    Dodge Ram 5500 motorhome

    MK216v, here is another photo of the kick. The camper is 8' wide so about 1' would be taken up by a removable cabinet on the driver's side then the "fishing pole" storage across the front lower corner. We will see how things go and whether we have any need for these two cabinets.

    S2DM, I cannot wait to see it with the new tires. It will change the look for sure. Hobietim, yes we will have to watch for you on the road and meeting up some time would be great. Shortbus, sorry but I don't have any info on the gasket. ITB does probably 25-50 builds a year using them but I...

    Annie standing beside the spare tire and lift and the rear swinging storage box for scale. The tire is 41" tall. The roof of the camper so far. Still some components to be installed up here. Kitchen area from the walk thru looking back. Cabinets, the end of the sofa and the front...

    DEF and fuel fills, this compartment is home to all of the "shore" hookups. Goodyear tire sitting in it home on the back of the camper. Still lots to be done on the shore hookup compartment. The "gasket" between the cab and the camper is now in place. Bottom right in this photo will be the...

    Let me just say Annie and I are sure glad we started this project when we did! Had a great visit to ITB on Friday and are pleased with the progress being made. It looks like we are about three weeks away from ITB being done their portion of the build. Here are a few progress pics. Any...

    Thanks David! We are about a month away from driving it so we are getting very anxious now. We will definitely be in Denver at some point in the next year and would love to show you around the Cruiser. A quick update is that all of the doors, drawers, exterior parts and panels are now painted...

    Just received a reply from ITB. Seems they have it handled. "We will run a 3/4" copper line under the grey water tank, this will be foamed over with a minimum of 4" of insulation. This way when the Oasis is running (winter time) you will have 120°F boiler fluid running under the tank. This...

    Java, I may do the diverter under the sink either way. I reached out to ITB about it but haven't heard back. It's not like that isn't something I can change myself after delivery. Adam, the fresh water tank is under the bed and it has a dedicated heat loop so no fear there. They grey tank is...

    Chromis, I am thinking more along the lines of protecting from freezing while we are using the camper. Our camper should be finished at ITB at the end of January so we will get to do some cold weather testing in the driveway before heading away. Our shower drains into the grey tank. The...

    Dodge Ram 5500 motorhome

    My fear is that the tank pad heater wont be able to keep the tank from freezing in -25 weather. I haven't used a holding tank in a camper in the winter so not exactly sure how effective the pad tank heaters are and how effective putting antifreeze into the holding tank is. We are located in...

    Dodge Ram 5500 motorhome

    A quick question for anyone that has experience or ideas. Our camper will have a heated grey/gray water tank (by an attached heating pad) but when in real cold areas I am thinking of an alternative solution while still being able to use the kitchen sink. Obviously we could just put a dish pan...

    Nice rig. As someone else has said before, the best rig is the one you use! Your latest rig looks very nice and it sounds like a prefect platform for what you want to do. Thanks for sharing it with us. Ward

    Kootenay, thanks for the reply. This past summer, when Annie and I went down to NWOR, we did most of the route you mention except we turned down through Nelway, BC to Tiger to Colville to Kettle Falls, Republic and Tonasket. We will try to do the Rossland portion of the trip next time. We hit...
