    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Two Men Sentenced For Rock Art Vandalism in Nevada

    Good conviction but as others stated, a longer term and maybe hand scrub the paint off with a toothbrush for 4-5 years in the middle of summer with people watching would have been better... I have no empathy for people that do this kind of stuff.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West FanTastic Fan 7350 for sale (SOLD).

    I have this Fantastic Fan (model 7350) that I replaced due to cracked edges near the mounting holes (see picture). Everything else worked when I pulled it out. I also found the remote that is picture but it's different from what's on the box. It has the rain sensor, reversable, 13? speeds, auto...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Any suggestions on 12v interior lighting?, and fan for fridge

    If you search the forum(s) you'll find quite a bit about adding fans to the refrigerator. Pretty easy, especially if you have (or doing) work on other parts of your camper. I had mine hooked up with a switch and a thermositor. We used some usb rechargable LED puck lights in cabinets, etc...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Birch Creek Ranch OR

    We were down there recently. As others stated, if it's wet, it could be a challenge. The road is quite "fun" and if you take it slow, it's fine. We only had a few water crossings and a while back (don't remember when but probably 10 years ago) they did re-route the road on the steepest...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Looking to replace/ upgrade batteries

    I'm sure battleborn are good batteries but you can "make" (build) your own for a lot less. Check out Will Prouse's webpage/videos on tons of info. I can email you my build sheet too if you'd like but it's a few years old now but will give you an idea of the parts/costs. I had to add a...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Backcountry/Roadside Camping Rules Change DVNP

    Bill, I am not sure I agree with your assessments as I like to disperse camp because it gives me freedom from having to plan my route exactly and gives me freedom. Having to make reservations becomes a process of 'click and win' BUT I agree that it would restrict and control crowds. I don't...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West New Inreach device: Garmin Inreach Messenger

    Love these devices, don't love the pricing plans. The recreation plan that really has something you could use is $35/month unless you do the annual price of $25. The device cost $300. You can suspend the service but I think there's an annual fee too? They have a lot of small print that is...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West trying to understand the camper battery system

    All I can say is that we can run our 3 way refrigerator (on propane), refrig. fan on full time when stopped, charge phones, run ceiling fans, lights, etc. like you do and we can go multiple days w/o an issue. The big caveat is that we have a 120ah LifePO4 battery.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Lift Panel Replacement Help

    that would be a good idea... you could also see the wiring back there.... I just wonder if there are any other reasons it's solid; maybe FWC or ATC could chime in?

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Are all lithium 12v batteries created equally?

    You can build your own for a lot less. As Vic mentioned, check out Will's website/forum. I have a document on what I purchased a few years ago if you'd like it but it's a bit outdated now (I suspect).

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Is this 2017 FWC fleet worth the sellers firm price of $21,000?

    A lot of nice options but I would suggest that you consider if you need/want all of them? We would never use a hot water system so that would add complexity in our situation; your situation might differ. I woul d also suggest that if you are interested you move rather quickly. These things...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Should FWC campers be marketed towards Tacomas?

    I totally agree. I get why people want to use 1/2 ton trucks; I did it for > 10 years but I had a v8, etc. Always was worried about brakes, etc. and even w/ E rated tires, airbags, etc. that's still a lot of weight.

    I'm pretty sure I know where/what lake you were at and glad you had a great time! Looks like you missed all the smoke we are having now :-( I've been meaning to get to the Imnaha to chase some bull trout. I'd be curious to know how the drive in is and how far up you went? Oh, I see the...

    We were just talking about the range last night with some friends. I think you are probably right on the range and infrastruture plus you'd never get anywhere you want to go and then worry about how to get out if the charge is too low (I guess planning trips would necessitate way more...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West New emergency satellite communication device?

    I think other phone manufactuers have had this for a while. Not an apple innovation and I doubt they are the first (granted they'll get all the press though :-) ).

    I had these made for our rear entry FWC and now we have a Flatbed Hawk so they aren't being used. They slide into the hitch and have 2 steps. The lower step slides out the bottom and there's a hand rail (we never used it). A little wire brush and new paint and it'll be like new. Very heavy...

    We were at a music festival this last weekend and found this gem.... I think the date code is 1991. We're FWC owners but thought this was quite the dinosaur!
