  1. We are very disappointed as we won't be able to make the rally ☚ī¸. Site 61 has been freed up if anyone needs a site. Jim has to have Achilles tendon surgery and won't be up and about by rally time. So sorry as we really wanted to meet everyone. Thanks to those who have gone to all the trouble to organize this event!! Y'all have fun now, ya hear!!!
  2. LOL - I've tried everything to get ours to fit...but then again, I am not a good puzzle solver!
  3. We just completed this mod ourselves. Has anyone heard whether the weight limit of the 2" option is greater than the 150 lb limit on the 1.5" receiver option?
  4. We found that the 22" was too large/heavy for just the two of us and downsized to the 17" which we much prefer. We don't use the cover but do store it in a Blackstone bag, which we have found is pretty good quality and keeps the grill surface in good shape (assuming it was cleaned/oiled prior to storage). We use a basting cover stored in the trailer when we need it. We also use Flame King refillable propane bottles which I really like. Note - we have to store the grease catch can separately - can't figure a way to fit it into the grill bag.
  5. whoops - was posting John Davies' post on this...saw it was already reported...LOL - slow reader here!
  6. We've had no issues with our Cooper tires that came with our trailer. They track great and wear great. It's a shame that Goodyear bought Cooper and stopped production. You made a good choice and were lucky to get some. Enjoy! Before each trip, we go to a CAT scale and check out the TV and trailer weights and tire pressures. We use the attached Excel workbook to help us out Towing Weights.xlsx. We copy a new worksheet for each weighing and use the date to name the worksheet. Our most recent trip we ran with low tongue weight (new ebike and racks on back) but had no issues in high cross winds during trip. Still, we need to correct this.
  7. Congrats! Your post honors your wife and relationship! Thanks for sharing and it looks like you had a grand time. Our anniversary is next week. We married late in life so we are way behind you at only 12 years but when you have a great wife, who's counting? (Answer - I better be LOL!)
  8. Just as an aside, when using the "convection" oven feature, there is a chance that the oven will "go dark" after the cooking cycle. By going dark, I mean the panel is bank and the interior bulb is not on when the door is opened. This is the overheat thermistor triggering (ours goes off now at after about 30 minutes @ 350F). We open the door, let it cool down (and heat up the cabin 😞). It cools down and resets. I have searched for a schematic for this oven but so far can't find one online. Maybe there is one inside the oven? As @topgun2 mentioned above, this particular problem should be an easy fix but not sure that is what is causing your problem.
  9. Thanks so much!!! You are a scholar and a gentleman!
  10. We wanted to get some "security" lights for our local boondocking to ensure we don't miss catching a glimpse of the bigfoots (or is it bigfeets?) roaming the Big Thicket just up the road from us. đŸ˜ŗ Here's what we ended up with - an LED motion sensor light running off of rechargeable D-cell batteries all mounted up on a GoPro style suction mount. Item list given below. They work well - suction enough to hold the weight of the batteries and lights with no problem (assuming fiberglass is cleaned). Lots of other alternatives, but this worked for us! We also use the rechargeable D-cells in our little frig fan. Wish us happy bigfeets hunting 😆 Parts list: Motion Sensor Outdoor Lights GoPro style suction mounts Rechagable D-Cells Recharger 1/4-20 nuts JB Weld Marine Epoxy Scrap wood, approx 1/2" thick Light mounting base diameter - approx 3 1/8" - cut circles from scrap 1/2" wood Drill 1/4" hole in center of wood circle - large enough for stud from windshield mount 2x 1/4x20 nuts - JW Weld Epoxy welded to center of wood circles
  11. @Jps190 - quick question....How exactly does the front control panel come off? Just to confirm what the factory has told me, must the frig be removed to get to the screws that affix the front control panel to the frig? Thanks much!
  12. @Jps190 - I would love to take them off your hands! Just PM me and I can send you the bucks! Whoops - sorry @Ronbrink - didn't see your message. I have a bad display board on mine. 😞
  13. Frances and I plan to be there...Site 61...Hull #927, LE-II, name is Lucy. Look forward to meeting everyone in person!! (Just looking at pics from the Guntersville Rally happening got us excited!)
  14. Wow - looks like you all had a great time!!! Thanks so much for the pictures. We look forward to making it next year, the good Lord willing and the creek don't rise!
