RE: Picking up new NL... Advice

Congrats on your new rig. I also have a Chevy and as other posters have said there is no isolator. The way mine sits on the truck I can easily unplug if I'm sitting overnite. Eventually I will add the isolator. The one real problem I had is with the pass through window. If you have the solid window there should be no problem, but if you have the slider/ screen have them hose it down before you load it. While they are doing that go inside and and watch the window track. If it's like mine it will overflow. I currently have a solid window on order to replace the slider. No other issues with ours. We love it.

RE: Eternabond on aluminum

I didn't have very good luck with eternabond on my last camper. Roof was aluminum and so was the siding. I cleaned the areas as per instructions. It looked like it was going to stick until I took it on a trip. I ended up removing it all.

RE: 2009 Fall NE Truck Camper Jamboree in PA (Pictures Added)

I'm jealous. Wish I could join the ranks of the retired and traveling...
OK Scott... By the powers vested in me as a past wagonmaster I do hereby proclaim you OLD AND TIRED. You have 2 wishes left, and I know 1 of those will be to retract the 1st wish, so use your last wish wisely.:B

RE: TC Pass thru window

Fishwar,
I was thinking along the same lines. I just need to keep the water out of the track. The track is filling up and the air pressure won't allow the weep holes to function.

RE: northern lite

Photomike,
We got a 2010 for the same price as a 2009. Just have to find the right dealer. Had to travel a bit but it was worth the effort.

RE: northern lite

I am looking for a Northern Lite or a Bigfoot also. Is that 10 foot model you are getting heavy for a SRW? Not trying to weight police you, just curious what it weighs.
The listed dry weight is 2980. It is a little heavier than my last rig but it handles it fine and I am comfortable with hauling it. I have yet to go get it weighed.
Suds, E is happy too

TC Pass thru window

Does anyone have one with a slide window that doesn' leak while driving in the rain. We put up with a leaky one with our last camper for almost 5 yrs. When we ordered our new camper we had the option of a solid window or a slider with screen. They assured us that they were now dealing with a new company and they had solved the problem.
So we went with a sliding widow, and guess what it leaks. The smart thing to do is to replace it with a solid one, but we really like having an extra opening for those hot humid days.

RE: Vermont Again: a trip report

Thanks for the tip, Ann. We'll check it out, along with Ben and Jerry's of course :). How about the other granite quarry...Rock of Ages - worth visiting?
We visited Rock of Ages a few years ago. We thought it was interesting, but I think they were just trying to sell me a headstone.

RE: How many Northern Lite owners do we have?

Add us to the list. Took delivery of a 2010 10-2 Special Edition on July 8. Thanks to Spott, Luv2skyski,Myrtle and Flyfisher for all the great info and tours that helped us make the decision.Congrats! Can I have a couple of branches from your money tree? If I remember correctly you had a brand new Bigfoot at the rally. Did you get the "larger" bathroom in your NL? I'm always happy to welcome a convert. Later, Dave.
Dave that wasn't us in a Bigfoot, but yes we got the Special Ed. which has the bigger bath. Oh by the way our money tree is now dead.:B

RE: Vt camping suggestions??

How about Andover where we used to hold our spring rallies. The name of the park escapes me but I'm sure someone will chime in.

RE: Northern Lite - Another Stair Question

I think if look at their web you will find that Northern Lite offers a bumper and a retractable 2 step option. It is standard equipment on one model and an option for the others. They have offered this for a few years now. Bigfoot had a similar set up before they closed. It sure beats the scissor steps. It still is a long way down, but at least it's solid.
