  1. I would be really interested in this list too.
  2. I went to the rally last May and did not own an Oliver. I had a great time and met many very nice people. I now own hull 267 and plan on attending the rally next May. Talk about community, I bought my towing vehicle from Ken (in Fleming Island, Florida) and Steve and Tali (in Tupelo, Mississippi) installed the slide in it for me!
  3. Thanks Mike. I have been back to the doctor, but only saw the PA. He said it was normal to still hurt and to be swollen. I am doing therapy 2 times a week, but don't think it is helping. This has been a bummer because I had to go to therapy a month before the surgery (to jump through the insurance hoops) and then do the surgery..so all in all this knee has been hurting me for way over 2 months. And that is why I have not been too crazy about doing anything with the Oliver. Just hobbling along and popping pills.
  4. I will send pictures the next time I go to where it is stored. The neighborhood rules state "no trailers, campers or boats" in your driveway, so I found a place a couple of blocks from my house that will store my Oliver. Thanks for asking about the knee..It is still swollen, hot to the touch and I am still on pain pills...after 4 weeks. Getting tired of it.
  5. Thanks Bill. I need all of the instruction I can get!
  6. Been out of touch at a high school foot ball game. John, I wish I could start camping now, but the truth is I will have to learn how to hook the TV to the trailer and then learn how to pull it. This is all new to me. I really do not know how to drive the truck yet. But, the weather may be coming down from the almost 100 degree reading and the knee is getting a little better, so hope it will not be long. Thanks.
  7. Oh, and not the big black cable, just the two smaller black cables.
  8. Thanks everyone for all of the helpful information. Hopefully I will have time Sunday to try to hook the trailer to the truck. The ladies brought Hull 267 to me on a Friday and I had knee surgery on Monday, so have not been able to spend much time with it. I may be wrong, but I don't think any chains were hooked up, just the black cables that are in John's picture.
  9. Hey Steve, I know this is not where I should ask this question, but I do not know how to start a new discussion on the forum. The ladies brought me the Oliver with the cable attached for towing. They did not use the chains. Is it your choice to use either cables or chains or are you supposed to used both? I have never hooked up a camper in my life, so was just wondering. Thank you.
  10. I sure hope it will work, because I have two Galgos (45# and 55#) I hope to train them to sleep on the folded down dinette. We will see...lol
  11. I am so sorry to hear about this. I pray that Jesus will wrap His arms around all of the Oliver family and give them peace. Blessings to everyone.
  12. Thanks, because we are needing it.
  13. I am getting a lot of 404 errors, but have not gotten anything from a pharmacy or weird e-mails.
  14. I read that the tongue weight is 460 lbs.
  15. Ken, I was hoping to be able to carry them behind the driver's seat with the back seats folded up or down (however it works). I think they would take up too much valuable cargo space in the back of the truck. I carry them now in my Sportage with the back seat folded down and I rigged a divider between them and also one to keep them out of the front seat with me. The pole idea is a good one. Thanks.
  16. One question please, what if you do not have a back-up partner? I have never even driven a pick up truck, much less towed anything..and I am old. lol
  17. Steve, Ken still has the truck and I believe he lives close to Jacksonville. I am going to buy the truck in August or September. But, I would be happy to send you the money for the slide whenever you say. Thanks again because this will make it so much easier for me putting things in and out of the truck.
  18. Steve, Ken said it would fit, so that ends that. Please let me know if you want to sell it and then I will have to figure out how I am going to get it. Thanks to both you and Ken.
  19. Steve, would it fit in a 2015 Tundra? Thanks
  20. John, thank you so much for the information and the pictures. I would like to see all of the pictures you have. My dogs weigh 45 and 55#s so about 100# in all. I weight about 120# so with the dogs about 220# all totaled. That would be it unless once in a while a grandson wanted to go, but two of them are boys with pickups and the other one drives a 25 year old BMW that he is very proud of because he paid for it himself (he is 16 years old). Very interested in your platform and rig to keep them out of the front seat. I have fashioned something similar in the Kia. I also will be looking at the ramp you use because I cannot pick the dogs up and put them in the truck. I used to have a folding ramp that was a PITA to use for loading my Greyhounds and when they died I threw it away. Removing the seats is a very good idea because I never haul anyone in the back of the old Kia..I just lay the seats down. I do not own any stuff like a canoe, dirt bike or for that matter a regular bike or much of anything else. I would probably carry a generator, light weight (PVC pipe) dog beds, dog food, small grill and a lawn chair. Thank you so much for all of the information and for agreeing that Ken's truck looks like it will do the job. I was confused about the three numbers that he was posting, but you said it would work if I was careful about the weight. Nan
