We paid $4.85 at Sams in Roseville a few days ago. Bridgeport and Lee Vining always run $1.50 more than anywhere else. When driving 395 we gas up at Topaz Lake or Walker heading south and Bishop heading north so we can get past those areas without needing to buy gas.

Rather than lessons, I believe Monte was self-taught. Not only does that get you a straight pass into heaven, it gives you martyr status.

What is different between the usual mounting and a permanent one? We left out FWC on our truck full time just using the eyebolt setup that came with it?

You mentioned it is empty. The more full a refrigerator is, the less energy it takes to keep it cold. Essentially once everything in it is cold it those items tend to help keep the fridge cold. When we load our fridge for a trip, we freeze a few items (soups, chili, meat and fish, sauces...

It is good of you to try to reach out to the new owners with info like this. Depending on how much time you want to put into finding them, there is also a Four Wheel Campers group on Facebook that is pretty active.

To lower a spare tire from the mount under the truck bed you insert a long rod through a hole usually right above the license plate. That hole is blocked when the tailgate is down. So you will need to find a different way to lower the spare or carry it somewhere else if you leave the tailgate in...

Vic is very knowledgeable on things electric. He helped us when planning our Tiger build. Also, Ski3pin has converted his ATC to lithium. He may be able to answer questions as well.

I think with no fridge, heater, or batteries, around $10k would be more appropriate. But if the group consensus is the $13,500, it would be awesome for you to prove me wrong and put that larger amount towards your new rig. :) Just a thought - how long until your new rig is ready? If you just...

No experience with wag bags but we did use a Thetford Porta-potti in our FWC for years. Lawnmower man has it right, I gagged every time I emptied it out after a trip. I now find emptying our black tank at a dump station to be a pleasant experience in comparison.

On many of our trips to Nevada and Death Valley we enjoy watching the jets out training. It is exciting and fun when they make a low level run several hundred feet over head. They have even acknowledged Mrs. Ted's wave with a wing wave back. Not much info on what may have happened to the...

Mr. Nomad, Marc Wassman was an active member of WTW and did a number of rallies while he was building the XP campers. Many of the WTW members from back then are quite familiar with the XP camper and several have owned them. It sounds like you traveled in yours the way it was designed to be used...

There are ways to make your own Jiffy Pop style popper using pie tins. So combine that with your gourmet popping corn or home made popping corn. Best of both worlds - quality popcorn done over the campfire!

Interior lowers costs for wind and solar on public lands after raising for oil by Breanne Deppisch, Energy and Environment Reporter | June 01, 2022 11:15 AM Brought to you by the Washington Examiner - the same cutting edge newspaper that told us about border ranchers finding Muslim prayer...

Perfect. Thanks all. And yes, Chris, it was a great trip. We really hit a nice weather window while we were up there.

Mrs. Ted took this photo on our San Juan Islands trip. Looks like a type of fly trap or orchid but I have not been able to ID it.

This is true. Here is one of Donna's from the same place a week earlier.
