  1. Yes, I thought the same thing. But, the original hoses did give me more "wiggle" room - particularly when taking the tanks in and out for refilling. Having said this, I'd still do the same thing over again in that the new hoses really do reduce that big bend in the original and clean up the space a bit. Bill
  2. There are a couple of sales going on that I saw today: 1 - The Cooper Discoverer HT3 LT 225/75R/16 has a holiday "special" good until December 31, 2022 at Discount Tire where you get $100 off on a set of four. 2 - Harbor Freight has all generators on sale at 20% off valid through January 5, 2023.

  3. For what its worth - last Spring I replaced my hoses with two of THESE in the 12 inch length combined with two of THESE emergency gas cut off devices. All was purchased from TechnoRV.com. A couple of notes - 1 - make sure that you check the size of the connections on the hoses. Given your hull # I'd bet that you will need adaptors for these hoses to connect to the regulator. 2 - Given that the fittings on any of these hoses are made of brass, be careful that you do not over-tighten the fittings in that you stand a good chance of stripping the threads on that relatively soft brass. I believe that the torque setting is 25 foot pounds (but please reconfirm this). 3 - Make certain that you use "gas" tape or pipe dope. The tape is a bright yellow color and the pipe dope will be clearly marked as for use with gas. Bill
  4. The EZTire TPMS (like this) also does not have to be rotating to read temp and pressure.. Bill
  5. "That's" putting a new "wrinkle" on it!😃
  6. Perhaps a fitting "offset" to the wishes above. But, the wishes are the same! Bill
  7. When the bots hit it really didn't take long to see that they had found a way around the usual safeguards that were built into the platform we use. Quickly, Jason (W.) and Matt (D) went into find a solution mode - but - with the holidays not only did they have limited resources at Oliver but the software people at the platform were also down to a skeleton staff. Meanwhile, as a number of members noted, several of the moderator staff were "very" busy playing "whack a bot". That's when it was decided to simply close new registrations through the Christmas holidays and get back at finding a better solution once people were back at work with at least a somewhat "normal" schedule. Since many companies are also giving employees Christmas Monday off (December 26) I assume that any "serious" work in this regard will not begin until Tuesday (December 27). Past experience has shown that these people are very good and I would think that it will not take more than a few days to get to the bottom of what's going on. Certainly, everyone will be advised when we are once again "open for business". Bill p.s. of course, in the mean time, non-members can still see posts on the Forum. They can not see Classifieds nor can they add posts of their own but all other things are available to them.
  8. For THAT - I'd change my name to "Ollie" 😁
  9. Obviously there's been some elf magic happening here - it wasn't me though. Ho! Ho! Ho! 🎅
  10. I don't believe that it was vibration that caused Oliver to take this stance. It has more to do with the exhaust from the generator being drawn into the cabin of the Oliver via the bath window and/or the bath fan or the vent. Bill
  11. A nicely worded request to Matt Duncan should produce results. Bill
  12. cyborg scum!🤬
  13. There is actually a white LEII out there with red spots called Lady Bug.
  14. Dave - No antlers on THAT reindeer! Nice looking pup though. Happy Hanukah, Merry Christmas and a happy and safe New Year. Bill
  15. Welcome - you are now part of that Family. Bill
  16. I live in a "planned community" that, similar to most of these "associations", has a long list of rules and regulations. Most of these rules and regulations I agree with, but, there are a number of them that I think are silly, too restrictive, poorly worded, and/or just plain wrong. Never-the-less, I do my best to know what the rules are and abide by them all. It is incumbent upon me to know the rules and make sure that I stay inside them - just the same as it is with any rule or law in my area. Even though I may or may not agree with the laws governing "camping" at these Harvest Host sites it apparently is a fact that these laws are being broken. So, the alternative is to either abide by the law or get active in getting the law changed. Claiming a lack of knowledge of the law is not a valid excuse - but - it certainly is worth a try at least the first time you are caught 😇. Bill
  17. #3 - yes #2 - yes #1 - "necessary" - no Bill
  18. Are you sure about this? My 2016 - hull # 117 - does slide open like the other windows. But, it also via the two red levers at either end can be opened as an emergency exit. If your rear window does not function like the rest in the trailer then why did they put a screen in it in the first place? Bill
  19. Farm Bureau
  20. The attic and the storage compartment above the rear window are one in the same thing. Not being familiar with your Ollie - mine is a bunch older - are you sure that you're not confusing the little switch on the cable antenna booster box? The cable not connected to anything is most likely the other end of the satellite cable and is used to connect to a satellite decoder box. Bill
  21. Left click on your avatar left click on "account Settings" find "Signature" on left side of screen left click on "Signature" Enter the info and left click on save Bill
  22. Just what in the world is all that white stuff? No wonder you don't want to move your Ollie from its cozy garage! Bill
  23. Have a good time at the Mothership! Take plenty of pics and say "Hi" to everyone for me. Bill p.s. it looks like your weather should be very nice in Hohenwald too.
  24. I'd be willing to bet that Matt Duncan will be there. Even if you already have your Ollie, you might want to stop by and introduce yourself to Matt - he is a great guy at Oliver to know. However, DO NOT agree to play golf with him unless you are very good at that game.😄 Bill
  25. As I understand it, the basic answer to your question is - YES. You may want to PM Mike & Carol and/or ScubaRx for more details. Wish I was going too! Bill
