  1. Here's my idea as to where the tv should be located. This was competed utilizing the factory brackit that came with the Trailer. Arm tension is adjustable and will have to be tightened, I did have to buy a 1 1/2 counter grommet and paint it white to bring cabling down to tv. Marc

  2. Don, I would second that. When I spoke with Tommy he was clear that the choices for placing Jack stands were the sub frame and the axles, not the aluminum frame. It may be strong enough..... but when you have the manufacturer advising against it.....probably best to avoid. I like what you did with the four stands and will do the same. Did the rear electric jack stands have any trouble lifting the trailer so you could place the stands? 'Thanks again for the pics. Appreciate them very much. Scotty

  3. I used 4 jack stands to get the wheels off the ground until I leave in January for Palo Duro Canyon, Big Bend, Guadalupe Mountains NP, etc. Here's a photo. Don

  4. We think this mount is perfect. Thanks for the link ScubaRx. It's better than the flip down TV that didn't have good reviews on Amazon and your suggestion is much more versatile. We are going to talk to our Oliver sales rep to see if they will install this with the standard TV on it in the middle position. They can even ask them to reinforce the other side where it is mounted like we saw they do at the factory for the awning mounts.

  6. We locked in a build date (December 5) a few weeks ago and yesterday we visited the Oliver factory and finalized our order. Stan and I (Linda) are very excited! I'm including a picture of the factory. I think our delivery will be March 2017. Everyone at the sales center was so nice and helpful. The plant tour by Jason was awesome. About a month ago we saw two Legacy Elite II models from other owners and also had many conversations with Anita our wonderful sales person, so we had an idea of what we wanted to order. The only moment of panic was finding out that the fiber granite colors have changed and the new ones are very different. After agonizing over the choices we finally came to a conclusion, but I have time to change my mind before production. I'd love to hear from other 2017 model owners who have chosen from the new colors. They only have tiny samples at the moment and we were only able to see the black and light beige fiber granite in actual units. If anyone could post interior pictures that would be great. We chose black leather (not real) for the dinette from the Kovi fabrics, the black fiber granite with white specs, black cabinet covers and grey plank-like floors. We are going with the twin bed and got the new upgraded foam. Does anyone have the new foam? Do you like it?

  7. Stan and Linda, Congrats on ordering the Ollie. When we purchased an Elite II twin bed Ollie used, we were not sure how we would like the twin bed arrangement. We upgraded to thicker memory foam mattresses and really like this arrangement!!!!

  10. We just did a factory tour yesterday and John Oliver's new trailer was on the production line. He has a new flip down TV in his trailer and Jason (sales rep) said they may start offering something like it. He said the problem with the one that John Oliver picked out for his trailer is that it is not high definition and does not have HDMI connection. Jason is going to look to see if there is one offered that is as high quality as the one offered in the corner now. The other thing Jason has to do is to get it approved because it has to be certified as not blocking the emergency exit which is the window. That is why they cannot put the stationary TV there now. He thinks the flip down will be OK for regulations but needs to see if there is a higher quality model. If anyone has suggestions on a model we will let Jason know and if approved get it in our trailer. My husband Stan in picture below is pointing to John Oliver's name on the shell. The other picture is the flip down TV. You have to click on it to see the full picture.

  11. I want to do this too, but it will have to wait. Too many things to do, not enough time. I need to retire.... My plan is to use this mount for the Apple TV: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B017K17PQ8/

  12. I talked to Tommy Staggs before I bought the jack stands. He suggested that I place them underneath the steel axles.
