RE: What did you do to your Camper Today?
If it has a standard 3.5mm audio out jack buy a small, external speaker and a cable. You'll be much happier with the sound. Anker makes a decent, rechargable little speaker.

RE: loosing old members
I'd like to see this site switch to the vBulletin platform. It's far more user friendly and is the standard for most forums. And the excuse that Lemonis can't afford it is BS. NONE of the heavy-trafficked car/truck/boat forums use this antiqued style...and I frequent more than a few discussion forums. Only one uses this, circa 2000 platform.

RE: New license plate for my TC.
Being in CA, my plate stays on the truck. Move it. Leave it. Whatever. I don't think it's the huge issue people make it out to be. Never been stopped for it.
However, the front plates on all three of my vehicles have been smashed in by inconsiderate hit-n-run a holes, so I've simply removed them. I've been stopped at least once in all three over the years, and in every case, it's never an issue or even brought up. I certainly don't lose sleep over it. If I get hassled about it, I'll deal with it then.
In the mean time, I'm not spending money on new plates and new plate brackets only to have them wrecked again.

RE: new topic
Exactly. It would be nice to know what the fix was.
Nah, that would be too easy. It's Vaudeville style around here. Just enough entertainment to keep em coming back

RE: Do pass-through windows leak?
Mine leaks somewhat in driving rain, but that doesn't happen often. Usually put a towel down.
The PDI tech warned me it might leak. He said they generally install a solid pane, one-piece glass if its really bad.

RE: How fast do you drive with camper on? .
There's the flip side where often I'm on some two lane hwy with a 55 or 65 limit, but the three or four cars behind me want to go 85-90. These people are willing to make an extremely dangerous move just to get past me, putting everyone at risk.
Me driving the speed limit or at a safe speed for the conditions at worst might make some people frustrated. Passing wrecklessly, playing chicken with oncoming traffic is the ultimate inconsiderate move.

My speedometer goes to 120. I try to keep it under that.

RE: 18" tire question - ANOTHER UPDATE
Pretty safe. And then some. EVERYTHING is literally riding on the wheels.

RE: 18" tire question - ANOTHER UPDATE
Yes. Mine are factory Ford wheels.
Been a while since I've looked but there is a stamp. It's rather small and kinda ambiguous, but it's stamped on all five wheels (the spare is the same)
You made a good choice going with 18"HD wheels. There are many more tire choices in that diameter. You'll be happy with the Toyos and those wheels.

RE: 18" tire question - ANOTHER UPDATE
Look to be factory forged wheels. Probably 3500-3800 lbs. Look closer. You might find a max. weight rating. I know my 18s are stamped 3500 lbs.
