If its just you and one other person? Truck camper works great. Make the current rig work. If its growing family? Yeah I went down that rabbit hole a few yrs ago. Several elder neighbors have really nice truck/camper rigs. They all were really awesome letting us do basic tests to see if it would...

All propane devices can run on a 1lb can. If your worried about cans you can get refillable 1lb cans.

I spent 23hrs traveling in a Tahoe with a leaky air suspension. By the time we got home I vowed never ever to have air suspension. Id rather find a specialty shop and pay for custom springs or leafs than suffer the constant drone of the air compressor.

I belong to one of the biggest Yacht Clubs in CA. We have 430 club slips and several 1000 members. I can only think of one boat that was a 1mill build that’s actually owned by a individual. Your friends are either Russian or feeding you a good sea shanty.

Crazy I just watched that too. Popped up in my feed. So the bowl has a bag liner that gets pulled into the combustion chamber thus clean bowl. I was curious how the bowl stays clean? The bag lines the bowl? Yeah $4500 to buy the throne doesn’t include any of the hardware needed to setup. Ie...

Yep blow up a expensive rig to get Youtube clicks. Make it a survival drama and you might make enough clams to cover your stupidity cost.

Watching Ember closely So far 2021 trailers used wrong floor bonding glue for the composite deck which cause the flooring to turn ugly, big $ fix. All the slides were the cheap failure prone geared system which has been an epic fail. They also could not source the double pane euro windows for a...

Yes Thats definitely something to consider. Talking to some of the Rpod owners in some cases they found the axle it came with was under specced for the trailer rating which in those cases they we’re pretty sure that sped up the failure, and going to a beefier axle vs their packed weight probably...

I think these discussions are important in forum’s like this. These social forums are pretty influential in people’s decision making. Even the some of the long timers here I disagree with. It would really bother me if I met one of you in the future and find out your struggling maybe even...

You can camp with a $100 tent and not delay enjoying life. My comment was regarding the discussion of $200,000 RVs. Even those of us with 200k cash very few of us ever spend it on a depreciating asset. That is actually probably a very important distinction between people who can afford such...

Are you financing your 40k a yr travel on credit cards? If you are your in the same spot as the 15yr RV loan person. Which case economics catches up with you eventually. Then we move you to the homeless problems thread and we discuss all the various impacts being seen and experienced by those of...

The rpods run Torsion axles and its pretty common to come across owners who replaced the originals with new torsion axles with higher load ratings. I have even come across owners who ditched the torsion axles after way to many failures and had a shop put leaf axle setup on their trailer. I...

220k is a big portion of a asset that grows in value ie land purchase, cabin etc 200k on a depreciating asset with Luxury tax is insane unless your paying cash and have all your other life aspects fully funded. Which case only about 1% of the population is in that situation

If anything I like seeing the effort in Indiana to start focusing on modern materials like duel pane windows and non wood materials. The big struggle is the labor force and “this is how we have done it for x yrs” vs ok we need to clean up our sloppy work, have electricians actually on staff to...

Yep. The RV industry needs a huge reality check. If you can’t build it to function after traveling on its own axles and getting parked on uneven ground “don’t build it!”. Sure you can sell just about anything to people when money costs nothing. But those people don’t forget long planned...

Yeah the slide craze is pretty entertaining. Last couple of state park trips there was at least one RV with a jammed slide. Talk about SOL… I bet all those people ditched the slide RV.

I’ve seen tear drops with 500lb tongues add a steering wheel holder that does high speed whoops and pop goes the frame.

Are they walkable roofs yet?

The OMG the grid is going to burn down types. Never as in never know their power usage vs what a EV uses on a typical EV use day. To add to that many of those same critics are what are called super commuters and drive well over 30 miles a day. I’m not talking about the farmer running field...
