    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West SOLD** 2003 FWC Hawk $9800 Pleasanton, CA

    It left today. Guy who bought it has a Hawk shell that someone else built out and he doesn't like their execution. Something to be said about the factory layout and build quality. Thanks for looking all. See you on the board!

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Value 2003 Hawk

    For what it is worth and to create a record for others with value questions, I think at 9800 I had this significantly underpriced. People seem to be looking for light weight, no frills units. Also, I ended up basically doing a restoration with new floor, reworking the wood bits and giving it a...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West SOLD** 2003 FWC Hawk $9800 Pleasanton, CA

    The Hawk is ready to go. I decided to price it under 10k, to hopefully get a quick sale. Needs nothing - I always kept it clean but I went through it top to bottom for the sale and you can go camping in it tomorrow. Interior pictures coming shortly. Thanks for all the help with value...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Value 2003 Hawk

    It is a 3 foot cabover. Thanks everyone for your kind and thoughtful replies and your pricing input. The new camper is being installed early August, so I want to get the old one ready now. I haven't prepped it, so no closeup pictures yet. Here is a snapshot from a while back, before the roof...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Value 2003 Hawk

    Hi Wanderers, I hope this is the right place to ask a valuation question? We will be selling our 2003 Hawk soon and I'd like to get an idea on value so we can price it right and not sit on it or give it away either. It is a 2003 model with all the basic equipment (factory): Propane stove 16...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Adding furnace (and fridge?) to 2003 hawk?

    Thanks all Yes, I have an ice box which I believe is the size of a standard fridge. I really believe that this is the furnace in the location under the fridge - this was moved later, for obvious reasons. Of course I am not stuck with installing it here, but if I put it under the sink, it would...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Adding furnace (and fridge?) to 2003 hawk?

    Thank you bahaphile! The 2003 has a bit different setup from yours, I have found old for sale pictures of a 2003 here and posted the best one below. https://www.wanderthewest.com/forum/topic/8411-2003-four-wheel-camper-hawk-sold/ As you see, it exhausts through the back - I currently have a...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Adding furnace (and fridge?) to 2003 hawk?

    Hi Everyone, Doing more cold weather camping, I'd really enjoy having a furnace in my 2003 Hawk. It is a basic equipped camper from the factory: Ice box, propane stove, roof fan, sink with manual pump faucet and no on board battery. This looks like a pretty big project: Furnace: Original...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Oil Filled Electric Heater for Winter Camping?

    Is anyone using an electric heater when parked with electric hookup for taking the edge off the cold overnight? An oil filled heater looks to be the safest option - no open element, and temperatures under 200F, less than all common materials' combustion temperatures. I wonder if this is a good...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Basic wiring truck to camper (no camper battery)

    Thanks guys. No external lights. People keep mentioning these but I sure don't have them. Only reflectors. My model is a real base one, I guess, which is good = light. I will keep you posted. Looks like next weekend's outing is canceled, so I will have time to do some electric work! G

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Basic wiring truck to camper (no camper battery)

    Excellent. I will wire 10 gauge then and see what 2 strand I can get. So, what's the advantage of the thermal breaker? Just the fact that I will not need to carry fuses? Can you send a link to the type of thermal breaker I should get? There seems a lot of different ones when I search. Thanks...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Basic wiring truck to camper (no camper battery)

    After a first outing with the new to us 2003 Hawk on the new 1500 RAM ecodiesel we are very happy with the setup and it is time to wire it permanently, where we have an outlet on the RH side of the bed and can plug the camper into the truck electrical. For now (only running LED lights and the...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West New Hawk Owner - Battery Question

    Great input guys! I have one saw horse built - ran out of wood for the other tonight, so still no work inside, but I checked today bending over into the door - IOTA DLS-30, which my research shows as a DC converter / charger. So I am all set from that end to get a separate battery going...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West New Hawk Owner - Battery Question

    Great input, guys. I agree, I need to check more what I have and inform you (and myself!) properly. I have heavy duty saw horse kits coming tomorrow, and should have the camper solidly supported to work on by the weekend. Then I will report back in detail on existing wiring and the Iota unit. I...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West New Hawk Owner - Battery Question

    Thanks DesertDave and Happyjax! Indeed, no electric water pump, ice box and no heater. You are right, worst thing that can happen is that I am back to tent camping in terms of lighting and ventilation. :) I don't need to worry about cell phone charging until I drive, so that'll be okay. I...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West New Hawk Owner - Battery Question

    Hello Everyone. I am new to wanderthewest and the new owner of a 2004 Hawk. It is going on a Ram Ecodiesel 4x4 Crew Cab 6.4' bed. If it was designed for this truck, it could not fit any better. I used the forums do do research before I bought this camper and this forum has been extremely useful...
