Turtle Wax brand bug and tar remover seems to work very well. I forgot the active ingredient but one wipes liquid on, let stand and then wipe off the slurry. It also seems to leave a slippery invisible coating. David Graves

Hello all, Does anyone know what black paint FWC uses for the interior plywood edges in a 2019 or newer camper ? Does anyone have a source for the black screwed on corner edging used in a 2019 or newer camper ? Many thanks David Graves

What is THE S 101 ? Most pull outs in my area are signed no occupied vehicle parking 12.01 am till 5:30 am.

So you put the fuzzy portion on the cabinet and the grippy on the screen ? Metal screening or fabric ? Any sort of pull tab ? Many thanks David Graves

There is no camping on most 101 scenic overlooks....that is not to say that some folks don't drive out here and park their motorhomes complete with picnic tables for a week at a time. In my county there is not enough enforcement resource to deal with it. Expect trash and lots of bio hazzard...

On this topic if tangentially... Has anyone got an image of mosquito screens for the turnbuckle doors ? A former member was making and marketing them although I believe his had the older sliding doors. I would be interested to see what others have done.... Traveling east in the fall and it...

They can be very slippery...a traffic hazard. Are they in fact the historical referenced Mormon scourge ? David Graves

WHAT motorcycle ???

Hi Jon You took the stealth approach while mine is bright obnoxious Blue like all the young people and their "paint the brake calipers" syndrome. Mine is cooler and may soon be featured on Overland Journal and sold to the masses for their daily drivers....along with snorkels. David Graves PS...

Hi Chet I routed my battery hot lead back to camper in the blue plastic corrugated conduit used to route household wire in metal stud residential construction...light blue color, 3/4" ID and available at any H-D or Lowes. Secured the conduit every 24" and routed it within the frame rails of...

Weather Weirdness.... We had to spend the weekend in Seattle helping sister unpack. Driving south Saturday along the coastal route we noted a sudden drop in temps from 95 to 77 (!) near Raymond/West Bend. Only explanation I have is an onshore breeze from Willapa Bay (and the Pacific)...

Most of us have had less than good experience with insurance...even though it is an important part of our lives. We have to pay an extra premium for our FWC with Sublimity Ins. ( I think owned by United Heritage ) The agent asked me to declare value when writing the extra coverage...so I hope...

Howdy Lots of thoughtful design went into your kitchen box. David Graves

Yep I see ...so you can raise the leg and instant table....did you power it ? :) Congrats on the sale. DG

Howdy I have a folding crossways bunk of 3/4 cabinet grade plywood and only proper support at either side. It supports me and sleeping gear and folds away for stowage quickly. Why did you need the center support ? All the best. David Graves

Howdy But it is a side window yeah ? So the A/C unit does not stay there for transport ? I bet is cools and dries the camper out fast ! DG

Thanks Is that the side egress window ? So , do you remove it when not in use ? Thanks for the reply....how many BTU ? David

I wonder if there are any great ideas out there for adapting one of the little portable 110 V. A/C units to an FWC camper ? We are likely to go east late August and September and I know just how wicked the humidity can be.... We might even consider staying in a few RV campgrounds where we...

Doctor Bronners' camp suds! Damn ! We are really old ! ; )

I thought I would bump this thred. A great many folks have expressed interest in buying the camper alone and I am now willing to sell it separately. I am not gonna remove it from the Chevy unless I have a buyer. We just may make a few more trips with the Hawk, who knows ? David

Clint Eastwood can sing ?????
