Liked your crappy drivers section. Being a Prius owner, NO ONE likes to follow a Prius. ESP people in trucks, no matter how fast I’m going. Last week a truck flew past me going through a town. I was a couple miles over the posted limit and I knew they regularly sat in that town running radar. It was a glorious moment after he shot by me, went a few blocks down and triggered the speed trap. LOL 😂 Last I saw he was pulled over with some cherries on top.

Were you just leaving in manual mode and 1st gear?
@downbytheriver501Ай бұрын
Yeah. It’s too risky not leaving it in manual when rock crawling. A couple seconds of slippage will cause it to be thrown into neutral.

Do you keep the roof vent open while you are in the camper? A small fan like you have on low circulating the air helps move warm air around and opening the vent allows the warm air to carry out the water vapor. We used to have a northern lite that we winter camped in all the time, we learned you have to heat at a high enough temp in the camper that the hot air can carry the moisture out of the camper vent. A Maxair vent cover is a must so you can use the vent in rain/snow.
@downbytheriver5012 ай бұрын
Yeah it’s been on my list to get a vent cover. Now that I have an amazing off grid solar/battery bank I use a dehumidifier and there’s no more issue!

Do you think the low gear is low enough? Seems like a 33% reduction would suit rock crawling better? What’s your opinion
@downbytheriver5014 ай бұрын
I absolutely think that it should be lower, yes. Frankly, I wish all the gears would be lower in low but I’m not a wizard so I have no idea how the magic inside that aluminum box they call a “DCT” works. Hopefully there’s a remedy to gear it down somehow whether through diff gears, in the transmission itself, or perhaps a set of portals.
