When I first read the press release, I assumed it would be like many of the AWD systems that live in many modern CUVs. They are FWD 99% of the time and have a clutch system that can send some power (usually less than 50%) to the rear axle when the front slips. They only engage at low speeds...
Thank you for the link! I tried searching for it but didnt have any luck!
At $800 Euro, I will have to save a whole lot of pennies before I am able to buy one!
ITTOG, thank you for the info on how much salt to add.
John, where does one find a eutectic solution for sale? A quick Amazon search didnt come up with anything but I suspect there is a better name to actually find it under. Also, I dont care for the shape of the polar tubes. It seems there...
I have heard heated mattress pads are really nice, but I have not tried one myself. Downside is it takes power (less than a heater though) and finding the right size might be a challenge.

I use a combination of the square water bottles and plastic 1/2 gallon milk jugs, depending on how the food fits in the cooler shape wise.
I have heard adding salt to the water before you freeze them makes the ice colder and last longer, but I am not sure if this is actually true. Anyone have...
Found this one in CL near St Louis MO. It seems like a great price. I would seriously consider it if I could just convince the wife we need it :)

From what I have read about balance beads, they are great at balancing if the balance is caused by the tread, but make the problem worse if the balance comes from the side wall. Apparently semi-truck drivers use gold balls to balance re-tread tires but they often don't work for tall sidewall...

Did not know they were that tight! They do seem fairly narrow considering they are not a wide van and for the lower bunk at least they share the space with a kitchen. Really probably more of a one person van with a pop-top for standing while cooking with the occasional use of carrying extra...
I really like your air system!
I did something similar on my jeep with a few differences. I set mine up to connect to all 4 tires at once (as you are working towards) and I can use my system for airing down as well. My setup is pump -> pressure regulator for 30 PSI (desired air-up pressure)...
