The guy I bought my step van from had a wrecked toy hauler that had a complete undamaged slide out he offered for free. If I had a shop, I would have taken it. It would be a pimp addition. But no elevator.
I'll never buy a roof top tent for that exact reason. I don't need that kind of danger in my life.
everytime I see one I think of a broken leg. Or hanging helpless by my leg.
Agreed. Not to mention the hazards of peeing in a bottle in your tent.
certain locals and temperatures I’m doing this anyway. It would be more comparable to pee in a bottle in your bed. Those roof top things are all bed right?
pissing off the second floor of your camper while awesome I’m sure is less than ideal due to splashing of piss dirt. Nothing saves the space a ladder takes up like an elevator.
I think that it's an interesting concept, minus the elevator, would prefer it to slide-outs.
It has the potential to get quite interesting in a wind storm...
I'd do it on a solo trip but my girl wouldn't be too happy even if we got one of those lady pee funnels.
Right? Super top heavy. Needs automatic fold-out buttresses.
Also don't discount the amount of space required for the lifting hardware, would definitely take up some precious space downstairs. Heck even those bed lifts take a lot of room.
I noticed the size of the lift columns.
I believe the preferred nomenclature is ‘Shewee’.
True - because designed and made in China.
Every couple of years I refinish the cabinetry in my 2008 Lance 1055. The Dry bath Cabinets just got the refinish. They were looking a bit worse for wear and tear. A few minutes with the orbital sander followed by some red oak stain has them looking like new.
I actually used a ton of it in my last RV and just a few days ago bought a whole slew more to use on the new coach. Most of it will be used in the belly making drawers and cabinets on the slider trays as well as making drawers in some of the larger cabinets. The stuff is really rigid if you build it right.
I particularly like the fact you can buy it in big sticks, cut it with a chop saw and really create custom stuff with it.
I have a thousand dollars worth of that 80-20 stuff in my garage. It was for the Sprinter final build. I'm still on my temporary plywood setup going on 6 years. I give new meaning to "procrastination"
why don't we wait a few more days?
Maybe next week
Ive done a couple for folks, it’s actually easier than installing a window in a house. Layout is key and getting the cut as close to a good fit as possible before scuffing and sealing it. I prefer the sandwich type rather than the drop in and dual pane is a must.
Been doing research to update the MS-DOS era engine and chassis management software on my coach and found blue fire

with the use of a tablet it allows way more features, tech and modernization with a purchase of the Bluetooth diagnostic adapter and the free app download. Seems it works on tons of rigs.

Most I know have a solar panel or three up there...which leads me to the next question, are there see-through glass solar panels yet?
Think about that for a second. The whole purpose of a solar panel is to capture photons and turn them into electricity. If you can see through it photons are passing through so what would that do to the panels efficiency profile?
i figured out the solution, cameras, with the underside of the panel being an lcd screen or something.
See through solar isn't an entirely absurd idea, just probably too expensive for a Sprinter build at this point
Transparent Solar Panels: Reforming Future Energy Supply
Transparent solar panels are regarded as the “wave of the future” for new solar technologies. Ubiquitous Energy and Physee are 2 pioneers.

The best panels are still only <30% efficient, the photons don’t ‘turn into’ electrons, and... never mind.

Awesomely Weird Alibaba EV of the week: A $4,800 electric RV, with a small catch
It’s the classic American road trip: loading up the family in an RV and hitting the open road. Driving from sunrise to sunset as the miles and the sights pass by your window, your travel partner smiling in the passenger seat. But imagine if you could trade those gas fill-ups along the way for the…

Quick little break-in weekend in the coach, Was able to De-winterize and run all the systems. First time I have ever had a dishwasher in an RV and have to say I am not going back. The washer and dryer unit is going to be upgraded from the combo unit to a stackable set soon and am currently sourcing airplay TV's and updating the interior and exterior sound systems.
