We just joined Harvest Hosts this morning. We used discount code MARCH which dropped the annual membership to a one time new member price of $67.15. The regular price is $79 annually. It will be interesting to see how this works out for us. Using it once or twice will likely pay for itself and it surely will beat a Walmart or Cracker Barrel parking lot. Happy Travels!

How much wind can the awning handle

That is a beautiful show room! The floor shine reflection is impressive, Wow factor!! -
hobo, We use a combination of a small plastic folding table we purchased at Walmart and a picnic table when available unless we are boondocking. Naturally this does not bridge the rear bumper. I usually set up our Weber Q1200 on this table. It is a little over knee high with the legs fully extended and holds our grill at just about the right height to cook on. The table is light weight and folds in half and has telescopic legs. Nothing super fancy, but it really has worked out well. I feel sure others will have suggestions on what works for them. Hope this helps.

Decided to install the BuiltRight mounting bracket on our F250 dash today so we could mount our 890RV gps. We decided to go with a little different approach on mounting location after mocking up a few different locations. We settled on dead center. Surprisingly there is no line of sight hinderance for me in this location due to the cab height. The screen is very accessible and we are really happy with the location. After a drive around our neighborhood and secondary roads I can report a solid mount and no screen bounce. Still have room for the Ollie rear view cam on the w/s. vid- A few photos....

Dickey Betts really does a fine job in this acoustic version.

AT $84 for the above lock I opted to go this route. Well it took a few minutes to drill a pilot hole and then again a little larger to accommodate the cable lock. (I happen to have few firearm cable locks handyπ). Will it prevent a random snatch and grab hopefully and possibly. Will it stop a determined thief?...absolutely not. But this is what I am rolling with. And the price was right. π

I am considering this mod to help add a little more security to our propane tanks on our Ollie. The TorkLift lock has been around for awhile. Is anyone using anything different or more robust? Recently I have read on other RV/camping forums that there is a little up tick in propane tank theft grrr! It seems like a decent cable lock would slow a thief down or maybe force them to move onto a less time consuming or easier target. This lock appears like another possibility. I need to check our Ollies tank mount thread size 3/8 or 1/2β? Thoughts, suggestions welcome and appreciated. here - https://www.etrailer.com/RV-Locks/TorkLift/TLA7702.html A vid review- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WrJs_fq9yQg

Zarcor tinted window and blind install 2020 OLEll Hull# 634
Patriot replied to Patriot's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
WandR, So glad to hear this worked out for you. John Halter the owner of Zarcor was a pleasure to do business with and I highly recommend his company. He really made things seamless for us when we ordered. Maybe Oliver will offer this as option or better yet a standard feature. We would have gladly selected it. @Topgun2 as mentioned was instrumental in our pursuit of this very useful mod, so to his credit. ππ» Happy Camping!
