Re: Bed-Maid Sleeping Set
We have used a queen size Travasak since the late 80s which I imagine is similar to a Bed Maid. Unfortunately, Travasak is out of business they are no longer available. The Travasak has a summer side and a winter side with real sheets inside attached with Velcro and are easily removable and washable. It's a no hassle way to make up the bed in the overhead bedroom of a truck camper. My wife hasn't struggled with bed making in a camper in nearly 30 years. Bill

Re: Torklift battery box initial review
I installed mine late last week after returning from an 850 mile excursion with my 1985. I agree with your review 100%, including the part that "I'm very happy with it". I like it because everything goes into the box and there is plenty of room, and it only needs one function to unlock it versus undoing the box straps. I purchased the box designed for two six volt batteries even though I'm running two group 24's. I also replaced the locks (plural because I also own the propane lock system,...

Re: Northern CA LOA rally - 1/17/14 to 1/19/14 (1/20 for some)
Had a nice, relaxing trip up to Collins Lake this weekend. The lake level was down and the weather was cool but the DW limited out on trout (as usual)! Met up with Loanshark and friends (really nice folks). Compared notes on our Lance trailers and overall had a very relaxing weekend. Truly wish we could make it to the Northern CA LAO rally in January but, due to prior commitments, we won't be able to. Did see one other Lance TC at Collins and a couple on the road on the way home.

Re: Bed-Maid Sleeping Set
We just won a BedMaid at the RITV. It's great. We were struggling to keep our comforter on the bed but now the Bed Maid stays in place. I'm going to make up a second set of sheets for it. Thank you. Thank you Rally in the Valley 2015!

I think Lance parts department sells Bed Maid. I know Holiday RV in Poncha Springs CO sells them. They are great.

Sounds good John! Looking forward to meeting Clare as well. I'm not sure, but I think WoodGlue (4 nights) might be arriving on Thursday as well. That or a Tuesday departure. I have added your info. to the first post in the main rally thread. Thanks for the s'mores as well as the offer to reserve sites for the other non-reserved attendees! I will also cut-n-paste your post to the main rally thread which is here: https://community.lanceowners.org/top...y-1-17-14-to-1-19-14 *This is the "rally...

Here's another late addition Jeff. Originally thought we weren't going to be able to make it but we rescheduled some things and would love to attend if it's OK? We plan to arrive Friday (before dark and hopefully get a spot) and Depart Sunday morning. We'll bring some deserts for the potluck and Alice and I will be accompanied by our long haired Chihuahua, Sarah Marie. This really sounds like a lot of fun and we're looking forward to meeting everybody and checking out all the other Lances.

Re: Good Sam RV GPS
We've been using the Good Sam GPS for over a month now. Haven't used it yet for an RV trip (not before April of this year), but we did take it with us to Atlanta, GA over Christmas. So far, we're very pleased with it. We've been configuring it for the points of interest (gas stations, restaurants, etc.) we want it to display while we're on the road. We've used the wi-fi feature to connect through my cell phone and get real-time weather reports and forecasts, which is nice. We've also used...

Re: 2014 Pismo Beach Rally - 4/3/2014 - 4/8/2014
Hi Engunir, The rally will probably only have Lance owners and anyone else who is interested in Lance are always welcome to stop by or camp with us! We don't have any vendors scheduled, but they're always welcome. Our knowledge base is pretty experienced, so if you or any attendees have any questions we are always there to answer any questions. To date, we have a whale watching trip planned and then there are always wine tasting trips, potluck dinners and such. We also plan on driving at...

This is very new to us. We are so excited and can't wait to get our trips going. We live up in Sonoma county (wine country) so there are many great camping site with in 1-2 hrs from out home. Looking forward meeting new people and learning all we can about RV camping.

Going to try to make it. I have to wait and see if I can take the time off work and the same goes with Janeen. It's on our books and It would be a great way for us to learn about RV camping ( we are brand new to this)

Re: 2014 Pismo Beach Rally - 4/3/2014 - 4/8/2014
Hi being new I was wondering if we could have a LOA get together further north? I don't want to be a bummer but driving 600 miles and staying 3 days seems crazy. There are many beautiful rv parks in northern Ca. there is Bodega Bay (the birds) and petaluma KOA near the wine country and 30 min from San Fransisco and Casini ranch on the russian river by Jenner and the rugged sonoma coastline. just a thought, I know there are plenty of Lance owners in northern CA. I am not knocking Pismo Beach...
