RE: Host Everest Deadbolt Issue
Our 1200 was like that also. But adjusted the striker plate. Now the door shuts flush. Deadbolt works as it should.

RE: We knew it was coming...
All that I can say, sold some property. $3000.00 per month and if the couple can't finish the loan. I get it back, and will be happy about it. Tried to talk them out of buying the land. But both wanted it, offered the 3K per month payment. Plus I'm charging 6.5% on the loan.
The same couple wants to buy our 2012 Keylargo 5th wheel. At way more than it's worth. Not sure why they want both. As the land is to just build a shop on for their Semi trucks. Being its out of the flood waters. Both make great $$, but if they're out of work 2 weeks. Everything is gone for both. But live like its never going to end.
So there like most, think this wild ride will never stop. But stop it will and soon. But I'm just a dumb country boy. So I know nothing. LOL

RE: Generator exhaust bracket.
18 wheeler tire treads are good to isolate vibration. I generally have one available for projects and they are free.
I have also used old conveyor belting. But was not worth the time and effort. Being the part was less than $5. at the parts place.

Generator exhaust bracket.
Our 2016 Eagle Cap 1200. Had a banging sound when running the Generator. Found the rubber isolator exhaust bracket had broken. Looking online the replacement was $65. Being I will not pay that for a cheap part. Found a replacement for only $4.97
Used this mount.

Used the factory screws and top mounting holes. Worked perfect to mount this one back into its spot.
Then I loosened the clamp on the pipe itself. Twisted the rubber and bottom mount. Slid it up under the pipe clamp. Tightened that clamp back down. Job was done in under 5 minutes.

RE: Truck camper title?
I do know in the state of Tn. If you borrow $$ to buy the Truck camper. You can take the MCO in and get a Tag and Title. We bought a new camper in 2006. Being we paid cash for it. Did not get a title in Tn, as we bought it in Denver.
Buddy of mine bought a new Lance same month in Ky. But financed his, he got a title and tag. Along with paying all that sales tax to Tn.
When I sold our 2006 TC in 2012. It went to a guy in VA, I gave him the original MCO and a Bill of sale.
We bought our Eagle Cap in Fl end of 21. Only got a Bill of sale with it. Being Fl was also a state that shows a TC as Cargo.

RE: Auxiliary fuel tank in front of the slide in camper
If you do this, would be a good bet. Find and get fuel spill insurance. If you were to get into a rearend. That hit the tank, then leaks out fuel. Your going to be glad to know that $$$$$$ is not coming out of your pocket for the cleanup.
Not sure how it works for normal pickups. But know if you have a extra tank. If it leaks your for sure going to pay for the cleanup.

RE: Trip Report: New Mexico Atomic History
Looking forward to making a trip to Ground o also. And if its only open Oct Second and Third. Guess that makes the time to be there easy.
As for Los Alamos. Enjoyed our few days there back in 2006. Nephew was working at the lab. Got to use his as our tour Guide around town. Plus up on the Mountain so it was perfect.
Los Alamos has a great Museum's got to see all 3. Brother in Law lived in Los Alamos 20+ years. I always kidded him, go to work, come in for lunch. Clean as he left the house.

RE: Fast Gun info?
Thanks guys! I'm going to run both sets for a few weeks each. Then see what I like the best.
As for removing to fuel, the new Ram. Thats not an issue, Dually fender has fuel cap more towards the middle. Glad of that and nice to fuel up that 50 gallon tank. Without having to remove the fast gun.
I also picked up a set of the fastgun locks. Guy sold them to me for $30. Looked new, he told me the price. So I was nice and bought those.

Fast Gun info?
Picked up a used set of Fast Guns last summer. So had those when we found our new to use camper. There the Vintage style.
https://i.imgur.com/SPxE9gG.jpeg
But the Eagle cap came with the new style Fast Guns. Looks to be almost new. The dark colored ones.
https://www.torklift.com/images/gallery/originalfastguns/2.%20Available%20for%20frame-mounted%20or%20bed-mounted%20tie%20downs.jpg
So wondering if the old style would be better then the new style? Being I have both, sure can test them both out.
But not sure on the ones to keep.
I know lucky to have a set, then find myself with 2 sets.
