37 RV Hacks

Thank you. I really enjoyed this.

My Dad built a set of bunks like that for his 65 chevy van when we moved back to the continental US from Alaska in 68. They were plywood and hung from chains. I slept over the cab, like the one shown here, my sister slept just behind the front seats. Mom & dad slept on a dinette unit Dad made in the back.

We camped from Western Canada to the Dakotas until there was an issue with a defective propane bottle in a portable heater. Mom got burned, the van didn't, but we never camped in it again either.

Interesting, but doesn't look exactly easy to access.

It is nerd talk for a creative solution to a computer problem, a work around. The word is now migrating into other venues meaning 'a solution to a problem'.

I wonder if the flea collars would work to keep the wasps out of the gray/black tank vents if you strapped them on just below the cap?

The trash can looks interesting. I wonder how much weight it can hold. Thanks for the post.

Thos RV hacks are pretty cool, I found a few of them that I am going to do before next season. Thanks fr the tips
