    Expo Trailer or RTT? Advice requested

    I think the trailer is the way to go. We do it with our 1640 Rockwood pop up. Makes it easy and relaxing. However, if you ever get an itch to sell your camper... shoot me a PM :drool: Nice rig.

    Fridge size?

    After speaking to Dave at Equipt today, I went ahead and purchased an Indel B 50Qt. Ships out on Monday. I will report. John

    Fridge size?

    Yep, price is the only thing holding me back from the ARB 50 at the moment. I do not mind buying quality and paying for it, but want to make sure I am getting the best value.... well, that and Ann might have me sleeping in the ARB fridge when she learns how much they cost :coffeedrink...

    Fridge size?

    Thanks guys. Appreciate the input. For those of you who have not mentioned it, why did you choose the particular fridge you bought?

    Fridge size?

    Wife and I are debating fridge vs. high end cooler. Part of that discussion comes down to size, or rather capacity. We currently operate out of a Coleman Extreme 50 quart cooler adn it has enough room for us. I usually supplement with a small cooler for beer as well, which I think we will...

    Thanks Scott. Latest word from the boss is that she and Joe are coming to the Mid Atlantic. We are going to try and stretch it out over the next week and do some camping as we work our way south. John

    Added a heavy duty switch to the 12v wire that attaches to the battery of my tow vehicle. This allows me to turn off power to the trailer plug when we are not using it. The plug has an indicator light on it and I do not want to drain the battery down by having it on all the time. The switch...

    Today I completed the rewiring of the electrical. Sounds like more than it is. The trailer previously had a battery that was charged through the tow vehicle. The wiring on the trailer side was still there. The PO had converted it to a 4 pin harness, so first step was to get a 7 pin...

    Wow - awesome job. Beautiful Jeep! Have to say I am glad to learn I am not the only one who forgets to do simple things like fluids. :) Easy to get all cranked up when you have put so much work into a project and it is "ready to go".

    Picked up a smittybilt trail shade. I know there are awnings that are a ton better out there, but this was cheap...ummm... less expensive and can be moved from vehicle to vehicle as needed. Works out nice, that way. A few pics for you, followed by Joe and his newly rigged up "winch"

    New tires and wiring package arrived today. Love the UPS and Fed Ex guys... they refuse to come down my road... can't blame them... but somehow the guy managed to leave the box in the weeds on top of a fireant hill... On purpose?... hmmmm.... Anyhow, tires and wheels fit like a dream. Tires...

    Yep, that's it Neil. Reality is that it will get pulled on fire roads and across the random field at different events, and at the beach from time to time... so this serves well, keeps Ann happy and gives us a superior comfy basecamp. Roughest thing it is likely to see is our own road to the...

    I have some rewiring to do. The camper came with the inverter all hooked up, but the 7 way cut off and the battery gone. I have two wires available at the tongue. A white one and a black one. Once my 7 pin gets here I may need some help connecting it all. Can anyone recommend a good battery...

    Nice work on that jack. Sometimes it is the simple mods like this that make the experience so much better right? Trailer looks great.

    Thanks Greg. I think at a different time in life I might go ahead and build the TC3 Bantam I have. Until then though it will be pop up and I have to say, I am at least happy to have the decision behind me. I think this serves our needs and is an excellent base camp set up for our...
