Ski RV's, who's sleeping in parking lots?

Fill it half full of water and ice, then go drive around bumpy roads. It’ll scour the inside pretty well.

**powdrhound** · 07-15-2021, 12:29 AM

Put some fabric softener in with the ice, too.

The above 2 posts are good ideas; this will also work:

Baking soda too, or maybe vinegar?

Or just go all out and pour in a couple packs of Mentos, six liters of Coke, and give'r.

I might try this with my truck camper's porta-potti. Of course I will need to move it outdoors and put on a hazmat suit.

Just rig up a system so the next person that lifts the toilet seat drops the mentos into the coke.

Trying to get a GFC build spot right now is insane:

Seller in PM: "Do you want the spot?"

Me: "Yes, I would like to purchase the spot."

Seller: "Actually, I opened it up to a bidding war and sold it to someone else."

So dumb.

There is a tiny competitor to GFC based in Bozeman. Literally half the price.....but also maybe half the quality. My gut says to go with GFC because they are proven and resale is very strong. Eventually I will succumb like Cody did and buy a van.

dude, ya gotta lower yer standards if you want a hook up in a ski town….

The NL is not a bad price. Too bad the view of the sticker is at an angle making the weight is difficult to read. The top 2 are practically in 350/3500 DWR range.

WRG - if you're looking for a cheap slide in, we're selling our S&S. 1999, 8.5' (fits in short bed). It's do-able in a 3/4 ton with airbags / timbrens. Happier in a 1 ton.

It has a bunch of extra insulation that we've added, so it's reasonably comfortable in the winter. Heater (has a new motor), fridge and stove all work great. Fresh water is still winterized, but should work fine (pump in there is new-ish). Bathroom has been converted into a closet, but water heater, toilet and shower are still in there and functional as of the last time we used them. There's a roof box up top as well. Has electric jacks so on/off is relatively easy.

Camper had some leaks last year. Re-sealed most of the roof this spring and I *think* it's good now. But another round of roof sealant wouldn't hurt anything.

Lemme know if you're interested and we can probably land on an agreeable price.

That didn't take long for competition to pop up down the street.
After looking at their site I bet they source something offshore.

Kitchen cabinet got a little pop of color (mostly to cover up some drill holes due to a failed table mounting experiment). And a rug to bring the room together. Won't have running water during ski season but having a sink and built in kitchen storage is dang handy no matter that season.
