What exactly can you do to that motor to improve it, also what truck are you putting it in? I like the new 6.7 but curious what you do

Yea, we actually have a little plastic shoe rack we put outside for our Crocs when we go to the shower house. But when we take our tennis shoes off, we want to keep them inside to keep critters out and to stay dry. Just the 2 of us(most of the time) but since we take them off at the door, it gets to be a little much.

I'll figure something out. She won't be happy anyway. But I'll be!

More Like What Happened to My Camper Today!

On our way home from MN, while driving south on I-35 through IA, we drove through approx 15 mi of single lane marked off with orange cones which were placed off the center line on our side of the road -- not straight, but staggered. It required some serious negotiating and we ended up straddling the rumble strip and shoulder. The vehicle ahead of us hit two cones which flew back and struck the generator door bending the exhaust pipe about 20-degrees. The second cone messed up the trim on the generator door molding. Arghhh!!

I just pulled up different pictures on the internet and there are a couple more the same way. Like I said I just bought mine used. So I didn't know if it was a repair or not
