Yeah, we are trying it out. We'll see. As I reread your response earlier...it sure seemed like you would be prime for a 4x4 Sprinter van (you didn't mention any kids). That setup sure lets you rally around pretty easily! That F350 longbed with the Kenai in it would prob be sweet tho...that...

I have an F250 and getting a camper that's about 1950lbs Wet. I'm not sure which suspension solution is the best to help with the weight. Ideally I'd like my truck suspension to still work well when I don't have the camper on it too. I've heard StabiLoads and Trimben Bumpstops are helpful...

I'm trying to decide on a fridge to buy. Its clear that National Luna makes an incredible fridge that will last a really long time, I'm considering the NL Legacy 72L dual zone. I'm also looking at the Dometic CFX3 75DZ fridge, which seems nice but has a few drawbacks...I'm unsure how big of a...

Hey man, I've actually been inside of the Olympic and spent a bunch of time on the phone with their brand manager Ryan (super cool dude) along with some dealers in Oregon and AZ who have experience with them. We just ordered the Kenai. We have an F250 6.75ft bed Wife and I, plus 2 boys. We do...

@Dometic I didn't get an answer about the power issue I asked about. 1- Are newer CFX3 75DZ models able to be plugged into both AC & DC at the same time or will there just be a sticker saying that you can't do that? 2- Also, am I able to run an extension cord from my garage to the fridge to...

That's a hell of a flatbed build. I like that alot, tho yeah...not small :). The Scout Kenai drops tomorrow and should be interesting. I got inside of their little Olympic one and it was incredible. It easily slept 4 (the roof top tent is so nice, made down in Georgia too) but if you were...

The boat is 16ft long Clackacraft, not fitting inside. I need 4x4 for sure and I can't get a typical trailer into a lot of places and certainly cant tow the boat with it so that or a motorhome arent going to cut it. Towing a camper trailer up/down winter roads in the Cascades mountains sucks...

I saw one in a Scout camper yesterday. It was so well done...perfect spot and they loved it. Super efficient too. I haven't ever used one but it seemed cool. For anyone doing some ski camping, it seems ideal.

Yeah I am able to skip the fridge if need be. Those luna's look really nice. Their new Legacy models have an 8yr warranty on the compressor too. Their dual zone 72 looks sick. Actually finding one could be tricky here in the US but I have some time. Regarding the CFX3, is it comparable to...

Yeah its the CFX3. So no plugging in both sources at once then...it wasn't an issue that was fixed but is basically "just how it is"? Odd that the feature was removed for a fancy new fridge? Why was that? Did it help make it more efficient or something? That being said, part of me wonders...

I'll likely have a 160w solar panel connected a Goal Zero Yeti 1400 but having an additional small panel up top that could keep that small battery/fans going would be sweet and save some cable routing mess. Do you have a recommendation on the battery/solar system? I'm not familiar with this...

Wow, impressive little fan! Do I have to mount them, as in, screw them down or is there another way to put them in place without them blowing away? I'm planning to use 2 or 3 in a small hardshell camper with decent side windows and a attached RTT (with inner access hatch). So I'll likely need...

We are a family of 4 and while my boys are only 8 & 5, they are growing. We need a lot of portability for mountain biking, fishing and overnight ski trips etc across the west and BC. Need something portable that isn't super heavy/massive, fits us for the minimal time we are inside...but would...

If I only have the one 12v outlet, is there a way of wiring 2 or 3 of these fans to run off a single 12v?

@Victorian earlier you mentioned that you would never use an open flame heater such as the Dickinson Newport Marine heater. Are they that dangerous if professionally installed??

Often we camp in warmer weather, around 90-95 at times. We don't have any AC in camper or RTT etc. but will have a Goal Zero 1400. Are there some sweet fans that everyone likes? I'd want a couple that I can just point at us and the kids to keep a breeze blowing at night to help everyone get...

I'm a fridge newbie but looking at a Camper that comes with a DZ75 + Goal Zero 1400+160w Solar Panel roof. Seems like a killer fridge and we are a family of four so I like the size. Dual zone allows me to use the other side as dry storage for quick trips. How big of a deal is it to not just...

That makes sense and seems to be typical across other sites I just checked out as well (thank you!). Perhaps my discrepancy is in the Payload weight. Ford site says its 2900lbs. However the sticker on driverside door area says "Combined Weight of Occupants and Cargo should never exceed...

Yeah, I was thinking that as well, tho I had that "Payload" explained to me by the RV guys. Basically that is the leftover weight you can put in the bed of the truck AFTER its loaded with 4 adults and the max tow load on the hitch (which would be approx 15,000lbs). After that they said that...

I'm hoping some of you can provide some advice to a newbie. So more details on the Kenai sound pretty dang interesting. Difficult choice for us coming up and trying to figure out what'll work best between the Olympic and Kenai. I've got a F250 crewcab with a 6.75ft bed 3/4 ton (sticker...
