    Favorite Budget Not-from-ci-accessory

    I bought one of these portable air pumps last year. It's amazing how easy they are to use. I top off the car as needed at home. I top off the 560 before every trip without leaving the garage. I use it regularly to top off my bicycle tires. No more hand pump with gauges I can't read! It can...

    Toyota RAV4 Prime (plug-in hybrid)

    I had never towed anything before buying my 560. It was an experience and an adjustment to deal with everything involved in towing and camping with a trailer rather than a tent. As time has moved on I've gotten more comfortable and much less paranoid about things. I've also found that my...

    Toyota RAV4 Prime (plug-in hybrid)

    That thought has crossed my mind. I always leave it plugged in on overnights while traveling to a destination and have not had any issues. I will say, I'm not a boondocker who parks in remote places. Most of my overnights are at a Love's or sometimes an actual campground. I'm also pretty sure...

    New 560 on the way…#1147 coming early May!

    Especially when it isn't a race but they time you....and you just HAVE to beat your previous best time. ;-)

    New 560 on the way…#1147 coming early May!

    I've done some out of town bike rides in what I call cold weather. Not fun at all. I've also done some century rides with just under 10,000 ft of climb. Still hurts me to think about those rides. LoL!

    Toyota RAV4 Prime (plug-in hybrid)

    Well, it works pretty good. Only downside is you do have to plug it in and take it out for every trip.

    New 560 on the way…#1147 coming early May!

    Where's the fun in being that organized? Some day I'll tell you about my trip to the Grand Canyon where I got there with no ID or credit cards (or my senior pass) only about $200 cash. It was winter and I wasn't camping but had a hotel booked. Oh, and I got a flat tire while I was there. Good...

    New Water Heater Option for Camp-Inn

    You know, you would think that but I'm not so sure. I've run some very informal tests on the 23qt at home overnight and I'm not so sure there's much if any noticeable difference in the amount of draw it uses vs my Dometic. Now FWIW, the Dometic "seems" to be a heavier/thicker wall of insulation...

    Toyota RAV4 Prime (plug-in hybrid)

    I'm already using the Curt Echo. I'm happy with it. @Chuckwagon wanted to know about the Rav Prime and options.

    Toyota RAV4 Prime (plug-in hybrid)

    I'm towing with a Rav4 hybrid which is rated for 1700 lbs. Going uphill is definitely noticeable but for my trips and where I live and drive I don't find it problematic. You would obviously have more power but it would certainly depend on where and how often you tow uphill. If you routinely tow...

    New Water Heater Option for Camp-Inn

    Thanks Cary. Back seat? What's that? LoL! I have the seats folded down to carry everything else in the back. It would also be a bit more problematic for me to run the fridge 24/7 in the car when traveling a few days to get to my destination or even after arriving. Having said that, I also...

    Sweeney, you're not a real camper if you can't even go one day without a shower. LoL!

    New Water Heater Option for Camp-Inn

    I bought a BougeRV 23 qt fridge during the Black Friday holiday season last year. While my Dometic still works I hate how heavy it is and I tend to always just leave it in the galley all the time due to the inconvenience of moving it. (Getting old sucks.) I haven’t figured out the best way to...

    New 560 on the way…#1147 coming early May!

    Congrats on the new order! I’ll say this about the parking break. I hated paying for it. But I’ve had a couple of instances when trying to manually position the trailer in my “space” that I didn’t realize I wasn’t on flat ground. The trailer started getting away from me until I grabbed the...

    Cleaning

    You're putting way too much work into it. Since picking it up in the summer of '21 and without even trying I've got an ugly scratch on the side with no idea how, I've got buff marks from a grocery bag stuck on the door handle going down the freeway, I've got small pit marks from rocks even with...
