Against The Wind

As always, the Oliver family is so helpful to new, rookie Olly owners! Thanks so much for your advice and wisdom. 😃

Hi friends. Winter’s coming and as a new Oliver owner, I’d like to ask about my batteries. We have the lithium platinum package (640ah) and as expensive as they are want to be sure we take good care of them while Ollys off the road for a while. Living in southeast Tennessee, we can experience temps in the teens for short periods so, should I remove my batteries and store them in a nice dry basement or leave them hooked up to shore power and let the battery management system control them? We will be storing Olly under a Calmark cover in our driveway and have access to 30 amp shore power. As always, your advice is most welcome.

Well, thanks Bill. That sheds a little light on the situation. Perhaps in the near future, then.

Hello friends. Just wondering if anything ever happened with Oliver branded merchandise. As a new OE2 owner, I would be proud to wear a cap, vest, shirt etc. So, Oliver, what’s up?

Thanks for all the timely responses, friends. Your suggestions will be closely regarded when the time comes for this upgrade.

Hi friends. Thinking of adding a TPMS to our Olly sometime in the near future. Would like your valuable opinions on what to look at and what to stay away from. Yes, mention brand names, please. 😁

And to my other friends for their input. Everyone is so helpful 😁

Thanks Patriot for your input and guidance with posting my signature information. 😃

Hello friends, once again it’s hull 1452 asking your advice about Calmark covers for our Olly. After reading several posts about Calmark, we decided to invest in the best (buy once, cry once…) but have a question about having access to our Lithionics batteries in the off season. Calmark can custom make your covers with more access points than the entry door if needed, for additional cost.Our question is: will we need access to the Platinum batteries in the off season? I haven’t figured out all the ins and outs of adding our trailer/tow vehicle info yet, so bear with me, please😉

Hello friends, just recently assumed ownership of hull 1452 and was looking for a good cover to store it under when off the road. We like the Calmark covers best but would be open minded to others. Anyone out there got one for sale?😃

Hello again, friends. We are now Oliver Legacy Elite II owners! Our now good friends Jim and Maggie Posey have decided to sell their hull #1452 due to health concerns to us. We are so excited to join this forum now as owners instead of “wannabes”. We humbly seek your knowledge and suggestions to improve our Oliver experience.

Well friends, ask and you shall receive. Got an email from OTT coupla days ago showing off the new windows and listing changes made to the 2026 model E2. It’s my understanding the new windows open outward ( similar to some food trucks) but my question is how the shades and screens work on the inside. Has anyone heard about this operation or am I living under a rock? As always, thanks so much for your intel.

Hello friends. Just wondering if anyone has seen information or pics of 2026s yet. Thanks. 😊

Thanks so much friends. Your experience is worth so much to a greenhorn like us. 6-8 inches is a rough estimate for the curb. It rises up at a pretty mild slope and did ok with my boat before I sold it. It just struck me as I looked at some photos of campers that it could be a potential problem. Thanks again for your input. 😃 We hope to become owners soon and will be asking more questions in the near future.

Hello friends. Just a quick question to those of you who are in the know. After visiting the Mother Ship recently to satisfy a few questions in our minds, another rose after we were home. Where we plan to store our LE2 between trips is our 2nd driveway which has a 6-8 inch curb at the at the beginning and must be crossed to enter the driveway. Our question is: In their most retracted position, what is the distance in inches between the bottom of the rear stabilizer jacks and the street? Just wanna be sure we’re not going to drag jacks off crossing the curb while backing Ollie over it. Your expert opinions and knowledge will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance
