I'm not certain the platform in the trailer was even the stock arrangement. It had an inner spring mattress that looked like stock, but it was totally unsatisfactory. Also, when towing from Ocala to Tennessee the mattress was moving around all out of place. I used nominal 3/4" plywood to...

Jack, thanks for posting. Great photos and good info. I, too, like the North Rim best. Cooler, shadier, and far less crowded. It is on the calendar for 2016 the Good Lord willing.

Well, finally finished rebuilding the bed platform and installed the new mattress on our new to us 27T. Bought a new RV short queen Parklane mattress, and boy is it comfortable. Almost forgot to mention the new heated mattress pad A couple of pictures...

That is something I haven't thought of. It would probably work well with a pick up truck. I would have to figure out how it would work with a Suburban. The two units at less than 50# each are sure easy to get out. The two would only be used when air conditioning. One will carry everything...

Thanks, yeah that is pretty much like I see it. I think it is really false economy to run a generator in a CG with hook ups. Hooking up is probably cheaper in the long run, and no power shedding in the trailer makes life easier. We also live in the Southeast where there are no 8000'...

Looking to do some boondocking out west in summer. When temps reach over 100 degrees air conditioning is for us a necessity. I looked at several solutions. The A/C takes almost 3 KW to run. Looked at several good 3 to 3 1/2 KW units. They were in the $2,000 range. The problem is at about...

Northern Tools has their 80 watt solar panel on sale for $229.95. reduced $50.00. If you have a coupon, you can also take it off. I just purchased the panel with controller & inverter (200 watt) along with a 50' extension cable with a coupon for another $50.00 off. This should keep the...

I got a heated mattress pad, but I'm not sure it was really intended for me.:confused:

I was just faced with the same decision. I looked at several TrailManors and Hi Los. They both have desirable features. If your tow vehicle is lite, probably a TM would be better. I have a 3/4 ton 4 whd Suburban, so weight was not a problem. I think the Hi Lo is built heavier with cavernous...

Thanks for posting the photos. beautiful.

I just checked it. It seems pretty flimsy. So, I guess the idea will be abandoned. There doesn't seem to be anything to attach reinforcing.

Jack, thanks for the response. The fact that everything stays dry and clean including the curtains makes me think the bulb sealer is doing its job. I will definitely look into the strength, and your idea of a bar is a good one. Don

Using the search feature has turned up nothing. I could be using the wrong search terms. Has anyone used the front "shelf" area of the top half overhang for storage? It seems to me that a toe rail could be installed making it usable space. Our galley is across the front, and the storage...

Superbrightleds.com is having a cyber sale with an extra 10% off this weekend. Most of their lights have a buc circuit onboard that allows them to operate over a wide range of voltages. Plus they are closing out a light that I can use at a much reduced price. I ordered warm white for the...

Thanks so much for the helpful reply.I just picked it up in Ocala yesterday, and got home to Tennessee today. I will winterize for awhile, and try to set up a solar battery charger. The trailer towed very well. So far so good.

Hello or should I say "hi"? I just acquired a Hi-Lo 2003 Tow Lite 27 this week. I have a question about refrigeration. Can the refrigerator be left on when towing? I am sure to have other questions, and will be reading the forum. Thanks to the moderators and all who have made this forum...
