    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Buying a Four Wheel Camper for a Tacoma

    Hey Terry, Big time congrats on the Bobcat. My wife and I bought ours in October and love it. We put the long option of Yakama racks on our cat and it works out good. We put two short boards up there, and we still have room for our permanently mounted solar panel. Although it is getting a bit...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Camping in Morro Bay

    I have to apologize to who ever wrote me a personal email about camping in Morro Bay. I have a new Droid phone and accidentally deleted the email after I read it. So here are the camping spots I know of in Morro Bay. We like to camp at the Morro Strand. The Strand is a state park camp spot on...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Wall Mount Steps (Vs. Ladder)

    here is maybe a goofy question. I have used my steps to climb up to the roof and attach things, like my solar panel. But can one actually get on the roof and move about up there? I wouldn't want to hurt anything.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West ARGH!

    well we ended up haggling on our own. We kept calling between the two lowest quotes we got, out of seven different dealers. After we got the best quote that made us actually happy, we called the Santa Cruz store and talked to them. We worked the deal with them for what we asked. Then we told...

    Thanks Sunny. I don't know Baja spots. I can't see myself going down that way unless it is in a big group. Years ago my wife Valerie had some very BAD times down that way, and now won't go back. :( Thanks anyway :) Scott

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Preparing Truck For The Camper

    I just recently got my Bobcat. I own a 2002 Toyota Tacoma 4x4 TRD. I replaced the springs on my rear end and we love the ride now. It does not feel like we have anything on the back. I wanted to go with springs, because mechanical seems to me to have less failures than airbags. I hear of alot of...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Springs

    Jon, Salty... who ever you are. I wish I lived closer to you. I would much rather have given my money to someone with one of our campers whom I somewhat know through this web site instead of a local business with people I don't know. They did the install in two hours. Put them on, took them off...

    Barko, I will keep that in mind. I am planning on buying my tires at Costco. They have a life time rotate and balance policy, and they use nitrogen to refill the tires. I will have to get what they have at the time. Also, the wife and I can shop while they work on our tires every time. Alex the...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Springs

    Dan, I am planning on waiting before I do anything else to the truck. We have a 400 mile round trip set up over Veterans day week then another 1200 mile round trip set up at Thanks giving week. Those should do a lot to settling. As for the locks, I have no numbers. I let the local locksmith...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Springs

    Well after getting my Bobcat installed with all the works, it weighed around 850lbs or so. Even with the new Supersprings I had installed it was a bit much for the Taco. It worked but if I took it onto a bumpy road, it would bottom out. So, I got new springs built for the Taco and they are...

    What do you people think about this one? Would that be all I need to do the job, or would I need to add an inverter and a doo hicky and a thing a ma jig and such?

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West I Need Help!

    I know, I could have steped in that one. No, I don't need mental help or anything like that, but somebody or bodies here may think so. No, I need help with two camper items. First: How long does it take to get the plastic taste out of the water from the holding tank? I have flushed it four...

    I just got all three of the locks yesterday. They are all keyed alike, and installed for $24.00. Not a bad price for a small bit of security.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West The Shake Down Of Robert

    Yes Sun, they are. Our boards fit inside really easy when we go away from the camper. And at night with them way up on top, they should be hard to steal. Although, with my little step ladder, they may be hard to put back up after the top is raised. :o
