  1. We brought the new Canyon home yesterday. It is a crew cab, short bed, SLT model and has the "baby" 2.8L Duramax and we are really pleased. It is a 2017 model with all the bells and whistles and had been retained by GM to use as a loner. Although it has 23000 miles in it, it has never been titled and was sold as "new" with the warranty and factory maintenance agreement intact. Considering we were looking for just that vehicle and they knocked $16K off the $48K sticker price, I thought that was too good a deal to pass up. Based on the fact that it weighs about half of what the Silverado does, I believe it will get much better mileage towing than the bigger truck. It has a tow rating of 7700 pounds and the Oliver only weighs a little over 7000 pounds so we should be good to go, right? The 13000 pounds capacity that the Silverado has just seems to be a lot of wasted potential. Just kidding folks, the new truck belongs to my DW Tali and will become our daily driver. The Silverado lives on and will remain the TTOC (Tow Truck of Choice) for pulling the Oliver. We have other, smaller trailers for different purposes and the Canyon will do nicely for them.

  7. Consider AC operation off batteries to be primarily a pipe dream. It CAN (and has) been done but certainly not easily or cheaply. If you have a generator, that is your best bet.

  8. Yes, the location would be seen your photo and is shown in the following link. Can't find any photos of our installation, but followed MicroAir's installation manual on our Penguin II. Assume Oliver does the same. http://microair.net/main/products/manuals/EasyStart_364_Installation_Guide_for_Dometic_Penguin_II.pdf

  10. This may get me banned, but: Somebody at the rally this year told me that their small dog slept under the dinette. When the dog passed gas it set the CO/LP alarm off. Alarm kept going off until they moved the dog’s bed. Moved the dog’s bed, alarm quit going off. Respectfully submitted, Bill (certainly not Martha)
