So what did you do to your Truck Camper today?

Did the AC/digital thermostat mod so that the digital thermostat can now control the Air Conditioner. Keeps the temperature more constant than the knob thermostat on the AC. Hardest part is neatly routing the wires.

I think I may have passed you the day you picked that TC up on US 32 in Ohio. You could confirm that theory if you bought it in March/April 2015 from Mike Jones Motors in Hamersville, Ohio.

Was not me.

I need to learn how to do that.

Returned from 4 days fishing from my kayak on the ocean at Albion, CA and now getting ready to head up to the mountains with the whole family for another 4 days of camping in the mountains.

Washed bugs, scrubbed bugs, washed bugs, scrubbed bugs ... yep, still a few left.

The produce called Super Clean works great. You can find it in any auto store.

Did the first gross decon of the TC post trip. In other words two hours with hot water, dawn dish soap and a scrub brush to remove 90% of the millions of dead bug carcasses embedded on it from 9 days on the road. Tonight I will use goo off to try and get the rest of the bug bits then clean the skin with denatured alcohol. A new coat of wax seems to be looming on the horizon.

My Northern-Lite needed some TLC. I machine buffed and waxed it Sunday. Took 3.5 hours and results were excellent.

Wax and machine used:
