    Random question - Since there is the new dual delivery rack, will that mean that the cost of shipping of a camper will be cut down now as more can be delivered at one time?

    Intend on picking mine up but was curious

    White Glove Delivery pricing won't change. Our pricing model was based on being able to deliver between 6-8 campers in a run.

    I can't tell the mAh rating on that one. Using 13.2v in the conversion for 7kJ, I am coming up with 95,000mAh which doesn't seem right? The 1,000A jump start rating is pretty stellar though.

    I snagged this one early this year and have enjoyed using it:

    I had been looking for a year or so. The USB-C port kicked me over the edge. It boosted a stranded couple on the first outing. Thankfully, I've only had to use it for charging phones since.

    Just bought one, thanks for the tip.

    At that price, it's a great piece of insurance to just leave in the truck.

    It's DLX son!
    I think he's either about to be, or is a brand new dad. Probably busy installing a Recaro child seat in the Raptor.

    Edit- I mean Brrraptor

    Here's a picture I found when I picked up the camper. For those who want to see black on gray.

    Keep us posted on how that quilt works out, I think that may be a great solution for bedding in the GFC.

    'White Glover' - They're doing a PNW trip. I know that there's another person living in BC headed down for installation as well. And, I know at least one GFC is headed to Portland.

    I too kinda wish they would keep everyone up to date on deliveries. But, I can also see why they wouldn't. There would be a lot of bitching and whining when folks knew that a load was headed in their direction - and they weren't included in that delivery. Once they get caught up a bit I would expect to see more info on delivery status. Of course, by that time I will already have mine so I won't really give a shit. :)

    Well, since he's headed to Portland after B-ham. Seems you're on the way.

    Or you could drive up to B-ham to see one.

    Thanks for the offer. Sadly, our daughters have their Christmas show this weekend.

    Maybe we could organize a meetup sometime? If you don't mind?

    Well I got an email from Ben today. Elise no longer works there....so communications might be better? Don’t know if that’s related or not. Either way he said that Ross is headed to the PNW then Reno then SoCal. Not sure if that’s all the same run or not though.

    He also stated that is the last run of the year. Then Christmas time with families and back to it for the New Year. I know for mine they’re planning either an east coast run or a personal run for me out to Michigan.
