    From sticks@21:1/5 to All on Tue Sep 17 17:24:00 2024
    I decided against putting in the extra 30 gallon water tank, and instead
    opted for four 6 gallon jugs, and the one 7 gallon I already had to give
    me a total of 31 gallons we can easily take now. They all fit nicely
    under part of a couch area and are going to be inside the slide out area
    and not putting extra weight outside the frame once extended. That
    gives me a total of 61 gallons and I would think that should be plenty
    for going off grid for a while.

    I didn't want to install my wiring harness until I got the parts for the baseplate so I didn't have to take the skid plate off twice. But, I'm
    going crazy waiting and going over and over it. I think I will just
    start at the back and route the wires up into the engine compartment and
    leave them coiled up in there until I get the baseplate. At least I can
    get the tail light diodes all installed and checked and have one less
    thing to do later.

    I called them today and the ship date is still far. Scheduled to ship
    on 10/17. Wiring goes in next week.
