I am going through my Oliver with a fine tooth comb since I picked it up last week and got it home. I could not get my 120 volt outlets to work as my previous post stated. The outlets would work with the generator on and with the inverter on but not when plugged into shore power. I checked the breakers and fuses and the called Oliver Service and left a message. Richie called me back. With him and Jason on the line, the problem was solved. My surge protector on the Oliver was throwing off a error code of E 02. That means the surge protector said there was an error (ground error) with the electrical source that I was plugged in to. I was plugged into a 3 prong outlet in my old barn. So, I grabbed my generator bonding plug out of my generator and plugged it into the barn outlet. Surprise, Surprise, Surprise! The surge protector in the Oliver suddenly said no error and the 120 volt outlets work like a charm. Being a rookie and a newbie to this RV thing, I am blessed to have Oliver Service helping me out. Now wonder what I will learn tomorrow. Thanks Richie and Jason!

Merry Christmas Oliver Family! Wishing you all many blessings and safe travels in the New Year! This sunset photo was taken at the back of our property off of Copano Bay, Rockport, TX.

I love The Fast Lane. These guys really know how to make an entertaining and informative video. They just bought a ten year old Land Cruiser 200 with the intention of converting it into a true overland vehicle.... These trucks just walk up nasty terrain that is hard or impassible for most rigs, with no stress or trauma. They make the driver feel invincible. From the comments: Reading Land Cruiser forums be like: "So today I drove from New York to the Congo with stock everything and a snorkel." Reading Range Rover forums be like: "What's that liquid on my floor board? Where is that smell coming from? Is something on fire?" Love it! John Davies Spokane WA

Ah, but where’s the fun in that?

https://www.audizine.com/forum/showthread.php/668552-SQ5-Air-Ride-need-advice It sounds like an expensive and labor intensive mod. How reliable are these Audi kits? Do you have a good European repair shop that can do the installation for less than the dealer? I bet Portland dealers are charging at least $150 per hr.... am I close? The last time I had an Audi worked on it was in Spokane about a decade back, and they charged $120. I think it’s beyond criminal. OTH they have to pay for that super luxurious waiting area. The VW dealer is less costly with their vinyl chairs. LOL. Good luck. John Davies Spokane WA

That's darn cold, Pete. Eight degrees for 3 days should freeze the balls off a brass monkey so I'm not surprised the plumbing bummed out. In our experience, with the coldest we've been in around the mid to low 20's, if the interior temps are comfortable the spaces between the hulls are OK. I have a system of eight temperature sensors installed in and around the OO-II with three between the hulls that all transmit to a single console so I can monitor them at a glance. FYI everybody, wind chill has no effect on inanimate objects. The trailer will never go below ambient outside temperature no matter the wind speed. However the wind speed will affect how rapidly the temperature of an object will reach ambient.
