RE: 8 Gauge Wire

Napa has a 100 amp 2 wire Lift Gate Plug set you can use to add a heavy gauge umbilical between you camper and your truck.

RE: Wiring 4 awg charging wire to upgrade 8 awg factory wire.

Napa also has a premade cord as well, but I think its way too big for your needs.

RE: Is Facebook killing this site?

IME, Facebook posters are notorious for posting about something they have no knowledge of. In fact they often lead off with the statement: "I'm not an expert...". There seems to be the feeling on Facebook that if you don't post frequently, even if it's on a topic you know nothing about, your account will wither and die.
That's actually a deliberate mechanic in how most social media works as part of the algorithm. If you do not post often and get an ever increasing amount of responses, your replies will be deprioritized or completely left undisplayed to most people viewing the thread.

RE: Is Facebook killing this site?

So, whatever number you use will need to be able to forever receive phone calls or SMS text messages, as it will do one or the other to allow you to login.
Unfortunately, you can't once and done it, as you'll need the number later for reverifications as the tokens expire.
I’m not sure about that, after sign-up / registration myself years ago, probably a dozen now, using an VOIP line I’ve never had them ask for a reverification again since.
If you don't have Multi-factor authentication enabled, then the need I mentioned is moot for the moment. Facebook hasn't shifted yet to mandating that it be used (though to be honest, if they did, it would likely cut down some on the amount of hacked accounts because just having the password would no longer cut it), so you likely not run into it as an issue. Its only on MFA enabled accounts that you have to have a valid number for verification.

RE: Truck Camper Adventure Rally

Would they perhaps turn you away if you happen to show up, say as the 450th attendee and drove a thousand miles to get there? Just asking.
Trust that without rally issued identification (worn at all times), you’ll be disallowed…
3 tons
Oh well There are lots of other places to see around there like Zion and go Bicycling. Wonderful place.
Don't forget to get your advanced entry pass for Zion. They're doing the same thing as yellow stone these days.

RE: Truck Camper Adventure Rally

Have an awesome time :), unfortunately, Merry's finishing got delayed with other around home projects and work, so I didn't sign up for a Rally I didn't know if I could attend.
I'm guessing based on the brand line up that most of the vintage units are the Sunlites and Alaskans (I don't recall if BigFoot was around in the pre-90s era or not) and maybe a few lances.

RE: Batteries died...sheesh

So stopped by Costco and their Interstate battery replacement for the napa with slightly more RC was a whopping $90ea....ah, no Brainer! Bought two.
Add a modest solar charging system.
I would have purchased sio2 batteries.
I hate to say it, but I used to ALWAYS read and respect your posts, until recently with your ALWAYS pushing the sio2 BATTS that 99.9% of people DO NOT need. Give it a rest. You know this poster more than likely doesn't need that expensive niche battery.
Emcvay I have to take the opposite on this one. I still read and respect all of Pianotuna's posts. Sure he likes his sio2 batteries but so what? I'll bet you there is at least one other person on this forum who read his posts and went with sio2. And even if I'm wrong I still fall back to the saying "there is more than one way to slice a cake" sorry I happen to like cats. :)
Eh, I count it better than the bucket of gatekeeping around LifePo4 batteries vs anything else.
I'll take a recommendation vs that behavior any day of the week :).

RE: New Superduty gas engine for 2023.

I mean if we're playing displacement one-upmanship, they could always go back to their original 7.5L of the old Ford 460 ;) :p
