One thing here - 99.9999% of the comparison data available for these tires is from the 335's, not the 365's. For what it's worth.

Exceptional write up, thank you for sharing!

Fair point on insurance. I'd hope to avoid financing a many hundred thousand dollar vehicle purchase myself. My gripe with RVIA is their list of approved equipment is a bit dated. ok back to EarthCruiser talk, sorry for the hijack.

What value do you see in RVIA certification for "overland" builders?

The Korapop 225 is a wonderful adhesive & really nice to work with. In the right applications it's as good as anything else on the market. Unfortunately, regardless of what the data sheet says, and to be fair it does say it is UV stable, it does NOT hold up to UV exposure. After a year or two...

I can see why the newer 10 speed trans would have appeal however I believe the 6 spd is more reliable and will be better for you in the long term. One thing you might look into for your new to you 6.7 is a CP4 disaster prevention kit. This is a must on any engine using the CP4 fuel pump IMHO...

Yes, structural or laminated wood sections makes it cheaper to build but if any moisture makes it into a wall or floor it's just a matter of time before its compromised (or moldy).

Options without wood as a structural or laminated component should be highlighted as a significant delineator of quality when comparing options.

Many differences in panel construction, insulation type, R value and panel engagement topology. All different for reasons they believe in so a deeper dive into the differences is recommended to see which of their respective design features you believe makes the best overall structure. Of course...

What a great layout!

I learned an interesting factoid about the Godzilla 7.3 the other day & an interesting story about the unintended consequences of good intentions. In order to get a clean idle emissions check mark for the 7.3, Ford created a way via a solenoid pressure controller in the oil pressure circuit to...

I've not seen them in action in brutal cold so I can't say for sure but I think it would depend a bit on how you installed the unit. If the exchanger matrix is really close to the wall opening then the warm moist exhaust air will freeze it for sure & this is a common issue with residential HRV...

I use the EGo version. No reason I can see why it can't be rotated +- 45 degrees.
