Re: A new member from Buckinghamshire
Hi Jamie,
I'm in High Wycombe if you need any help.
Though my 25-year-old American camper might not be very representative of the sort of thing you are looking for.
Just ask away - there are lots of things to learn about demountables, they aren't like your regular motorhome.

Re: Tischer advice and opinions needed
Tischer - Nice. We carry a hose coiled up. Not a flat one, just a regular one. Plus we have many different types of adapters so we can get water from pretty much any tap. We use it a lot to refill the tank when touring. Note that we never demount the camper when on the road so simply drive to the ne...

Re: USA travel
Hi Alex, The trip we did in June 2017 was helping a friend by moving his camper from Tennessee to Washngton State. At other times I have rented a class B or class C camper. In the past it was difficult to rent a truck camper (except for Canada). A few small companies did them. Now Cruise America are...

Re: Photo Bucket?
This is very bad news because many people have hosted pictures for trip reports, rebuild reports, all sorts of things on various forums. On RV.net Photobucket has been the photo-hosting site of choice and members have encouraged each other to use it. What that means is that now lots of threads with ...

Re: 'Cosmic nourishment' well OK then.....
I live in a very similar way, surviving merely on starlight and fresh air. And cake of course, and chocolate, and meat - mustn't forget the meat - but no more than 3 times a day. Plus snacks.

Re: Powerpart Battery Chargers
I also use CTEK - multi-stage intelligent charger with temperature sensor. Worth the money in my opinion.

Re: My Ranger & Suntrekker - Intro / Updates
You have acquired an excellent truck and camper combination there. I love the dropside / flatbed. Decent weight distribution with that lighter camper on the supercab truck. The truck itself has the simpler engine which could be a bonus (I have the later model and I wouldn't like to try to fix much o...

Re: Outdoor shower ideas please
Interesting idea using the spray container - I like the simplicity of that.
What about repurposing the poles from an old gazebo to make a frame for your shower curtain.
