  1. Wonder how long to tow an Oliver LE-2 coast to coast,maybe 3-4 weeks🤣
  2. We use Blaster products. We have both the silicone and Multipurpose. I use the silicone one on the steps
  3. Take the screw to Home Depot, Ace Hardware, or other hardware store and you should find a similar screw, just get a slight larger screw. You might purchase 2 different sizes to insure one grabs the fiberglass. That is very strange. Did you remove the inverter face for some reason previously?
  4. We have TST Flow Thru
  5. We have had a Goal Zero 400 Lithium power pack for 4-5 years. I got it as a back up to run my CPAP if home power goes out. I have taken it on every camping trip from truck camper to Oliver. I store it in the closet. I used the other night when we had severe storms for my CPAP and we charged our phones and my hearing aids. When we take our truck fridge, I use it overnight to power the fridge, and then plug it into 12-volt in the truck to charge it back up. I have their solar panel that I can take, but I find it bulky to take on a trip.
  6. The rubber ones move a lot while driving and we had one developed a small leak. TST say metal stems We switch and haven't had an issue. We used Clark Tire, a large truck tire place. They supplied and installed. I would be concerned with a major failure with rubber. My 2¢
  7. We use the Andersen levelers. I had kinda the perfect storm of owner error. I should have backed up onto them with the thicker end to the back.
  8. Didn't have enough chocks and my wife didn't place the Andersen ramp leveler wedges in the correct place. It was a cluster of han error. I will also start greasing the ball. Watched a bunch of YouTube videos. I think this was a case of big time owner error🙃
  9. You hit the nail on the head. My wife placed the plastic wedges on the wrong side of the Andersen Levelers. That was just a few of the errors that were made. Next time we will bring our "X" chocks We will also grease the ball. After watching several YouTube videos, I believe that might be a good reason the bulldog doesn't come off the ball smoothly.
  10. F250, no Anderson WD. We use Andersen jack blocks (round ones) and the Andersen ramp levelers for side to side. This is the 3rd campground in a row we needed to level side to side and all 3 times the trailer jumped.
  11. I must be doing something wrong. Today unhitching on a slight downgrade, we got Jolli Olli level, set chocks and raised the tongue. The truck and trailer appeared to be lined up. When the bulldog came off the ball, the trailer lerched sideways close to 1-1/2' and back a foot, with the front jack block sliding and the front jack almost coming off the block. This is the worst I have ever seen. We have this happen on a regular basis (not bad like today, but almost every time we unhitch) and don't know how to stop the tension and lerching. I have to believe the bulldog should be able to lift off the ball smoothly. Thanks for any advice.
  12. Spot On👍
  13. Gotta tell you, reading this made me dizzy🤣🤣 I've been following this. Great job on the repair and for being very determined to. I would say that was at least a 3-beer job, but likely a 24-can job. Safe to say, I have no desire to do what you did😎
  14. We were thinking about a tour, but at $55+ per person, and the fact neither drink bourbon, we opted to explore downtown Bardstown
  15. In the 1-1/2 years+ that I have had this rewards card, I have only had one $3.50 charge. I don't believe it was a monthly charge.
  16. I had a $3.50 charge 9/23 and nothing since. I have a small balance to be used soon.😊
  17. That is the card company. It doesn't have anything to do with Oliver. Seems like Oliver is looking out for us, by doing away with the debit cards and sending $50, so you can have 100% of the payment.
  18. Spotted an LE-2 westbound on the Bluegrass Parkway in Kentucky, just west of Mile Marker 15, at 2:45pm. We were headed East from Elizabethtown, KY after watching our grandson play in a soccer tournament back to our Jolli Olli, Hull #1045 at My Old Kentucky Home State Park. Safe travels.
  19. Oliver is doing away with the debit card and will now send a check. Had the fee taken out on our first showing, but not on any of the other showings. I spent all but $10 on our Texas trip. I would use it up asap.
  20. What a smart dog. Our labs have never damaged the screen. They love to lay at the screen door. That is amazing.
  21. Thanks for sharing
  22. People have way too much time on their hands. Why do people have to keep on speculating and coming up with all these theories? Why not just load your Oliver and go camping? 🤣
  23. Nothing like some good HEB Pecan Coffee. Brought a supply home. Went to college at Trinity U. In SA with Howard E Butt, III, Chairman of the Board. He was a tennis player.
