Just an update - We have used this screen room extensively (including our current 3-night trip) and it is showing absolutely no signs of wear or tear. Still looks new & gets a perfect score from us. *If I had to find a fault it would be the collapsed length. If we need both back seats of the TV then we simply store it on the bed in the TT (we keep the storage/carrying bag clean & off of the ground so the bed stays clean).

Looks good - so glad this thread has resurfaced. How easy is it to put away by one (short) person? And can one (short) person reach up to push up the roof center piece? One other question: how long is the storage bag? Will it fit across the width of the cab back seat of the truck? Or would it have to be stored along the center aisle of the TC during transit? Thanks.

Lee-Ann, In the storage bag, ours measures about 6 feet. It won't lay down flat on your truck's rear seat, but will fit on the floor of your TC.

But now.............. You will really enjoy the clam. Good oversized bag, easy set up, privacy or very open, just a great versatile shelter. We love ours.

We did get our Clam shelter screen tent for Christmas. We have only set it up twice, but with skeeter and fly season upon us, I'm sure we will find plenty of opportunities to use it. It really is quick and easy. We also got a 3 pack of wind screens. The downside is that it is bulky and heavy. (6'6" and 34#, I think) folded up and in the bag.

We have Swagmanrv Horizontal Bike Bag https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017...AS?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf and it works well.. Joe

We've hemmed and hawed for 7 years or so on getting a kayak. Hard shell? Sit-on-top? Inflatable? Transporting? Solo or tandem? ?? We've rented at least 20 kayaks over the years and still couldn't make up our minds. In fact GRUMPA, BMJ, myself, and a few others have gone around and around about the subject here on LOA for 4 or 5 years. GRUMPA & BMJ both bought inflatables - Sea Eagle's (sweet kayaks!) - while we kept languishing over the choices and our needs. Well, we finally decided to...

I purchased one back in December 2017. It arrived damaged in transit with a large dent in the side of the drum. Solo Stove customer service made good and sent me a replacement after I decided not to take their reduced price offer to buy the damaged unit. I opted for a replacement Bonfire. When the replacement arrived I contacted the CSR and requested a RMA # and she said I should just keep it so I now have 2 I've had at least a half dozen fires in the Bonfire and it performs as advertised.

After experiencing my first tire blow out which caused $4500 in damage to my truck, I was in a fairly emotional state and willing to spend some money. During the process of changing to my under inflated spare, I discovered my current tire inflator was inadequate. I went shopping for a better one and decided on the VIAIR 400P Automatic. Automatic meaning it has a pressure switch and shuts itself off after the air hose is pressurized. The unit comes with a coiled air hose, a nice tire inflator...

I've been using this vacuum in my TT for almost a year now. (I'm a full-timer.)  It's light weight, versatile, and, fits underneath the bed. I have two dogs and a 4 x 6 rug in the kitchen area so it's been put to the test.  It's strong enough to pick up the dog fur, but I can still vacuum small area rugs at the door and in the bathroom without them getting sucked up into the vacuum. The handle with vacuum, sans floor attachment, is great for getting the edges...

Found this electric tongue jack cover on Amazon that is really nice! http://a.co/d/hR7cekJ A little more expensive at $39.99 but has windows to see the level, switches and light. Also has trailer chain hook loops and a pouch to put the trailer wire harness into. Can also be locked to the jack with a padlock. Much nicer than a Home Depot bucket and the look of this is much better than the regular plastic vinyl bag that is just stuck on top. They say not to tow with it on, but that is because...

I also added a Tire Plug Kit to my Viair bag. If I have to, I can plug it, then fill up the tire.

Originally Posted by gkas: I also added a Tire Plug Kit to my Viair bag. If I have to, I can plug it, then fill up the tire. Oh yeah. I can't remember the last time I had to put on a spare. Just plug the tire while it's still on your rig, inflate, and go. Pretty standard repair here in Alaska, and for good reason. It works well. A plug kit isn't likely to cost you as much as a single tire repair in a shop, yet it's good for many repairs. Replacement plugs and cement are even cheaper and...

I also have a composting toilet thanks to Kaypee, so far my wife and I love it, me mostly because it is a quick dump into a garbage bag after many days of use. Yes as a beer drinker I do have two urine liquid bottles. Some day we will have to figure the liquid intake/outgoing LOL. I have done mod's on our NH to make it bathroom friendly for a 1995 which are posted on the "resource forum". Our black tank has never used.

On our recent 3-week trip our son from OR joined us for 8 days in and around Lake Tahoe/Truckee flying to & from Reno (great little easy airport by the way!). On the way to the airport for his return flight we stopped at the much-heralded Cabela's store in Verdi, NV. To be honest we were pretty underwhelmed, but we did find one terrific product - a roll-up table - http://www.cabelas.com/product...se.cmd%3FN%3D1104949 27.5" x 47". 13.4 lbs. What sets this one apart from almost every other...

It's all that and a bag of chips! It is compatible with Dish (in HiDef) DirecTV (Standard Def only) and Canada's Bell. Set up is a breeze, just hook up the RG6 cable to the little inlet on the side of the RV, and hook it in a 12v outlet, or do what I did and buy the 12v to 110 converter. Put the satellite dish somewhere you can get a clear view of the southern shy and you're good to go. Inside wiring is easy. If you want Dish Network HDMI, just hook the box into the TV using the extra HDMI...

I bought a Dahon Vigor P9 a year ago and thought it was about time for a review. It's light weight (for a folding bike) at 25 lbs and has 9 gears with a good range. At $800 it is priced halfway between a cheap Camping World bike and a high end Bike Friday. Bike Friday does offer an $850 model, but it is considered a travel bike as opposed to a commuter bike; the difference being a travel bike folds to smaller dimensions but takes longer to fold and may require tools, whereas a commuter takes...

After ther bacon grease cools some, we just pour it into a ziplock bag, use a paper towel to wipe the residual grease from the pan, put that into the bag too, seal it, and place in the trash.

That's for the bears....um I mean birds......

I will, and do cook bacon, when camping (good bacon, as Jacster will agree )....but I will start the day before I leave, and broil about 3 lb and not totally finish it ,and let it cool and wrap it in a paper towel and put it in a bread bag or zip lock bags and keep in the fridge....then when It's time to start the Genny for a battery boost in the morning, I will Micro some ....cost far less(well maybe not) then buying the pre-cooked, and (but) is usually better. once it is all though I will...

Thanks Brubie! So glad to hear from another inflatable kayak owner. The Airis Sport is a terrific choice! I really like their backpack-style carrying bag. https://walkerbay.com/airis-in...latable-kayaks/sport Great shot as well. I should have a few shots of ours resting on a granite boulder at about 8,000' within 2 months. Completely off topic, but right up your alley I believe - one of my podcasts that I regularly listen to is called "Ridiculous History". You might enjoy it. I'm headed out...

Took a few pictures of the inflatable foot rest for the front seat & the extra large pool noodle that I cut for a foot rest for the back seat (fits very snugly right behind the front seat). The deflated front foot rest fits inside of the deflated kayak (along with the deflated seats) and the modified pool noodle foot rest fits inside of the kayak's bag so that neither are floating around to get lost in storage/when not in use.
