Has anyone taken their FWC across the Canadian border and back through again? Are there issues if you are a little over GVWR with border crossings?

It is only this straight forward if your old vent was the same size. My old vent was 7.5" square, with superficial braces welded into the frame.... had to cut that all out (2001 Eagle)

That kampers kabin looks like Steinbeck's rig for when he traveled the states and wrote a book about it.

Ok so thanks for the ideas. This is what I came up with after going through our local rv supply store

Get the slow blow for your fantastic vent as well.

Blew a water pump fuse. If it happens replace it and don't worry unless it keeps happening. Sometimes you just pull enough energy as a fluke due to a capacitor in a ballast or this or that or the other. It happens even when everything is OK.

Following weekend.

I would rather make it the right height with the least amount of weight possible, stacking even 1 extra layer of plywood adds a lot of weight

Anyone use these awnings? Their tents are good and this seems like a cheaper alternative to the ARB stuff, lighter as well. http://www.kirkhams.com/shelters-shades/kirkhams-auto-canopy/

I'm looking for solutions for fabbing up a table that is super light but can support workstation laptop or a fly vice at times. If I can just buy something that will fit, fold up, slide out, etc I will. Otherwise I am looking at making something. Can the community help me brainstorm? I'll add a...

Hey thanks!

The search function on this site seems extremey limited by character restrictions. Is there any harm in removing them so we can search for 3 letter words like fwc, atc, gas, top, etc?

That sounds like good charging amps for a deep cycle to me but I use a charger as my camper has no inverter

This one is the 3350, thermostat, rain sensor, powered open to work with rain sensor, etc. Its to keep the dogs cool.

So my first fantastic vent I ordered through Amazon seemed to have been previously returned and the thing would only open manually. I missed my window to install the unit with temps closer to 70 and since I have a hole in my roof with a tarp over it... I gotta do something. Dicor needs 70...

Thanks for the pointer there! Tailgate is coming off this was a temporary install just to get her home. Pictures coming soon.

Proud, new to me FWC Eagle owner. Bought this 2001 locally and installation was easy as pie! This 22re truck was already a dog but it always gets you there. I am surprised by how much storage space is inside compared to my carpet kit and camper shell. The factory dry weight in the booklet for...

I kinda figured this out. Looks like I need to remove that one crossmember.

So it looks like the vent on my 2001 eagle is much smaller that a fantastic fan coming in closer to 9" than 14". Does anyone know if the 2001 eagle roof framing is spaced enough to receive a fantastic? I measure really close to 14" and it seems, just by feeling around, that there are horizontal...

I bet your on the way to having a super reliable rig there Yeags! I have a tendancy to fix everything then sell my vehicles, don't do that! Almost pulled the trigger on a 24valve 99 6spd with 250k here... Decided regardless of how long am engine can last, everything else remains equal to gassers.

Wow those rental rates are motivation to buy for sure. Good to know about though! My mom plans to move to Manteo in her retirement coming up pretty soon. I have spent a lot of time in NC's coast, growing up in the Piedmont myself.

Saw a FWC Hawk parked in a driveway yesterday and went knocking on their door. Got lots of good insight!

Hello, new to the forum here and still researching. Looking at trying to narrow down a decent 3/4 ton with a larger cab and 6 - 6.5' bed for a used FWC or ATC. I am however, still debating on the bed size and whether or not to get an ATC or FWC, it will largely depend on what comes up used but...
