The Christmas markets definitely were not "devil markets"...LOL. We attended close to 20 markets in the countries I mentioned. Most were different from one another, but after awhile I have to admit I was in Christmas market overload. The smaller towns and the classics were the best ones...

No they are not. We were waiting for the "new" versions of the MPT 81's, when we needed new tires. The want came up before the "need". I know of someone testing the new version. Harder compound, higher load rating and rumors of a slightly increased speed rating 72 MPH. We made the choice...

Snowball is getting some new shoes! More on that story later! When we originally built our rig the Michelins were almost impossible for an individual builder to source due to a military contract. These were VERY hard to get but my commercial tire guy came through. I set the truck up for 41"...

Well I know it has been awhile! Trying to keep this a build thread with a little travel element thrown in here and there, because that is why we built it! Came home from Newfoundland and flew off to Germany, Austria, Switzerland and the Czech Republic for the Christmas markets. A month well...

WOW! What a difference! The rig looks awesome and can not wait to see it in person. WELL DONE SIR!

The journey continues. Newfoundland! All I can say is beautiful, and the roads....well a bit rough but drive the middle like AK! Trinity Lighthouse overlooking Trinity Newfoundland. CHEERS!!

RAM does have the alternators wired so they can not be separated, aka one for the engine and one for the habitat unless you do some computer work. It gets messy according to the techs I talked with. They work together. Dual 220 amp alternators on my rig. Dual Victron DC-DC 50 AMP wired one...

Mini me! LOL. The cool things you see while traveling. A couple from Switzerland was just wrapping up a 6 month tour of the US, Canada. They ship out tomorrow from Halifax home. We toured each others rigs and had wonderful morning coffee conversation. Based on a diesel Ford Ranger...

Went south to get north….LOL. Attended a friends sons wedding in FL. We went from GA to FL and then we are headed to Nova Scotia and Newfoundland. The family owns a shop doing aluminum fab, gates and fencing. He insisted on getting a project knocked out while we were visiting.….WELL...

Thank you for the kind words! YES it was a lot of work to build and taking the time to document the build, for myself and others, seemed to make sense. A resource I can use later or share down the road. GLAD it has or will help others. I know FOR SURE other documented builds helped us out a...

30K...you did pretty well! I use Atlanta Commercial Tire in Forest Park area. Justin should be able to get you a set. 678-577-1997 BAD NEWS...last time I had a tire mounted they did not treat my rim nicely and they broke a TPMS. They paid for a new TPMS but might be looking for another...

A 30 plus year RV'er here. I have had cassette. regular, porcelain high $$, .36 diesel pusher home type. Never again a black tank! Switched to composting, easy and 45 plus days on solids. Looks like miracle grow! 3 or 4 days on urine bottle, SIMPLE. A computer fan and ZERO oder. I would...

THANK YOU kind Sir for the kind words. YES it was a lot of planning and a LOT of work, but we have what we planned and wanted. Your timing is perfect! We depart the Atlanta GA area headed for Nova Scotia and Newfoundland in 3 1/2 weeks. We will spend 2+ months on the road and chase the...

Thank you Sir! CHEERS!

Yes, that is the setup we use on the road. REALLY simple and works great. I can pull the tire up easily and lock it in place. CHEERS!
