A year of serious upgrades for us. Neither Brand new but sure close enough for us and look great together.



Had the camper roof redone with a reflective coating. Lifetime warranty. No more rubber membrane garbage. Splurged and had the slides done too, we have no plans to get rid of this camper anytime soon. $6700 all in for those wondering, slides were $350 each.

Syl and I are on the road to Idaho again for 50-60 days. This is our 5th year with this setup covering 5-6k miles up and back. 2014 Tundra 5.7L and the Jayco is a 212qbw. No slides, our 168 sq ft rolling doghouse weighs 4200 lbs dry, so it pulls pretty well out west. The itinerary includes my 50 year class reunion, Braun Brothers Reunion musicfest, and a backcountry elk hunt. I will update our journey on this thread.

Very nice! Where did you have this done? What is the manufacturer's name? Is it a hard surface?

It’s essentially truck bedliner. Their latest product that we chose claims to reflect 80% of the suns heat back. It is kind of a shiny silver. Feels like thick bedliner, not really a hard surface.

That’s exactly why mine went there. FWIW progressive paid me $5500 for the roof and awning canvas. Appraised at $6500 but I have a $1k deductible.

Will do. I’m interested to see.

We made it to Douglas Wyoming in 2 long days, then stayed 2 nights at the KOA to let the mature bodies recover. We visited Fort Fetterman, the railroad car museum, and a few local sites.

You will like the coe parks. Most of their pads are pretty level. State park pads can be way off, so I carry a lot of 4x4 blocks. At least a milk crate full. Also carry some 2x8s for putting under the tires, for leveling side to side.

Yup, I stayed at DeGray lake outside Arkadelphia. Nice lake and campground.

I've got their FB page saved as I would love to do this with my camper. I'll be curious to see how it does, and how it holds up over time.
