We will stop by with a bag of HEB-tos 🙂 (HEB corn chips)

Hi Bob and Barb - Will let Donna and / or Scott answer regarding the rally itself but it’s being held at Inks Lake State Park. That’s a popular park (the most popular one by some counts). We just looked and at this moment in time there are 4 electric sites left. You may want to grab one asap - they are not close to the main rally area but they are on the same side of the lake. Hope to get to meet you at the rally! We started with an LE I so always love to meet LE I people.

I should have listed that - all the lockers out there came back with a Tuesday delivery date - one day after we got back to Dallas. But that is a great option in most places!

Last Thursday we arrived at the campsite and, hoping to help Reset 2.0 (LE II Hull 1364) cool faster in the Texas sun extended the awnings. After completing setup, we decided to go explore. I grabbed the Awning Remote and hit the "In" button. "L" was what I got on the display. I assumed that the remote was not telling me that I was a total loser, and that this indicated a low battery condition. Lesson 1: There is no / zero / zilch reserve capacity on the awning remote - once it says L that stands for out of luck. I pulled the batteries out, shuffled them around, rubbed magic pixie dust into them and got two more pulses out of them to get the awning retracted. For those that don't have a full battery inventory of everything that uses a battery in your Oliver (that would include me) the awning remote uses three CR2430 Lithium batteries. This would be great if we camped in urban areas. However, as we were in the hill country of Texas ... Walmart Fredericksburg - no stock Home Depot - no stock Lowes - no stock Ace Hardware Fredericksburg - 2 Ace Hardware Wimberly - 2 Remember - I need 3.... So off on a delightful tour of Central Texas, kind of a preview of the Texas Rally coming up in October. Breakfast in Johnson City, battery pickup in Wimberly, shopping for flour and bourbon in Dripping Springs, lunch at Ab Astris in Hye, battery pickup in Fredericksburg, then back to the trailer in Stonewall. Lesson 2: Have a battery inventory and spares. I never thought about the fact that the awning remote had batteries... Lesson 3: Texas, especially the Hill Country, is a great place to drive around in. (Ok, so I already knew that 🤣.)

For what it's worth - I reached out to 4State yesterday after my Aug 27 shipping date passed with no update. The magic date for shipment is now September 15. Since it seems from this discussion we are all waiting for a batch to be built, I'm guessing this will impact everyone that is waiting for them. Cue "Fly Like an Eagle" ... "Time keeps on slippin' slippin' slippin' into the future"

Takes me back to my datacenter days. 🙂 "Why do you spin five generators when you can run the whole place on three?" "N + 1 and one to not spin up properly and get sent down."

Ours looks like this - Keyway is blurred because with AI these days you never know. It is a two-sided keyway - notches on the top and bottom of the key. If you did not get one with your lock contact service and there should be a serial number on the lock that would allow you to order a backup. Note that the key number is the blur where the grey box is.

Yep - I came across this thread and ordered from 4State. They said “ships in three days” but it’s been almost a month so far. When I contacted 4State they seemed puzzled as to why I was concerned that I had not received the product. Good to know I’m not the only one waiting on these.

I’m not aware of a default code for the lock. Do you have the override key? If its a LE II twin bed and (1) your basement door is not locked (2) you are agile and small and (3) you have the pass through door under the nightstand I have heard of people getting back in from there. We keep our physical key in the tow vehicle for this very reason. (Plus I am NOT agile and small….)

So true - I guess I am simply scared that if I invested in a subscription, I would consider it sunk cost and decide "Well I have the magazine, might as well get a boat." 🤣🤣

Thanks for sharing. The first paragraph looks interesting, but the rest is behind their paywall. While I sailed in high school (a long time ago), I don't see a boat in my life anytime soon, so a subscription is likely not a good investment for me. 😀 Looks like the author is advocating a drill guide method, which certainly seems like a promising path. With a growing number of holes that I need to put into our Ollie it's a topic I need to know more about. (Wanders off to do Internet research on drill guides and fiberglass.)

Hi Mike - welcome to the forum! We have pulled a LE I and LE II with our F150 EcoBoost Max Tow with no issues. Glad to discuss what we take and don't take - last trip to the scales we were fine on weight for the F150. Our most recent trip was Texas to Colorado crossing the divide several times - no problems going up or down the passes.

Well - it finally happened to us. We broke the hinge on the Norcold Fridge in Reset (Hull # 1030 LE I). Easy fix right? It is if you can source the parts. For reference, the parts are Left Hand Hinge - Norcold 619042 Right Hand Hinge - Norcold 619041 Unfortunately, I have only found a source for the Right Hand Hinge. The Left Hand Hinge seems to be very elusive. Have a service ticket in with Oliver to see if they have a source, as well as a request in directly to Norcold. Does anyone have a favorite source for Norcold parts that you could share? Or a spare hinge that I could purchase from you? 🙂

Rebecca and I send best wishes - hope that the surgery goes well and quick recovery.

Would not recommend using them like this. Plus - I have no idea how the occupants ever reached that first step.
