Airstream, Travel Hell

T-Minus 32 Hours

January 20th, 2009

We head west at 8am on Thursday.  The Airstream is mostly packed and ready, though there is still some last-minute work to do on the truck — hooking up the CB, dog barrier, loading the motorcycle, etc.

More updates from the road.

Airstream Purchased!

January 14th, 2009

I picked up my new living quarters today — 2006 Airstream International CCD 28.  

Sadly, the next two days are ridiculously cold (10 degrees or something ridiculous?), and I plan on heading west on Saturday.  Going to be an interesting time packing.

Misc

- The F90BT nav is not intuitive.  Garmin interface is way better.
- Diesel Kleen’s antigel additive seems to make quite a difference in cold weather starting, even though the for manual says it doesn’t need it
- The F90BT’s bluetooth adaptoid seems to work well, although the fact that you can’t adjust the volume with the volume knob is completely asinine.  (it has to be adjusted with on-screen controls that are just too small)
