I just bought this camper a couple weeks ago and right away took a week trip to Lake Oroville and Browns valley. 

From this trip I learned my fridge sucks and will not get cool enough. So I pulled it 

out and made more storage.  It holds my flat screen TV, fan and other large

items I can't safety store under the couches, because they are full too.

I will add foam or something to keep the Tv from moving.

I am taking off to Bodega Bay soon and will see if any other mods are needed ASAP

I did add an A/C to my er window and it was nice to have while in Nor. Cal

This is a great site with lots of info. keep the mods coming with pics

Thanks

Hi Kidd!  Welcome to the forum and congrats on the camper.  You will like it!  No surprise on the fridge.  Every older (90's) 3-Way propane fridge I have owned (3 now) have just never worked right.  My suggestion is get a new one.  Other than that just keep on tinkering with the camper and fixing it up your way.

 

I also have a 90 Hawk.  I did a very extensive "remodel" and documented it well.  The link is in my sig.

 

Good luck and get some pictures up here of the setup!   :D

KIDD,

You have to reduce the electronic size of the pics as you are limited to a certain number of mega-bytes as follows: 

 

Assuming you are using a windows based computer (NOT Apple).

 

How to resize your photograph by percent

1. Right click on the image and select ‘Edit’. (This should bring up Windows Paint.)
2. On the menu bar at the top, select Image -> Stretch/Skew…
3. Change the percentages in the Stretch box for both Vertical and Horizontal. Make them both the same or else the picture will not be proportionate.
4. Save the file (you may want to ‘Save As’ to a different file so you don’t overwrite the original.)

 

Change the percentage from 100% to 28% then upload them to the website.
