There have been several posts about Six Pac campers here on WTW over the years. Let's see if I can post a search for them.... Google search of WTW for the term 'Six-Pac'

Hopefully someone with direct experience with a Six-Pac camper will comment. In the meantime.... Some interesting background info from 2007 ---> Truck Camper Magazine article: Four Wheel, Six Pac, and One Man Also: I recently ran onto this ---> There's still a Six-Pac web site with manuals...

Thanks for the detail, roverjohn. I was wondering exactly that-- whether you run any straps front-to-back. The other detail is very helpful for us in thinking about how the setup would work for our individual rigs and what that would mean during loading and unloading. Appreciate it! .

Personally, I'm looking forward to the "How to Mount Your Shasta-Wings on Jack Brackets" thread once this trend takes hold. .

roverjohn--- I'm not sure what you mean by 'spread the load around'. Could you explain? Any other lessons-learned from your experience? (Preferred strap or ratchet designs, rated-strength numbers, fitting or tensioning, tips for releasing the ratchet under load, etc) .

Alu-Cab Khaya -- Kimbo (the shaky video's not easy to watch but it's an interesting use of straps)...

I believe the most common problem is exceeding the 500K-per-post limit for photos (that's per post, not per photo). The trick is re-sizing photos so you don't exceed that limit. Unfortunately, resizing works differently on the various operating systems and may not be easy. (If you happen to be...

Four Wheel Campers Hawk FWC - $14000 (Cave Creek) .

Renogy's DC-to-DC charger as reviewed in the video below looks very interesting --- 20 and 40 amp models, lead-acid and lithium battery charging profile selections by DIP switch, temperature compensation (option), relatively inexpensive. Hopefully we'll be seeing user experiences with it...

Welcome to Wander the West, laherro! Yeah, weight is always an issue. Can I ask what engine and wheelbase you have in the F150? I was just looking at this 2014 F150 specs chart and it looks like the V6 Supercab 4x4 has a payload in the 1500 range but others are significantly higher... .

That's great! I hope it works out well for you, Leo. And I hope you won't be shy about telling us both the good and the less-than-great things about the SS500 as you gain experience with it. Your opinion is especially important here on WTW given your experience with your Eagle. I'm very...

You may want to send a personal message as that sends an immediate email to the person you're trying to reach (rather than wait for the seller to see your post). To do that, hover over or click on Jtree's name at the top of post #1 and then click on 'send message'. Good luck! PS- I remember...

Fred, if you've not run through the troubleshooting chart in the N300 LP Mode Troubleshooting Service Bulletin, I'd give it a shot. Note that you'll need to keep the gas safety valve pressed in to maintain flame during the tests. You know, come to think of it, I wonder if pressing that gas...

Info... RM2193 manual See Periodic Maintenance and Troubleshooting sections on pages 11 and 12 .

Sorry to see it's fighting you, Fred. Does it do the same thing on the old regulator? I don't think I'd mess with adjusting the new regulator without a measurement. I guess you could keep track of exactly how much you adjust the screw but that could be easy to lose track of if you're not...

I'm not sure what ATC uses but this is what I used for my 01 Hawk... RV Designer E260 Entry Door Holder Rubber Socket I believe my holder is the RV Designer E253 (the plunger rod is straight and 4.75" long) PS- the Atwood 57049 grommet kit is for an Atwood cooktop according to the questions...

On my 01 Hawk, they're two small pieces. I took this not-very-good photo of that area a few minutes ago. If you look closely in the lower-right corner, you can see the seam and the staples in it. (Click to enlarge)

I believe the photo rotation problem comes from differences in how our computers orient the photo versus how the Wander The West forum software orients it. When we take digital photos, the camera typically records not only the image but also information about it, including the orientation of...

Attaching links to a couple of BC resources I found interesting.... Camping on Crown Land in BC Recreation Sites Recreation Sites and Trails BC - Interactive Map (Zoom in!) (Click on a tent, then click on the name of the site in the little window. That will bring up another window, this one...

LOL-- I was looking for a photo of the type of pump I called a 'bicycle pump' and found the exact model pump I was using is still being sold. It's this Fenix Vintage Air Pump. I should spend the $12.99 and see if works as well as my 1970's one. Anyway, the only way I can think to answer the...

Also on the subject of CPAPs..... One of my brothers has two ResMed CPAPs (an older one and its replacement) and he was planning to join me for ten days on my Florida trip so we had to figure out what to do. I was happy to find the 'ResMed Battery Guide: Using Stand-Alone, Deep Cycle...

No, sorry, we didn't camp near there. We had stayed in Labrador City the night before and that put us in that area at mid-day. 'WIld' is almost an understatement for that crater. 214 million years ago. Meteor 3 miles across. Crater 60 miles across. The fireball from it reportedly went as far...

We did the counter-clockwise version of the Newfoundland-TransLab circle in 2010 and had a great time. We spent three and a half weeks in Newfoundland and then worked our way home via the Trans-Lab and Quebec. We left August 21st and arrived home September 29th. We were traveling in our van...

I've not run into this personally but remember seeing these potential problems with using the trailer connector on Fords... 1- If your new truck is a 2015 or newer Ford with factory tow package, you may have a Smart Trailer Tow feature which could confuse things a bit. This video describes...

I'm not finding a manual specifically saying it applies to the CR1110. This one says it applies to the Waeco CR series and I see page 13 shows there are two LEDs next to the thermostat, one green during normal operation and the other flashes a code if there's a fault detected. Does yours have...
