Re: What's In Your Camera? Reply #1935 – June 20, 2024, 07:16:33 pm Indeed they were Dave. At sales events in San Diego Stadium I ruined a few sales by loudly asking "how can you sell these when adding the driver by himself exceeds the weight rating?" with potential customers nearby. The listed weights were in the high 5900# and the GVWR was about 6000#. A friend completely emptied his mothers old micro motorhome, including removing the microwave that came with it, before trading it in when, she bought a new Class A. He weighed it (without him in it) before he transported it, and it was still over the gross allowed weight! What's your rig's weight FULLY LOADED, and do you care if it's over the... Toyota stopped selling the bare chassis' because it was giving them a bad reputation. I wonder if they were in lawsuits about chassis failures? Another co-worker that commuted in a similar MicroMH, soon thereafter, was going around a turn (near work) and had the differential come apart and leave a half axle in the street! (More story....when this happened, another coworker admitted that he had lost the entire rear axle of his micromini on the highway a few years earlier....) I had a Ford F150 P/U with a camper at the time, so I was paying attention to such failures! RonB 2 Likes
Re: What's In Your Camera? Reply #1936 – June 22, 2024, 02:09:39 am We had inherited a Sunrader Motorhome that was built on a Toyota 4 cylinder chassis. This was our first introduction to RVing and I knew very little about weight limitations and the like. We used it for a few trips until we learned about the dually rear end issues. I ordered the replacement rear end prior to selling it to a couple from Arizona. I had the rear end shipped directly to their home. They were aware of the reported issues and were happy with the arrangement.The rig was very small and I’m positive that I had overloaded it. I’m lucky it didn’t blow apart on us. Glad it didn’t. Years later we purchased our ‘15 RB with its much improved cargo carrying capacity.Kent 1 Likes

Re: What's In Your Camera? Reply #1939 – June 24, 2024, 11:39:33 pm Gregg,Our cat, Sooty, had a desert garden of his own. I created it for him so that he could escape our little blind terror, Muppet. She used to hover over him and bark incessantly. He never batted an eye. Sweet cat. Sooty passed away a few years ago but his garden remains as a reminder of his life with us. A little more green now but still fond memories persist.Kent 5 Likes

Re: What's In Your Camera? Reply #1944 – July 06, 2024, 08:42:49 pm Roughing it in my daughter’s MB in Grand Canyon NP. She got a camping site in Mather Campground on the south rim. We rented a hotel room just south of her in town. Kind of fun hanging out in the LD again. She made fig Risotto for dinner. She added a nice spice rack. The base is just taped to the cabinet. And the jars are magnetic. When going down the road the jars of spices are on the closed stove cover. 2 Likes

Re: What's In Your Camera? Reply #1947 – July 07, 2024, 01:41:51 am My daughter and I spent a week in Mather CG last year. Woke up to a foot of snow. Loved every minute of our stay. Even swept the snow off of the solar panels. Had a wonderful meal at the Arizona Room overlooking the canyon. Hermits Rest and the Lookout were other highlights of our visit.Heading back in April of ‘25. Hope it snows again.Kent 9 Likes
