So what did you do to your Truck Camper today?

Purchased some organization nets to use as shoe storage under the dinette. I'll post up pics when I install them.

Welcome to my world on that! I can empathize with you!

You couldn't do that with manual Carefree awning - There was not enough room between the rear wall and vertical supports like your powered awning. I did clock my front jack motors inboard so they actually sat under the cab over.

Not really today, but last fall I "adjusted" the motor position on the jacks on my Arctic Fox. Before they were hanging out in the rain.



you can see there is around 1/4" of clearance between motor head and awning.


before the rain gutters dripped direct on motors. now the motors are more protected under small rear over hang, but wind driven rain still gets on them.

Also call me anal, but I bought a small can of Rust Oleum clear paint and a brush. I used this to coat every bolt, washer and fitting that was undercoated hardware. As you can see 4 months outdoors and they sill are shiny silver :)

Went with a much smaller table to open things up. It's a 24" pine table, stained. Original table was HUGE and was hard to scoot to the back and kick my feet up. Just 2 of us, like the openess so far.

Nice Job on table! Really opens it up on our model! Will do this mod soon. Thanks for sharing.

Looks GREAT. Thanks. Now I have another project. ;)



My camper is 20 years old and some of the plastic is starting to yellow.



Thanks to who ever it was who suggested the Krylon Fusion for Plastic Satin Dover White Plastic Paint. :)

Nice looking table! I made a smaller one for mine, but it's a half round due to my dinette type.

Thanks. Yeah, I can just walk up and crash backwards into my corner pillow and kick my feet up now without scoochin 3 or 4 times. Most of the time I would just sit on the edge wishing this huge table was smaller! It's not as tall either, first trip next weekend, we'll see. It's sturdy and will hold my beer...
