I'd like to fit in a Fri-Tues camping trip for myself and my wife/2kids in the next month. I don't know where to start sorting through the options. I'd like to find out from some of you more experienced campers where in Colorado would be your first choice. I'd be open to just about anywhere. I'm...

Ok I spent about 30 minutes with the search function and didn't glean anything useful. So..... What do you like and why? BTW I camp with myself, 2 small kids and momma. In a FWC grandby

Pay attention to the manufacture payload specs the vary from 1000 to 2100 lbs depending on model and manufacture. My brother had a tundra max is 1600lbs I had a Chevy max 1950lbs, dad has f150 that would be 1900 but his 22" wheels drop that to under 1500. My brother wants to trade his tundra for...

Heres a better look at the tires. They're a full inch wider than stock plus extra MEAT

Duramax all the way. I had a half ton with the 6.2 (2010) this diesel owns it towing/hauling. I liked the sporty side of the 6.2 but when it came to long hauls and working, theres no contest. This trip I got 13mpg's with the diesel, the same trip with the 6.2 was 10.2. And that's on premium...

Thought I'd share a couple pictures quick. I took the maiden voyage in the new truck last night. Truck handles the camper fantastically. No struggles at all which is what I expected. Very solid even at rest moving around in the camper it's very stable. The fishing was not good but the...

Thought I'd share pics of the new rig. Also I took a pic of where I had to saws all and belt sand the back because it wouldn't fit. Just an FYI to anyone else fitting a new gm may take a little coaxing.

I've been looking into this to. Thanks for sharing.

Well I called FWC and they said $350-$475 depending on what I get. That's an expensive mistake. Good thing I got a good deal on the camper in the first place because it's sure easy to spend the $$$ on upgrades and accident repairs. I was told a few months wait so I guess I'll to a home repair to...

That's for sure! Lesson learned!

Well my son and I made it out this weekend on the maiden voyage with out new to us FWC. The trip was great with one exception. going from the camp site the back door opened on it's own and got wedged against the boat trailer which tore up the door pretty bad and knocked the trolling motor loose...

What do you guys use? Gas, 110 off a power inverter? I was looking at these 2: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B001K7IDVU?pc_redir=1397363967&robot_redir=1 http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00FN3HZ84?pc_redir=1397374609&robot_redir=1 I will have 110v a lot of places I camp because I'll need to...

Yes I like that sprayer too. If I did it again I may leave more hose on it. In fact I may add some to it still. I just didn't want to much tangling in the cabinet underneath. But it may be really handy to be able to reach a little farther to add to a pot on the range or maybe a bucket on the...

Well I just had to have a FWC when I found one local on cragslist. But I didn't have space. So what to do?....... I do have a very High (14') garage ceiling. I am a framing contractor and did design/build my house. So I know I could support 1000lbs (give or take) No problem. So here's what I...

Well over the weekend I tore out the whole water tank and plumbing in my Granby. I knew I just couldn't use water out of it without seeing it with my own eyes and sanitizing the heck out of it. So I pulled the tank and did the standard wash out with dish soap and bleech etc..... But that's not...

Well Stan, you are the man. I had the battery hooked up backwards. I assumed red was power white was ground.... Believe it or not I graduated college as a ASE master auto tech. I guess in the last 10 years I've lost my touch! I'm embarrassed to admit how many things I noticed that should have...

Well I thought I should update this thread in case someone reads this in the future. On the Fridge I let it sit for another day level after giving it a real good roll, tipping it every which way hearing the fluid gargling noises inside it, fired up the gas and left it on level 3 for a couple...

Ok so I have an atwood 8516 in the back of my 99 Granby that isn't working. Turn on the thermostat and in a few seconds the fan runs. That's it no clicks no ignition. I checked and the sail switch was not closing so I replaced it. Same result. Not closing here's where it gets weird. I was...

I did, it was not tripped. and has power on both ends of it. As for the fridge I put it back in, leveled it and ran on gas for 2 hours and still got absolutely no cooling. So I think that's a lost cause. When I tipped it over i heard the fluid rolling around so I rolled it every which way for a...
