HD. Wanted fresh rubber before going on our first trip. We’ve been out three times, the wheels stayed on, and looking forward to more adventures in ‘26.
