No issues with reaching my drain valve either, then again at 6’3 I have fairly long reach/arms. I usually open the valve at home and just water the yard. Patriot🇺🇸

Gotta love a mini hoist along with the TV where tongue weight is not a concern with the gen basket loaded. Nice work!

Zarcor tinted window and blind install 2020 OLEll Hull# 634
Patriot replied to Patriot's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
@MobileJoy I agree John Halter was more than helpful when I had a few questions about this install/mod. One of the best most memorable dinners we enjoyed at MB was here - https://www.seacaptains.com The food and dinning area view of the Atlantic was excellent! Enjoy Myrtle Beach. Patriot🇺🇸 -
Need help with propane generator setup
Patriot replied to Happy Camper's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
Craig, Nice write up! Hope to see you both at this years Oliver Rally! David -
Chris, Our sales rep coordinated closely with us on the details of delivery day. Yours should as well. As you get closer to your delivery day your sales rep will email you confirming your delivery date other details and and hopefully info on a reservations at DCSP. Oliver usually has a few campsites set aside at David Crocket SP solely for new owners. Hopefully they are still doing this but you may want to ask your sales rep and confirm. We took delivery June 16, 2020 and we stayed at DCSP. We enjoyed this park. I believe our first night at David Crockett was compliments of Oliver. You can add a few extra days on your dime. Think hard about staying a few extra days at DCSP (highly recommended) this will give you time to give your Ollie a really good systems shakedown, push every button! If you have any “shake down” issues you can head right back to Oliver Service and get them addressed before heading home or beyond. Your special day is right around the corner and approaching fast! The team at a Oliver will go to great strides to get you taken care of, that I can tell you. - David

After each trip when returning home we empty our fresh tank. We refill again with home tap water the day we depart on our next trip. We sanitize usually once a season. We do not drink water from our fresh tank. We carry plenty of bottled water. Patriot🇺🇸

Looking good Brian! 👍🏻👍🏻

Gas Regulator Spare Part - Available GR-9994XF
Patriot replied to Galway Girl's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
A spare is always a good thing. I plan on bumping up to a little larger LP regulator like @GraniteStaters mentioned in another post. This is to avoid having any issues with running other LP appliances while running the generator. I will keep the old as a spare. They are easily found on Amazon or other vendors with a quick google search. Patriot🇺🇸 -
Protective Edge Strip for Spare Tire Cover
Patriot replied to MAX Burner's topic in Ollie Modifications
Hi John, It’s been awhile since I did this mod, I think I ordered 20 or 25’. I did not put this edging on the rear spare tire cover only the bed rail edges and dog house. It would seem that 30’ would get the job done. Partriot🇺🇸 -

You won’t need adhesive, this trim grips extremely well. No issues with it coming loose at all. -

Protective Edge Strip for Spare Tire Cover
Patriot replied to MAX Burner's topic in Ollie Modifications
Nice job! Here is a where you can ordered the edging off Amazon. 😊I used this on the edge of the dog house aka propane tank hood as well. And decided to use it on the fiberglass edges of the twin beds. -

Beautiful! 😊👍🏻

Imitation is the greatest form of flattery. 😊 An interesting attempt to copy the The Legacy Elite. They might carve out a tiny market share of the fiberglass TT industry. I just don’t see Cortez Campers as a competitor in the same fit/finish class as an Oliver. Actually not even remotely close. Interestingly enough they are actually listed at the Charleston RV show today for $52,981.00, a slight difference from the below internet price. Patriot🇺🇸 A dealer listed this one in Charleston SC. 😳😳😳

@Rolind Hi Rolind, First congrats on your delivery date and a big welcome to the Oliver forum and family. I think @Ollie-Haus did a fine job answering your questions about drop and shank size. Our TV is a 1 ton 6.7 diesel F350 Tremor and we do not use or see a need for the Andersen WDH. The Ford Super duty trucks are extremely more than capable of handling, towing and most importantly safely stopping a OLEll fully loaded and ready to camp. We really like the diesel engine brake as it works amazing on long down hill mountain passes. It significantly reduces brake wear on our truck and our Oliver trailer brakes. Ford nailed it with the diesel engine brake in my experience. My wife and I find our F350 Tremor extremely comfortable and very safe on long trips. The higher stance from the cockpit provides a really nice view when touring. And please know you are not stirring the pot as you have a really fine more than capable powerful tow vehicle. You don’t want the dog ever wagging the tail, so personally, I think you chose very wisely. Your delivery day will be here before you know it! So may I suggest you hit the books and learn all you can in Oliver University. This is a great resource provided by Oliver and will be a huge benefit to you when your special delivery day arrives. Feel free to PM me if I can assist you in any way with other Tremor towing or Oliver ownership questions. Welcome! Patriot 🇺🇸

I asked him detailed information on the install and finish of the Truma Aventa with regard to some of the information I read here. If you have any further concerns or detailed questions I highly recommend you give him a call. Patriot 🇺🇸

I received a return phone call from Mike Sharpe with Oliver Service today regarding our upcoming scheduled Truma retro fit. He answered all my questions and addressed any concerns I had very throughly. Based on my discussion with Mike we are moving forward with the retro fit of the Truma Aventa. Patriot🇺🇸

The issues some owners are having with the Truma AC leaking is concerning. We are scheduled in May at Oliver Service for the swap out of our Dometic Penguin and install of a new Truma Aventa. Hopefully by the time our install happens these details will be corrected. We will need to be assured by Oliver Service that they have addressed any and all issues regarding the installation of the Truma Aventa. I have a call into Mike Sharpe. Followng…. Patriot🇺🇸

Mike, You and Carol are running out of map to color in! Good for you!! 😊 Continued safe travels! David and Kathy

I am a bit surprised to hear Oliver did away with that hide away storage under the NS table…. bummer. We sure like ours. We also like the basement pass through door as well. Patriot🇺🇸
