Thank you Monte and Craig. Craig, a hanger for the mirror was offered but we already have one from using our annual passes.

When you finally get your official Geezer Card from the U.S. Government.

Thanks for the update. We are right on two years with our Tiger. Not quite logging as much time as you but not doing bad - 29k miles in those two years. We also are very happy with ours. Our air compressor failed but Jay from Provan was road tripping across the U.S. doing repairs. We were...

What year truck will you be putting this on? Back when this camper was built truck beds had straight walls. Now they curve around so the tailgate is narrower. So if you have a newer truck, you may need to make the whole floor section of the camper narrower.

It actually is not that bad in our neck of the woods today. Sunny and we will be in the 60s. Last March we had 22 days in the 70s and 80s. this March we hit 70 one day. We are all tired of it, but it sure is nice to have some water again.

Whoever came up with the saying "A job well done need never be done again" apparently did not live in snow country. It will be interesting to see a photo later this week after four days straight of heavy rain.

"fat skis and plastic boots" I like this one showing the path up and down.

Could you remove the stock push/pull board with a pipe floor flange and threaded piece of pipe? Then simply unscrew the pipe and set it a side while the roof is in the up position?

The weight of the camper top by itself is usually enough to lower it. You do have the door open when lowering the top, correct? Were you able to lower it prior to installing the struts? If so, remove the front struts so you can lower it and definitely get the speaker stand for raising it...

Craig, everything on this van is out of our budget. :lol: And that is on top of not having the tools or skills shown throughout this build.

I'm enjoying my morning ritual of checking out WTW and reading this thread about coffee... as I enjoy my morning Diet Coke. Excuse me as I head for the bomb shelter.

I believe Alaskan campers are hard sided popups. You could check them out for inspiration. Otherwise, I would consider just selling the FWC and buying a used hard sided camper. The FWCs hold their value well, so you could probably sell it for more than what a hard sided camper of similar age...

Phil, Glad I could bring back some memories for you. I was a recreation diver and have been fortunate to see white tip sharks, sea lions, and manta rays while diving. But this was always in the daytime, warm water, and good visibility. But diving among what is essentially a swimming SUV along...

Thanks for the kudos on doing a report again, guys. Frank, we did visit Ano Nuevo many years ago. As I recall, there are not any places to camp nearby, making it easier to do a multiple day visit to this colony. BTW, hope you are staying high and dry as part of the new "island" off of...

PART 4 – Back at camp. Returning to camp we decided to stop at the beach across from camp to see how the high surf had affected it. The dunes mention and the structures shown in Part 1 were gone. Instead the surf had scoured the beach, flattening everything and piling debris against the raised...

PART 3 – Nature’s Fury WARNING: This section depicts the effects of a storm and high surf on the rookery. You may wish to skip it. Wednesday night there was quite a storm. Our campsite was well protected but still our Tiger rocked in the wind and rain beat against it. It was high tide as we...
