We were just at Black Canyon of the Gunnison South Rim at the end of May and have done Grand Canyon's South Rim but haven't made it to the North Rim yet. Sad that so much was lost including the lodge. The historic buildings are such an added bonus when visiting Grand Canyon and wish we'd had the opportunity to see it before this happened. Grateful we saw Black Canyon when we did. The last report I saw said that fire was still 0% contained.

Mike, I'm quite glad it was sunny the day we drove that pass...it was enough of an experience without all that haha. Joe is always ready to eject me from the passenger seat when driving in the mountains! 😏

We're back home now. We did a Salida, Gunnison, Montrose, Grand Junction, Moab, Telluride, Durango loop in May and early June. Riverbend was on my list but we stayed at Black Canyon of the Gunnison instead. It was great...I'm sure you'll enjoy the park!

Just happened to pull in right next to the sign for the Continental Divide on our most recent trip. Kind of a cool random photo.

Can someone please educate us on why one would choose a solar disconnect versus a battery disconnect and why you wouldn't have both? Is the solar disconnect primarily a safety feature? We do understand a battery disconnect is used to eliminate parasitic draws during periods of storage. We currently have neither in our 2019 LEII and are wondering about having one or both installed.

The thought of leaving home without any reservations stresses me out 😅 but we'll have to take a trip like this sometime to see how it goes! Could be fun. If I keep my expectations low, all should be well haha.

Correct!

We had the 4-leaf Alcan springs installed yesterday along with the 5200 axles. Not sure if we’re the first with this spring version but think we may be. We’ve only towed about 125 miles but so far so good. Will update in a week or so after we have traveled a much longer distance. GJ, one of the guys at Alcan said the 5-leaf spring weighs in at around 23 pounds, so, if that is accurate, I’d say the 4-leaf is more than 17. But I certainly don’t know for sure.

Thank you for posting this! Had asked Lew before about a 4-leaf and hadn’t been given this option. Just spoke to him again and am now considering this as our appointment with them is tomorrow for axle and spring upgrades.

We are having them upgrade our axles to the 5200s when we are there for springs. Just for the record, the price has increased to $946.83 each and that does not include labor.

Welcome! We'll be on the lookout for you.

We have the Mopeka rings (that we purchased when we purchased our tank sensors) and I will never have propane tanks again without them!

Our TV comes unlatched about half the time...and that's highway driving - not on dirt roads or across open fields! We've had 2 break in transit and one of those was WITH using a velcro strap. It, too, came loose! We've since switched to using a dog collar (size XS, 8-12").

We noticed a crack on the exterior of our door after freezing weather with precipitation when the temperature dropped into the single digits for days. We had the door replaced by Oliver 3 years ago. It has not recurred on the exterior but I'll have to take a close look at the inside!

Thanks for the video. Purchased these recently but haven't installed yet.
