@Stonyboot2 жыл бұрын
I’ve looked at them but have some issues with how they work. I need to adjust individual wheel height. I can select 1, 2, 3, or 4 blocks to get my desired leveling. With the ramp style, I’d need to adjust the distance from the tires and gauge height on distance traveled. I think they are a great idea, but I see them mostly for lifting none side of a 1 or 2 wheel trailer. Any advice on using them to level a truck camper?

Y'all put that truck and camper to the test.... I'll be 65 this year...from Ohio but moved to S.C. 22 years ago. I had enough of winters. Rebuilding my old 2001 Dodge dually. Used to pull a 53' wedge trailer with up to 26,000 lbs gvw. Truck is built just needs freshened up. Looking at a camper like yours or an all fiberglass Northern lite but being from Ohio, leaning towards Nucamp. Those Amish and Mennonites are true craftsmen!

Good luck in your search and with rebuilding your very cool truck!

@wingnutbert96852 жыл бұрын
@@Stonyboot Yep. It's something that isn't realized by many. Understandable to think high % would be better. But the science of how it kills germs/bac/virus cells makes the 70% ratio apparent. Basically, the higher % alcohol desiccates the cell wall too fast and actually protects the core, keeping it's moisture. Thus allowing it to survive and recover. 70% ratio is the golden ratio. Has enough water to not desiccate the cell wall so fast so the alcohol has time to soak in to the core and actually kill it. I get the 99% in boxes of 500ml bottles. Mix that w/ 210ml distilled water. Much better then the gel hand sanitizers which, these days, are dodgy at best and it's way cheaper and leaves no film on your hands. Good for cleaning too. :)

When I watched you take the fuel cap off the truck before fueling, I noticed all the dirt that had gotten in around those filler necks. It is amazing that the car companies are selling these vehicles without fuel caps and that you need to purchase one like you did to protect your fuel inlet from letting all that dirt settle in there. These trucks DEMAND super clean fuel. I am just amazed they think none of that dirt will end up in your fuel tank only to cause havoc at some time later down the road. Nice job handling the truck through the slick stuff. I have the same in a single rear wheel and when you have a camper on the back skidding takes on a whole different meaning.
@Stonyboot2 жыл бұрын
The truck came with a plastic cap, but they are notorious for leaking and letting stuff in. I bought this filler cap on amazon since it has a better seal. I’m disappointed with the quality and style of the filler neck, its plastic and prone to break. So far, it hasn’t, but on a $62k truck, you’d think they would give you an actual cap. The road was actually pretty grippy, the snow had a favorable consistency. If it got nasty, I would have put the chains on. We don’t want to lose control…

Hearing you say filling propane tanks to 4.6 gallons (if i heard correctly) just gave me so much anxiety lol even completely empty we'd never fill them past 4.2 gallons. We've had people get them overfilled in the past like that and it lit their decks on fire cuz they use them for their bbqs. They have an automatic shutoff in them that should never allow them to get to 4.6 gallons. Be careful! My work fills propane tanks (I've been filling tanks for just almost 5 years now) from that same size all the way to the big 100lb tanks (that hold 22 gallons) and over filling is a huge problem. That being your vehicle and your home, I dont want you to go thru something bad with your propane tanks. It could literally catch your whole rig on fire

A 20lb propane tank holds 4.6 gallons of LPG. That is where the OPD will shut off. According to many industry websites: 20 lb Propane Tank Dimensions: 1' 6" in height and 1' in diameter. 20 pound propane tanks are often referred to as grill cylinders and hold 4.6 gallons of propane when full. 4.6 is normal when the tank is empty.

Please be careful using your engine brake (or cruise) in any snow or ice, especially on a down grade. Your saving grace is the weight on your rear axle. Please check the manual for warnings. Love a cold camp, I run my 120" sleeper propane heater November and half of December on one 20 lb. tank. Think about an auxiliary engine coolant heater for your Backpack. Nice and warm when you stop. Enjoy!

If the wheels slip, the exhaust break disengages on our truck. The road was pretty grippy and I frequently check the conditions. Also, in a situation like that, I'll run in 4x4 to distribute the engine breaking force front and rear ready to hit neutral if needed. We don't really plan to stay in the cold weather for long, so I don't really want to invest in extra equipment for staying warm. I'll just drive south 😂 ! What kind of truck to you drive?

How many times have you gotten stuck in snow? Duallies are notoriously bad in snow. I got stuck once in Colorado mtns and barely made it out. Almost had to go get my Tacoma to pull myself out. Also, did a 360 degree spin out going down Berthud pass. Evidently going 35mph was too fast for conditions that day. Also, didnt have enough weight in the bed. Goodyear Duratracs x6 couldnt save me.

I've never been stuck in our rig, a little slippery, but never stuck. I'm actually surprised at how well its done in mud, snow, and off road. Having as much weight as we do is very helpful. I also try to avoid anything that looks like a bad idea. I've had my fill of getting stuck in the snow back in my teens and 20s out doing stupid stuff in snow storms. It was fun back then, but I don't have any interest in those kind of games anymore! 😊

Are you guys already well outta my stomping grounds? I really wanted to meet up with ya'll! Also, x2 on the exhaust brakes. Our Rams have the best in the industry! Lastly, my father instilled me with a bit of knowledge I'd like to pass out to you and anyone else who would like to know it: Keep your thumbs on the outside of the steering wheel. If you get in a crash, the airbag will explode outwards and break or severely injure your thumbs. He was an accident reconstructionist for the highway patrol for over 20 years, so I'm sure he knows what he's talking about. 1.6 gallons for 24 hours? Wow! That's not that efficient. I'd love to do a comparison video between our campers. that being said, I only have another couple weeks before I'm dry camping up here in the north country. It's just too stressful making sure I have enough battery and propane to keep up with the cold temps. I have noticed in similar temps, I can make a 20 lb tank last around 4 days. it would be a really cool video to compare the differences between the Aldi system and the conventional forced air furnace(of which I'm not a fan). I am only on 2-12 volt lifeline AGM batteries that give me a total of around 130 a/hr of energy, so I am very concerned with power consumption currently. Up here in the north country, solar( I have 2-100 w currently) is not the best option for maintaining power, so the struggle is real when I full-time up here in the north country.
@Stonyboot2 жыл бұрын
Yeah, we are in Washington now. We tend to run 2-4 weeks behind with our videos for a bunch of reasons. Whatever we post is going to be at least a couple days behind where we really are. Your dad is 100% right. Not only are the air bags dangerous, but if you hit something with the front wheels, the steering wheel has a tendency to spin and will take a thumb or finger with it. Don't ask me how I know... It's very good advice and seeing your comment reminds me to pay more attention. Thanks for the reminder :) Most RV heaters have similar thermal efficiency, however, the amount and type of insulation varies widely. The Alde is efficient, but the insulation is not as good as some other brands that are really focused on cold weather camping. We never had plans to spend much time in the cold, but we will make the best of it while we are in the north. Cold weather camping is definitely more demanding than fair weather. I still love the adventure!
