Continuity is good on all conductors through the adapters. The single hot 30A connects to both hots on the 50A recep. I always wondered how that worked, I guess it's just split inside the adapter.

Portable quiet gen, uses the shore power input. My buddy just told me to check the big fuses under the hood. He had a 50A burned out and wouldn't charge his rig battery either.

The material above the door track seems to be ⅛" fiberboard (could you get any cheaper?) and is way too light for that load. There doesn't seem to be any substructure there to run screws into. I'm...

Custom made tank

I had researched a lot. The replacement under-body tanks are quite large for Ford & Ram but not very big for GM trucks. It would be $1500 to $1800 to move from my 26 gal stock to a 36 gallon...

I think I've got you all beat--in a bad way. I have a 2006 Duramax with the original 18 gal tank. Yup, 18 gal. I've run it down to fumes and never put more than 17.6 in it. I'm lucky to get 150 miles...
