I hope the new camper is not rebelling because of it's name! Maybe you need to have a heart to heart with him and see if he has something in mind!!
Best of luck with Peabody!!

It's at GT and Tony is addressing the issues. But Rob saw it and liked what he saw.

Re: Home away from Home, on wheels.
Gee, thanks alot Glenn! You didnt have to do that, its awfull swell of ya!
Really though, thanks theyll look awesome on there.
Raj. I sent it down to GT so Tony could give it a thorough once over, there are some things Im happier than expected with, and others that needed some attention to make it as I wanted it to be. For starters there was a broken alternator braket that was rigged to work. I dont like rigs, so its getting repaired. Among some other things Tony has going on with it, fuel issue, tune up, valve adjustment etc.
When it gets back, I need to address why the 110 outlet in the camper doesnt work, Im hoping it just needs the wiring replaced, romex is cheap... I can deal with no stove... the 110 I need to have in it though. electricity is important for me when Im out "camping". Really though I want to be able to power my laptop, play DVDs, charge my cell, and my portable GPS and my TomTom etc.
