    Nan, it is usually a good practice to use the Quote feature (below the post) when replying, especially with a question. You can shorten the content of the quote if you like, for clarity, just don’t add anything extra to it.  Doing it this way makes your post confusion-free for its readers.

    IMHO you shouldn't fret about the element until Spring, it may possibly be fine. It isn’t a part that normally wears out, like the anode rod: you should buy a cheap generic spare anode, or two, to have on hand, as well as a rinsing wand if you don’t already have one.

    BTW is your knee healed up and working OK?

    OK, hope I am posting correctly this time.  John, I just ordered the anodes and the rinsing wand.  Thank you very much.

    OK,  the main breaker was turned off and turning it on put the 110 into the camper.  However, when I turned the main on, I did not know the breaker for the hot water heater was on and it heated up for a couple of minutes before I figured out what was going on.  The HW heater is empty.  Did I hurt anything?

    I finally had the power run to my Oliver.  Can someone please tell me why there are two outside plugs for the 30 amp service.  I plugged into the one on the side and everything looks good, except I have no 110 volts AC at any of the plugs inside the camper.  Also, and this is minor, I do not have a sink stopper so where can I buy one?  One more thing please, am I right in that you cannot run your heater off power (must use propane), but you can check out your air conditioner with power.  

    I have not been able to check out any of the systems (other than solar) since I bought this camper a couple of months ago because of not having power.  I had to move the camper to another place than my original place and have power and water run.

    Thank you for your patience.    Nan Wallace-hull 267

     

    2020 Oliver Travel Trailer Owners' Rally

    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!

    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.

    Split: Trailer Hitch Question

    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.

    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.

    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.
