I too recently got an older 815 that I'm prepping for a winter trip to a warmer climate. Unlike yours, mine was NOT well maintained or cared for. You scored! Most of my work is based on needed repairs, not fun upgrades like you. Something I think that is going to be on my long repair list soon...

2000 Lance Lite 815 on a steel flatbed. Currently mounted with HappiJac turnbuckles from stock camper anchors to rub rails on flatbed, 1" stall mats between the two. Long term plan is side boxes for storage, at which point I won't want turnbuckles blocking that space. Short term, the stock...

Walking Horse, you have a build thread going for your project?

Recently bought this for my wife's Tacoma. Just too small for our needs, so selling. https://kalispell.craigslist.org/rvs/d/columbia-falls-four-wheel-camper-fleet/7348423177.html

Towing. I know the stated specs, just looking for some real world experience from people who tow with 1500 awd's on a regular basis. I'd be towing a 5000-6000 lb trailer on a semi-regular basis for work. Just wondering how these rigs hold up to use like that. The majority of the vans I'm looking...

Would love to see 15 average. I don't even average that with the truck empty. Average of 18 tanks with truck empty is 14.1. Best was 16 & only saw that twice. Mostly town but some highway. Engine is stock. PO put a leveling lift on the front end. Gears are 3.73 tires are 285/75 16. I'm all...

OP here with a new setup. 2002 F350 SRW, 7.3l power stroke, auto trans, crew cab, long bed, 4X4 & a 2007 Snow River 9'6" with a slide out. Just got back from a trip to Baja. Of the 2600 miles I traveled in the states (& kept mileage records for) I averaged 10.4mpg. Best was 11.8, worst was 9.3...

Bump on the update! I started a project on one of these years ago. Ran out of time & money, plus ADD kicked in... This is as far as I got. I'd love to see this go to completion, subscribed.

Any Maverick 1000SL owners out there? Found one a few hours away at, what seems like, a good price ($14,500). Trying to get some info before I decide to take the trip; there doesn't seem to be a lot of info on these out there. If there's anyone out there rolling with one of these I'd appreciate...

Just installed new Torklift tie downs on my new truck. Directions explicitly said the use of a plastic bed-liner will void the warranty. Corrugations of the liner can act as a spring & the reduced contact area of the corrugations makes campers apt to slide around. Bumblebus, I'd hazard to guess...
