We’ve found that Loves and the other major truck stops almost always have high diesel prices. I always look for a Walmart, prices are always low. On major routes most small towns have a Walmart close by, gives us a chance to walk around a bit too. Even better are Buc-ee’s, always low price diesel, just not a lot of them around yet. Quik Stops and supermarkets are also lower price. Mike

Ollie LE 1 on cover of QST magazine
Mike and Carol replied to Ghostriderc227's topic in Events & Rallies
My guess without seeing the cover is that it is Pete Marks, @bugeyedriver. He’s a HAM guy and mentioned being on the cover. Mike -
Enclosed Aluminum Box Front Mount
Mike and Carol replied to Tim and Christie's topic in Ollie Modifications
Brian - three bolts, all with their own washers and nuts. I drilled up through the fiberglass, then through the bottom of the box. I had the box clamped to the tongue. The hardware is stainless steel with neoprene washers on the aluminum. Mike -

Lithium Now vs wait for lower cost
Mike and Carol replied to Sofaman's topic in Welcome To The Oliver Travel Trailer Forums
Assuming you have AGMs now, I would wait until they’re at end of life and then replace with lithiums. That’s what I did. It would be nice to source our own USA lithium and make our batteries here. Mike -

Thanks, Craig. I’ll work on my screen name vs real name recall! Mike

Not sure who Craig is, I’ll check with Jason.

Yep. The site we were in was reserved before the cutoff. We normally just reserve after we arrive at the rally. Not this year. Mike

How does Oliver recommend disabling the 7pin?

Xantrex Inverter Issues? Try a Hard Reboot
Mike and Carol replied to Rivernerd's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
When my Xantrex 2K inverter was acting up a few years ago the Xantrex tech had me do a few things which did not solve the issue. Then he said to do a hard reboot. I left it overnight and when I reconnected the issue was gone. Mike -
Removing interior odors/smells
Mike and Carol replied to Going Coastal's topic in Mechanical & Technical Tips
When we had a gray water leak that left water on the lower hull, we had a slight odor in the trailer. I opened the hatches and placed a fan under the bath side dinette seat and blew air all day, first toward the back of the trailer then toward the front. It dried everything out well and the odor went away too. Stick your head in the seat opening and see if that is what you are smelling. Also, put some water in your black tank with your toilet additive to see if your surprises will loosen up over time. Mike -
Nice install! How bright is the LED? Which model did you order, I see several maxxair vent fans that are similar. Thanks! Mike
