RE: Some Like It Hot- Part 1, TC Trip Report.

Great looking trip report.
Those budget dome tents are fine as long as there is no wind or rain, or cold, or bugs or.....
And thus you made a better choice.
Hey, Catalina State Park is only about 8 miles from my house. Been on the Sutherland trail and to the Romero pools several times.
But Mt. Lemmon is only 9100 ft. You didn't hike all the way up there, did you? Next time you're in the area, take the back road up there.

RE: stored camper today

It will start to get too hot
NEVER! (for me) But I do like to visit the GC north rim, and other elevated environs.

RE: TC vs TT Opinions

You would not want to take a TT to the spot in my signature picture.
So, as others have said -- depends on where you want to go, and what you want to do when/if you get there.

RE: Connect 2nd Battery To Isolator?

The camper batteries should be matched; ie, not one new one and one old one. I would prefer them both in the camper, if room - but that's just me.

RE: Trip Report: Weekend in Tucson

While taking these pics I listened to last half of Days of Future Passed by the Moody Blues, the perfect soundtrack while taking in a spectacular sunset.
Your tastes seem to be in good order all the way around.

RE: 3.42 or 4.10?

But in my thinking with the 850 ft lb engine and the torque/hp curve it has the 3:42 should work very well.
I agree with this, even though I only have a puny 650 ft-lb Duramax and Allison trans. (so I 'need' the 3.73)

RE: pop up campers

Both Northstar and Outfitter make high quality products, in my opinion. I'd suggest that a more direct comparison is between a Northstar 850SC and an Apex 8. (both having showers)
Make a spreadsheet (or list) to compare features that you want, and prices.

RE: Where to buy a decent snatch block?

I just bought this one to use with an 8000 lb winch.

RE: Mini-Split AC for TC

There are some 12v dc mini-splits designed for mobile applications -- if you have big bucks, and plenty of battery and charging capacity.
30amps holy cow...
That's at 12c dc. ~equivalent to 3 amps at 120v ac.

RE: Please help identify the manufacturer of this vintage camper

The glen-l floor plan doesn't look anything like yours. But if it's homemade, I guess the floor plan is 'flexible'.

Great pictures. I like the little boy's sun glasses.
Not sure I'm seeing right -- what kind of tie-downs are you using?

RE: Another new one (Hallmark)

I believe it is a first for a popup truck camper with a cab over profile as low as a Hallmark camper to offer a queen north/ south bed.
Wrong again -- Northstar 850sc

RE: Another new one (Hallmark)

NS cabover is 'new and interesting'?? Only in the sense that it's 8 or more years behind some others.
Hallmark is a great company, with great products -- but come on.

I've got one that looks just like that. Be glad to sell it to you, as I've never used it.

RE: Front Hitch Generator Mount / House

cewillis...
Did you have tow hooks? I take it you removed the tow hooks to put the receiver tubes in their place and stead?
I'm going to modify the original tow hooks to mount in the receiver tubes with hitch pins. (and if that doesn't work for some reason, I'll get some ready-made ones for that purpose)
