    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Raven Ordered! [please wait...]

    Oh, and no hot water heater. Why? I can't think of a time ever when I have wanted or needed hot water out of a tap while camping. If we really want some we can heat water on the stove. Otherwise it is a bunch of extra weight and complexity that we just don't need in this camper.

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Air Bags for 2004 Tacoma

    I have no direct experience with this, but I have played someone who knows what the hell he is talking about on the internet. :) Wile researching what I might want to do on my 1/2 ton, I have read a lot of truck forums. A lot. It seems like folks with Tacomas have had problems with airbags...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Raven Ordered! [please wait...]

    OK, first let me say that I spent literally two years researching this thing, and reading and reading. I was very introspective and thinking about what we have liked and disliked in our camping past (although this is our first actual camper - up till now it has been "car camping using a tent")...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West I hope the camper is better than the buying

    Everything is all squared away, and yes the folks at FWC have been very helpful. It's just way more effort than going down to a dealership, picking one I like, doing some paperwork, and then driving home with it on the truck. :) And at ~ $20k moderately equipped I don't *personally* know many...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West I hope the camper is better than the buying

    Ugh, this has been a frustrating experience. I hope having the camper is a better experience than buying it has been. Between the closest dealerships being 650 miles away, and the poor service at one of them, and the bank throwing fits about the unbuilt camper and needing to get a serial...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Tapatalk

    I agree that a smartphone-friendly version of WTW would be great :) ...but on the stock Android browser it is possible to view and post now -- I'm posting this on my Droid Bionic. But, yes, either a dedicated app or just a mobile version for browser would be a worthwhile improvement! I posted...

    Any chance you guys might turn on the Tapatalk plug-in for IPBoard so that we can browse the forums natively on our iPhones, Androids, and iPads? :)

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West New FWC interior

    Ugh, that is hideous. To each their own. :) Thankfully they have the option to pay extra and get the European colors. May be the best $$$ add-on in my whole build.. ;)

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Wiring Camper to Truck

    So I am reading all these and wondering, as I place my order for a shiny new FWC - what *should* I be doing? I am ordering the two battery set-up. I have a 2008 Chevy 1500. What should I do to set this deal up? What happens with the "factory" install with regards to the connect to truck...
