    Two Burner Griddles

    I have the same one Sweeny, Postman and Seth B recommended and here is how I store it. Up against the backside of the left hand compartment - one edge is secured by an aluminum U channel and the other is a 1/4 x 20 screw knob into a threaded insert (in the plywood).

    Camper Vans

    More reasons... I have no desire to cook inside a small cramped space while camping... when you can have the gourmet kitchen of the CI and be outside - you know "camping'. I have joked with Cary in the past about doing a CI with a simple inside toilet - and maybe a bit of sitting space - he...

    LEDs for Interior/Galley Lights?

    I might have trimmed the leads a bit too - I just don't remember - but they work fine.

    LEDs for Interior/Galley Lights?

    Those are dimmable - I have had them for a couple of years. You have to bend the mounting fixture slightly because when you have two dimmable bulbs,they are longer and you need to slightly change the orientation of one of the mounts. Its been awhile and I don't remember how much - I can send a...

    Tongue Mounted Bike Rack?

    After a long drive on a rough gravel road in Nevada Mtns - I had my Kuat bike rack fail - the outer front tire arm (2 bikes) failed where it is connected to the bottom rack. This was most likely due to the amount of bouncing that was going on at the back of the CI. Well it turns out that most...

    Not so Fantastic Fan experience

    Couple of thoughts here. 1) Do you want to be camping (cooking/eating outside) or Motor homing (bringing the equivalent of your house to a spot in the outdoors so you don't have to be outdoors). 2) if you divide the number of nights you have been in your rig, by the number of dollars you have...

    CI sighting on the WA coast

    Awesome - you will love it. Make sure you allocate enough time, it's farther than you think to get around the park. Spend some time on the coast there are parking lots with trails to the beach. An added benefit is to watch for big tide swings so you can hit the beach with a big low tide...

    CI sighting on the WA coast

    Well - the best I can tell as they are obviously Old Growth Fir, Spruce and Hemlock is that because the Queets river flows through the National Park as the river eats away at the river banks along with mud slides - these trees work their way down the Queets out into the Pacific and there where...

    CI sighting on the WA coast

    Saw a CI Camper at South Beach Campground in Olympic National Park on Thursday. It had a WA plate. Spent a few days out there - it is such a remote spot. 4 hours from Seattle. Check out the size of the driftwood on the beach (notice the people) - miles of nothing but sand, rocks and...

    You need a liquor cabinet, don’t you?

    Nicely done! Love the lighting. Frank Poole would have loved this. Search the forums for "Margaritas" and I'm sure you'll find pictures of him and his mixer. My wife and I grew up in Rochester - home of the Nick Tahoe's "garbage plate" and Zweigles "white hots". Still order them online...

    RMBL-INN second 100 nights

    RMBL- INN – Second Hundred Nights. One of our goals after I retired was to visit all the National Parks – so a big piece of the second one hundred nights was our various excursions to knock off some of the parks. There were three of four trips that we took RMBL-INN with us and then one East...

    Hello!! from #1140.

    I know this is a bit late as you will have already done the trip to the Keweenaw Pennisula... but for others who might be heading out there. We camped at Wilkinson State Park just outside of Cooper Harbor and the ranger there let us leave our TD in the Park Equipment Lot while we took the ferry...

    Traveling in rain-Water inside cabin

    I have 550 #524 and Cary and I worked through the airplane wing scenario several years ago. I removed the mattress from the TD and drove in a heavy rain (I live in Seattle) at 75 mph (towing with a Subaru Outback). The plywood floor was covered in small water puddles. I then put a piece of...

    Vintage Cast Iron Stovetop Refurb Dual Fuel

    Steve, Awesome restoration! I have a bunch of Griswald skillets in the kitchen - they are seasoned and our primary cooking pans. If you can find the miniature versions of the pans that were used by the salesman or especially a complete store display with all the miniatures - you will have hit...
