  1. I do not own the truma so I know only a little bit about them. It is my understanding that if the filter is removed it should be stored inside the compartment to the far right between the unit and the wall. That would be where I would expect them to put it after the exchange. Sometimes my expectations are greater than reality.
  2. Off topic and I apologize for the drift. Do you plan to be at the NE Rally in June. We are coming up and hoped we could get to meet.
  3. Glad to hear you're home in one piece. Hopefully the power will be restored soon, but you still have a nice trailer to hole up inside of.
  4. I was just messing with you. Although we don't own one, I've watched others use them and I agree it is much easier to use than moving the trailer. I saw a lady trying to drag a full one out of the back of her truck and it hit the ground and split open. This was out from Quartzsite and not on a slab of concrete. It made quite a mess that couldn't be cleaned up with a hose.
  5. Let’s see, 20 gallons of fresh shite at about 10 pounds each. That tote could easily weigh in at 200 pounds or so. Don’t drop it on your foot or you will be loudly proclaiming to everyone within earshot what the contents are. 🤬😵‍💫
  6. I wholeheartedly agree this is a much stronger solution than using the connectors that Andersen provides.
  7. Depending on which model/engine your dad's taco has the towing capacity will vary between 3500-6400 lbs. Your Elite will weigh in at well over 4000 pounds loaded and ready to camp.
  8. We were once stuck in Winslow, AZ with a major sand storm headed directly for us with predicted wind speeds around 40-50mph. A seasoned truck driver walked over to where we were parked and advised us to put the truck/trailer combo pointed into the wind with which ever end that was least important facing the oncoming wind. He claimed he'd seen the sand storms take all the paint off vehicles that were not oriented correctly into the wind. We took his advice and did not suffer any damage.
  9. If either or both of these valves are open, you would only have have water pouring out onto the the ground. There is no mixing valve in that area. The article referenced was about a setup in a motor home. None of its components and certainly not its plumbing layout would be the same as in our Oliver’s. I doubt this will be the solution to your issue.
  10. For Hawaii, Spam is no mere novelty. On average, Hawaiians consume more than five cans of the stuff per person per year — more than any other U.S. state. SPAM: Special Processed American Meat. Personally, I'd rather have possum and sweet potatoes with a side of foie gras.
  11. Very nice setup, our unit was built in late 2013 and may well be in poor shape. I will check the hoses out tomorrow.
  12. This one is totally different but one of my exceptions to the 21st century rule. I first discovered it in a LG phone commercial back in 2016 starring Jason Statham. You'll notice that he plays every part in the video, well with the exception of the bulls. Busy Signal, Everybody Move Here's the whole song... In case you want to sing along here are the lyrics... [Intro] Turf... Bus'! Brrrup! [Hook] Da one yah name Watch me now Watch me now Watch me now Watch me now Watch me now Watch me now Bus'! Hott Ed! [Musical Interlude] Hey! Hott Ed, Hott Ed Bus'!

  13. Having come into musical maturity listening to the Rock N' Roll of the late 50's and all through the 60's, I can attest that I've never been a Country music fan. By the mid 70's I was rather oblivious to what had become popular and I drifted thru the 80's and 90's really not paying much attention. One evening in mid 1999 as I was leaving to go home from work one of our technicians asked me if I had ever heard of a new internet site called Napster, I told him that I was not familiar with it and he explained that by using it, a person could (for free) download any song ever written. Being of a different ethnicity, I assured him that none of the music I would be interested in would be available there. Later, at home, I decided to look into the program. I downloaded the software, installed and then ran it. I don't remember the interface being too difficult asking only for an artist and song title. All of a sudden I could not think of a single song to download. Then I remembered one of my favorite songs from 1965, Bob Lind's Elusive Butterfly. I typed it in and hit enter. Almost immediately, a list of selections to choose from came up. I chose one and hit the download button. Well, this was still in the dial-up days of the internet and it took several minutes but it finally completely downloaded and I pressed play. Oh my goodness. It was at that second I had a sudden, intuitive perception or insight into the reality or essential meaning of something, initiated by the simple, homely, and commonplace task of downloading of a file (or as some might say, an epiphany.) It was at that moment I realized I wanted more songs, in fact I wanted all of them. So began a quest to download and catalog every Billboard Hot 100 song from 1940 to 1999. It took me 10 years. I now love the songs from the 80's and can tolerate most of them from the 70's. The 90's not so much. With a few exceptions, I skip virtually all the songs of the last two decades. This is one of my exceptions...
  14. Ours has ridden >150K miles in the up position, 90% of the time with 80psi in the tires. I’ve found it down only a couple of times. It sounds as if some have not tightened the adjustment screws properly.
  15. No, there’s a group of us that will be headed toward Quartzsite during that time.
  16. And getting a truck big enough to haul everything will get you admitted to the cool kids club.
  17. Here's wishing a Merry Christmas to all. Looking forward to seeing everyone at Quartzsite and/or The Rally. Steve, Tali, Reacher and Rocky
  18. I'M NOT BANNING ARNOLD, you ban him. 😄
  19. Tali and I, Reacher and Rocky will be holding down E05. If you want to be Reacher's Buddy, bring him a dog treat.
  20. Won't happen. The Elite II's don't have the Correct Axles for the changeover and that's 90% of the units sold. Just my two cents worth, and like yours, worth every penny.
  21. Just be glad it isn’t you. https://www.facebook.com/1184617314918277/posts/pfbid02YD7fS9AA2XybTCqqjPVXD3bE13anT7gWMzHA9oNNYmrGQ5aRS5WTaA1EGwWAz8dMl/?app=fbl
  22. I designed a floor plan for a house we planned to build a couple of years ago. When the garage and adjoining shop reached almost 4000 square feet, I decided we probably didn't need to build an 8000 square foot house at our age. It would have been nice though.
