So what did you do to your Truck Camper today?

[Mello_Mike]

I saw these threads in some of the other Open Roads RV Forums, but didn't see one for TCs.

I'll start...

I installed Interior LED puck lights and a 12v power outlet.

Mounted and sealed the sat dish, checked the Dicor on the roof for any holes since I just sealed it......storm is coming.

Earlier in this thread I said I was getting my utility trailer ready for a hoped for long mid winter trip to the desert. While I am as slow as a snail here is what I have done so far. This trailer is about 30 years old and I built it strong. About time I renewed it a bit. Sandblasted, primed, and painted, about ready to work on the stake sides. New floor already made and ready to bolt in.

....we sent it to an indoor heated spa for the winter (along with the mint-condition 2004 truck), where it/they won't have to endure 6 months of 800+ LBS of ice buildup on its roof and an onslaught of brutally destructive rodents-- thereby perhaps tripling its/their lifespan (without expending even a single minute in sweat equity nor expensive RV replacement parts) :B

Started sealing the roof up with Dicor, pulled the cargobox off the top, it was cracked and broken. I need to start looking for a replacement.

Installed a Wave 3 heater. Also winterized TC so I can de-winterixe it in 2 weeks. Its such an easy RV to winterize and can do it with 1 gallon of pink.

Lots of plumbing, electrical and insulation... Just posted pics to the Avion Rebuild THREAD.

Sally finished painting the interior so last night I was able to screw all the curtain rails and brassware back to the walls, as well as refitting the edging strips around the roof hatches.

Warshed the truck camper today in prep for a run over to Mammoth Cave National Park.

Finished cleaning it up from a weekend in Kingsville Texas. We went to a long distance casting tournament. Next weekend we will be in San Antonio at the Majestic to listen to our daughter sing. Then we will be getting it ready for our Black Friday camping trip to PINS. It sure is great being able to take your home with you.

Ran the heater to break it in preparing for trip to Big Bend over Thanksgiving. Attempt number two at our maiden voyage!

Insulation, Plumbing more insulation, mounted sink, more insulation, more plumbing, mounted new charger/converter, more insulation, More plumbing. You get the picture. But at 24 outside, a little ceramic heater set less than half keeps the TC above 65 and closer to 70 pretty easily, even with lots of in and out the main door!

Drained and winterized all water lines and drains..cleaned up the inside and outside, added some insulation hoping to get some "cooler" weather camping in before real winter sets in

[mountainkowboy]

Watched it snow, then rain, then snow again on it! Sposed to be nice for the next couple of days, so maybe I can get the rest of the trim back on and the roof sealed.

Today I finally found a few minutes to remove and repair and reinstall my inverter.
I have been battling this issue with my Prosine 2.0 for some time... one of its circuit boards uses edge connectors with a very short engagement and due to the poor design they can easily become dis-connected. When this happens the inverter will continue to operate but it will no longer communicate with the external control panel. (there's a "run without remote panel" setting)
After several rounds of re-seating the board only to have the connector come apart a few months later, I decided to remedy the issue once and for all. So I machined up 3 C-shaped clips from a piece of ABS. These clips tightly grip each connector and keep them firmly seated. The clips cannot fall off since they are retained by the inverter's sheet metal enclosure.
Now that the inverter is happy again, next weekend's project will be installing 3 new Odyssey AGM batteries (100AH ea) in the basement.

Winterized it today. Did it a little early since I am having surgery in a couple of weeks.
