RE: Bring a knife to Canada?
We leave on the road today and we will be taking a ferry eventually when we get there. Thanks for the information and help.
RE: Bring a knife to Canada?
It's a pocket knife that my daughter found for me on one of our trips. I keep it now for good luck. When we went to take a boat to the Statue of Liberty, I almost had it confiscated. They made me walk back to my truck and we missed the boat. I don't know the exact rules on crossing the border and have never been to Canada - I've carried it for years for setimental reasons. I'd hate to lose it.
RE: squirrels damaged cover
They ate the wiring out of my truck around the engine once. I had no idea until the truck wouldn't start one day. $$$ to fix - I hope you get them.
RE: Unloading a camper on a slanted driveway
Since the camper is used, check where the brackets connect to the camper for dry rot, water damage or other trama. The front end of the camper should be a little higher than the back - not level. I used to have old jacks until one failed on me once. Ended up replacing them with new jacks. You can't beat the price - enjoy and welcome!
RE: TC with a Deck, Balcony, and View
I think the original camper in this thread is fantastic - if it doesn't leak! If anyone ever runs into this person tell him great job from roadrunner65.
RE: Fuel prices making you change your plans?
Campers don't have motors and last near forever and your diesel is only 7 years old - they're both near new in my book. Unless you "need" a motorhome - I think you should keep what you have.
RE: Cover for front mounted spare tire?
I've been thinking of putting on a front mount hitch for my 19.5 spare. Do you guys have pictures you can post?
RE: Toll roads to Puerto Vallarta
Thanks guys - crandle - great blog! We're going to go to Victoria, Canada first. I'm going to have to think hard about Puerto Vallarta - those tolls sound safe - ever heard of any problems on them? I've also heard you can go to the tip of Baja and take a ferry to the mainland of Mexico, but I don't know if this is true.
Toll roads to Puerto Vallarta
I've heard that there are toll roads that go to Puerto Vallarta that are expensive but really safe. Is this true? And how much are the tolls?
