Thanks. We really enjoy it. Instead of taking a big vacation every year, we try to camp as many weekends as possible. The ol' Sub handles this trailer with no sweat, but I sure miss the pickup when it comes to hauling coolers and firewood.

Turkey Run State Park, Marshall, IN. Site 193.

Got the camper out again last week. This trip was to Sycamore Springs Park in English, IN. It is a private park; but the admission, RV camping and firewood are all free. Yes, free. They have 20 RV sites with electric hookups, water nearby. Plenty of open space, excellent showerhouse. No...

Fixed the pics from above post.

I use a ScanGaugeII to monitor my coolant temps, and what the PCM reports is typically higher than the stock gauge.

221k, replaced injectors at 217k. Balancer & crank pulley coming soon, starting to get a vibration just off idle.

The TT sold in one day on craigslist, so I found this one to replace it. 2004 Aerolite Cub 236 hybrid. Two popout beds and couch slide. Kids love it, wife loves the slideout.

Yeah, I'm not terribly concerned with the fuel economy, just trying to ease the load on the truck. Loaded for the weekend the TT weighs (estimated) 6300lbs. I'm grabbing my number from the Coachmen spec sheet dry weight plus guessing on gear. The hybrids we will be looking at max out GVWR @...

Starve Hollow State Rec Area, Brownstown, IN. Lakefront site #31. On a side note, we have decided to sell this TT in favor of a hybrid TT with pop-out bunkends. This TT was fine with my pickup, but the Sub is geared higher and overall more worn out so it struggles towing, especially...

Little late since you already mounted yours, but you can kind of see my Hella 500s mounted low in front of the air dam on my Sub. I can get a straight on shot later if anyone wants it.

Kind of a late addition to this post, but L98TPI is correct in that GM used a goofy 1.5 DIN radio along with Chrysler. There are very few head units that fill the entire space. In my 96 I used a Pioneer unit, since I prefer the stockish look. Pioneer has discontinued these head units, so look...

I bought the fan for my Sub with the same intentions to wire it into the A/C clutch and also to a toggle switch so I can force it on when towing heavy if necessary. I plan to relocate the trans cooler to underneath the truck and eliminate the radiator trans cooler.

Since the forecast called for temps in the 70s and sunny skies, and my son's birthday was the 2nd, we decided to get the camper out for the weekend. Rolled out Saturday morning and came home this afternoon (Monday). Beautiful weather, and as a bonus the CG was deserted Sunday after 2ish when...

Looks nice! I replaced my rear lights with LEDs and just screwed the plate directly to the body. It's not illuminated, but I haven't been hassled for it yet. Last fall I cleaned 5lbs of old mud dauber nests from our furnace. Same symptoms, fan but no heat. I removed it from the trailer...

Prepping the truck and trailer for spring! Got my Dodge mirrors installed yesterday. They're not perfect, but works for me. I wish they were power, but can't complain for what I paid for them. Cleaned out the trailer, the wife had turned into a storage shed over...
