    Michelin X Force ZL's vs Conti MPT 81's

    I have the Goodyears, yes they are also not round, just like the $800k expedition trucks for sale. I had the Pirelie's before and my ears would ring after a few hours of driving due to the extremely high pitched whine. I should have worn my Walkers. Every set of continentals I have seen in...

    MaxxAir Fan problems and solutions

    I agree with you about Dometic 100%. I tried to get parts for a skylight but it was a no go, however hopefully that has changed. I guess my main issue with both the Fantastic fan and Maxx air fan is that those are basically the only 2 options. I don't think they have been significantly upgraded...

    2017 F-550 Camper Build - Ground Up

    What was the thickness of the material you used? I am thinking about doing something similar but on a Ram

    MaxxAir Fan problems and solutions

    If you get it figured out please let me know. I've gone through 4, and all have died. I even tried spraying the circuit board like some have recommended. The first two last 6 months. I then got complete fan replacement x2 and those lasted about the same amount of time. The guy on the phone was...

    Not another Ram 5500 build

    How have the bifacial panels worked out? I've always been curious if they make a difference when mounted on the roof.

    EarthCruiser - to be more attainable than ever before.

    As far as I know, none of those companies you listed offer a product that is similar to Earth Cruiser, the differences are pretty obvious, most notably the shell design, construction and material. I also would take issue with your opinion that this is a bad move for EC. What was working in the...

    Megatron - New turnkey expedition vehicle from Supertramp, Elevation Off Grid (EOG) and Liquid Spring

    I just checked one out and couldn't help myself since I have the same tires. Yep, their tires aren't round either.

    Fiberglass cloth on plywood: order of operations

    I thought about doing this with an Alaskan camper since they are wood framed and I despise its use in a camper unless its had at least penetrating epoxy, which nobody does. Glassed over would be even better, but it would have to be done at their shop before the skins were applied and they...

    2006 Ford F550 - Globe Trekker Composite Cabover Build

    Now that you have had it a while. What is your impression of the camper, but also the subframe? It seems like there a lot of different methods and philosophies when it comes to a torsion free subframe.

    Now that you have had the supertramp for a while, are you able to comment on the pros and cons of the alaskan camper vs your new set up?

    Earthroamer LTi: The good, Bad & Ugly ( 1HR VIDEO)

    There is no way a "kingstar" will end up cheaper than purchasing a box for 40K and building that out. Unless when you say build you mean Kingstar will build to your preferences within reason.
