What are you mining?

So cool, thanks for sharing. I wonder if there is a summer equivilent of RTR up north as I am not a fan of AZ. Mod edit, please when quoting type your response outside the quote box. It's very confusing it you don't

I just googled "complete awning kit for RV". Shadeproinc is awesome and if I ever get this 20' monster installed, I may order a slideout awning for my superslide so I dont have to brush off the branches anymore.

I will look. A little dumb with the computer stuff. But, the seller is "shadeproinc" located in California and they sell on Ebay. Fantastic outfit. For example; one of the arms arrived damaged and they sent me another complete hardware pack UPS. I don't understand how they are able to sell for...

Hey thanks alot Sofi. Actually the one I have is completely manual and is cranked in and out with a big crank tool which may present another problem for me as my trailer is very high! I am tall but first I've got to get it on and it is heavy and bulky 19' long! Carefree has an electric but I...

Yes, thanks Ranger, I am trying to use those but what I had and wish I still had, was a Dometic 8100 but they cost a ton more than this one. This setup is a little different and hopefully all the holes arent stripped out but some are since the old one was blown away. In case anyone else needs...

Blunt, but to the point. It took me a long time to gain the necessary experience and did receive much help from strangers. Probably the worst experiences I had were when I was young starting out in Alaska. One time we were wheeling thru a swamp somewhere on the way to a fishing spot and the...

Finally broke down and bought another awning after not even having one for several years as the original was blown away by a Willawa in Alaska. I returned from a tanker at the VMT to find most of my awning in the woods. I would imagine there has got to be a video on the installation of a new one...

There are so many well stated opinions here so its obviously up to you. It sounds like I have a rig like High Desert in that both the 4x4 truck and the fifth wheel are lifted and modified for heavy use offroad as that is where its at as far as I am concerned. I like the extra storage space for...

Probably last a few months and break like all the other chinese stuff. If somebody in a big truck doesnt run you over first.

Like founder Bob describes, its as cheap as you make it. I really enjoyed his story and could relate to the divorce part. I also lived in Anchorage a while and in AK for about 12 years. It was difficult and I didn't live in a box van so much admiration there. I am so sorry for his loss of his...

Very nice of you. I went to college at WVU and met some of the finest folks there. That whole region is just beautiful and I am considering finding a place of some sort myself nearby in Tennessee near Va. If I don't just return to the wandering of the west.

I dont need no stinking badges!

I feel true peace only when wandering about the country in the mountains and forest. Like most folks though I wasn't able to do this life though and decided to slave along much of the time. I did alot of it all around Alaska for about a decade after escaping NY and Wall St in my early 20s. A...

NM is so awesome and one of my favorite places in the country. I did not like AZ at all for wintering and after 2 wks drove back over to NM and spent the winter at Rockhound SP which is just above the border and it was still chilly much of the time but doesn't bother me. I was out there this...
