Failed Andersen tension chain coupler - ideas?
Mike and Carol replied to JRK's topic in Towing an Oliver
I’m not. I sold the Andersen Hitch 4 years ago when I got the 2500. I used the Andersen for almost 5 years with the half tons. Mike -
I have the Husky from Home Depot. Nice size and thickness. It’s usually on sale around Christmas.

I learned it from a Casita owner….

Maybe I can glue some astroturf to the inside of the door. Or, use some of the rat fur that’s inside a Casita? We’ll probably just live with it. Mike

That’s a good point, I wonder if a change in the door was made after 2010. We’ve got a number of horizontal cracks in our 2016. Mike

Happy Thanksgiving, all! Got the turkey on the smoker early this morning. Expecting a house full by noon. Hope everyone has a wonderful day. Mike and Carol

Looks like it might be @Patriot?

I’ve got horizontal cracks all up and down the inside of the door. No separation yet. It’s mostly cosmetic and we’re living with it for now. Mike

Mine is zip tied to the tongue so it doesn’t hang down.

Outfitting our new to us Oliver LE II
Mike and Carol replied to Tideline77's topic in General Discussion
We have a round rug that fits in the square bathroom floor. It stays there until shower time and then, like others do, it becomes a bath mat during showers for when you step out of the bathroom. We’ve never seen the need for the fancy teak floor coverings. They do look cool but seem like a bit of extra work. Mike -

Upgraded Shower and Bathroom Access Hatch

There is also one going into the black tank flush. -
Shore Power inlet issue that led to small fire.
Mike and Carol replied to Hoosier's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
I had the same thing happen a few years ago and posted about it then. One wire on the trailer side of the connection was loose. Melted both sides of the connection. Replaced both the outlet and the power cord. You can access the outlet from under the dinette. Not something I ever thought to check. -
What are you listening to? Video Thread
Mike and Carol replied to JWalmsley's topic in General Discussion
Two of my favorites! -
Agree. If he added “when stopped” it would be accurate. Our Audi SQ5 shuts off the engine whenever we stop. I can override it, which I usually do because I find it annoying and don’t like the short lag when it starts back up after the traffic light turns green.
-
Same here. Maybe a Christmas gift? I still think they’re cool.

I just checked the Apple App Store and it is no longer there. It is no longer supported or updated but still works. I guess I need to stop recommending it!! Here’s my RV folder. UC is first in the second row and UC Military is bottom right.

Sorry we missed you!

We were at Table Rock State Park this week. We saw an Oliver drive by (we were in Campground 2) but it kept going. We had lunch at the Keeter Center, we usually visit there while in Branson. We’ve been to TRSP many times, my grandparents lived in Branson many years, we spent summers there when I was a kid. Mike

Our Vornado has three settings, 750, 1150, 1500. The lowest setting is enough for temps down into the 40’s. We’ve used the middle setting to get things warm while camping in the 30’s. We rarely use the 1500W setting, in the teens and 20’s it will get the trailer warmed up and then we go to one of the lower settings. It’s got a wide base and is super stable. It also has a switch on the bottom that shuts the unit off if it is not sitting flat. We’ve been in the Kansas City area the last couple of nights, overnight temps near 40 when we wake up. Using the lowest setting (750) we kept the temperature in the high 60s for sleeping. That’s not running constantly. I think the new ones have a digital temperature readout. Ours just has a knob (8 years old). If you’re not going to camp in sub freezing temps I think the small Vornado would be fine. It’s a very quiet unit. Mike
