I don’t seem to have the ability to pull the knob to disengage the motor. How hard do you have to pull? I’m pulling fairly hard.

I upgraded to the motorized lid Fantastic Fan a few years ago when having hail damage repaired, but primarily because it struggled to stay closed and often flopped around. I’ve never figured out how to use it, specifically how to open it. I’ve tried many combinations of buttons, and ultimately...

The website doesn’t bother me, but I have tried to stay away from the retro angle. Primarily removing the rims in favor of a more modern black with all terrain tires. I looked into changing the fenders…that alone would make a big difference for me…in part for clearance. The rest I’m fine...

It’s a bit of a personal thing…if you’re expecting to be uncomfortable, you will be. Prior to first entry, I’d open all the curtains, windows and roof vent before entry. Personally I’ve never had that sensation with my wife and I. Throw a couple dogs in there and that may change, but it’s...

I did a bit of grinding when I changed out rims and tires for the same reasons. The front of the fender is where it was tight…I didn’t do much there. Did you need to? I’d still like a bit more clearance, though so far hasn’t been an issue. I’d like the extra clearance too…probably or in my...

Colorado has become our favorite summer place to visit. Free is great too!

Get yourself some cheap RV level blocks at Walmart…I carry 2 at a time as that’s generally all that’s needed for side to side. Then use the front Jack for front to rear leveling. The drop the rear stabilizers.

Two of my friends had blow outs on their trailers this summer, in both cases tread looked new but when they looked at the tire dates they were 6 and 9 years old. One was a simple tire change, the other exploded into the interior of the airstream. 5 years seems like a good rule of thumb.

I have a SnoMaster fridge…too big to fit in the rear of the trailer so it’s always in my 4Runner. Haven’t had any issues in bear country…yet! Friends that have had both prefer the efficiency of the SnoMaster to the Dometic. For a few years I ran it off my car battery, but have since shifted...

It weighs less than a roof top tent!

Air Conditioning?

Congratulations! I have learned one thing about gas struts, if they aren't used their life is shortened. My Porsche 911 has them for the front 'trunk'. I bought it used and I noticed the guy washing the car had a piece of wood used to prop it open. He said he has that for the 911's because...

Still rolling the same wheel/tire!

Purchased land near Big Bend National Park...no more concerns about reservations in our favorite part of Texas!

We tow with either our Honda Pilot or 4Runner, both do very well. The new Passport would be our choice if we sold the Pilot.

RVing? or Camp Inn trailer? Very different answers.

Another owner does 50% Walbernize and 50% Flitz Metal polish. I'd used Flitz with success on other items in the past, so had some. For me it's been a great combo. I made the mistake of writing a vacation message on the back of our sandy back hatch. After washing, it looked like it would...

This may be an option too...seems it's a trucker related item! :) 2 1/2" Round Flat LED Clearance Marker Light With our without the rubber grommet. This looks like the one I bought. Amazon.com: (2) White 2.5" Round 13 LED Custom Mini Reverse Backup Lights / Grommets / Wires: Automotive

I bought two different versions just in case...it was two years ago so don't recall which worked, but I believe they appeared to be the same thing; Amazon.com: 13 LED 2 1/2" Auxiliary/Utility Light - White LED/Clear Lens: Automotive . The other one I bought was Amazon.com: Partsam (2)...

I swapped mine for LED as soon as I bought it. Back-up lights as well...that was a huge difference...actually lit up the area I was backing into!
