    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Thoughts wanted: How to use this space

    Tilt at about 30 degrees, take off the right side. Unhook cable. Then slide out the left side. Unhook cable. [MikeSmartAss] According to the 2007 Tundra Owners Manual, page 37, unhook cables first, then tilt tailgate 45 degrees. [/EndMikeSmartAss] :p ;) :D :o Mike

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Shakedown cruise

    There are many more options for ethical camping in undeveloped areas with a Hawk than a pterodactyl! THANKS for actually answering the question I wanted to ask, but did not word correctly! :D That is the main reason we have an ATC camper on order... we do not like people, generators...

    Great pictures of the Grand Canyon! One of the great things about our Hawk camper is parking convenience. Are there only designated camping places around Grand Canyon, or can you just find any place you want (on government land)? Mike

    Erod, very nice pictures! When we went to Maine, we saw a ga-zillion "Caution Moose" signs. We did not see even the arse of a moose. Did you actually see any? Hmm, I like the emergency tarp setup... do you have roof racks, or what did you fasten the tarp to? Mike

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Convertor Questions

    It's not a contest, it's an exchange of information and we all learn in the process. I am sorry I gave the impression this was a contest on my part. Since I am investing $13,000 for a bed on wheels, my nature is to research and understand so that I do not have to spend more money and more time...

    Hmmm... http://www.ase-supply.com/product_p/31922.htm The model 31922 Surepower dual battery isolator is a heavy duty type rated at 240 amps. This is a Schottky type isolator, which means that you have no voltage drop through the rectifiers. This is the unit for those of you with high output...

    Dear Mark, "Friendly is good." YES :D "Electricity is mysterious." YES :eek: Pete is correct. More precisely stated, a Silicon diode requires about a 0.7 volt electromotive force in order for it to "turn on." ok and ok In terms of mixing batteries in parallel banks, I am pretty certain...

    Pete, I have been reading Introduction to Batteries and Charging Systems on the Sure Power web site, and I am not sure the following is true...Electronic isolators may not be a good way to go if they use diodes to isolate because the diode may insert a one-half volt drop in the charge circuit...

    I like the rear storage cabinet you ordered, but it will greatly cut your visibility when backing or changing lanes, you can see alot out the little window next to the rear door. The closet is about 12" wide, 48" high and 20 1/4" deep. We normally put two shelves in it. Wow, the HUGH storage...

    I've an extra bulkhead assembly that I'll probably just throw away. But it would make a good set of patterns if anybody wants to do their own couch mod. I can UPS ground it if anybody's interested. (Wouldn't it be cool if the thing made the rounds to several of you fellers?) Hmmm... I will...
