The time has come to sell my Hi-lo. We love it but just don’t use it enough to justify keeping it. I pull it with a 1/2 ton pickup and gas mileage only drops 2-3 mpg. Front kitchen/living area. It...

Does this look factory? Why is it there?
From the day I first saw my hi-Lo I was puzzled about this heavy wire coming from the upper cabinet. I asked the dealer selling it “what’s this?” And of course he had no idea. I did later determine...

Oh... and as for the light. I saw the word “Bargman”on the lense so I just went to EBay and typed in Bargman light and found several vendors selling them. Mine was $16.55 with free shipping.
