RE: Piics of my new Northstar Arrow

The TC/cab clearance looks tight? Might want to lift that up a bit?
there is 1 inch foam there. I think the camera angle makes it look tight
Here is a pic from this morning.

RE: $Money and Forums $

The forum makes money mostly on traffic. They use the traffic to entice in advertisers. The advertisers pay a certain $$$ monthly to have their ad/banner in certain areas of the website. Also RV.net utilizes google ads. That is what they cal Pay per click. so when you click on an ad that has google in the lower corner the register rings for Affinity Group. Affinity Group is pretty large in the RV world and I know they have a lot to do with other expos. For example they run the Denver Snowmobile Expo.
Hope this answers your question. Don't know why everybody is jumping all over you. I own/operate a snowmobile forum and it just about pays for my monthly webhosting service. Occasionally i get free products. That's about the it and i keep my day job.

heating a small enclosed trailer?

i have a small enclosed trailer and am looking to add heat. Catch is the trailer is a single axle and with my sleds in there i am close to the MAX payload after all my gear and fuel are in there. Also this is not a large trailer with a lot of room to spare. I've thought about adding a catalytic heater but i need something that pushes air around so it will dry my gear.
There really isn't a lot of room to add a RV furnace. Are there any 12V heater that actually push a lot of air?
Ideas?
here is a pic of the inside of the trailer. Floor length is 11 ft.

RE: Piics of my new Northstar Arrow

There would need to be some fab work to get the bumper to fit.
I need to figure out the step thing. This camper is MUCH higher off the ground do to the thicker floor.

RE: Piics of my new Northstar Arrow

Where do you have to go to get her?
5 star RV in henderson CO. It's a NEW 2004 Northstar. It was built for a LB Truck but the Dealer built a full wrap on it for a SB truck. Only major option it has is the insulated windows and I had them add a wave 3 heater. I am adding airbags

RE: Snow Tire Suggestions?

Like this weekend.....wow, it rolled in and slammed everything except...go figure...where I live. But it took 6 hours for a normally 2.5 hour drive on Sunday to get home. I was very pleased how my new Michellins worked, but they are only available in 19.5's.
I was up on Sat. Left Vail Pass at 3:30 and didn't get home till 8. It was a mess.
Also I had a heavy load towing a small trailer and was having trouble in the parking lot. My buddy with Nokian's, no load, towing a big trailer walked all over me.
Getting the snow wheels powdercoated and should hopefully have them on in sometime next week.

RE: Snow Tire Suggestions?

I'm going with Blizzak's on some take off dodge 3500 steel wheels. All Seasons are probably a big improvement but not what i'm looking for.
This truck is used soley on the weekends to get me to the mountains. High altitude winter driving here is CO can get nasty. That is why I am going with a 100% snow tire rather than an All Season tire.
thanks for the advice.

RE: Snow Tire Suggestions?

do you think it will be a noticeable difference with a 16 vs 17 wheel with the Blizzak 265's loaded?
