  1. We will be back home in a few days. Hope to meet you guys and show off our baby.
  2. This system is calibrated for twenty pound tanks. It will work with a thirty pound tank but it will show full until you use your propane down to a twenty pound level. It appears to work well aside from that.
  3. As Darrell stated, every 3000 Miles is recommended. That means that on a long trip, you would need to grease them at least once or twice. Obviously this requires you to pack along a grease gun loaded with the proper grease.
  4. I will be installing one for another owner in the next few weeks.
  5. Photos in my post are rotated 90°. How do we prevent that from happening?
  6. Since our side dinette has to be made into a bed EVERY night for our Doberman, Reacher, we had the same problem. I solved it a couple of years ago in much the same manner you did. I mounted the same beckson clips you used, only in the closet. [attachment file=167084C5-2A3A-4CF2-B6F8-D7F6EE185B4D.jpeg] [attachment file=739B3AC1-D5C3-4187-AEB0-7B6AF9336ACA.jpeg]

  8. All of our panels will tilt. You just have to make some legs to hold them up.
  9. Are you guys coming on to Quartzsite?
  10. The ghost town of Animas Forks, about 12 miles from Silverton, is well worth the time.
  11. Myself and Tali along with Coy Gayle are here with a factory provided, brand new 2018 demo unit to show to potential buyers. Accompanying us are Ken and Mary Kay Cvacho.
  12. Actually this is a matter of personal choice. In ten years of towing two different Oliver’s over 70,000 miles, our propane has never been off while under tow. Each owner needs to make their own decision as to which is best for them.
  13. We are holed up at a beautiful ranch out from San Antonio. We have access to a guesthouse with full facilities. We are warm, safe and dry. Will leave here when the weather abates.
  14. Socket is not provided, but they should have one you can borrow. You will need a short piece of hose.
  15. Glad you got your problem solved. Usually someone here on the forum has either experienced a given problem or knows the solution to said problem. As you have discovered, in cold weather when moving the jacks up or down, if they begin to slow or sound sluggish let off the switch to keep from blowing the fuses. Replacing these fuses with the Slow-Blow MDL type will lessen these headaches.
  16. I've blown several jack fuses in cold weather by not being patient enough. I always place an eleven inch block under each rear jack. That serves three purposes: (1) if you drive off forgetting to raise the jacks, it will not bend the jack, (2) in an emergency or if the jack will not come up you can drive off the block without damaging the jack and (3) you don't need a lot of jack travel to stabilize/raise the trailer.
  17. The RV Big Tent runs from January 20-28. The dome rock trailer rally runs from February 5-11.
  18. In the newer trailers such as yours, I believe the jack fuses are mounted under the street side bed.
  19. You will need 3000 watts without the EZ Start addition. With it, 2000 watts should work. We have a Yamaha 3000 that has always been able to meet our needs. It is left over from when we had our first Oliver that was not equipped with solar. Neither 3000 nor 2000 watts will run the air conditioner and any other accessory, such as the microwave, at one time. A 4000 watt generator might be able to do so. But this is definitely more generator than is needed, ie weight, cost. To prevent any nearby camping neighbors from hating you, make sure you buy a brand that is quiet. Below 60 dB is great.
  20. Ditto ditto ditto. Please permanently do away with it or put it at the bottom of the screen. It takes up TOO MUCH SPACE on the side of a phone screen.
  21. Just drill the 1/2” hole out to 5/8” and put a regular hitch pin lock in it.
  22. For Christmas, we got a small Instant Pot from one of our daughters to take with us in the trailer. We will be trying it out on the upcoming Quartzsite trip.
  23. And that was a very cool thing! Tali and I hope you and Betty had a very Merry Christmas.
