After 29,000 miles with the camper on my 2004 Tundra, I have realized that it was not gonna do what I needed anymore. Too many scary situations in which I wasn't sure the truck would stop and it just isn't worth my life! So, I am having to retire my Tundra(although I'm not sure I'm gonna sell...

I wash the cushion covers after every trip. I have a front load washer. Used the gentlest cycle. Cold water. I threw them in the dryer on air dry... So humid in Florida, hard to hang dry!

I had about the same thing happen to my air bags. Had a 2 inch spacer on my airbag that was sent to us from Firestone Ride Rite! The bracket bent, but our airbag slid out of place. Had a bunch of bolts break as well luckily, a while ago, i had read about bringing extra bolts cause that...

We have a Tundra and originaly only did the air bags and E rated tires. Went to Alaska and everywhere in between last summer and had tons of problems with the air bags. Upon return home, replaced the shocks with Bilstein 5100's and got a custom leaf pack from Deaver made. Getting ready to put...

Thanks you guys.. I am going to wait for the one from Sure Power. Hoping they have it right by now Definitely a bit disappointed in FWC for not even contacting us about the recall. I bought the thing from them in the first place. Glad I bought my camper used!!!

Been MIA all winter. Had to work my butt off all winter for another big summer! On the 7 month journey to Alaska and back, I was pretty disappointed in the air bags. After much thought, I ended up getting a custom leaf pack made by Deaver Springs. Put them on the truck along with Bilstein...

Now we know who's trashing the campsite with Bud cans. She's a cheap date, what can I say. You can take the pittie outta the gutter, but......

The dogs sure enjoy beer in a can.... https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/FnZuR_B_GQyLnw2gJWYmyXm9ENq4GaHoQ2gCdzziXTk?feat=directlink

You mean the wind deflector that I used to have on my Tundra? I don't have a wind deflector on the Ford. Sorry Leadsled... that was meant for Lighthawk. Got you guys mixed up. But for you, my solar worked awesome. So glad you told me to get that monitor so I would know what was going on...

Here is a few. You can kinda see it. https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/Y_lJ9LswY_r5iP7mZPbwunm9ENq4GaHoQ2gCdzziXTk?feat=directlink https://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/fszxb4Q-HUIYEi0An1sX53m9ENq4GaHoQ2gCdzziXTk?feat=directlink...

That was at Swiftwater on the Kenai River, not Cunningham. TED: I love those Earthroamers too. Saw a few of them in Alaska. Must be nice to have all that cash. One was towing a really nice off road Jeep.... Maybe if I hit the lotto.....

This is the rear awning we made for our camper. An RV dealer gave us an awning from a big 40ft motorhome. It is from Dometic. Bought tracking at Campers World. Used pvc pipe with elbows and riveted it. Then used tent poles from awning corners(pvc elbows) to jack bracket holes. Worked...

That sounds so neat!! No body would have wanted to deal with my truck and camper with 5 months of dirt and dog hair!! Would have been a good deal for me though.... Haave fun.

It was an amazing summer... Have more cool pics. Especially some of the camper. Dealing with loading them from my phone to the computer... not so good at this stuff. Home now, saving for next summer. I used to love to fish here in Florida, but fishing for those salmon kinda spoiled me!

Fantastic day on the Kenai! Nothing better than smoking your own catch. Did you use any guide service? Saw lots of guides on the Kenai. They were all fishing for Kings. Very poor King run this summer. They ended up closing it. The red run was one of the best ever!!

Enjoyed the pics! That muddy rig and rainbow shot ought to go in the Truck Camper Magazine calendar. Thanks. We just finished washing the mud from the underneath of the truck! Bummed to be home, but so glad I was able to go... Saving for next summer

Hey Randy, you're back! We met at the Safeway in Homer, remember us (Mike and Lizzy). We had already done the Dempster at that point. What a drive eh? I did it by motorcycle and Lizzy chase trucked with the camper. It was so middy that just after we left Chicken they shut the highway down due...

Amazing pictues... Looks like an awesome trip.

So that's where you've been, randygirl! Since you hadn't posted in months I figured you'd left us. No internet connection on the road? So...will there be a massive trip report to follow sometime soon? Didn't leave you guys!! You were instrumental on getting me ready to go. Pure...

We have just returned from 5 months on the road.Dogs loved it. They ride in the backseat (xtra cab)that we converted to a doggie heaven. Took the seat out, put plywood down, and covered with dog beds. They sleep in the camper. My female is 55 pounds and she ALWAYS sleeps in the upper bed. My...
