    We liked the webber but you had to buy the stand seperate and it was way more exspensive. Then we found this on sale through Dick's for $40 off and jumped on it.

    I need to pick up a small folding table we found at Walmart and I believe we'll have just about all we need (for now) Later will be a solar panel, extra battery, generator, shower/ pottie stall, shower water system, and a pottie

    So I got a new smoke detector and set it in the camper yesterday afternoon, let's see what happens. It went all afternoon and night until this morning, AC not on, and it never went off:yay:! Small victories! So I decide let's turn on the AC and see what happens. So I turn it on and the fan sounds funny like it's dragging. When I look outside at the unit it's bubbling water out of the condenser. WTF :notsure: The AC unit has a bunch of water in it, we just got an ass load of rain. So I did a little research and figured out drill some drain holes it's not draining. I talked it through with @Cypherian who agreed so a drilling I went. I drilled 2 holes 1 in the bottom and 1 in the lower rt corner of the unit. AC runs better and more quietly than it has and cooled better! Smoke alarm never went off after 6 hours or so of running the AC so I removed the old one and in with the new one! :woot::woot::woot:And this would be why I've been sleeping in it and messing with it everyday working the bugs out. The dealer has been super helpful but some of these small PITA things I figure out on my own or at least after talking it out with people who have more experience
