  1. Jumbo Rock Campground. Site 71, Joshua Tree NP
  2. Yosemite was breath taking. The crowds were I guess normal. Found a parking spot and used the shuttle service. Stayed at Chilkoot Seirra National Forest Campground 30 minutes away and getting into the park was about a 15 minute wait 1 day and no wait 2nd day. The campground was great and not crowded at all with large sites I think we saw a Condor one day soaring and it was a beautiful sight. We were the campground favorites since we had been given about 25 avocados by our daughter in laws grandmother in CA and shared them with all the surrounding campers First camping trip that far out west and looking forward to next years trip to some of the other parks. May travel more in Aug and Sept so opportunity to reserve more popular campgrounds may be available.
  3. From Seal Beach to Pinnacles NP, Yosemite NP, Crater Lake and then to Theodore Roosevelt NP. 9500 miles and the Ollie tagged along perfectly. Our longest trip and it was great. Stopped by the headwaters of the Mississippi and then 3 nights at Smokemont in the Smokies where I first started camping as a kid in the 60’s.
  4. Beautiful campsite at Joshua Tree. On the way to California leaving from Palmetto Ga. Spent 2 nights heading to Seal Beach CA to meet the kids and grandkids for a week of R & R.
  5. Welcome!! Erv & Sherry Hull #650
  6. Welcome!!! Erv & Sherry Carter. #650
  7. Welcome! The fun is just starting. Great purchase!
  8. the price we were quoted was $5600 but I am asking exactly what will be replaced. $1000 more for 210 more AH seems very reasonable. I wish I could do it myself but 2 fake knees and lack of knowledge ..... I know my limits. Is the company available for similar installation or was this a friend quote? Thanks for any information
  9. Fixing to be in the same boat. Have inquired with Oliver about the changeover. Mind sharing the price of your cost as to what I may be looking at from an outside vendor. The Oliver swap was to 390AH I believe. I have sent a request to see exactly what the price covers. Thanks for you info if possible.
  10. GA RV Pros 210 Shamrock Industrial Blvd Tyrone GA 30290 Very nice workshop. Very quick service, we picked it up the next day. Their rate was $180 per hour.
  11. While camping on a 3 1/2 week trip our curbside Dometic awning started acting up. It would only open about 2 feet and refused to open any farther. After numerous resets as per manual and several conversations with Oliver support we had to take our Elite II #650 to a Dometic repair shop. We initially believed that the relay had quit working which required access to the relay through the on/off tabs right inside the door. This ended up not being the issue. After more investigation the awning had jumped track and would only move 1 to 2 feet.. After a 3 hour charge we are good to go. When investigation this issue on the forum we had not found any other awnings that had had this problem. So this is a little input incase someone runs across this issue. I guess I should have climbed up and tried to see if track was an issue, but after resets performed in manual and on Dometic web pages, the motor would not jog after performing reset instructions. With my bad knees I tend to let others seek out issues not on ground level. Good luck and happy camping
  12. https://www.drivingline.com/articles/f250-30-000-mile-review/ Late to the party but these are what I run on my 2022 250 Tremor and my 2011 Lexus 570. Love the tires and have had no issue at all. I am biased since my son wrote the article and took the pics.
  13. Thanks for all your articles and advice. Always bringing up questions we all think but do not ask and then providing some answers to make us all think.. Enjoy your new adventures!
  14. John, My Tremor has been shipped and I am waiting on delivery of my SD 250 Tremor. Living in the Southeast i really don't have the opportunity to hit dirt roads with the Ollie like you do out west. I do expect a rougher ride with the 250 of course when compared to my Lexus 570. I will definitely miss the softer ride but no Andersen and plenty of payload will be very nice. I could not bring myself to look at the Power Wagon. Nice truck with good reviews but a Lemon 2012 Rubicon has me soured on Dodge. I am excited to see how the 7.3 Godzilla pulls. Read great reviews but have not had he opportunity to actually drive one due to the scarcity of available trucks on the lot. Once I get my truck there will be a used Andersen available for sale.
