Great addition, John. Now, grab a can of Krylon semi-gloss black spray paint and give that hitch a shot. All will look new again. Bill

I've got no solution (other than pulling the plug on that LED) for the fridge light(s) problem. But, in order to keep any odors at bay while in storage, first take a half dozen newspaper pages, crumple them up and stick them in the fridge and freezer with the door(s) cracked open. Bill

OK - How's this for a "bump"? These tickets are just begging for a new home - someone out there can use them! Bill

Might something like THIS work for keeping that door closed? Bill p.s. "invention is the mother of necessity" and I really like your work.

Craig - Sure do wish I could use these tickets of yours! And as Seadawg said above - thanks for offering them here on the Forum. Bill

That front wheel drive must be awesome though. 🤪

Richard - If its not too late - Be sure to take a camera (and use it a bunch) and a small notebook. Have fun! Bill

I have no idea - but - have you contacted Oliver Service about this? Bill

I'll chime in on the hammer locks: Patriot put me on to these a couple of years back and they are everything they are supposed to be as both Patriot and GJ state above. Perhaps the only downside I can think of with these is that they could be a bit of a problem to remove. But, why remove them? Bill

Yep - same stuff I referenced above. Bill

What better reason do you need?😉

No need to remove - but - it would be helpful to many to know what the original "problem" was in order to reference it back. Bill

I've never had a problem with the single sharkbite fitting I put into my Ollie. I made sure to secure the fitting and pipes near it very well so that it does not move. I still carry a few spares (sharkbite straight and 90 degree fittings) with me in case I need to do a repair while on the road. However, if doing a pex repair of mod at home I use a crimp. Bill

Strange how this works!😁

I agree that they are cool and attach easily and will probably last a long time... But, this is one of those items that I've told myself I need but I simply can't figure out why I need them. Bill

THIS is what I bought for the dog house. But, it is still in my workshop unused because I've not needed it - yet. Bill

I also took a look for it in the "Playstore" this afternoon and apparently it is NOT there . Bill

Go to the back side of the detector and follow the wires. Shortly, you should run into a black round thing that is the fuse holder. Bill

Yes - this has been done by more than one owner (not me - yet). Yes - there is a way to place shut off valves in each of the lines mentioned. Being "practical" is in the eyes of the person doing the work or paying the bill for having the work performed for you. Good luck with your plumbing skills and working in tight quarters! Bill

Since you know that there really isn't any CO nor propane in the camper while it is in storage - why not simply take the fuse out of the detector. However, if you do this, please make sure in some manner that you put that fuse back in before using the Ollie the next time. Bill

I always do this but I then take Saran Wrap and cover the top of the toilet bowl so that the antifreeze doesn't evaporate over the winter. Perhaps this also serves to lessen the "fumes". Bill

As has been written many time here on the Forum - install these "gutters" on a very warm day and/or use a hair dryer or strong warm sun to warm both the area where the gutters will go and the gutters themselves, clean the area where they are to be applied VERY well, apply blue painters tape over the gutters to hold them securely in place for at least 24 hours. Due to the gutters wanting to stay straight and not bend around the curve of the windows, the more surface area that you give to be stuck to the side of the camper the better. If I had mine to do over again, I'd take the gutter down the sides of the windows just shy of 1/2 way - I only went down about 3 inches and that is not enough. Good luck! Bill

AND - not only was the repair less expensive but you also kept additional stuff out of the landfill! Good job! Bill

@Donna and Scott Do you have any statistics available for the Texas Rally? # of Oliver Travel Trailers there # of other trailers associated with the rally not OTT's # of people attending Anything else Bill

As if they knew we were talking about heating, Long Long Honeymoon just released THIS Video that contains some additional ideas. Bill
