    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Want To Buy Old Model Hawk pre-'90

    Just like it reads. I sold my Grandby to a very nice couple from this forum, and have a little cash to spend. I would like to get my hands on an older model Hawk to fit in my '96 Ferd Short box truck. I would like a heater, outlet, working fridge, & a sliding front window. I am willing to...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Anyone ever remove the heater & use a Buddy Heater?

    Has anyone ever removed the installed heater & just relied on a Buddy Heater, or something similar? If so, did you gain much storage? Pros & cons of this mod, please. We have a '92 Grandby & love it.

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Water heaters on the trail

    Only minor complaints, really. The pressure is a bit low, the hose is stiff until it warms up, it isn't too convenient to reach out & start/stop it. But, it is nice & simple. The pump & battery would be easy to replace, you can hack into the bulk propane on your camper if you want. (we just...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Water heaters on the trail

    Hi folks. I can't believe you are talking about something we solved last year. I bought one of the Coleman on demand heaters, a cheap hoola-hoop, 2 cheap shower curtains, some cheap plastic rings, & a deep rubbermaid storage bin & cobbed up a decent inside shower. For showering, i just...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Help w/ a power converter, please

    Thanks, NJ & Stan. The book you listed isn't what came with the converter i got, so maybe that's a huge part of my problem. Returning what i bought isn't an option, as I've had it sitting here for a couple months, and wasn't in a huge rush to dive into it. I need to get it done by April, for...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Help w/ a power converter, please

    Yes, it does have an outlet (inlet?) for 110 power in. It just goes into a breaker like you would have in a house, and supplies the power to the single 110 outlet, and the 110 supply for the refrigerator. We never run the fridge w/ electric unless in a campsite, but it would be nice to have...

    OK, first of all, i can finally access the forums from home. It seems the antique cable modem we had went bad & when we got a new one after the last round of tornadoes, I can get back on here. Now, to the question. I have searched the forums a little bit, and while i found a bit on installing...

    This may be an oddity, but i can't load this forum, or Wander The West on my home computer. I can load it here at work, or on my wife's laptop (that's linked into the same router as my desktop) but when i do a search, or hit my hotkey/favs button, it won't load. I get the DNS on IE, and the...

    Hi. I will be heading out to Col. on the 20th to buy/pick-up my first FWC, and I am seeking the guidance of the old-timers. The model is a '91 Granby, and it is a very nice looking two owner camper. My main concern is adding a shower asap for my wife's comfort on off-roading trips. I will be...
