I have not posted in a while, there are plenty of excellent contributors. I just read and learn. I did a search on a problem I had this past weekend. Came up empty, so I thought I would post. We left camp to visit family in the neighborhood. My moms 95th birthday. How cool is that? 61 children...

On of my guys took this picture to show me. He did not realize it was a Camp-Inn. Anyone out there recognize the truck? Steve

Where is a good place to get new keys cut for the front storage on the Camp-Inn's that have that storage? We have few choices in my small town, but Nashville is close by. The local W-M does not carry this blank. Thanks, Steve

For sometime now I have kept the plastic coffee containers thinking there was something I could do with them. I did stumble across one use. I now use them to store bungee cords and ratchet straps. The ratchet straps need to be neatly coiled to be practical. FUN FACT.... Oh, yeah...We use...

Last night Ellen and I evacuated to a safe spot while camping at LBL. Our site was on the lake. Weather Bug on the netbook and local channels on the satellite TV showed a very strong storm zeroing in on the campground. I got emails on my Blackberry warning me of the storm and then the tornado...

Has anyone got experience with the Camp Chef Camp Stove? What do you think of it? It comes with great reviews? http://www.cabelas.com/product/Camp-Chef-Deluxe-Camp-Oven-with-Grill/727824.uts I get incentive cards from work for the work my guys do. I usually get camping stuff and this has made...

Not to hijack the thread but...GO PREDS...we finally broke thru. Steve

What are the top two or three features you show every time you have people looking? Steve and Ellen's 1)Slide out propane stove 2)TV with outside hookup for dish. This has brought a laugh more than a few times. 3)Full size wheels and tires

I am interested in the effects of salt / snow on our teardrop. I have the chance to leave this evening on a hunt and want to take our TD. I will likely just leave in the morning. It is a one day hunt. We have had snow for a couple of days and I am sure the roads are salty. Should we avoid the...

Here was a hunt at Land Between the Lakes. This type of outing was my main attraction to a tear drop. I would no longer have to pitch a tent. (145 pounds...9 point...3 1/2 years old) Steve

I am adding the receiver hitch to our 550. I will use it for a cargo carrier. I know cargo carriers tend to twist and bow with the load. I want the carrier to be square and not rattle in the hitch. Has any one installed a cargo carrier and attached the edge towards the camper to the bumper? This...

All, I don't know how to say what I am thinking, but here goes. I discovered Camp-Inn on line. I was able to visit the web site then go about my business without thinking about it for days and even weeks. I even spent enough time away to forget the website address. As my visits to the website...

Last Sunday afternoon I decided to cut the grass. I usually move one of the cars or company truck out of the way. When I do this I cover one angle where a rock could get thru to the 550. I moved our 2002 Forester. I was doing something whereby I left the back hatch open. When I put the mower up...

We are looking at a Eccotemp L5. This is tankless propane water heater. Anybody got any experience with it? Also, when I have camped of line, I have needed to add water to the camper water system. Who has found an easy way to add h2o from a portable container? Thanks,

We have had some good fortune and want to add some stuff to our 550. I would like input on the accessories we are thinking to add. 1) Bumper...Do you think it will protect the body from a light bump? Does it feel strong? 2) Screen doors...Do they seem to be in the way when not in use? 3)...

We just got back from the weekend. We set up a big camp..We set up one of my biggest tent, a 19x12 four season, a smaller 9x10 tent, the easy up canopy, our 550 and the side tent. We had 5 children and 6 grandchildren. What a blast!!! But I digress. With all the tents to dry, I looked for a way...

Right now we use a 2002 Subaru Forester as the tow vehicle. I have yet to find a good location for the car side trailer wire mounting plug. Right now we run the wiring out the rear and just close the hatch on it. Anyone with experience on this vehicle? Thanks

18-ML-193-ML- Definitely a tip or trick :)

Something I just noticed today. I may have been told and maybe everybody else knows..... If I orient the stamped number on the door key or galley key to the side of the stamped number on the lock, it will go in. There is a common orientation of the number on the key to the number on the lock...
