Ken_Judy Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 I'll start this off with a video on how to get your F450 stuck when pulling your toyhauler 5th wheel in deep sand. There is a country song with the lyrics " The more boys I meet the more I love my Dog". Well the more toyhauler videos I watch the more I love my Oliver 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken_Judy Posted May 28, 2021 Author Share Posted May 28, 2021 While Battle Born batteries are very popular in the RV industry, Olivers choice of Lithionics brand peaked my interest. This video may explain the price of the option. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overland Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Those cells look suspiciously like the the inexpensive forklift cells that Will Prowse recommends for DIY batteries. https://overkillsolar.com/product/lifepo4-cell-100ah/ https://www.electriccarpartscompany.com/Fortune-100Ah-Aluminum-Encased-Battery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overland Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Here are some non trailer related things I subscribe to - For cooking, my favorite is surely Chef John - his recipes are always entertaining, easy to follow and I've never had one turn out bad: I think Alex on Autos is by far the most comprehensive car review channel: On the music side, one I really like is Vox's Earworm series: I like SciShow - always fun and informative: Numberphile is invariably interesting: And the History Guy is great: This Old Tony is enjoyable - would probably be more so if I had any machine shop equipment: Homestead Economics is a really good show for learning about off grid living: For hiking and backpacking info, one I like is Darwin on the Trail: And finally, David Lynch, for a daily dose of weird: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Overland Posted June 24, 2021 Share Posted June 24, 2021 This popped into my watch list since I subscribe to Victron's channel. I know that there are quite a few boat people on the forum and this is just one of those drop dead gorgeous boats that you dream about. Just need that spare $10 million. If I had it, this is exactly the sort of boat I'd want. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators SeaDawg Posted June 26, 2021 Moderators Share Posted June 26, 2021 How to replace the springs on my Bosch dishwasher door, which landed with a thud on the kitchen floor tonight.

Moderators SeaDawg Posted June 27, 2021 Moderators Share Posted June 27, 2021 This popped up today. Rivian's very cool camp kitchen, that slides out of a space between the cab and truckbed. The only thing that isn't cool is the price. I've read that it's going to be a $5k option. But, it does come complete with all dishes, pots and pans, and they throw in a coffee grinder... 2008 Ram 1500 4 × 4 2008 Oliver Elite, Hull #12 Florida and Western North Carolina, or wherever the truck goes.... 400 watts solar.

Heavy spring, and plastic clips, and what appears to be nylon cord. At least it's heavier guage than what was in my LG dishwasher, and easier to replace... Same parts for Thermador and Gaggineau. Dishwasher was approximately 1k, on sale, six years ago. Cord, and plastic. Attached to spring, which also seats in a slot of, yup, plastic. Edit to add: while I was at my mom's today, helping her with her cell phone issues, Paul installed the springs and cords. Took maybe a half hour, total. Amazon one day delivery today, for the parts. So, dishwasher fixed. One icemaker of two now working. A lot of little things in one week ar home..
