Hello CostaTaco, I have a four wheel camper for you. Eagle model. Recently relocated from the west to South Carolina. Have not listed for sale yet. Message me to get my email and phone number

Unfortunately ill be storing my eagle camper probably for a couple years in indoor storage. Any recommendations for storage and if top should be up or down? Also should it rest directly on a concrete floor or on decking boards? Thanks for any input!

how about making a deflector that attaches to camper. I have seen a few made from plexi or plastic materials. My wind deflector made from a pool noodle did well and finally had to be retired after 25,000 miles or so. It would have kept going but the winds of Patagonia were too much. I made it...

did you lower it but not latch it? I drive around with the top popped changing camp sites all the time no problem. Now I did once drop the top but forgot to latch it and drove for 5 hours down the highway in Mexico, ooops!

Hi Fred, I can give you my experience with my three way fridge in my eagle camper. I have a norcold fridge and the camper and fridge are 13 years old and yes both perform like new. The fridge operates very efficiently no problem holding below 40 degrees in 100 degree weather on the beach! I run...

Hi John, We just finished 17 months of full time living and traveling in our FWC Eagle with our 80lb golden retriever. When driving our dog had a set up like you described he laid behind the front seat on a rolled up kayak with his bed on it. He slept on the floor of the camper in his bed...

I met them on my trip down to Argentina, The world really feels smaller the more we drive around. We would meet people on the road and then a year later we would bump into each other again on a completely different continent!

well you will probably get a lot of conflicting answers here. In my opinion using a hi-lift anytime to change a tire would be super sketchy. The bottle jack your Tacoma came with will do just fine. The hi-lift does have its place as a piece of valuable equipment for winching or getting a vehicle...

I have that on mine also always wondered what those holes are for. I have my solar wires running on the outside down the side of the camper in a piece of PVC pipe. The entire lenght of wires is wrapped in heat shrink tubing to keep it neat. I have had it that way for two years living in the...

I see a reading of 14.7 volts from my morningstar sunsaver mppt controller regularly (just about everyday with correct sun conditions) I have 5 years on a diehard 31 in the camper that still holds at 13.6 volts. I have another diehard 31 under the hood as well with two years on it. Morningstar...

DieHard platinum marine agm, you can pick one up at Sears

without knowing much about your setup I would say try adjusting the pressure adjustment screw if the pump is not staying on. If its a shurflo pump it is the middle screw on the top of the pump. You can also build pressure in the system by covering the faucet with your finger and running the...

As many have replied go with a slightly larger tire you should be able to accommodate them on your Tacoma. My Tundra stock is 265/70r16 but I run 265/75r16. You will have way better performance with them. Here is a link to another good read to understand...

E rated Michelin. 10 or 12ply. Michelin are a bit more expensive but it will be made up for with how long they last. Just completed a two year trip driving from the USA to Argentina with an Eagle camper never had one flat tire. Drove the most grizzly roads if you can call them roads.

how about keeping your current set up and getting a smaller pickup or car as your daily driver. Probably the most economical option, will save you the most in fuel costs and you will escape the hassle of driving with a camper full time.

I replaced my door and framed window screen with no seeum screens. It was very easy. I used a hot glue gun to attach the no seeum screen to the roof vent which has worked very well. I tried this method on the windows in the tent area and it did not work out.

locked mine as well. simple barrel lock from hardware store for a few dollars

Don, yes you could just lay a sleeping bag over it but using a blanket would be better because the heat would radiate up and get trapped between the blanket and pad. We use a blanket that is goose down much like a sleeping bag but styled like a blanket. Check out my solar setup I have on a mods...

Srileo, we sleep on Paco pads (jacks plastic welding). They are foam wrapped in PVC. We have a regular bed sheet over the pads. We lay the heated mattress pad over this and then lay a "Mexican blanket" over the heated mattress pad. We sleep on top the Mexican blanket. Don't know much about the...

I would say just the bed area. I would say some of the big advantages are: 1)No propane heat use at night. The propane creates a lot of water vapor which I can't stand and well the propane heat is just dangerous in an enclosed area. 2) besides staying toasty warm all night, you wake up warm so...

yes, Headed to Bolivia in the next week. We will be giving the mattress pad some heavy use with some extreme freezing temps at elevation there

Kilroy,no big drain on the battery at all. There is 7 heat settings so it will use more amps the higher you crank it. I would set it on 4 or 5 about 20 minutes before going to bed, then turn it down to 2 cause we were so warm. Ran it up to 10 hours one night and the battery voltage was at 12.55...

My wife recently returned to the states for a week to visit family. I had her bring back a couple of things for us that I ordered on Amazon. One of which was a 12volt heated mattress pad. After camping for a week in the Cordillera blanca between 12,000 and 15,000 feet I thought I would share a...

I don't know where the house battery is located on the new Eagles. someone here will know.
