Already took it on three trips this month and love it! Going to Crystal Mtn for Memorial weekend. Possibly hitting Chinook Pass as well.
Pics posted from the last three weeks, so much fun!

Re: Spring and Fall River Camping
I think Lake Mead is in Nevada, a big spring break spot.

Snow and Ice questions
Hi there, new to the forum. Ever since moving to WA, I've envied those who parked their RV in ski resort lots and stayed overnight. It's now time for me to be one of the privileged :D I live in the Seattle area, so the temps normally don't go below freezing very often (storage). The passes can get b...

Re: Careful with your awnings
So you clip the awning to the side of the van while tying down the awning to screws coiled into the ground. Without pics, it's hard to imagine. My van came with an awning, but no side clips on the van. Therefore I'm trying to determine if I need to drill the side clips into the van or just stake dow...

Re: New from WA
Anyone know if there is a company doing 4X4 conversions near the Seattle area? I'm going to use this for skiing at the passes and want to fully winterize this van. Any other suggestions on prepping for snow?
Thx!

Re: SOLD..1991...4x4 with only 55k miles out in Washington S
MAN! This would have been THE perfect vehicle for me, even located in Warshington. Alaskan, do you know where and how much a 4X4 conversion and manual could be done? I plan on skiing a lot with mine and curious if I can get it done locally near Seattle. Also, how do you get TWO Yakima racks on here?...

Re: Opening and closing the awning
I'm curious if people here have permanent clips on the side of the B190 that they hook the arms into or if you stake the arms straight up and down when it's fully extended? My RV never came with clips on the side and the dealer is ordering them. Should I just forego the clip install and just stake t...

Re: Careful with your awnings
What are "screw into the ground tie downs"? My RV never came with clips on the side of the RV and the dealer is ordering them. Should I just forego the Van clips and just stake it straight out? I think I'd rather do that, just curious what others do.

Re: Article: Keeping the tires inflated
Thanks, I'll probably just do that and power it with my Honda 2000 generator.
Do you keep the front inflated at 80 psi too?

Re: Article: Keeping the tires inflated
This is a ton of modding and jumping through hoops. Is there anything out there that will inflate to 80 psi without modding or doing special tricks (ie hooking staight to battery, bringing extra fuses because they will blow, extra hoses, starting pump before hooking up to tire, etc)?

Re: Steering stabilizers....
Just got a price quote on the Safe-T-Plus Steering Stabilizer shock and install kit alone costs $472 and $65. I'm guessing labor is gonna be at least a couple hundred more. I hope this thing is worth it!

Re: New from WA
OK, just ordered a Safe-T-Plus Steering Stabilizer after seeing many recommendations on it. Little pricey and a special order, but it sounds like it's worth it. Also getting the electric windows looked at and the awning plastic piece replaced on the joint. That should happen next week.

Re: New from WA
Nice suggestions, I appreciate it! Yup, been scouring the forum for good ideas. Had my first overnight at Crystal Mtn and everything worked well! Just can't seem to find an open RV dump on Sunday on the drive back, they were all closed. Tire pressure is definitely a factor with sway. Never had tires...
