    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Where Do You Carry "Stuff"?

    I have a 2018 Raven shell on a Silverado Crew Cab. I have a front receiver mount for an extra spare when I need it and a Wilco Hitchswing for bikes when we carry them. I mounted an AT gas can carrier on the jack mount. I'm trying to avoid the roof just due to weight pushing it up and height, but...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Best Cold Weather Tips

    I ended up buying three of these: https://www.nemoequipment.com/product/switchback/ for under the mattress. We also put Reflectix over the windows. Lastly, I replaced the thermostat with one that will tell the internal temp. It was set to cycle at a 1 degree interval and I left it there. We...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Repeater freqs in Death Valley?

    We were in DV for a night last week (in Panamint out 178). It was crowded in the paved areas, but we were well away from it all 8 miles off pavement and up a little high clearance trail. I can vouch that the InReach works out there. We just got one and sent a test message to make sure I knew how...

    I'm no electrician, so forgive me if this is a dumb question. I set it up and made it through the first round of checks OK (turns on with raising temp, and off with lowering temp). It wouldn't run fan only though. My circuit only has two wires and my previous thermostat didn't have a fan only...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West ARB Rapid Deflator

    I got it figured out. I assumed that when the plunger shot out the core was completely out. NOOOOO! I had to push it back in and keep unscrewing until I was certain it disengaged. Then...WOOSH! I dropped 15 psi in 22 seconds! Thanks!

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Fire Season is Not Over - 395 closed

    The power of high wind urban fire is absolutely crazy. Last month we lost 2800 structures just north of Ashland in two small towns, Phoenix and Talent, in less than 24h. It looks like Dresden up there. It is emotionally mind boggling to see it! What's stunning for this most recent fire in Mono...

    That's why I went that direction. Plus, I don't always want the same psi and some of the Stauns style ones aren't agile to switch. Thanks!

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West ARB Rapid Deflator

    That's got to be what happened. With the core out, air *should* rush out.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West ARB Rapid Deflator

    It pushed it out with pressure. It might have started that though when it was only partially removed. I'll mess with it again tomorrow. Thanks!

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West ARB Rapid Deflator

    Maybe I didn't get the core fully out the first go 'round. I'll mess with is again. It indeed should be much faster! How long would you estimate it takes to drop 15 psi?

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West ARB Rapid Deflator

    Anyone use one of these? I was just holding my gauge partially on to reduce pressure, but I bought the ARB, hoping it would be faster. Other than not having to hold it on, it doesn't seem to be any faster. Maybe I'm using it wrong, but there isn't much to do wrong. What's been your experience...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Cooper AT3 LT vs XLTs can't run the XLT's unless I go bigger.

    I switched from 265/65 18 AT3 LTs to 275/65 18 so that I could get a E Rated Wildpeak. I haven't noticed a drop in mileage. My guess is that diligent inflation habits would have more to do with that than the minimal change in size. Just a guess though. This is a cool size comparison tool if...

    I had a little concern about that, but I figure if I change them way more than they need be, I’ll be OK. A new set of good quality alkalines per year ought to be sufficient. Fingers crossed!
