Dang - you're doing a bunch better than I am. I currently have no intent on doing anything with DC to DC charging. However, I still find the discussion interesting. Bill

Who would think that 26 novels could be written involving a Wyoming Game Warden and his family. Even if you haven't had the chance to spend much time in Wyoming, these books are easy to read and are reasonably enjoyable without being overly complicated, trashy or trite. All of these books are available as audio books too. Bill Also, there are a couple of similar series to include a Maine Game Warden and the Walt Longmire series

In doing some map research I stumbled across a couple of updates to Garmin devices that are currently available. The first is an update to IOverlander's points of interests and the second is a fairly substantial update of North American Maps. As usual, Garmin Express can be used to perform these updates or WiFi can be used if your Garmin device is equipped for it. Bill

Going through what few pics that I took at this year's Owner's Rally, I was reminded of a visitor that was there each morning as I drank my hot chocolate.

You might also want to consider throwing in a 2 to 3 foot section of pex - just in case. Bill

Nope - Those silver looking things on the bottom of the trailer are the scupper holes. They actually even draw water vapor out from between the hulls while you are traveling down the road. Bill

At this year's Rally several owners asked me about Ollie covers. Hopefully they will see (and read) this thread. Bill

Woo-Hoo Congrats and a warm welcome back to the Family. Bill p.s. John Davies had to sell "Mouse" due to health issues

Indeed - Nancy got her reward! It should be noted that Aaron, Jason, and even Scott Oliver thought that Nancy's art was wonderful. Laughs all around. Bill

I'm sure that someone here on the Forum will have some "trouble shooting" tips for you on this problem. But, I can tell you that Oliver spent several years trying to find a way to install something other than the "simple" microwave. As I understood the main issue during the time they were trying, heat dissipation was the main issue they were dealing with. Therefore, it seems (to me) likely that you have basically honed in on the root cause of your problem. Good luck in fixing what you have. Bill

Less than 10 attendees have requested the list - so far. Note that this list may not be available at the Rally in printed form. Therefore if you would like to know where attendees are located in the campground - shoot me your email address and I'll do my best to get you a copy via return email. Bill

Last chance on these brand new wheel well liners for late model F-150's! Note that these will not fit Raptors. Bill

Note that I've never heard of an Oliver "swaying". However, all of the manufacturers of current 1/2 ton trucks in one way or another "require" a weight distribution hitch. Both legal and warranty issues should be considered before towing an Elite II without a WDH. Bill

Update! Aaron Wolters from Oliver has kindly provided me with a list of registered Rally attendees for this year's rally. If you are attending the Rally and would like a copy, PM (private message) me with your email address and I will try to get this list to you via email. In addition, I will (hopefully) get the list to a printer and will have copies available at the Rally either at my site (B-03) and/or at registration. Bill p.s. note - there are currently 235 registered attendees.

We have done the list the last three years. After talking to Scott Oliver and Matt last year, they were going to try to include that information with the welcome package. So no, I am not collecting details this year. Due to a scheduling conflict with a building project here at home, we have canceled our reservations. FYI Rally attendees: After seeing the above posts I did a little bit of poking around in order to see IF this list was actually being produced for this year's Owners Rally. Well, given that I would guess that Scott Oliver delegated this job of producing an attendee list with campsite numbers to Matt Duncan, and that Matt Duncan no longer works at Oliver, the communication chain had a good likelihood of being broken. Hopefully I will be able to obtain the information we need with enough time to get copies and have them available at the Rally. However, if there is someone that you really want to meet up with, it might be advisable to contact them ahead of time to find out exactly where they will be at the Rally. In this vein - I will be in site B-03 from late Tuesday afternoon through Sunday night (October 21 through October 25). Bill

About two weeks ago my wife reported to me that her cloths dryer was not working. After a quick inspection I called an appliance repairman who explained that there was a short in the heating elements and/or an internal relay - neither of these parts were available for a repair. So, off to Lowe's we went and spent $2,000 on a new washer and dryer (had to get the pair due to them being "stacked" in the laundry room. A few days later once again my wife got my attention by saying that once again the "new" dryer was doing the very same thing that the old "broken" dryer did! This time I suspected that the circuit breaker was faulty, so, I removed the cover panel from our sub-panel "A" and inspected the breaker and wiring closely. Yep - one of the wires entering the circuit breaker for the dryer was loose. Odd that none of the other wires were loose and that the loose wire showed virtually no signs of heat. But, a five minute "fix" was all it took to solve the problem. However, obviously, it was too late to get the old dryer back let alone the $2,000. What are the odds that your battery cable was loose? What are the odds that a single wire into a breaker was loose? At least yours didn't cost you $2,000.😵‍💫 Bill

My apologies! I simply neglected to notice that what you were requesting was information on the Elite I NOT the ELITE II as I posted above. Bill

Below is a diagram for a 2017 Elite II which is the same as my 2016 hull #116. Bill p.s. included are a couple of others that you might need at some point.

Be a bit careful with your reservations for the Hiawassee rally in that they really do get crowded. They do have an "overflow" area but I can not recommend it. Also, if you go be sure to get to the pot luck dinner early because all seats under cover will be gone quickly. Bill Hiawasee artwork-2017-1 - Copy-2.tif
