    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Pass thru boot question

    Basically I put hook velcro on the inside of both set of pass through windows and made a sleeve of waterproof nylon that connects the two together. Plenty AC or heat for my two dogs in the back even going through Vegas at 115 or Montana at -20F. You will notice a little more road noise but...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Truck Recc for Hawk

    OK call me old or call me a slow poke but I just love my Hawk on my Tundra 2000 4x4 Access cab with a 5 speed manual V6. Yes the 190 HP V-6! If you keep the speed at 65 it gets over 16 mpg always with the AC on on the highway and while on a trip to Alaska I got over 20mpg for the 20,000...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Exterior Sheet metal screws

    I ordered a large amount of exterior stainless steel screws and the supplier shipped me the incorrect length, they shipped #8 X 1/2 inches long and I ordered the 3/4 inch length. Would they work or should I send them back and get the longer? I wanted to get the roof exterior finished before I...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West enclosed storage comparisons

    I have a Thule case that I sometimes use and I would say I don't think it changes the mpg much at all if any. Now lifting the roof with 100 lbs up there is not fun but I have a system. A large pad that goes on top of my head for lifting the rear and I stand on a shelf / bed that is about 2...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West 2009 Hawk on 2001 Tundra observations

    I either case is the underneath of the cabover plywood? Are there aluminum pieces in that area? Both styles have to be screwed into something. I do not want to mess that area up. The underside of my Hawk is just coated plywood. I only drilled a few holes and put T-nuts on the other side...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West 2009 Hawk on 2001 Tundra observations

    Love my Hawk on my 2000 Tundra. One thing you really need to do is close the gap above the cab. Once I did the mod http://www.wanderthewest.com/forum/index.php?/topic/1197/page__p__12318__fromsearch__1&#entry12318 I have no wind noise, it doesn't buck when passing a semi and I can carry all my...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Just Wondering About North-South Extended Bed vs East-West

    I have a Hawk with the extended bed feature over the cab which basically means the bed comes less into the camper but I extended it inside so it is basically a queen in both directions and here is why. When I go camping with my wife I don't mind her climbing over me to get to the forward bed...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Lowering a older 4 wheel camper

    I bet if you had the money you could bag your tundra all the way around and drag frame around your block. Would be cool watching the sparks fly by the houses on your block.

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West FWC Warranty work

    Not just comfort possibe 50 miles off the pavement. You spent 2 months in Alaska and didn't drive to Deadhorse on the haul road? Technically not all dirt but I wouldn't argue that it is 500 miles off the pavement! A fantastic drive and it will test all screws and bolts on your rig. Did you...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Led The Way

    In Stan's above picture is there a specific reason to have a fuse on both the positive and negative leg of the battery. When I set mine up I just copied this but I was wondering what is the reasoning behind this? Most automotive accessories like amps, lights, etc only fuse one leg?

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West Fwc Food Storage And Cooking In Bear Country

    We spent two months in Alaska and drove every road. On one drive as the snow was leaving an amazing huge brown bear was walking along the road, it was almost as large as the old VW bug that was following it, as I pulled into the other lane and drove around the bear it was evident that a tank...

    RV LIFE Multisite Forum, Wander The West I'm leaking .....

    Not pretty but worked I had one window that leaked along the bottom too and I didn't want to put any type of sealer because from my experience with tents, they seal for a year or two then the sealer dried, cracked and lifted leaving a seam of cracked sealer that leaked again. I cleaned off the...
