Tony and Rhonda, Welcome and congrats on your new to you Oliver. Enjoy those small trips as we did as new owners and get to know your Oliver! Wishing you many safe and happy miles, making great memories! 🇺🇸

Our Truma recall is being taken care this afternoon here at the rally as well 👍🏻. Yet another solid example of Oliver stepping up and doing all they can to take care of their customers/owners. Dave, Kathy and I really enjoyed meeting you and your bride Kimberly! Congrats on your soon to arrive new Super Duty 6.7 diesel beast! Enjoy the crazy insane torque and power… hang on and have fun! 😄 Safe travels brother! 🇺🇸🇺🇸 - David New burner element installed in approx 20 min, system tested. Outstanding job Joel. Done!

Agreed, if stolen it’s a useless brick to a thief, but a hassle to replace for sure. Good point! 👍🏻Last fall during our 48 day trip out west thankfully, we never had an issue. SL is really becoming a part of RVing. So glad we have it!

Just curious you mentioned you don’t leave your mini outdoors, are you concerned about theft?

A teaser…this evenings sunset at LGSP. Safe Travels everyone!

Absolutely gorgeous country…there is nothing like solitude, a perfect spot and totally a home run 🤩👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸

Arrived at LGSP today after a leisurely drive from Murphy, NC. Beautiful weather and we really enjoyed the Trail of Tears route. As always the check in staff here were super nice. I think we counted 6 0r 7 Olivers here in the park on this evenings walk. The security gate as you enter the park is not working so no pass code to enter for now. Safe Travels friends, David & Kathy Hull #634 XPLOR

Landed at Rivers Edge CG in Cherokee County, Murphy, NC. Concrete pad, F/H and a nice place to overnight on our way to LGSP. It’s good to be back on the road and traveling again. Tomorrow onward to Lake Guntersville SP. See ya at the Rally! Nothing like the beauty of Western North Carolina! 🤩 Safe Travels!

That’s a neat review.👍🏻 We have iPhone 14’s with IOS18 operating system and Verizon as our satellite service provider for an emergency SOS off grid. Our Starlink Mini is also another option we can use when are at our base camp. https://www.verizon.com/wireless-devices/smartphones/messages-via-satellite/ https://support.apple.com/en-us/105097

I have been running this D/C since 2022 and am really pleased how it works and how small and compact the camera is. Clear crisp photos or video. https://www.amazon.com/Garmin-140-degree-Monitor-Connected-Features/dp/B0931YZ82P/ref=sr Memory card -https://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Extreme-microSDXC-Memory-Adapter/dp/B09X7CRKRZ/ref=sr I also recommend this polarized lens cover- https://www.amazon.com/Garmin-Polarized-Lens-Cover-010-12530-18/dp/B07LDCK7ZR/ref=sr_ Here is the Ford specific plug and play dongar.tech short connector which plugs into my review mirror and powers the camera. Install is a breeze. You can barely see the Garmin Mini 2 while in the cabin as it mounts up hidden discreetly forward of the review mirror. Note: you must have the auto dimming rear view mirror with the 16 pin connector for this plug’n play to work. 💯 happy with this dash cam set up and would buy again. You may want to call Dongar tech to determine which connector will work for your Expedition trim level. https://dongar.tech/products/16pin-ford-f150?srsltid=AfmBOookPpMlEZvtWy9Hi5SQfoIIYMJNOU0HJqtJewLLbWFu9zZgQjjS

Your knees will thank you! My foam kneeling pad lives in the Oliver’s basement. 👍🏻

Soup anyone? 😂 love the old Seinfeld shows.

ICE and no Andersen, just free wheeling! 😄

Bill, The mpg’s down hill are amazing! It’s the slowing to a stop that’s the tricky part. 😄

It’s clear on the agenda your pretty much on your own for meals. Other than the opening ceremony meal which is provided at no cost to those who have registered. The lodge has breakfast and dinner available, naturally pay as you go. We typically skip lunch and enjoy a late breakfast and dinner at our site. There are a few local restaurants in Guntersville, check reviews. https://olivertraveltrailers.com/events/oliver-owners-rally/ Safe Travels! 🇺🇸

See ya at the Rally…..🤣

Always been a big George Straight fan….true country music. Fond memories of Gruene Hall, a small venue in New Bruanfels, Texas. It’s where I proposed to my bride before being deployed to the Gulf War. We are still fans of the late Hal Ketchum and were regulars supporters of his music. He was playing one night at Gruene Hall and I mentioned to him during a break that I had proposed to Kathy. Hal dedicated this song to us on our special night…”Old Soldiers”.

As @topgun2 linked above..these are high quality. https://www.eleyhosereels.com/products/garden-hose-quick-connectors?srsltid=AfmBOorhl73lbWlG-pTRQ_aHjougxYv88x-aD4DfsGjJACCyuZjoAX0t

That’s a very fair price. We are really happy with our Calmark Cover. 👍🏻

An interesting and entertaining opinionated thread. 😄

Yes, sharp eyes JD, and why I have chosen not reply. 😎

Per @topgun2 suggestion, I applied this a few years ago (no glue required) to the dog house aka LP tank cover edge and also the edge of the twin beds. Ours has held up great. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00QAJJJ3Y?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1

Welcome to the forum and congrats on your new Oliver. Lots of great info on here as well as Oliver University. Safe Travels! 🇺🇸

Fortunately we have not experienced any issues with our Truma Aqua go in our 5 years of ownership since our delivery in March of 2020. I am glad Truma and Oliver are addressing this recall as quickly as the supply chain allows. Whether in or out of warranty it’s my understanding this repair free of charge if you own a serial numbered recalled unit. I have not read or heard of any Oliver’s or other RVs equipped with the Truma Aqua Go burning down. Jason B at Oliver Service told me the repair/swap out of the burner takes approximately 40-45 min. Great pics/vid and solid write up @Galway Girl. An open source article worthy of reading - https://www.rvtravel.com/oliver-travel-trailers-with-faulty-water-heaters-recalled/

Very clean install, well done!
