I agree that your reported figures still seem high even if your exhaust were to flow straight back. And, yes, the fresh water tank is more to the curb side and, yes, it could have something to do with the weight distribution. But your cited temp differences still strike me as a bit much to be explained by either of these two things. When was the last time you checked your bearings? Bill

and my view!

honking class A

my Ollie is

Another thought although unless there is an extreme difference I doubt that it could explain the kind of difference you are seeing - have you checked the cargo loading of the trailer? A fully loaded fridge plus loaded closet plus loaded kitchen drawers plus .... could be placing too much weight on the curb side. Bill

Or didn't do

Currently Twist is parked outside the Cody, WY laundry. Crowds are lower this year and camp grounds are rarely full. Weather has been warm and windy. However, fishing has been good with more water in the streams than usual. Bill

If you prefer, Service will send those to you without the decal. Bill

Glad you are part of the Family now - WELCOME! Bill

Have a great and safe July 4th everyone. We may have our "issues" but as far as I'm concerned - this is still the best there is. Bill

There has just got to be an interesting story about the life of #266. I'd love to hear it. Bill

New truck, new Ollie, and what looks to be a "new" garage - life is certainly good! Congrats! Enjoy the heck out of all of it. Bill

The water pump ONLY runs on DC. I always carry a couple of milk jugs filled with water right near the toilet. That way I do not have to carry any water in my fresh water tank but still have more than enough to flush the toilet. This tactic also comes in handy when it is cold outside and I don't want to have water in the plumbing lines due to the possibility of freezing. Bill

Mine wasn't so glamorous - I "ran away" from home and decided to sleep with my dog in the back yard in his dog house. I still don't know just how it was that I awoke the next morning in my own bed!

Amazing what these "little" trailers can do! Sorry to hear about the axles. Hopefully "they" will get the situation taken care of soon so that you can get back to testing the limits. Nice pics! I didn't realize that Clam made a "red" one - thought that green and brown were the only colors even though they do make ice shelters in a number of colors. Bill

Yet another use for canned air. Always carry a can of that stuff with me. Fridge, water heater, furnace can all use a "blast" every now and then. Bill

Ham radio And - to dry his pants.☠️

I bought some of these for my wife for Christmas. After a small amount of derision from her (she's the plant person and I'm the hole digger, mulch totter and all around grunt in this regard) she agreed to give them a try - they worked and worked well! Score one for the husband!🥰 Bill

Or, if you have a Harbor Freight close you might try one of THESE and save yourself a few bucks. Whatever you do - DO NOT test these things with your hand, foot or even someone else's body part. Don't ask me how I know this.🤪 Bill

Which is one of the reasons that you "settle" the entire transaction at your bank and have them verify that "bank check" prior to signing the title. However, the wire transfer is still the fastest, simplest and easiest way for settlement. Bill

I've always insisted on a "bank to bank wire transfer of funds". These wire transfers can be and should be completed on the same day. I meet with the buyer at my bank and ask the tellers to confirm that the funds are in my account. We then have the North Carolina title transfer completed and notarized by a notary at the bank. I also always give the buyer a bill of sale. A "bank check" may also be used but the seller should always ask the tellers to confirm that the funds are indeed available and secured at the bank that issued the check prior to signing the title. Bill

Sure am glad about that - given the "camo green" color of the pool noodle I'm sure you could miss it.😁

Wow! That's some serious sticky pad coverage. At first I thought that you were trying to compete with Foy & Mirna for some kind of acoustic panels for enhanced decor of the ceiling.😆 Ever have one of those pads come loose during the night?

Certainly you will know when they do move in!☠️🐧
