    A few favorites so far from 2016

    Just spent 4 days at the Overland Expo West in Flagstaff, AZ - talk about some sexy RV's!  These fun folks often spend well into six figures on their rigs (several of them starting at $500k and up) and are pretty much never seen in RV campgrounds.  Many have been traveling the globe for years...

    Thanks, the desert is beautiful but it's tearing up our respiratory systems :(

    What kind of camera

    If you're interested in the rugged option, this might get you started: http://thewirecutter.com/reviews/best-waterproof-camera/ Another bonus for these cameras - you can just hand them to kids :)  Who knows, they might get some neat shots while they're having fun with your gadget, at no stress...

    What kind of camera

    One type of camera that's a lot of fun for travel is the ruggedized and waterproof point and shoot - while the pictures might be about the same quality as a cell phone (which is pretty good these days), the freedom of having a camera with you at all times that you can just knock around, drop in...

    It's pretty high on our list so far of states we might settle in - but we have a lot of traveling still to do and who knows, we might not even end up settling in the US after we're done - we'll see :)

    FORD F-550 6.0L VNT VTG Garrett turbo charger rebuild - international 6.0

    After driving our F550 6.0 PSD for a year now, it's interesting how similar it is in some ways to the previous two VW TDI Jetta diesels (A4's) I've had.  They both have terrible reputations, and both are beloved by people with some mechanical sense who actually know how to take care of them. ...

    Thanks both :)  This is one of those images where I was shocked to see the lcd after the exposure - where the camera reveals things you can't even come close to seeing with the naked eye.

    One from last night - about 3 ? hours after sunset, so this is actually light pollution, not a sunset :) (edit) it's a shame you can't really see the stars very well in this small format; I think they kind of make the image

    Can one RV air conditioner be run off of an inverter?

    It can be done but it's currently VERY unusual as somewhat covered above. Inefficient standard AC units plus usually limited battery capacity plus usually limited inverter surge and continuous capabilities. I would actually be more interested in an inverter upgrade that would allow my large...

    OK, I checked on my iPad and I do have to scroll, so there I guess the 1024 pixel images are too large for this forum's software - that would be annoying. I'm just wondering if folks other than Tom have the same issue.  1024 and less than 350k already seems extremely low quality to me which is...
