Better than the toaster while holds the bread at an angle over the burner. Just got mine and tried it out on our gas stove. Works nicely

We have a 1995 Northstar (Texson) TS 1000. Since I got some insurance money for dents in the roof from hail, I decided to look at a 2002 model for sale locally. Couple of things surprised me. It had a north/south bed as opposed to an east/west bed. This added 18"+ inches to the overhang...
Spent about an hour at the locksmith yesterday while he searched for the correct key blank for my 99 Fuso FG. He ended up using a blank from a Dodge Colt which worked fine although the overall key length is shorter than the one which came with my truck. This is no surprise since the Colts...
Our truck is currently being used by Australian friends with whom we have done a camper swap. They managed to lock both sets of keys in the cab. Anyone have directions on how to use a Slim Jim on those door locks? They've called road service but I thought if anyone has experience opening those...
They look a lot like Edgestar/Whynter brand frig's. The dual zone is 2" shorter than the Whynter and in my application this would be beneficial.

One vinyl window on our Northstar TS1000 had ripped away from the stitching at the corner. It's a general problem on our camper since I think the vinyl was sewn just a little too short on the corners on most windows. So I ordered a yard of 12 gauge tinted vinyl from Ebay and went to work. In...

It showed up on my Facebook feed. First I've ever heard of a Saviem TP3. Looks interesting and the price is reasonable if you could bear the thought of owning a Renault. I almost bought a Renault Dauphine when I was a teenager and have since...
I assume it's known on this forum but in case it's not I decided to post. I was in La Junta over the weekend on a trip to see the dinosaur tracks in Purgatoire Canyon and stopped by Terry Lee Enterprises. Darrin Fink's Unimog camper is in their yard and for sale. I was told $55k. Lots of...
Someone mentioned on here that OE Fuso filters flow better than aftermarket. Since I have a vacuum gauge/filter minder on my air intake and had a new aftermarket filter installed I decided to experiment. Got a new OE Fuso filter and took pictures of the gauge with the aftermarket and Fuso...
Anyone tried adapting one of these shelves to an FG?

Here's one in a Ford truck:

I know I asked this question before and didn't get a clear answer but I'm asking again since I ran across this article from 1998 about the importation of the FG to the USA and if you add up the ratings on front and rear axles, the total amount is over 14k lbs. Why were the earlier models rated...
On a trip. Got off the interstate and pulled away from a stop sign and couldn't get it out of second. Shifter wouldn't pull back. Pulled into a parking lot and then it went into neutral . Drove smile or so and everything seemed fine. But when I started running through the gears again in a...
After spending the last few days taking apart and repairing my Northstar TS1000 roof, I have a new attitude towards roofs. My roof was thoroughly dinged in a hailstorm so the insurance company paid out for a replacement. Around $4200 including shipping and installation. While I'm not sure...
The front 'side' of the my roof has some serious delamination and rot. The other three sides seem pretty solid. How easy is it to remove that front piece and splice in a new one? It has to be easier than the back since there's no lift mechanism attached to it. I've considered just bolting...
