Back in the day, that's what was referred to as a, "widow maker"... Good to scan your area of operations before you decide to bivouac. We've seen this exact event occur at a campsite in the Sierra Nevadas years ago... Not pretty...

Not trying to highjack the thread into another realm - but this book, IMO, overlaps with those OTT enthusiasts that seek out modifications and perform their own fixes to issues that arise periodically...

Good to know info! Thanks. Guess we'll be doing some trouble shooting this weekend...

Just curious... what axle issues are you concerned with?

Dear @John E Davies John: This news comes by way of making D's and my heart heavy. We have learned so much from your posts and PMs and were looking forward to possibly meeting you and Mouse down the road at some point. We wish you and yours the very best in the pursuit of your dreams and happiness in future endeavors. Know that our prayers kind thoughts are with you both and hope you can remain engaged with the forums as the true "Oliver Sage" that you have been for many years. From one aviation professional to another, "Fair winds and following seas!". Cheers!

Hull #226: Micro Air EZ Start installed on standard Dometic A/C unit/Honda EU 2000i GENSET: NO CAN RUN A/C, just FYI. Maybe a EU 2200i could pull it off, but we don't have access to one (YET).

Even "semi-retired", we convert our time into "money saved" and "projects completed!" Love'n it!

...ooops! My bad!

Very interesting project. Like the idea of lightening up the load - have you an estimate on how many pounds you'll no longer be hauling around? Just curious. Thanks for such a cool post. Cheers!

Very smart set-up, @John E Davies

AMEN, Brother!

Ah! Just saw this @Geronimo John ! Thanks for posting!!!

@SeaDawg: Concur, 100%!

We've been subscribing to their monthly coffee club since early '16 - absolutely our favorite coffee company on several levels. We like supporting veteran-owned companies, especially when we love drinking their Joe. Our favorites are Blackbeard's Delight, Just Black, and CAF. Their range of roasts is broad and deep. Most folks can find a blend that suits their tastes, for sure. Great "swag", too. The company went public last year, I believe. They're getting big - kinda like that they've "made it". But you're correct, @SeaDawg; its life blood. I'm enjoying a cup ATM!

We travel in much the same fashion. "LIGHT" has become our mantra since transitioning from the AS to the OTT and from the RAM 3500 to our TUNDRA TV. Even with the AS, however, our disposables were largely limited to PT/TP. 4 insulated stainless wine "glasses", 2 each insulated Black Rifle Coffee Co. coffee mugs, set of 4 Corell plates/bowels, like y'all, as well. 2 each YETI-type large insulated mugs for "road-water" whilst towing... We pay a bit of a weight/volume premium by hauling around a Berkey Travel filter for our water - we figure its a trade off for not carrying a couple cases of water bottles from COSTCO (less garbage footprint w/o empty plastic to deal with). But the load-out changes and is flexible depending on the "type" of camping we're planning for a given trip. Boondocking only, combo BD & improved sites, or full hook-ups... We (or at least I) like the trip planning process - keeps the mental juices "flowing."

Can't speak for East/Midwest US - but, FYI; Starlink is the "BOMB" in the Rockies... just say'n

A pair of local Great Horned Owls stopping by for a peek in our back patio piñon tree...

I get that from Magnus all the time - he can only take so much about radios, especially antennas!

@topgun2: Noway! That looks way more like Felix and BooBoo! HA!

A mule deer and faun grazing outside the TT. Pic taken near Taos, NM.

Magnus (3 most) and Willa (old) chill'n back in 2020... He really loved his big sista (well, we did too!) WOOF!

This is "Willa", she's Magnus' big sister, mentor, and why he's turned out to be such a good Husky. This pic was taken at an Oktoberfest in Red River, NM a few years back - she's waiting patently for her cold Heineken. We'll see her someday on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge!

Concur, 100%! Magnus is part of the family and has learned that he can go where ever we go (we haven't informed him yet that we plan everything around his hairy butt!) Ha!

I can remember the days when these "tax & fee prices" were the full cost for an entire gallon of fuel... just say'n

Instead of guessing or eye-balling the OTT when leveling, we've used a standard "bullet" level placed on the floor near the main hatch for Fore/Aft and Port/Stbd level - now we're using Micro-Air's Easy Touch RV level gauge mounted on the forward bulkhead near the main hatch threshold.
