Topic: So what did you do to your Truck Camper today?

Posted By: RockyRoadCamper on 11/20/12 08:26pm

Caulked the roof seams that needed it with Dicor. Easy to do, and bet it works great.

Strapped a tarp over the top for winter. Hopefully next winter I'll have a shelter. I was surprised to see that enough light was making it through the 5 mil tarp to the solar panel to keep a little current going into the batteries. I did pull all the fuses to hopefully eliminate any loads that may draw more than this trickle. I'll monitor the charge/voltage for a while.

Also purchased a Christmas present for myself, a Honda EU2000i. What a sweet little generator. I fired it up after I got home and I doubt the neighbors even knew. Of course, the nearest neighbor is around 300 yards away...

Filled up one propane tank that was empty. Had a coupon for one gallon free. Saved $2.99.

Didn't exactly work on the Camper. But in a way I did. Sold the 2000 Ford F250 SD over the weekend. So that precipitated getting all of the Camper related items removed from the truck and detailing out the truck.

Hopefully by the end of this week we'll have our new CAMPER Hauler a NEW 2012 FORD F350 SD 6.7L Diesel 4x4 Super Cab. I have already ordered up the Torklift frame mount tie downs, the Wiring Harness and Timbren Suspension units. Soon as I get the items installed we'll figure out somewhere to head to ASAP.

Offloaded the camper back at it's home base, stowed all the gear in the garage and parked the truck. Now, it's a matter of cleaning up the mess from two months being gone and fixing the water heater pilot.

went out and made sure all the branches from the neighbors small trees were trimmed back enough to not rub the tc, shut all the vents and windows, taped the shoreline to the wall socket. By tomorrow morning we are supposed to be feeling 50mph winds and over 5" of rain.
