And Kyle Busch whines again because he didn't win. Never mind he got ANOTHER top 10 finish. If this new setup is so bad, how did Truex and Bowman come from the back and finish first and second, Kyle?

2001 Kiwi 17A.
Bought it 5 years ago. It sat unused for quite a few years so it's still in pretty good shape. Have done lots of mods.

My 2001 17A uses that one. I got lucky when I bought the trailer and there were two. I saved one for a hand crank and cut the other for my cordless drill.

We've camped in bear country with ours in California (Sierras) and were never told that we couldn't. We just make sure we use the bear lockers to keep our extra food in.

Mattresses

This has probably been addressed before, but does anyone have any suggestions for mattress replacement on an older unit like our 2001 Kiwi 17a?
Thanks for any and all advice.
