Got the fugly CargoHitchBox off and rehomed, changed wiper blades, ran backup/dash cam wiring, gotten some things organized, moved some of my camping gear, got the comm system linked to my phine (bluetooth stereo.. ) working on seat covers, mirror tint added to the upper windows, nook and cranny utilization, and other general movinginnery. Big Grin

Really looking forward to troubleshooting the water pump and going on our first camping trip.

LOL. Wishful thinking, RVP.

Decided to completely rewire backup cam.... down the other side. Ugh. But it is run, spliced into backup wire, and routed up to the top shroud. Shows a decent field of behind the van. Smile
Also ran it in such a way that I can replace the camera if the wiring/plug is the same.

Got some of the Professional grade mirror mount stuff. TX is hell on glass mounts... Replaced powered mirror with cheap/light one. May also help. Also need to reattach the window casement glass-mount runners, on the rear windows, so I have plenty of good adhesive.

Got replacement glide tape, and will fab a side door curtain soon. Did some other little fiddly things..

At this point, it was 90 with stupid humidity, so dogs and I melted into the house for a while to cool off.

I wired my backup camera into the running light circuit at the taillight instead. This way I can look out the back for tailgators that have snuck up on me and easily tell if I have passed someone completely. I just run with my parking lights on all the time so the camera always works.

Mine has a selection option for front, rear, or dual view. And it has the impact-record feature. For accident insurance stuff.

I just run an ordinary dashcam for the front that does the same thing. GPS speed, location, etc. A video is worth a lot more than cursing afterwards because the other guy lied.

Yep
I have learned to love the recording front/rear cams

Also handy for still pics when driving

Soooo I have a few sewer bits showing up this week, and have a fresh spandy new dump hose onboard.
Got the plates on, finally (Stealership was so cheap, they even kept the license plate screws... *eyeroll* )
Going in for a tranny service this morning. Fluid is considerably less pink than I like-- but shifting is smooth and predictable, so I am not Too concerned.

Got rid of the ewwwy corroded tp holder and replaced, literally, with a new one. In a completely different spot. Shall see how that works out.

Going to try for a quick overnight at a local rv park this coming weekend. (Test stuff for reals and dump tanks of whatever they may hold.....)
