    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Resource or App for Campgrounds

    i'm new to this --- what IS the best way to find dispersed camping sites??? some of these web sites seem pretty useful. Are the web sites about the best way to locate sites? i can find CG's on various maps - even atlases, but for finding areas with a variety of sites, haven't figured out the...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West is it ever pleasurable to camp in super hot weather...

    is a hard side or soft side better in heat? i'd assume the hard side is more insulated, but less window area? i would guess the soft side is better in heat; the hard side better in cold?

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West is it ever pleasurable to camp in super hot weather...

    another newbie question - and for me, super hot is 90 to 100 degrees..... i'm just wondering about how much insulation you look for, or whether the a/c is on all the time, or whether solar is a requirement... i don't have a camper or anything yet - i'm checking it all out. I am leaning to a...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Audio Books

    i do it the old fashioned way - books on cd's from the library - i think they're check-out-able for 3 weeks.... that's ok for my trips so far... i do use ear buds --- i know that's not the wisest thing. but,... some cars and stereo systems are so wonderful that they seem like the equivalent of...

    thanks, everyone for the info ........ i hadn't even heard of those deflectors, fairings, etc... surprised how noisy the 2016 tacoma apparently is....i'll have to try out some trucks on the freeway, etc!

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West wind noise while driving with truck camper?

    so the 2002 hawk that didn't extend that much over the truck cab --- somehow was unbearably loud? and what sort of wind deflector did you use? and the longer(?) cabover was quieter, but you still need to use a wind deflector?

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West wind noise while driving with truck camper?

    well, found this on something called tundratalk.......... jeeze, maybe i'll hafta spring for a pretty new tundra... afraid of the cost of that, though... and, just not real sure i'd want a larger truck, to park, and to go off road (if i go off road....)...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West wind noise while driving with truck camper?

    I'm definitely concerned about more engine noise in a truck, than compared to my Accord (which is noisy enough...) In fact, one of the things i'll be looking for is which trucks are quieter... however, if a tacoma can handle a pop up camper, i'd prefer a smaller truck. They seem to be right on...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West wind noise while driving with truck camper?

    i'm wondering if larger trucks like tundras are inherently quieter than the little tacomas.... larger cars seem to be much quieter than smaller ones - from engine, wind, and other noise... they seem to absorb sound better, and probably are better insulated against sound, much more cush.....

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West wind noise while driving with truck camper?

    i'm a total newbie - actually, not even a newbie, as i don't even have a camper... but i am thinking of getting one, and have looked at pop ups, hard sides, etc. i'm picturing driving for long distances at highway speed in a truck, and with a camper on top, is there a lot of added noise? and if...
