    Hitch Jack Won't Turn?

    Probably the turn I made where I busted my kids bike. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this short of hammering it like a madman?

    Hitch Jack Won't Turn?

    Hi guys. I'm not sure how this happened but I arrived at my destination and I can't seem to pull out the metal piece that allows me to turn the hitch jack. When I pull it all the way out and the spring is fully compressed, the metal is still not out where I can turn the jack. I thereforw can't...

    Total Eclipse

    We opted to just get a hotel room with a pool for the kids since the eclipse is on a Monday. FYI if you're getting a hotel room book sooner rather than later lest the prices go nuts.

    Fan Cover For Light?

    Hey guys, I've noticed that we have all these curtains to keep out light so that we don't wake up at the crack of dawn, but the fan lets in a ton of light. Is there a recommended cover for it to keep the camper dark?

    Has my battery gone Toes Up?

    Not going to lie, I think having a separate LiFe battery with a display showing state of charge that you can discharge to 0% makes using the Dometic way less stressful.

    First Trip With Transit As Tv

    Yeah I've found that I get ~19mpg with our 6 cylinder Outback towing the CI. Hilariously, we actually get only 17 in city driving without towing.

    Another Option For A Refrigerator

    Yall! I had bought this RockPals 600 Wh battery the other week and I just found it on Amazon for an absolutely killer price of $270. As comparison, other reputable brands are selling 290 Wh batteries for like $200. ROCKPALS Portable Power Station Freeman 600W, 614.4Wh Solar Generator with 156W...

    Exciting! It was fun to see all the camp inn trailers in various stages of construction when I stopped by Necedah a couple of weeks ago.

    Total Eclipse

    It's in the middle of the day so I guess I could just take the day off and drive down to southern IL and back. No need for a night

    So... 50-60 hrs of use on 900 Wh battery set at 27 degrees? How hot of a day was it?

    Another Option For A Refrigerator

    Question. This fridge advertises about 40 hrs of usage on the ~299 Wh battery. Could I get roughly the same amount of usage by just attaching a 260 Wh jackery to my dometic? EDIT : I have a 100W solar panel that I could use to top off the battery and tbh most times we only go out for 2-3 days...

    Anyone have any tips/ideas on how to attach the ARB side room to the side of the camp inn? I'm going to have a smaller door cut out that is closer to the size of the teardrop door, but I need a way get the wall snug against the teardrop. I tried magnets and then realized that aluminum is not...

    I can't even get Verizon home internet at my stationary home in Chicago, and there is 5G UW down the street. Absolutely 0 chance it'd work on the move.

    Solo Fire Pit

    But if you burn through a bag a night, aren't you hauling a ton of pellets around with you for longer trips? The good thing about normal firewood is that you source it at the campsite so you don't have to bring anything with you.

    Jeep Cherokee

    $800 in 1973 is roughly equivalent to $5400 now. That'd still be a killer price for a four year old car now ha!
