Fall is on the way here in the Midwest. Farmers are cleaning the combines and hauling last seasons grain. Male humming birds have left and females are still on the feeders. Young pheasants are molting and gaining fall colors. Always a special time here watching the transition into fall/winter...

Nice! Lol

Nice!

Added gas struts for hold opens. Apexstone 80N/18lbs 7” Gas Spring purchased on Amazon. This strut has the right amount of hold open power. Really a nice option, surprised FWC doesn’t install as standard on the front dinette. Much easier to R+R gear. Cheap upgrade for the convenience gained...

Sean Dempsey our FWC dealer recommended we take a look at their products. I spent time researching and talking to the company representatives before committing. These are made in WI. and are very well engineered. The build quality and ease of use sold me on the purchase. Refreshing to see a...

It’s a 160W Overland panel.

I’m not familiar with the products you list for your project. But I have knowledge of a product that might work and be more cost effective. I used GOOF OFF Pro-Strength for boat carpet glue remover. Worked great and is easy to work with. One caution with any of these products is to use the...

I’ve been finishing modifications on our new Grandby this week. Finally got around installing the Yakima streamline system. Components are very well engineered and excellent quality. The track was installed at the FWC factory. The system instructions are pictorial without written verbiage. They...

Thanks for posting your whoops and fix. Newbie to the FWC ownership and knowledge learned here is invaluable. Glad things worked out on your repair. Wayne

Needed a better riding area for our golden. Carpenter skills (retired) still coming in handy. Scrap wood and a old yoga mat with double faced tape finished the project. This will make the ride a little easier on all.

Performance update with the new camper with 400 miles on the combined rig. Bags at 20 psi, camper weight of 1520, BFG/E tires front 60psi, rear 65psi. ECO 3.5 with 10 speed trans set on tow haul mode. Acceleration and overall handling is excellent. Cornering at corners marked 45 mph was a breeze...

Nice set up! Maybe my next ford will include the heavy payload package. Could you elaborate on the differences between a 2150 truck and yours. Also MPG without the camper and ride quality. Thanks for all the comments. Wayne

This is the first of a few mods on our new Grandby. Additional 2” gel and charcoal memory foam added to the cabover. White caulk line and a electric fillet for sizing. I cut a piece for the standard bed and a extension piece for the king option. The fillet knife cut the foam like butter with...

Great report, thanks for sharing. Amazing pics!

That is going to be a super combination! Post some pics when you can.

Camper nesting by Carol. Ready to roll.

Waiting is over. Cleaned and road ready. Really excited to finally have the camper home. Sean Dempsey, our FWC dealer, made the purchase easy. Great guy with an old school attitude. He was a three hour drive for us and well worth the buying experience. I highly recommend him if you are in...

. Keep the good reads coming!

Wow! Thanks so much for sharing your experiences in MN. Your details are amazing and comprehensive. MN is a annual fishing destination for myself, my wife and Paige (our golden retriever). Love the clam bug enclosure! MN. mosquitoes are voracious in the shade. The canoe and kayak construction is...

Congrats on the F-150 purchase great rides. No advice on your lighting question. Any chance you could post details on your set up once completed? Enjoy your setup! Wayne

My next truck will be a extended cab / 8’ and probably a F-250. That’s down the road in a couple of years. Thanks for the well wishes. Wayne
