  1. In light of the wintery weather all over the south, this is a great idea! I've always just tucked a folded blanket against the hull, but this is thinner, and probably just as effective.
  2. Thank you. I love listening Andrea, and also his duets. One of my favorite is this.
  3. So, tonight we met cousins at a favorite pizza place. Also a harvest host site. Midcounty, Largo. Surprise! A newer Oliver in rhe lot. Our server said they were very sweet folks, had been in earlier. I left a note in the door handles. Florida plates. No tv in sight. Probably out exploring on a lovely 70+ degree night.
  4. I'm in that club. 😅
  5. Merry Christmas!
  6. This one? https://a.co/d/47jQ7XM
  7. That's a good start, for sure.
  8. Good for them. Each manufacturer has a different market. I'd decline, just as we declined on the smaller Casita, 17 years ago. To me, a separate shower is a waste of valuable space in a small trailer. But, for others, it isn't. The hard part for me is the cabinetry, and carpeted walls.
  9. @Kpaladin, welcome to the Oliver gang. I hope yoibenjoy yours as much as we have enjoyed our adventures in #12, since 2008. Nothing runs like a Deere. Nothing travels like an Ollie. @MAX Burner, we will miss you. Stop by the forum and say "hey" once in awhile. We hope you enjoy your new rig, too.
  10. Our 2008 has the switch at the wheelwell, just above each wheel and jack. Pros and cons to each placement, I guess.
  11. Yup. Both in the drawer.
  12. Bigger trailer, bigger truck. Though "technically " you'd be within the legal limits, your travel joy will be increased with a bigger, heavier truck. Dragging 7k up a mountain pass, one time, in your Colorado would likely tell the story. And, hopefully, a great brake controller coming down. Casita typically have a heavier tongue weight, but not as heavy as an O2. Your Colorado would likely be fine for my elite 1, but towing a 2, other than on flats and gradual ascents/descents, I'd want some more oomph, and vehicle weight. I know it's hard to think about trading up trailers, and vehicles at the same time. My 2005 Silverado is about the same size as a current Colorado, but heavier (6k). I have a similar tow rating. Id personally only tow a 2 in Florida flats. Id be nervous going our route to NC, at highway speed, and up green mountain gorge, with your TV. Your anxiety will be decreased, and travel joy and cargo capacity, will increase with a bigger vehicle.
  13. We'll look forward to the finished photos. Then again, many of us with small lots will have a pang of jealousy.... Best of luck!
