    US Northwest Treasure Valley Overland Expo PNW

    In Boise. On the list to consider. That being said I have found these events do not like my Rockwood 232ESP trailer. While it is going up for-sale, to be replaced with a popup camper on the truck, it is currently what I use. Would like to tie this trip into a few days in the Blues or the...

    Solar Panels For A Popup

    After pondering for a while, opted for a portable setup. This way I can use them without the trailer. 200w 30amp Renogy with all the electronics. Found a number of threads on other groups that indicated I should also plan to replace the factory "18g Solar Ready" wire in the trailer. Another...

    Issues and Modifications On A Rockwood 2019 232ESP

    Ordered an HQST 200W Solar kit. Logic behind this approach is looking to mounting the panels on the factory rack rail for storage, transport and generation. Will make some legs for the panels. Should the location/season dictate I can remove the panels at the current destination and use them...

    Issues and Modifications On A Rockwood 2019 232ESP

    Picked up a 2019 232ESP this weekend. Just started crawling over it. Figured this would be a good place to document my findings/approach so other can be better informed. I would say it is 95% stock in mint condition. I am the 3rd owner. Basic model with no A/C (:sweat::sweat::sweat:) But...
