Crazy cool. Shared!

Yup. Courtesy of the seller. The hitch insert we had purchased, for some reason, didn’t play well with the length of the CI safety chains.

Someone wanted to see our receiver on the LC so am posting pics. I thought the drop was about 3-4 inches but it’s not that much… see attached.

Hello! Any chance you could share pics of how your Froli is installed over your storage area and floor?

No standard separate cooler that I’m aware of. Have not looked into that but then again, after we ended up on a terribly steep grade, having chosen the wrong road to our destination, and watching the temp gauge shoot up, I’m motivated to do more research… EDIT: I just want to add that my...

Three things I forgot to add about towing with LC. 1.) The towing tech is not very user friendly. There are several safety features you have to manually disable when really, if you push the tow mode button, that should be done for you imho. 2.) The 7pin connector is right next to the exhaust...

We own a 2024 Toyota Land Cruiser (“Elsie”) and prior to buying #1010, we rented a couple of other bigger travel trailers (Rpod and a Jayco - Sorry….I can’t recall the weight of these) and it towed just fine. But with our 560 we can sometimes forget it’s back there. Mileage on flat interstates...

That’s the place. I wish we had a few more days. It was chilly though, and while we had the furnace it was clear that I personally didn’t have enough layers in my “camping wardrobe”.. Close to Bassetts which has a great store and gas station if you’re in need. I’ll post about our “Elsie” in...

This was only our second time out with “Birdie” (#1010). Imagine our surprise when we pulled into the campground to find another 560 Ultra. We chatted up the owner a bit, who didn’t seem too keen to offer up any personal info. But he did share that he’s had his about 1 1/2 years; that he had it...

Hey All, Has there ever been any video posted on YouTube for this event? If so could you provide a link? I was kinda hoping that the Camp & Camera guy (or someone who does that kind of thing) would’ve posted something by now. Or, is there a strict no filming policy (kidding). Might be hard for...

Interested. Sent direct message.

So no snap ring needed. We’d just have remove that rusted ring, and clean up this area very well, then bolt on the new jack. Got it. May I ask why you got rid of your ARK?

Hello, we are looking at the ARK 350 and you mentioned the snap ring. I’m a rookie. Nearest I can tell the snap ring is the rusted circular area on our CI jack. Correct? Will the ARK 350 come with a snap ring or, given the current state of ours, would we need to order/purchase one?

Amazing. We’re planning a recon trip of ONP. Won’t have our CI but it’ll be great to get familiar with the area and visit family in Seattle.

Noted. Thanks for the advice.
