    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West SOLD FWC Eagle - feeler to trade for teardrop - Portland OR

    Hmm, I get it! But, I’d have to do that 18 times for 18 photos in the album, yes? I am very lazy... Postscript to original ad: Oh yeah, the camper is sitting on a custom floor dolly, which is included if you wish.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West SOLD FWC Eagle - feeler to trade for teardrop - Portland OR

    Anyone with a teardrop for sale in the PNW this fall/winter - I'm interested to know more about your camper! No trade responses to this thread, but I have heard from a couple potential purchasers, so this camper is now for sale, no longer for trade. Asking is $6,500. The first and second people...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West SOLD FWC Eagle - feeler to trade for teardrop - Portland OR

    This camper *will* be for sale... for cash in-person. It's not quite ready to go, but could be in a couple weeks. Do you have a vehicle set up for it? Note that Oregon doesn't require title and license for this sort of camper, and this camper isn't titled. So far as I know, it never was. This...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West FWC not permitted at Washington State Park Tent sites

    A good campground host should be negotiating with the owners of smokey campfires! It's kind of a horrible experience to be in the path of the smoke.

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Buying and Selling Details

    Well, it won't do the previous owner any good, and might help you at some point, so why not? OTOH, there's a lot of demand in Oregon for good campers, and no title / certificate needed. I don't have one...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Buying and Selling Details

    If the previous owner has a certificate of origin, I'd ask him/her for the original. You'll probably never need it in Oregon, but, some day when you sell the camper you'll have it to help establish a chain of ownership. This could be pretty helpful to a new owner who lives in a state where they...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Venting for battery

    Well, I dunno'. Modern industrial safety theory and practice recognizes that there are no accidents, only unsafe actions that *sometimes* have terrible consequences. I'd hate to be that unlucky person who somehow got a spark in a hydrogen-rich compartment. Somebody (somebodies?) has had that...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West New or newish truck for my Eagle: mileage, power, fit questions

    I've been happy with an Eagle on a 2013 Frontier V6 king/extended cab with 6' bed. A good match. I've added firestone air bags, and the previous owner of the truck had added some heavy duty tires. A good combo!

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Want to remodel my Eagle, advice needed!

    About the refrigerator - lots of good info in this recent thread: http://www.wanderthewest.com/forum/index.php?/topic/13844-Absorption-vs-Compressor-refrigerator I have a 97 Eagle; the refer propane blows out on the road and sometimes in camp. As it turns out, this is probably a maintenance...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Absorption vs Compressor refrigerator

    Didn't know about this mod! Thanks cwd! http://www.wanderthewest.com/forum/topic/1111-tech-tip-auto-relighter-for-propane-refrigerators/ Another lengthy thread that is well worth reading through for 3-way owners. Looks like a street price of $100 (walmart) for an Atwood 93212 kit. For me, I...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Absorption vs Compressor refrigerator

    Rusty - thanks for that orientation! As soon as things warm up a little I'll get into it. It's a '97, so perhaps it's past time for a new jet.

    I searched and found Roger's fan install thread: http://www.wanderthewest.com/forum/topic/4980-fridge-fan-exhaust/ Well worth a close read by all owners of 3-way fridges! It includes several links; there are lots of types of RVs out there with 3-ways... If anyone has info on 3-way maintenance...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Carport/Shelter for Camper and Truck Storage

    Last year I helped a friend dismantle and move a shelter like that. It looks like the manufacturer is Versatube. It all unbolted easily and loaded in her pickup. My impression was that it was a very sturdy shed - I wasn't on the roof but someone else was. It had been out in the weather for 10...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Wear & Tear on your FWC?

    We had our first season in a 1997 Eagle. Overall, not bad at all! Cosmetics: Paper wood grain is peeling in several areas of the cabinetry. Some roof screws show a little rust. Functional: The 3-way refer will not stay lit on propane when it's windy or on the road. The water system needs to be...

    For camera batteries, I really like this dual charger - it runs on 110/240 AC and 12/24 DC! https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/837092-REG/watson_d_1517_duo_lcd_charger_with.html It's adaptable to *many* different batteries for a couple bucks. And has a USB charging output as well for phones...

    RV LIFE Forum Hub, Wander The West Gore Tex pop top liner?

    Seems a very worthwhile experiment! Back in our Coleman tent trailer days (shh, don't tell anyone!), the tents were made of Sunbrella-like material. This is, I think, a modern canvas. No condensation... Sent from my iPad using Wander The West

    Yes, cables on a little winch on each jack, a tripod base. They work fine, but my wife doesn't like the way the camper moves on them. Sent from my iPad using Wander The West
