@bigtruckbigtravels
Жыл бұрын
Hey Ron- Great question and thank you. We have been pleased with ours so far. We purchased it for several reasons : 1) 4x4, 2) under $200K, 3) built on F550 chassis with 6.7L diesel engine, 4) best layout in under 36 feet. We had concerns about a Thor product but the quality has been ok. We had to modify the plumbing a little from a bad design and a 25 item punch list which the dealer handled prior to pickup. Since being on our trip the only item which I had to address was the dinette slide had some rivets popping out on a bracket which made the slide operate a little "wonky". I fixed it with several lag screws and it works great. Now, it's an RV and made with some cheap materials but it's what we expected and operating great. Overall, we've been pleased with the unit. Hope that helps. The biggest advantage you have as a buyer is to purchase from a great dealer. The RV manufacturers depend on their dealers to fix a lot of items out of production. A good quality dealer makes all the difference.

So, I had the crackers and cheese for the 1st half or so and munched out to some more fabulous scenery (really liked the Horseshoe Lake area) once again! But I've got to hand it to you for leaving the Jeep all by its lonesome. Don't know if I could have done that, honestly. Too much of a worry wart with my vehicles, but that's just me. Can only RV stand alone vehicles go to Tek? They don't allow people without RV's in there closer to the park? What? Maybe I missed that part between crackers, lol. I would think one of you could have driven it independently to another parking destination to be close by so you could use it and not have to move the RV. Oh well, you did what you had to do to have "your" experience. Those extra stickers, a new edition brochure and a Grizzly siting must have made up for it! #37👍

Hey Bob, it's a F550 4x4 with the 6.7L diesel. Lots of power!

Is it safe to tow your jeep like that,..I think one of you should drive it.. And, are you telling me it's less than an hour to midnight ?

Hi Olik- it is safe to tow the Jeep in this fashion. We have 3 levels of safety equipment. The tow bars, the cables hooked to the Jeep and a "breakaway" cable which actuates the Jeep brakes if it should break free. Yes, we were 1 hour away from midnight. Pretty wild.

So how did you manage to snag a reservation at TEK?

Wasn’t that hard, I was able to get three nights in July on May 3rd, there were plenty of options. I think the road being closed around mile 42 has made it easier to get into TEK this summer.

@@katleman thank you. I am not a planner so I was a little nervous about trying as I have heard that it was incredibly difficult. You have given me hope lol. I was in Dinali once as part of a cruise trip. Unfortunately, the train arrived after all the excursions had left and we left early in the morning before we could do anything but it sure was a beautiful trip. I have always wanted to go back and photograph. Although I am convinced that the department of tourism is making up the wild animals as well I was ever able to get where the rear ends of animals and then includes an eagle, a fish, a porcupine, and a Moose . Oh and Dahl sheep rear ends. It has now become the family joke.

Hey Flyby, I love your reference to the year's worth of food cache when the miners traveled up Chilkoot trail for the gold rush. They don't allow "non camping" vehicles inside the park. Trailers or motorhomes are ok but not towed vehicles. They want to minimize any traffic inside the park.

LOL, Kris, actually, Sondra wants to run into a bear! In Yellowstone a few years back, we were hiking and did run into a bear. We kept our distance and let him know we were there but Sondra was taking pictures like crazy! We normally carry bear spray and use sensible bear safety hiking techniques...like being noisy!
