How often do you replace the blue Camco water filter?
Patriot replied to BillATX's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
Depends on use, we changed our filter twice last year as we stayed at over 22 CGs. We don’t drink water from our fresh water tank but do use it for showers. We carry 1 gallon jugs for our drinking water. Hope this helps. -
We have just the solution for deer and it’s the best homemade chili we have ever enjoyed. Blessed with an amazing season last year with a total of (5) in the deep freeze. That is our deer 🦌 story and we are sticking to it. 😄

Furrion Radio Comes On Automatically
Patriot replied to connor77's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
I had just about the same experience with Oliver Service as our radio not not playing CD’s. Fortunately it still did eject the CD. Contacted Oliver as we were still under our 1 barely under our year warranty. Jason sent out a new old stock radio which I installed. I sent the old one back pre paid shipping and the new one works as it should. Out of warranty it would have been spendy to replace. The quality of the Furion radio is ok, I think a higher quality radio for what one pays for an Oliver should come standard. -
That is correct always bypass the Truma when winterizing. I also bypass the Truma when I sanitize my fresh water tank and plumbing system.

Indeed, thanks! The trout fishing was ok too!

Ollie in the wild!! Enjoying several days of Blue Ridge Mountain camping fun and a little trout fishing on the Toe River. We really enjoy like Mountain River Family CG and one of the nicest in the the Blue Ridge, so we are back again. A little fire side fresh venison chili from last falls hunt was perfect for last nights dinner at 51 degrees. We give this CG ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🤩. The owners are awesome folks who camp and know what campers enjoy. Happy Camping!

An interesting photo is that wild white rose? 😊 -
David Peters, Here is an option, not cheap and I am not so sure how well it would work on gravel. https://parkit360.ca/collections/trailer-dollies?utm_campaign=**LP+-+NonTM+-+General+-+US&utm_term=trailer mover&utm_source=adwords&utm_medium=ppc&hsa_kw=trailer mover&hsa_acc=4630284090&hsa_mt=p&hsa_grp=125520177799&hsa_tgt=kwd-389207204846&hsa_src=g&hsa_cam=14379722857&hsa_net=adwords&hsa_ad=540856145407&hsa_ver=3&gclid=CjwKCAjwjtOTBhAvEiwASG4bCGqQikNdOUByI8n0loaLWdphea4wj9ANsf40nwbEvNErO0qc8Ej7qRoC2z8QAvD_BwE

Steve, When you said threading a needle this comes to my mind….or me actually trying to tie a fishing knot.

Mark, I run a Weber Q1200 grill and when needed an LP campfire ring. It beats looking at the ground. 😄Both of those required me to remove the factory regulators and just install quick connects. I simply attach my LP hose to the Oliver quick connect and use the grill or the campfire ring. I also have a Honda eu3000is which I converted to LP using the HutchMountain.com conversion kit. This conversion requires a separate regulator to an independent LP tank so that I can push a button on the regulator and start or prime the LP into the carb. I really like the Hutch Mountain tri conversion and carrying zero gasoline and it burns cleaner. The gen will use three different fuel sources - LP, LNG, or gasoline. I have not tried running the Honda off the Ollie yet as it is newly converted. I hope this helps. Others may chime in with further knowledge. David

Last May Oliver service replaced our awning seal under warranty and they also drilled out our awning brackets so they drain properly and they now do. The new awning seal was installed just low enough that there is no longer an issue with water puddling and water drains off as it should. When washing the roof of our Oliver I did not see any water puddling along the awning seal or brackets as it just drains off the rear of the trailer as designed. When I wash and detail our Ollie I usually have it a little nose high to facilitate water draining off the roof area. The water also drains off when the Ollie is level. I am fine with how the new seal works now. Regular washing keeps the seal and roof area nice and clean.

Bill, Northern tool might have what you are looking for. https://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/category_tires-wheels+hand-truck-utility-wheels

We traveled last summer and stayed at 22 Campgrounds through 16 states and never carried or even missed having a tote tank. Honestly never really needed it. I guess we are spoiled by full hook ups and CG with dump stations.

May 2022 Rally - Specific Information Coming other than the schedule?
Patriot replied to Nancy K.'s topic in Events & Rallies
Steve, We look forward to this! The more we learn the better it gets! -David -
I spoke with Diana at Calmark regarding cleaning the Calmark cover and she sent this attached info to me. And yes we have the black streaks aka air pollution on our cover as well. She said not to place the cover in a washing machine as it will remove the chemicals or special additives that help with repelling water. I attached the tips and info which she emailed to me today. I hope this helps. 887450757_TipsandInfomationforyourCalMarkCover.pdf

Bill, I am very happy with these “Rock Stoppers” they are made by Livelymachine.com and are designed Super Duty specific. I don’t know if they fabricate Rock Stoppers for other trucks. I can report they work excellent and protect the front of our Ollie and keep it clean. If anyone has questions PM me.
