Is that a 12 volt TV and if so where did you get it? I'm looking for a 12 volt/120 volt flat panel.

Trailer it, I haul one or two four wheelers behind mine. I adjust the position of my four wheelers on the trailer so there is no more than about 30 lbs on the hitch. Mike

Is that aluminum siding or fiberglass? It looks good, post pics after painting if you can. Thanks, Mike

How 'bout a little more info. What kind of glue? Was this applied over paneling? My "wood" paneling seems to have a wood grain vinyl finish, will wall paper stick to it? I like what you did. Mike

Buy a sewing machine for $100, material for $50, learn to sew and make your own. It's not hard to make curtains. When you are done you will have the curtains and the machine for your next project.

Great pics, Mike

Thanks, will be anxiously awaiting your pic to see how this is done. Also do you know the brand of awning? Mike

I like that idea, a couple days or a weekend would be good for me. They wouldn't have to be big events maybe just three or more for a day or two at lake or something.

I contacted the company also and they were one of the most knowledgeable and helpful that I have run across.

I am looking at your picture and it looks like an awning bracket right below your water heater door. Is there any chance you could post a better pic of the bracket? I have a similar situation and would like to install an awning but have put it off because I thought the water heater door was in the way. Thanks, Mike

I just finished replacing my stripes and lettering on my Toyota Escaper, bought the vinyl from http://www.lettersunlimited.com/

Look on craigslist.com

I've got an '86 Escaper 4 cyl, fuel injecter, 4 sp, no ps, dash air, roof air been through the passes in the rockies several trips now, no problems. When I tow my two four wheelers that slows me down but I still get there, more relaxing driving without them though. As far as air if you ever go south into hot humid states you will have to have air or you will sweat like a pig day and night in the summer months. I'm from Kansas and the southeast part of the state is unbearable. Now I have been in some of the western parts of Kansas that are not to bad when the sun goes down and it's dry and a breeze is blowing. Another great thing about roof air, some campgrounds can be noisy and with the windows closed and the air on you sleep through the night without hearing a thing. The only time power steering would be needed is when parking, I would like to have ps then. Once you are moving the steering does not take much effort. On the highway there is no difference. My mileage has ranged from 13 to 23 mpg most times it is about 16-17 mpg. Oddly I seem to get some of the best mileage at high altitudes. Well, I have rambled on long enough. Mike

I would attend a toyin at any of the states I mentioned but I think Illinois may be a little farther than we want to travel. If it were going on during cool or cold weather I would consider traveling to Texas or Louisiana also.

I found a copy of a Dolphin pamphlet on this site and the original tires on these campers were 185x14LT. That settled it for me.
