Having positive pressure only matters when you are moving, so I would think you could achieve that pretty easily. The pressure required is pretty low. Something as simple as a computer fan drawing from a filtered intake would do it. It's not totally passive, but extremely low draw. I think...

Yes, you must have air exchange in a camper. Otherwise the oxygen level would plummet, and the humidity would skyrocket. A dehumidifier would help with the moisture, but requires power, so again a trade off. By-products of combustion must still be exhausted. The issue with air exchange is...

Thanks for sharing this. I think there are a number of Aerogel products. Which are you familiar with? I'd like to investigate this further.

With regard to insulation, pay special attention to cold bridging through glass and metal structures, and to how you handle air exchange. The actual R value of the walls is a far smaller contributor to overall thermal efficiency than some might think. A small living space like a camper does...

The tread on my Cooper Maxx 255/85-16's is half gone. The tread wear is nice and even. I drive the Tacoma pretty hard, including cornering. I rotate every 5K, no cross rotation, just straight forward and back. I also keep my camber at zero, which seems to help. I am interested in the new...

One big advantage to doing work like this is familiarity with the machine. If a breakdown occurs in a remoter area, having that familiarity is priceless.

Ok, so here is the security mesh that I have. I have a limited supply, and with the new tarifs, I'm not sure if getting more will be feasible. The mesh is .278" thick, so it is much more substantial than perforated metal. It is very rigid. It looks to me like it is forged into shape. It is...

Jon, I have imported several panels of aluminum security mesh, that is strong, light and attractive. It is used as a security panel on RV doors. I can sell that by the square foot. Unfortunately the pictures are on my computer, and it died. I'll be getting it back in a few days. All of...

Build the 2009. It's a better truck for the purpose, and you know it well. Drive other vehicles to save the miles from building up higher. My 07 is half way home at 170,000.

I appreciate the questions Jon :), Thank you Mog! So, let me take them one by one. The armor option is coming as soon as I can catch my breath and hammer out the details of how and where we might manufacture them. All of the mess with steel and aluminum tariffs have put a new ripple in...

Thank you Darwin. It hurts to be lumped with Dometic :p. Especially by someone well respected! We share no parts, factories, or engineering with Dometic. I'm always open to hear how we might improve our products. So far we have had zero problems with our roof hatches. They have been...

As a follow up to this conversation, we are now authorized distributors for Novus acrylic care products, and we have the best prices you will find. It will be on our website shortly. What I like about Novus is that they have broken the products into 3 specialized formulas that do a better job...

Hi Mike, We sell a ton of windows to van builders, and a slight curvature is no problem. It's just a matter of choosing the right window for the panel that you have. I would suggest that you check out the library section of our website: https://www.ternoverland.com/documents There is a...

Really impressive build quality, and thoughtful construction! The insulated panels look serious. Can you share more about the extrusions you are using? Fiberglass or cold bridge free by design?

If you are looking for a premium quality window or other components, we ship to Canada. Shipping to Canada is never cheap though. We are working on establishing a stocking dealer in Canada to make things easier on our Canadian friends. We maintain an extensive inventory of both products and...

Very true. A slider type window only provides 40% of the ventilation of a comparable size awning style window, and only in perfect weather. You wouldn't need a huge window up there to get a lot of air flow. Something else that few people think about, is that screens block a surprising amount...

You are referring to the roof hatch with the spoiler. That is really better suited for the top of the van. Our windows however, would work in the front, as the sealing is very secure! The rubber seal is a good one, and these windows have multiple draw down latches, not just one. The only...

Thank you. We will be at Overland Expo West, so stop by if you attend. There will be several builders with our products there as well. Nothing beats seeing for yourself.

Funny, we were just talking about this. We will be putting that information on our website soon, and we are working with some manufacturers to get quality cleaning and polishing products for our customers. Probably the biggest NO NO is using window cleaner on acrylic. It can create...

They are not Dometic, nor are they a clone. They are simply the same style. Dometic has plastic frames. Ours are aluminum. Dometic has plastic screen and blind housings. Ours are all aluminum. Ours have better quality blind and screen material, better roller assemblies, finer mesh in the...
