RE: Propane tank
One way allows you to run halfway empty and one way allows you to run all the way empty. I prefer option #1.I think the idea is if you choose to ignore the indicator on the regulator you can just the same choose to ignore or delay the refill until both are empty.

RE: Propane tank
Can you imagine driving a car like that? Ignore the gauge and wait until you are stalled on the side of the road. Then get out, change tanks and drive on. Not for me.

RE: Propane tank
I have 2 tanks and manually switch from one to another when first one runs out. I was just looking to know how much the one that I’m on now has in it. We’re leaving tomorrow for a few days and I hate to get there and one run out as soon as we get there. The web site says that they sell propane but I had just rather not have to fool with it while we’re gone if I don’t have to.Get an automatic regulator that indicates when the primary cylinder is empty. With this system you will always know if you have more than half of total capacity and you are good to go. Or the indicator turns from green to red and you are less than half capacity and ready to fill one of the cylinders.
The other benefit is that you no longer need to get up in the cold to change cylinders at 3am. The switch is automatic and you can refill the empty cylinder after you get some coffee.

RE: Refrigerator draw on LP mode
You may as well get out your meter and measure as to include everything. My trailer idles at 500 milliamps with the fridge propane cycled on.

RE: RVing in the winter
Almost any RV is good to 25F while in use. Keep your propane topped up and let the furnace run.

RE: E rated tire with max psi of 65?
Yes get the tire weight chart to determine the correct pressure.

RE: Am I making a mistake going with a heavier, thicker bumper?
Just repair what you have. If you want to hang stuff off the back do not use the bumper. Get a properly installed class 3 hitch.
And for the sewer hose get a 5" vinyl fence post and mount it under the RV. Many pictures if you do a search.

Yes those wide tires often have lower 65 rating.

RE: Tesla Semi truck unveil & test ride set for Oct 26th !
Looks like the Nikola Badger is dead. Possible GM might supply fuel cells for the Nikola Semi with additional delays. Nikola seems to be an empty shell of a company just trying to splice together suppliers to produce anything.

I find generally a ranger's description of any off pavement adventure has always a bit exaggerated in difficulty.

RE: Tesla Semi truck unveil & test ride set for Oct 26th !
Yes why are the guys from SeekingAlpha not explaining the demise of Tesla due to the failed Semi launch?
Or the robo-taxi? These guys are the experts.
Dang they better be right very soon, Tesla stock prices keep to breaking highest ever records and I need to re-enter the market.Not sure where the short positions on Tesla are anymore but this could be the grandad of short squeeze as Tesla moves into the SP500.

RE: Tesla Semi truck unveil & test ride set for Oct 26th !
As well Ford/Mexico should be cranking out the Mach E by then. I would think that should also put some pressure on the model Y.BTW saw two Mach-E traveling together on Saturday. They were headed I-15 N just out of Baker CA. Seemed to be traveling at relatively low speed. Styling looked a bit plain. Sorry no pics :(

If you were running Type F fluid I would be a bit more concerned. Stay in tow mode to keep the TC locked and just continue on as you have.

RE: Floating vs Storage Voltage Question
US battery says float 13.02 at 80F
Nothing wrong with following the manufacturer's specification.

RE: Floating vs Storage Voltage Question
13.2 works well when combined with the 15 minute boost charge at 14.6v every 20 hours.
Otherwise storage and float are the same thing as far as I am concerned.
Although if the battery has been floating in storage for an extended period I do find that first cycle is a bit weak and seems to restore on the first charge cycle. Might be virtually the same to let them just rest disconnected for storage.
