I've slept in Boy Scout open floor tents, I've slept under Army poncho half tents, I've slept in mud holes and sand pits. I've walked 800-1000 miles of the Appalachian trail with a nylon tarp, blue Navy wool blanket, and hammock. We have had family size tents, to a pop-up, 24' Shasta, 32'Carrilite, 38' Carrilite and now our Mobile Suites. So call it what you want, don't criticize others ways of being outside and enjoying their definition of nature.Re: Owners Manual-CarriLite M-529RKS whenry wrote: Hello all!! I need the owner's manual for our old camper that we're fixing up........I have looked EVERYWHERE online. Please help!!! You probably won't be able to find one. We had a 1996 32RKS for years. All the appliances are generic from 1 brand to another. The rest of the RV is pretty easy. I can answer most of your plumbing or electrical questions if you want. Send me a PM with an e-mail address and I'll send you a message.Re: Custom RV'ing Rig IdeaGo to- The http://www.rvnetwork.com/ and the HDT area for your basics. Next is a company called SpaceCraft RV- http://spacecraftmfg.com/ Lastly, all this does cost money. A decent truck stretched to your idea, that is reliable, will be 150's+, the Space Craft is 200K plus. Look here as well https://www.racingjunk.com/ for Toterhomes. There might be a truck already set to meet your needs.Re: If money was not a issueSince we have the IS suspension, Disc Brakes, 17.5 tires etc on our Mobile Suites, we would go for heated floors, Lithium Batteries, about 2500 watts of solar, and split system heat pumps.Re: If you could design an RV...There is a custom builder called Space Craft RV. They build towables but might build a drivable. Most of their recent builds incorporate LG Mini Split heat and air units, heated floors, normal size appliances, etc. Several I know of run off battery entirely. 4-4k Magnum inverters pulling off of a variety of battery sources. Either Volt batteries, Telsa, or a company called Volta. Entirely custom builds. Your wife want a large tub? Done. Nothing but solar on the roof? Done. Heated floors, silent mini split temp controls? Easy. Tired of sweeping and vacuuming and want a Roomba? Simple with toe kick storage garage of course. All tablet operated? Easy Peasy. BUT... Bring your check book. They are on FB with recent builds.Re: Under body rust on a Brand New 5th Wheel?Ours was delivered in the winter as well. I've wire brushed and painted all the metal I can with Rustoleum Rust Reformer and then a black enamel.Re: Anybody Towing A Wide Body 5th Wheel With Short Bed?I towed a Carrilite 102"wide body with a Megacab Dodge. Had a Pullrite Superglide. Combo worked great for turns, but the truck was maxed out on weights.Re: air safe hitchI know of several being used in the HDT world. The Binkley head is a proven design if maintained. The plate and suspension work great.
