    OREGON '23...............Postcards from the Road

    Seven weeks from tomorrow, I lock the gate and start the season. July was 90's everyday. June was great, May was a bit chilly and I am thinking late Sept might be a bit on the cold side. Once again I skipped out on the extreme weather, and yes 90s was hot, but it was cooler than elsewhere...

A Class A is not simple, and someone looking to get into one ( or a class C) is taking on more than van or car living, so digging into a integrated solar system is not that much more of...

    Converting RV to solar

    This is 100% incorrect. I have 2004 class a with 1400w of solar, an All-In-One and a 15kw battery I built. $5000. It supplies my current needs, but will be expanded. I draw about 350 watts avg 24/7. There is lot to it and I didn't do it without a lot of planning and study. Roof space is...

    I bought an SUV now what?

    I have to ask.... what have you been doing for 2 years while you saved up? If it were me or my friend here, we'd have designed and redesigned the whole interior a few times, and read every thread I could find in here and watched every video I could find out there.. So.. that said.. .what is...
