    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West New Tires on my K2500

    Six tires would have put me out of the market for these tires thats for sure! Sunman, I have an Edge programmer. You can adjust for alot of different things and tires included. I have it set on the lowest economy setting and it helped a bit in gas milege as well.

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Chevy Notch

    I notched my ATC Panther to fit my 2007 Chevy. Not too hard to do, just takes a bit of courage. Measure carefully and make the cuts, and then make blocks to cover the gaps. I used glue and barbed nails to secure the blocks which are mitered to fit the angles. I have to pull my camper off today...

    Here is an option I have considered. Might be more pratical with a fixed top rather than a pop up but used in many applications from vans to rv's. http://www.windysmithy.co.uk/html/woodburners.htm
