  1. Had an issue with the IPN Remote display not showing any data - See picture #1. Was advised by Ryan at Blue Sky to unplug the data line at the back of the remote for a few seconds - See picture #2. Problem solved with a screwdriver and a phone call. My kind of problem. :-) Posting here in case anyone has the same issue. Easy fix. Scotty

  2. "clam" is a proprietary name. For us, we carry day to day indoor life (clothing, cookware, bedding, food), for the most part, in the trailer. Odd bits... Chainsaw, extra 5 gallon water containers, dirty laundry,generator, gas cans, extra propane tank, extra stuff, etc, etc, (sometimes the ATV...) in the truck bed... Even in the smaller, older, elites, you can pack clothes, equipment, and essentials and more in the trailer????, and even more stuff that you don't need, in a short bed or SUV for a couple months or more. Been there. Done that. Way too much stuff. Many times. But, we're still married. .. with or without too much 'stuff'. Life's an adventure. The road amplifies it, and we love it. Sherry

  3. Hi Mike, You called it. Jason said that this was probably due to over tightening. He is sending me some replacement screws to replace them with. Will let you all know when I get that done. Scotty

  4. Hi all... Checking in to see if anybody uses packing cubes to help organize their Ollie. If so, do you like them? As an experiment I purchased 1 medium-sized packing cube from Amazon.com to see how much it could easily hold. The cube I got, fully packed, measures 14"x 9.5" with a 4" depth. Most medium cubes I found on Amazon were 3" deep so clothing amount could vary. I packed firmly but not so tight to have a wrinkled mess and found the cube held the following: 4 - Men's x-large T-shirts (I tried rolling them but found folding allowed me 1 more shirt) 3 - lightweight socks 1 - heavyweight sock 4 - boxer underwear 1 - nylon sport short Hopefully the pack will fit nicely into an upper cabinet.

  6. Clever ideas abound on the forum! I joined Amazon Prime two days ago and my first free delivery order was a set of these cubes.

  7. Bill, I've got room in the truck for my clubs. Camping and golfing - what a great combination! We've camped in two locations this trip with nice water falls. Helen, GA and Anna Ruby Falls, and here at Big South Fork NRRA and Yahoo Falls. We hiked to Yahoo Falls yesterday, it's 113 feet and you can walk behind it. No golf course though! Mike

  8. Kathy, it's just one of their inexpensive shoe rack hanging racks. Probably skubb. Ties in, rather than having to remove the rod for loops . 7 or 8 years old now. Holds skubb boxes in unused slots. S.

  9. Kathy, I love packing cubes. In the Ollie, and other travels. Big cubes fit in the bottom of the closet, small and medium in a Ikea hanging rack, in the rounded corner of the closet . Or, in a bin beneath the bed. I pack as you do. A week or so in a cube . Color coded for hot and cold weather. On a cold day, socks, long sleeve shirts, underwear, thermal, etc, are in a blue cube. No digging around for several cubes. Warm weather, another red cube. Love them When we travel, I do the same. Even though it takes some time after laundry, I reorganize and pack the cubes on long trips. Minute to find what we need. One cube, one zipper. I have several cubes in colors for each of us. Going to town clothes and jackets, hang in the closet. We only have one shelf in the closet... Early model. that contains first aid, tp, bug repellant, a folded sweatshirt for each of us. You'll find what works best for you. Everyone is different. Sherry

  10. The Towready looks great :) Here's a clamp to fit around the door and hold everything in place. Grab a few, they come in handy https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000BUQOAY/_encoding=UTF8?coliid=I3O4GK5QN3L5SH&colid=DVETVI1ZF5E8 Then here's a pic of our old school Curt with the clamp holding it together. It really gives you a good sense of knowing that the 7 pin can't come loose.

  11. Gregg, When we picked up our trailer, hull 153, Oliver had to perform this procedure to correct a problem with our furnace . Very professional looking results, and, I believe, incorporated on the 2017 models. Dennis

  12. Mike, Thanks! Some State Parks in TN have golf courses, too. Did not take time to play a round, but managed to hit balls on the range and practice on their putting green.

  14. In the bed of the truck I carry two larger "zero gravity" chairs and two small camp chairs, a camp table, Weber charcoal grill, Weber propane grill, charcoal, chocks and blocks and on long trips or boondock trips a generator and 20lb propane tank (we have all that on this current trip). The closet is for hang up clothes, shoes, hamper, and miscellaneous things (first aid kit, small hand vac, tool kit, etc). The back overhead (attic) is for some of my clothes and then containers with DVD's, spare parts (fuses, hose gaskets, on command tape, etc). The back two side overheads are for clothes. The two over the kitchen for kitchen things. The two over the dinette for some bathroom items, a toaster and a small coffee maker (Nespresso Pixie). In the basement I carry water hoses and accessories (Y spitter, pressure regulator, nozzle) power cables, 50a adapter, 20a adapter, surge protector, toilet additives in a bucket (detergent, water softener).

  15. I had a couple of these. It looks like the manufacturer over tightened them. Let us know what Jason says. Mike

  16. Why not use the closet? 2 shelves and a pole to hang a bunch of stuff. Always been plenty of space to carry whatever clothes we need. Stan

  17. Yes, you plug the cable into the truck, and then plug the trailer plug into the receptacle on the 57003. On my vehicle the spring loaded door on the receptacle has a protrusion that locks the seven pin cable in place. The spring loaded door on the 57003 has a similar protrusion to lock the cable in place. If I had it to do over again I would go with the Tow Ready 20142. The cable on the Camco 57003 is too long. To reduce the slack and prevent the connector box from hitting the ground I used cable ties to attach the excess cable to the trailer. I had already purchased the Camco 57003 when I found info on the Tow Ready 20142 online, and I am not shelling out another $25 for cable aesthetics.

  18. Regarding the noise problem on the Coleman Mach 8, has anyone installed this hush kit? http://www.perfectcasita.com/fred.html We only used our AC once last summer and since we are on the door step of summer, we are again thinking of this solution. The Casita folks seem to be happy with the lower noise volume. Just wondering if any of the Oliver folks had given it a try. You would have thought the Coleman brainiacs would have figured it out on their own. Stan
