    Loaded Question... I mainly went with LifeBlue for their dimensions, the fact they made 1 large 300ah battery, instead of needing 3 separate ones, and the fact they make the cold weather one with that can safely charge below freezing, as of last year, Battle Born didnt offer one that charged...

    Did you finance your truck camper purchase?

    Yes. Oddly, FWC rarely lose any value whatsoever. I got every penny I paid for mine back when I sold it. some are even selling for more than new because of the wait times

    Im definitely not expert with this stuff, just learning as I go and using the best stuff possible. Compression fittings might be better, if they don’t have to move. I prefer everything has some sort of ability to flex and move around. I use the “An ounce of prevention saves a point of...

    Holy Hell you got a lot of stuff going on there.. Wowzers! I use the Norgen 3/8 push connectors from Wits End and upgraded everything to the 3/8" hose from an industrial truck supply place. Its the exact same hose use on big rigs and school buses and such. Joey that runs Wits Ends is a long...

    Thanks. Yeah, i look at a nice solid rear bumper as basically mandatory really. Thats a slick design, but also the weirdest hitch setup i've ever seen in my life! Woh Make sure its "Certified" too, or i will report it to Admin

    Thanks. I’m kinda confused and dumbfounded on how and why this isn’t a common thing really ? Dust/dirt in the combustion chamber of anything is bad.

    Small but important update. I often see people having to disassemble, clean, and reassemble their diesel heaters. I know something like this will always require some sort of maintenance, but the one thing i always thought would cut down on this is an air filter of some sort for the intake side...

    2019 Ford F350 4x4 Chassis Cab, SRW, 6.2L V8, 4.30/locked, No Miles; Perfect RoundTheWorld Overlander--SOLD!!

    On my Tundra, i built the bumper/tire carrier to protect/protrude a few inches off the rear of the camper. On the ram, i designed it to protrude a lot more (its about 9") since i will have a 7" deep box on the rear, so still the rearmost thing on my setup will be a huge steel bumper to protect...

    Another Chassis Conundrum????

    Other than Instagram, Social Media, and “Overland Nerd” oohs and ahhs, there actually isn’t any.. ??‍♂️ The handful of them I do follow on social media area often complaining on the time delays/prices getting parts if something fails.. ummm.. duh.. Some folks just crave “be different” at all...

    I’m generally VERY against the waste created by the “pods” but we use the refillable one at work and just add our own ground coffee and it works amazingly well This is the one I went with: https://amzn.to/3fa2yK2

    This is the regular slim. I didn’t go with the mini because of the single serving water container. I might just move this one if needed. Adding water everytime I want coffee is a deal breaker ?
