We have used and value trailers but this trip is gonna be a lots of movement, trailheads, city parking and the like. Thanks for the suggestion.

It is a good point to stay in housing ever so often. We often visit and stay in historic lodges etc. Thanks for reminding me !

Howdy I tend to agree. I have seen some very short little Class C models which could still be driven on FS roads and the like while giving more space than a slide in. Hmmn. Trying to consider the rainy day comfort level also......for 2-3 months. Thanks for the reply.

Howdy As my wife and I enter our 70s we are considering another loop around the US/Canada next year to visit family and revisit favorite places we have been. We own our third FWC, a Grandby on third gen Ram quad cab, and pretty much have it fitted out just where we want it for travel in the...

Thanks for the comments. As an update I disconnected the truck battery from the truck. I charged overnight with my NOCO G7200 and the truck battery indicates fully charged. When I connected the truck battery there is a slight spark and the camper clearance lights flash on/off briefly. I think...

Howdy My truck and FWC Grandby have not seen much use for about a year and I try to keep the lead acid truck and single lead acid house battery charged with a NOCO Genius charger. I recently let life get in the way and learned the truck/camper batteries had discharged during a long time in...

MUD SEASON ! :) We farm sat in northern Vermont one February-May. The gravel road formed a sort of semi paste consistency by late afternoon while still rutted and frozen beneath. The effect was akin to walking or driving over uncured concrete. DG

Howdy Buckland Hold on for the surge of humanity. Watch carefully and get some insight on solutions to this mass tourism, herd effect, profit driven phenomenon. All regions need some solutions to this sort of behavior. David Graves

Thanks! Oddly these have metal caps nearly identical to the Titans.....the key for crank handle is different.

Howdy Is anyone here familiar with Atwood brand mechanical corner jacks ? I bought a used pair for a project and they seem very similar to the familiar Reico Titan jacks except that the mounting plate is set on a 45 degree angle to the crank mechanism. No big deal but just different. I cannot...

Greetings all I have read this thread with a mix of interest, optimism and surprise. Do you all not realize that WTW and nearly all web based outdoor forums are a lobby for tourism ? Tom, who once owned FWC, can be seen in a video years ago lauding FWC campers as a means for the vacationer...

Hi Vic There is a lovely wildlife preserve just south of Monterey with easy walking access to a cove with high likely hood a seeing SEA otters. Also, Pacific Grove, just south of Monterey has the wintering grounds of the Monarch butterfly....Sorry about the incident for your wife. David Graves

Hello A. Smith It may help or not in your thoughts about an awning....we find that an awning is of almost no value during our winters in the southwest.......simply because the sun is so low in the sky that it comes under the awning .... It is far easier to just sit on the other side of the...

Cite them and charge them for the rescue....a chopper is about $150 million per hour.

Howdy Can you join your pouches in a ladder like manner and suspend them from the velcro along the top of wall ? Mucho Fuente. David Graves

Howdy I have to think the energy exerted at the wrong angle and the wrong location will not only damage the frame of your camper but also do a spongy job of securing the camper to the bed of your truck. Do you want the fast guns to make removal quicker or easier ? David Graves

We also have been on part but not all of it. It largely parallels Idaho Rt 12.

Most shippers (if not all) will require the camper be mounted securely on a trailer and that you provide means to load /unload. ...cant drive a camper onto a trailer.

Shocking news ! Thanks Vic for taking this on. David Graves

Interesting....from my local SAR experience, most folks are not lost......until it gets DARK ! David Graves

My turnbuckles aren't groovy...is that some sort of sixtys thing ? https://www.tractorsupply.com/tsc/product/national-hardware-n177-592-3276bc-jaw-jaw-turnbuckle-galvanized David Graves

Hello Rob Glad you had that visit. People are part of the landscape. David Graves
