  1. We have gone with Bunny, because she is white and our last name rhymes with Rabbit, you take it from there.
  2. Plus one. Hopefully, we never need them, but referrals are always good to have.
  3. Surprising to hear of 3 of these incidents when they have only made ~1700. Still only a .17% rate but they tow so well. Context on why is helpful, as reaching down for a phone while towing and losing control has very little to do with the trailer.
  4. Nice! Big step forward. We have really liked the Truma Aquago. Customizing before you even use it! It is your first TT so give yourself some grace as you learn how to use it and tow with it. Luckily Olivers tow extremely well.
  5. We have the Calmark as well. It is pricey but works well with great service and fits well. We looked at other generic ones, but just ended up not trusting the fit or the quality enough.
  6. That is pretty much where we ended as well. Too much of a price bump for off-road capabilities we were not going to use.
  7. We don't drink from it at all, but we do cook if the water will boil. We have a 5-gallon water container in the truck bed. The challenge we face is that we prefer cold water. While the refrigerator can hold more food than we anticipated, we don't have an effective solution for keeping cold water on hand. We often forget to fill small plastic bottles and put them in the refrigerator and like our bigger Stanely-style water containers.
  8. In regard to this. Here is what I have done when I need to "clear" a Truma code. I have not had your code but in case it helps. 1) Open the panel to the heater outside. Turn switch to the middle or off position. Wait at least 30 seconds. Then turn it back on by flipping the switch up or down. The other option is reset and there are steps here for that. What is the reset function on the CP plus used for?
  9. max of 3 inches? Ouch, that does not seem like a lot of airflow.
  10. Hmmmm, not loving this as I often have my service paused for months (especially over the winter). I am more on the side of saying this is Starlinks way of getting a bit more money out of everyone. Here is some more info Starlink Replaces Free Pause Mode With $5 Monthly Charge | PCMag It is not optional: "SpaceX is sending emails to customers who have used paused mode, telling them to opt in to standby mode or lose their paused service line." "internet speeds will be capped at 500kbps. " You are not doing much at 500kbps.
  11. The fact that they turn on to their last setting may have sold me. I dislike that the master switch activates the touch lights. However, if they could adjust to a lower setting or turn on blue, that would be nice. I just don't like that when I don't want them on I have to go touch each one.
  12. Welcome to the family. Hopefully, you can get her out soon!
  13. We were in Canada in end of May and start of June and it was great. I have heard a few people stress about this but our experience says that is media scare and not a real thing. We found people to be very nice, engaging and talkative.
  14. I use some white lithium but to each their own. Here is a good video on it and he even calls out how the Anderson hitch is different than others.
  15. Thanks @Patriot. I have limited room on the side to work on maintenance efforts as well. I have been using a little giant to do the work so far. I love that ladder but did not know they had planks. This looks like the solution for me.
  16. We got to spend a nice week along the Salmon river. On the way home at a gas station I had a guy checking out our Oliver. He comes over and asks to see it. He says “it looks like one of the silver ones”, my first signal he has not looked at trailers much. He asked what they are priced at and I said “they start at 75” to which he said “7,500, that is not to bad” LOL…. I said no not 75 hundred 75 thousand. Clearly not understanding that 7,500 would not get you almost any trailer confirmed that while he can appreciate the Oliver he has no concept of the TT market. 😁
  17. We are all learning lessons. It is ok for them to be embarrassing, we just hope they are never painful.
  18. @John DorrerCampsite was B70. I think it was the best one in the place as there was no one between us and the mountain.
  19. We recently returned from a week-and-a-half-long trip through Glacier and Banff for my 50th Birthday. Farily last minute all 3 of my girls decided to join us on this trip. This created some logistical challenges we had to figure out. We got it all worked out but it left us with one night where no one had a place to stay except in the Ollie. That meant all 5 of us sleeping in the trailer! Who says it is just a couple's trailer, bring on the family camping 🙂 Not a great picture but had to share. The girls were great sports about it and we had a fun night hanging out and watching a movie. We ended up having a wonderful birthday trip through Glacier and Banff. It was our first time in Banff and it did not disappoint. An amazing hike up Avalanche Lake in Glacier. And then we got an amazing site in Banff Tunnel Mountain II Lake Louise did not disappoint either. We also had a great time talking with our neighbor, who was headed to Alaska in their EarthRoamer (pricey little machine)! Overall, an incredible way to celebrate a 50th birthday!
  20. I just got the heavy duty 2” and it fit my receiver as expected. Mine is an after market receiver though. About to try it out on our first trip. Is the anti-wobble bolt already tightened on your rack by chance?
  21. Looks like someone was not paying attention when installing the jack.
  22. I'm not sure how you can enjoy a roomy spot with nice grass and a view. Hope you can make it through the week 😉
  23. For your 3B route you also pass the Atomic Museum Experimental Breeder Reactor-I. If that type of history is of interest to you I highly recommend it. We enjoyed the self-directed tour a lot and found it very educational. We also did Craters of the Moon last year and hiked into the Lava Caves which was very enjoyable. If the weather turns hot while you are there make sure to bring water as it can get very hot in the sun walk over all the black lava rock. It is very cool scenery. While in Twin Falls along with the Shoshone Falls Park the Scenic View Perrine Coulee Waterfall is cool as well.
  24. Plus one for the power adapter. It works great with rearview mirrors that have power. I have that in my truck and makes power and setup easy. I have a Rove as well. Hides behind the rearview.
  25. First true boondocking adventure for us this weekend for our shakedown. No reservations and just showing up to see what we could find. We lucked out to find only us with a spot next to the river in a bird sanctuary. Thank you Army COE! To be honest, I never thought a camping adventure like this would ever happen!
