    The first for me. 06Sep21 around 2pm. Hawk on, I think, a silver colored GMC/Chevy Extended Cab heading north on WI42 (the detour route) north of Two Rivers, WI. Maybe heading to Door County. WI42 runs along Lake Michigan shoreline is places. Did not have WI plate. I was cutting the grass...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West 2011 Fleet LED Conversion

    I ordered the 12v/dc fluorescent interior lamps on my 2010 Hawk and have since replaced them with LED units along with the rear light about 4 years ago. Ordered the lamps from M4Products and have been satisfied with the results.

    Yes on Polebridge. If you care to see something interesting in BC take Canada 16 to BC-37 (Dease Lake Hwy) north at Kitwanga to Nisga'a Hwy (at one time it was called Nass Road), head east to Nisga'a Memorial Lava Lake Prov Camp Ground. There is a CG at Dragon Lake prior to the Prov Camp...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Hitch Mounted Cargo Carrier

    Thank you michgobblue for the info, The Stowaway looks like the swingaway platform is above the receiver mount, maybe 6 inches. It has been on my mind for some time, debate over a cargo hitch vs a small cargo trailer. I have been in places that backing out was the only way out. Plan on trip to...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Helper springs (leaf springs?) if camper not on the truck year round

    I had coil over shocks. Did alright till the shock part doesn't shock anymore. Went with "AirLift" air bags and wish I had done this when I bought the Hawk in 2010. Installed them myself in one afternoon. Nice that they can be adjusted. BTW the set was purchased from SD Trucks, about $250.

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West FWC poptop Truck Campers allowed in grizzly bear campgrounds?

    All the places camped and never was asked to leaving or even putting the top down at night. My pref is the NF's and have not been confronted in WI or the UP of MI. Hate to say this but on the trip to AK and NW Canada I could count on both hands the number of bears that were seen, 16,000 miles...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West LED light conversion

    Changing to LED. Give M4 Products a look, they have a complete conversion for campers. Change all my lamps to LET'S on my 2010 Hawk. M4 has a conversion for the fluorescent bulbs. I went with the bright lite and what a difference. Sent from my SM-T560NU using Wander The West mobile app

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Do you use your dinette on a regular basis?

    Did not mention this, but by cutting the 2 inches off the table it allows the fold over couch to fold over without moving the table. 2 inches is a rounded number for cutting the table. Tom

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Do you use your dinette on a regular basis?

    Just like Bill D, The table is not easy to use and is not storable. After using my camper a few times something needed to be done. With the help of my son-in-law, a cabinet maker, we cut about 2" off the length of the table, rounded the corners, cut the groove for the molding and then...

    Great Idea, There is the Ottawa Lake Rec Area (WI State Park System) close to Sean's place that could handle a gathering. Sean and Diana do get away now and then. Could also do it at his place place but there would be a lot of prep work. Wouldn't it be something to see all of his customers...

    Hello MuleHawk, Enjoy the trip, been there done that and might do it again. If you are heading to MI have you given any thought of crossing Lake MI on the ferry? It leaves out of Manitowoc, WI. to Ludington, MI. The SS Badger connects US10 on each side. Enjoy the trip and the FWC
