Re: Lithium Battery Winterization
I cannot imagine the amount of work that would be required to remove the 4 Battleborn batteries from a 400 with a Multiplus, and then have to re install them.
Snow-Bird Prep = = = Ramblings
Well next week I depart for another Snow-Bird Adventure.
This time my departure is a couple of weeks later, as last year the longgg winter caused some travel condition stress. And while "this winter" for the western states has normal temperatures and below normal precipitation forecast I decided on a later start 'just to be safe'. This adventure (as planned) will have 30% of the time boondocking.
Hopefully, next week won't bring a surprise storm front on the I-5 corridor as I head south. The adventure is planned for 5-weeks. Not my longest but far nicer than the C-19 Years of two week more local travel.
Anyway, today I started stocking the can/dry goods.
Think I have the Soup Meals under control.
Also have a few emergency basic chicken soup & crackers backups.
But am concerned about the liquor supply . . . may need another Total Wine & More visit

Re: Refusal for T@B 400 to stay at RV Resort Sea Perch RV Yachats, Oregon
"All vehicles must be year 2005 or newer, no less than 18 feet in length and in good condition at the time of check-in. We do not host: Truck Campers, Tear Drop, Pop-up Tent Trailers, Travel Trailers with Canvas Pop-Outs, Casitas, Vans, Busses, Conversion Vans or restored RV's." Quite elitist 
You couldn't pay me enough to stay in a place like this. Have you looked at the satellite views of the "resort"? I take a forest service or BLM campground any day, thank you very much.

I'm sure it's just me getting old and lazy, but I got tired of bending over or getting on one knee to locate the stabilizer jacks and where I needed to place the jack wrench. So I got a fat sharpie and made a mark on the bottom of the keder rail so I now know exactly where they all are. This also reminds me to keep that area clear and not put a cooler, shoe box or something like that in front of the jack location.
Re: Canada Border Crossing 2023 (Updated Aug 2025)
As a Canadian who used to travel (professionally) to the US about 15 times a year with no hassle at all, I despair. The process of entering the US now is so fraught, many of us are simply going elsewhere or staying within our own country.
A real shame. We are neighbours and have gotten along as such for over 200 years.

Re: Install of 12 volt fridge in 2014 TAB 320-S Basic
Here's what the final install looks like. I cut out the cabinet door as the trim
Some thoughts on driving....
So, we are 1100 miles into a 6-week 2500 mile trip. FL to northern VA so far. When we started, I decided to commit to drive only 60mph on the highway. Here's what happened....
* Trailer tire temps (TPMS) are lower
* GMC Canyon tow vehicle gets 17-19 mpg instead of 14-15
* Transmission temps down 5 degrees
* ......and OMG 🤯 what an EASY drive! Sitting in the far right lane, just relaxing! No white knuckle passing, weaving in and out, etc. It was very liberating. So far, in 1100 miles, I have passed TWO cars and slowed down 3 times for on-ramp vehicles.
This adds approximately 10min per hour travel time, but is well worth it -- for me....
