Hi, i am new to this forum and sure glad i found it, lots of great information.
Bootsie (wife), Gretchen (schnauzer puppy) and I are the proud owners of a 2014 14DBS.
This fall we will make our third trip to Glacier Park MT.
Our home base is Mississippi.
We have made many modifications to our TT, all for convenience and function.
We love the quality of the LL brand. Every campsite we stop in folks want to take a peek and are always impressed with the all aluminum construction.
i will follow with more details and pictures of our TT.
i hope the link works.
Happy camping!

Welcome aboard, love my 14DBS.
Nice to have you. The Dropbox link worked fine. Nice rig. I'm intrigued by the front installation of the bikes. It that based on a front receiver on the Tundra"
Thanks for the welcome.
Here is the rack we use and the hitch is a front mount from etrailer as well.
I like it because it supports the wheels and seems more secure.

Good to have you aboard Diversteve.
I'm impressed by your list of mods. The minisplit heatpump is particularly interesting --- I don't think anyone else has done that. It would make a great posting if you could share info on that mod.
You may be sorry you posted the list; you may be bugged for details ;)
Such as, what is the mini split inverter AC system? Brand/model/installation/operation?
Installed a 12000 BTU mini split AC on my 2014 14DBS
The unit is a heat pump (provides heat and air conditioning)
Works fantastic in the sometimes oppressive heat here in the deep South.
Inverter technology, means the unit will only use the power required to match the load demand, very low current draw both starting and running.
Pictures of the installation.

Very nice looking rig and tv. Welcome to the list. It looks like you may provide more answers than questions. That is a good thing. Glacier is a great place and you are going at a great time of year. Bring your camera.
