grey ,club? cab tacoma, with white fwc?, north bound on I-5 in burlington wa. Tues the 5th about 3 in afternoon. Took a quick picture but resolution not good enough to help. Couldn't catch up, or get over to the other lane in time. Nice looking set up. Only second one seen in last few months in...

Thanks for posting this up Phil. Ironic, cause i just dropped my truck off tonight to have linex installed tomorrow! I was going to do it myself, this next summer, but got my first scratch on the new truck last week,ouch. Figured by summer all the scratches would be rusting and create more work...

Nice start. I too look forward to more. Can second the mosquitos in areas so dry, you would have never thought. Ran into them a little south of Othello along the Columbia.

When your bosses are the age of your kids. When the " kids " at work start lifting the heavy stuff for me. Cigarettes from the vending machine jeez. The only. Time I ever smoked was about 7th grade on Boy Scout camp outs. Would ride our bikes to the vending machine behind jc penny's in Ventura.

Too funny, and sad sign of the times. Most non californios would laugh and say, " only in cal." But maybe not so much any more.

Best of luck Bill and all. I have also worn glasses since 3rd grade. Went to 4 different docs for lasik, but no go. Last one said " just have cataract surgery. Will need eventually, one of most performed operations in U.S". I passed as only in mid 50s. But tempting. Another thing to think...

Good on ya Phil. Fun to have it on its way. Thanks for the further input on the bed rug. After the first little scratch in the truck bed today hauling shelving, Decided to have a spay on liner done. Was going to wait for warm weather and roll on myself. But by then might be twice the work...

Great blog. Been on my list for yrs. Almost made it 35 yrs ago in my Dodge Dart, but couldn't quite make it thru one wash. Another more recent memory jogged by the road closed sign. I went around one about 5 yrs ago outside of Coalinga Ca. A road I had taken before. About 10 miles in at a...

Hellova deal. Wish I'd seen it a month ago!

There you go Phil, these posts have real life experience all over the map. Be nice if could go with the spray in liner and call it good. I imagine a camper shifting around has a lot to do with what kind of roads taken, how tightly staked down etc. the majority of what I have read do need some...

Thats one thing that struck me on the camper tour last wkend. After reading about aluminum framing and all, the fwc, alaskan, and nstar all have wood touching the bed of the truck. Doesn't seem smart. But hopefully all epoxy or other magic potion protection. You are certainly correct about...

I researched this last week Wallowa. Seems folks use everything from horsestall mats, rubber mats,to foam pads. The foam sounds best to me as is the lightest. Will find out in 8-12 weeks when I get my new n.star 850! I am going to use those interlocking foam pads they use at work stations etc...

I just want to say a big thanks to every one here for sharing all the great info. All of the below is based on a camper to go on a stock gas chevy 2500hd with a 8 foot bed. Will just be my wife and I, with lots of toys. Hopefully out for a month or two at a time. We did a tour this last weekend...

One of my favorite authors. Have all of his books. "Most of my wandering in the desert I have done alone. Not so much by choice as from necessity- I generally prefer to go into places where no one else wants to go....desert solitaire. Brought home a new 2015 chev 2500 4 x. A week ago. Going...
