Chris, PM sent.🙏🏻 Dave

@Anita JohnstonWishing you a quick and speedy recovery and we’ll still plan on taking you to lunch in May if you are up for it! David & Kathy

One thing to consider: If you’re getting the new 13500 BTU Truma Aventa AC on your Oliver, it will require a 3000 watt generator to run it.

@MAX Burner Nice work!

Here is an electronic version of your Olivers owners manual if you need to reference it. https://olivertraveltrailers.com/oliver-university/ Patriot🇺🇸

@SNY SD UP Oliver suggests this suspension be greased every 3000 miles or 3 months. 👍🏻 Here is a neat video on the EZE flex. https://support.olivertraveltrailers.com/portal/en/kb/articles/dexter-ez-flex-overview-maintenance Patriot🇺🇸

Yes, you are correct the 16” wheels are no longer offered.

Linda, Good for you that you can try and get back out camping with your Oliver. Along with the above recommendations and since your Oliver has been sitting so long please don’t overlook checking your spare tire pressure. Make sure your tires are not old and out of date. Welcome Back! Patriot🇺🇸

That is an impressive shine you have on that Ollie! Nice work! 😊

Hi Mark, I tow with a 1 ton F350 so I can’t really answer your question. Our truck does not require the Andersen weight distribution hitch or any other modifications or upgrades to tow and LE2. @topgun2 or @mossemi both have F150’s and may be able to chime in. Patriot🇺🇸

Mike, Hull #135 looks amazing! CGI does nice work! Patriot 🇺🇸

@MAX Burner 👍🏻🙏🏻👍🏻🇺🇸 Safe travels on your trip to Mexico and please post up pics of your adventure! We all like Ollie in the Wild photos! 😊 Patriot🇺🇸

I see absolutely nothing inflammatory about the above threads. If a forum member sees any of these posts as inflammatory it’s because they make a clear obvious choice to look at it this way. These posts are merely respectful greetings of the love, joy and the everlasting peace of celebrating Easter and greeting each other. He is Risen!! Patriot🇺🇸

@rideandfly@MAX Burner When the time comes for our shocks to be replaced I will consider a set of these for the new shocks. They are likely to last a lot longer than the cheap rubber bushings - https://www.summitracing.com/parts/ens-9-8101r?seid=srese1&gclid=CjwKCAjwrdmhBhBBEiwA4Hx5g1EmNbsDrEQeAq0_LONOYG_UhdlvY6ePhChw2orxOwCvV5eUD0qi7hoCoC0QAvD_BwE Patriot🇺🇸

No need for me to repeat my thoughts in a post. I 💯 agree with Mike and Galway Girl, YES the diesels are much more capable. In the end roll with what brings a big smile to your face, and your budget! 😄

To Oliver Owners considering the 13500 BTU Truma Aventa retrofit. In the last few weeks, I have been working with Oliver Service on incorporating an optional Honeywell digital thermostat to run the Dometic furnace. This optional thermostat will replace the Dometic mechanical thermostat that Oliver has been installing. I learned good news today from Service Manager Jason Essary that my suggestion to use the Honeywell digital thermostat was tested and approved by Oliver engineers. The Honeywell digital thermostat will be offered as an option for owners having the Truma Aventa retrofit done. Optional Honeywell digital thermostat -https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00H6ARNXO?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details We will have the Honeywell thermostat installed in May when we have our Truma Aventa retrofit install completed. For any technical questions please contact Oliver Service @ 1-888-526-3978 Happy Camping! Patriot🇺🇸

I have read that a general rule of thumb is to replace trailer tires at 6-7 years of age. These numbers are beyond my risk level of comfort. I will likely replace ours at the 5 yr age mark. I would say you are right, listen to your gut, you’re riding on borrowed time. A visual of the exterior of a tire is ok, but the age of your tires and the things you and your tire tech can’t see in the aging rubber and internally would keep me awake at night. I would replace them as soon as possible if it were my Oliver. https://www.discounttire.com/learn/tire-aging Patriot🇺🇸

@John Welte Hi John, We purchased these in 2020 and they have held up really well and have as you will see have solid reviews. These will fade a little bit if you’re parked in direct sun, but it has not made the material brittle or show signs of breaking down. I really don’t use them now since we built our Ollie Hangar.

@MAX Burner pretty view! How are the temps?

In advance of having the Truma Aventa retro fit/install on our Oliver a month from now I decided to order this digital thermometer/ hygrometer. It has a push to touch back lit screen which others did not, nice large numbers, time and day of the week settings. I will be interested to see how well the new Truma maintains temp as well as how well it reduces humidity in our Oliver. The TP358 as stated will sync up via Bluetooth on an iPhone to view the data for a short range. This particular model has fairly strong reviews. Mounting location is TBD. Patriot🇺🇸

Mark, Welcome to the forum and now is a great time to read all you can in the Oliver University. Take deep dives on various topics on the fourm and ask also questions. Have you taken the factory tour yet? Congrats ordering a new Oliver LEll. What do you plan on towing it with? Patriot 🇺🇸
