I just looked at that camper and it is very nice. Little expensive for my taste but for a traveling family it looks awesome. The specs are similar to what we have posted here. Heavy half ton and up, short/long bed, and only 1331 lbs starting weight! Figure 2-2500 lbs fully loaded with no rally...
I cannot speak for other apps but I have had great success and ease of use with OnX. There is a downside with all apps. For OnX, and I raised the concern with the design team, is that the content view settings do not sync across devices. Ie: Plan/develop on laptop, save…open phone/ipad, and you...
Rented RVs in GA for 2 years. Any questions give me a shout.
Outdoorsy, rvshare, rvngo are all like Airbnb but with a huge catch. Insurance. Keep in mind that if the renter is using personal insurance and not a commercial brand like we used (MBA), in a claim event, they are most assuredly...
To correct your assumption. I didn’t say it was a date “game.” A dart on the wall is a target that you shoot for, or base your calculations off of.
Regardless, a vehicle can handle up to and sometimes more than the gvrw. It’s all about safety for you and those around you. Ask any DOT...
Agree with “go with the flow.” I use OnX and have been happy so far. The last 2 trip routes were planned out and were very accurate when you do the research!
Thanks Jim. My OP was Nov 2024 so I thought it was a dead prospect of getting a reply. In the absence of guidance, I created my own documents based on my use case.
GVWR is a dart on the wall. But whichever way you go. AIRBAGS......I hauled RV's with my F350 for 2 years with a max weight of 16k lbs and a hitch weight of almost 3k lbs and those airbags were awesome....
If you have a 1986-1997 Ford F250 or F350, you most likely a Dana 44 front axle and a Sterling 10.25 rear axle. They are fairly easy to identify by the pinion setup (high/low) and the axle cover.
OP stated that he wanted to swap out for a solid axle yet it already has one.
Here is a guide to...
I keep it simple on the road and at home. A water boiler and my favorite Cafe Bustelo Espresso coffee is amazing. No pod trash, no clean up just coffee!!
First, I don't own it. It was a surprise rental upgrade. Second, this is just my observations of driving it 2100+ miles on a vacation to the TN mountains near Knoxville.
Pros:
* My wife kind of liked it, mainly as she knew we were going on mountain roads and that made her more comfortable on...
Love the K5. Drove many Army CUCV’s. I drive a ‘14 F350 CCSB 6.5’ bed with a utility topper. Personally I would stay with the shorter bed. Think turn radius.
For me, full size overlanding is more fun! I can carry everything I need for repairs, self recovery, life support and still have room...
“I should have known better.” I keep saying that to myself about this purchase. No matter what configuration I used with the input/output hoses, I could not get the temp to drop more than 4*. So I asked for a refund! That is when the comedy of errors really started happening. Email bantering for...
Lookie here!! Rental was upgraded to a Bronco! What a different feel it is driving this verse my F350. Very tight steering. If you are prone to over steering, you could be in trouble. Braking is very touchy and at the top of the pedal. I don’t mind but some might!
This upgrade gave us the room...
My friend from KC area sent this. He said he thought of me… Im gonna have to question him and fix his memory of me….!
Not sure what this guy was thinking. Whole new meaning of drive what you have….
Why do I have to live on the other side of the world???? I mean FL.
This is a bucket list item for me but the timing is bad… I can’t wait to see pics and the video!
