Then in the ceiling of my garage, I put up 4 eye bolts. I lift the canopy off the truck with 4 rachet type tie downs - placing one on each corner of the Yakima rack. It hangs from the ceiling until ready for reinstalling. Then I simply lower it one corner at a time onto the truck. I have done it this way for years with no adverse effects.Re: Tuner for towing on a 7.3L Powerstroke Kevin O. wrote: Thanks for all the info! I think I'm going to get the Edge Evolution. It comes with a temp sensor for the exhaust and mounts right on the dash so i can keep an eye on everything. Is anyone using this?? I have the Edge Evolution along with the AIS intake and a Walker big truck muffler and am very happy with it.Re: Lance bumper stepI had a 2002 Lance 10-10 and a 2012 Lance 1050S and it looked to me that they both had the same step. I would contact Lance and see if you could get one.Re: Icons showing up on my nookI get them also. They appear when you drag them down from the carousel, in my case inadvertently. Try it - just take your finger tip and touch an icon on the carousel and pull it down. Took me a while to figure out why they kept appearing.Re: Rust!! How to deal with it??From someone who has had a painted boat trailer used to launch in salt water - get a galvanized trailer and not worry anymore.Re: Lance or Artic Fox or ???I would be willing to bet that one could find negatives about any camper. I have had two Lance campers and have never had a problem. I have had questions, and have had very good factory support. By the way CAD construction means more than just the design. I may be wrong, but at Lance they use computer guided machines to cut the camper pieces. That's why they no longer use gimp to hide the joints. In addition Lance has reduced the weight of their later model campers. I would decide on the camper that I like from any of the major manufacturers and not look back.Re: quality controlMy 2012 Lance 1050S has been flawless since day one. Everything worked when I got it and still works. No complaints here.Re: Question for Ford 7.3 owners?I echo what some others have said. I installed a Walker Big Truck muffler and the Ford AIS air intake on my 2000 F350. Those alone made the engine spool up much faster. I suggest you do that first. If you want more power, put in a programmer with gages. I put in an Edge and it has made all the difference in the world pulling two different 5th wheels up to 12,000 lbs.Re: 3000W Chinese Gensets Info.I presume you have a 30amp cord. If you do ,the Champion should easily run your A/C. Mine runs my 15K A/C effortlessly.Re: 3000W Chinese Gensets Info.I have already lost power and am typing this on my computer that is being powered by my Champion 3500W RV generator. It is also powering my frig., the TV and the lights. I also used it to cook in the microwave. The Champion is humming away just outside my door. This is the 4th power outage in 3 weeks and the Champion came thru each time.
