@@Stonyboot Yep. It's something that isn't realized by many. Understandable to think high % would be better. But the science of how it kills germs/bac/virus cells makes the 70% ratio apparent. Basically, the higher % alcohol desiccates the cell wall too fast and actually protects the core, keeping it's moisture. Thus allowing it to survive and recover. 70% ratio is the golden ratio. Has enough water to not desiccate the cell wall so fast so the alcohol has time to soak in to the core and actually kill it. I get the 99% in boxes of 500ml bottles. Mix that w/ 210ml distilled water. Much better then the gel hand sanitizers which, these days, are dodgy at best and it's way cheaper and leaves no film on your hands. Good for cleaning too. :)

I’ve looked at them but have some issues with how they work. I need to adjust individual wheel height. I can select 1, 2, 3, or 4 blocks to get my desired leveling. With the ramp style, I’d need to adjust the distance from the tires and gauge height on distance traveled. I think they are a great idea, but I see them mostly for lifting none side of a 1 or 2 wheel trailer. Any advice on using them to level a truck camper?

You need to run your heater hoses inside your camper with a heat exchanger and blower to keep it nice and warm while driving and it works great .

I've seen systems like this, but they would be complex to disconnect. We don't spend enough time in the cold to justify the complexity. However, if I were to build a custom overlanding rig, I'd look at a diesel heater and possibly a heat exchanger for the truck/camper.

When I watched you take the fuel cap off the truck before fueling, I noticed all the dirt that had gotten in around those filler necks. It is amazing that the car companies are selling these vehicles without fuel caps and that you need to purchase one like you did to protect your fuel inlet from letting all that dirt settle in there. These trucks DEMAND super clean fuel. I am just amazed they think none of that dirt will end up in your fuel tank only to cause havoc at some time later down the road. Nice job handling the truck through the slick stuff. I have the same in a single rear wheel and when you have a camper on the back skidding takes on a whole different meaning.

The truck came with a plastic cap, but they are notorious for leaking and letting stuff in. I bought this filler cap on amazon since it has a better seal. I’m disappointed with the quality and style of the filler neck, its plastic and prone to break. So far, it hasn’t, but on a $62k truck, you’d think they would give you an actual cap. The road was actually pretty grippy, the snow had a favorable consistency. If it got nasty, I would have put the chains on. We don’t want to lose control…

Hearing you say filling propane tanks to 4.6 gallons (if i heard correctly) just gave me so much anxiety lol even completely empty we'd never fill them past 4.2 gallons. We've had people get them overfilled in the past like that and it lit their decks on fire cuz they use them for their bbqs. They have an automatic shutoff in them that should never allow them to get to 4.6 gallons. Be careful! My work fills propane tanks (I've been filling tanks for just almost 5 years now) from that same size all the way to the big 100lb tanks (that hold 22 gallons) and over filling is a huge problem. That being your vehicle and your home, I dont want you to go thru something bad with your propane tanks. It could literally catch your whole rig on fire

A 20lb propane tank holds 4.6 gallons of LPG. That is where the OPD will shut off. According to many industry websites: 20 lb Propane Tank Dimensions: 1' 6" in height and 1' in diameter. 20 pound propane tanks are often referred to as grill cylinders and hold 4.6 gallons of propane when full. 4.6 is normal when the tank is empty.

Somedays, I wish I had a 32'-38' 5er, I miss the space! But, for now, we LOVE getting out into the middle of nowhere! I'm sure we will change someday, or get a larger camper with slides. The great thing is that it's fairly easy to change your setup.

@@Stonyboot to keep you from always being on the edge of maxed out weight wise would you move up to a larger truck to haul a heavier camper.

We drove threw Yellowstone and visted Old Faithful and that was about it we were there at prime time and was like down town LA. We went up to Tetons par and camped on a huge lake that was full of cut throat trout and we had the whole place to our selfs. When ever we got a good snow we would jump in our 4x4 pickup and hit all the back roads and try to find people that were stuck in the snow and we did this just for fun we never charged a single dime and it was all for fun, and always a good time. Get your stuff at Jackson Hole and take in the sites and then cruse up to Tetons park on the lake and have moose in your camp and they are huge but stay far away form the cows with a calf she will protect her calves with her life and I’ve seen cows run over the top of bears and send the bears packing !!

I have driven my share of snow packed roads. It looked like a white knuckles down the steep grade.

It was better than expected, I generally don't have any concern driving in the snow. But hauling our house makes it a little riskier. The tires did well and the road had a good crunchy feel. Not something that I want to do daily, but it was better than staying up there with more snow coming.

Jackson hole is the entire valley, the town is Jackson, WY. Great video! Wish I was there with you all.

Forget propane for heating the camper just get a cheap diesel heater and plumb the fuel pump to your diesel tank on the truck!

We don’t spend too much time in the cold, so we’ll keep it stock. But, I’d go that route if I built my own.

Please be careful using your engine brake (or cruise) in any snow or ice, especially on a down grade. Your saving grace is the weight on your rear axle. Please check the manual for warnings. Love a cold camp, I run my 120" sleeper propane heater November and half of December on one 20 lb. tank. Think about an auxiliary engine coolant heater for your Backpack. Nice and warm when you stop. Enjoy!

If the wheels slip, the exhaust break disengages on our truck. The road was pretty grippy and I frequently check the conditions. Also, in a situation like that, I'll run in 4x4 to distribute the engine breaking force front and rear ready to hit neutral if needed. We don't really plan to stay in the cold weather for long, so I don't really want to invest in extra equipment for staying warm. I'll just drive south 😂 ! What kind of truck to you drive?
