    My thoughts on Overland Journals FWC article

    I would certainly agree that a properly implemented hinged door would be superior in most locations. Although the long, short cabinet above the couch - I think a slider makes more sense there. DD, we added two fold down doors with mag latches and safety travel latches at that location, added...

    My thoughts on Overland Journals FWC article

    When I first added the overlay doors to our 2006 Eagle one of the main criteria was safety latches. I can't believe FWC didn't add them. If you have these doors and they don't stay closed there are many options available to remedy the problem such as barrel bolts, bungees, or even better...

    Horror Stories

    I've gotta say you guys and your stories make me glad the worst thing I've been stuck in is snow, up to the doors but at least it shovels easily.

    Someone Stop me, Oops, too late!

    Progress looks very good. A quick question though, and excuse me if you've already addressed this, but do you have a manual rise backup plan? It might just be the engineer in me but some type of ability to hand crack or otherwise lift the top in the event of emergency would seem to make sense.

    So what did you do to your camper this week?

    Well it's not a camper but I did the fan upgrade to the 14 speed remote control in the Casita. Love having the very low speed option, quiet and still vents the interior perfectly.

    Replace the modified black slider with 1/8" plex and you can see through the whole thing, very easy to do.

    Less War. More Parks.

    Cort, you have a very valid point concerning the appropriateness of expressing my opinions on this forum, really not the place for it. So I've edited the post and we can go back to the more important issue of supporting our park system.

    Less War. More Parks.

    Absolutely ski, the waste in government is obscene and if cleaned up could provide all the funding required to support our parks. In rereading my original post I realized the comments are not appropriate for this forum so I've edited out my personal opinion regarding the efficiency of the gov't...

    WTW Official Statement on Advocacy

    I'm with you completely Mr. Dog. Funding for parks has become a big issue here in California and we still don't know what the outcome will be. It would be sad to see many of them closed as well as anything on the national level. Advocate on fearless leader.

    Sighted in Truckee - us!

    Ted, It was great seeing you two out on the road, just wish we'd had more time to shoot the s%%t but we were late meeting my wife's sister at Sugar Bowl, maybe next time. I'm wondering if I should share the details of why we were able to catch up with you on Donner Pass Road, something about a...

    Winter in Wyoming

    kc, great report and pictures. I wouldn't be one of those to even ask what you do in winter, I know from experience more or less though about now I've had all the winter I want. To me the town sounds great, this place has gotten much too big and slicked out over the past 20 years. We would...

    For sale: FWC Eagle + Nissan 4X4

    wow, 12k for an 06 Eagle, that's just a little less than we paid for our 06 Eagle new. I think I'd reconsider the camper price.

    AirBags for a Eagle camper on a Tacoma?

    I agree with Cort, bags are great for leveling and controlling ride but I wouldn't want to depend on them alone for carrying load. I had an add a leaf and bags and the combo worked great on the Tacoma. If I had it to do again I think I'd go with bags and supersprings for the versatility.

    Spring Time!

    ski, sunny and low 40's here sure has a spring feel to it, I just hope it's true. If it doesn't snow for the rest of the year I'll be one very happy camper.
