RE: Wiring 4 awg charging wire to upgrade 8 awg factory wire.

Go with an Anderson connector, minimum of 100A though the cost is about the same for a 175A connector. Upgrade to 2 awg and use welding cable as it will be flexible yet resistant to uv and oil. Find a place you can drill one or two holes through the camper exterior to where you want the truck side plug. Let the camper side just dangle with enough slack to where every you plan on solid mounting the truck side. Since my battery is in the back of my Lance 815, I mounted the truck side in my rear bumper and the camper side goes from the battery right out by the tail light. You will want the battery cable to go to a breaker than to the DC-DC charger which will then get hooked up to the battery.

RE: Anyone Cancelling Truck Camper Trips Due to Fuel Prices?

We are still traveling when we can but just taking it slower. Instead of doing a trip in 3 weeks we now take 4 or 5 weeks to cover the same distance. Cost per week works out to be about the same that way.
Also luckily we moved states which means most of the areas we like to go for short trips has been reduced by 300 miles.

RE: Southeast TC Gathering - FALL 2022 ???

I'm game. Columbus Day weekend would be my vote which would help those who still work have an extra day and the weather is usually very nice. At least I won't have a 10 hour drive this time regardless of where you hold it.
