I agree, and I put my soft spot down to the same thing for a while (2011's are built exactly the same). But eventually I bought the moisture meter and realized I had a problem. Worth checking it to...

DW just retired this year, so we are also searching four our 'forever' (ha!) trailer. DW really dislikes the WTB - she wants it in a separate room. I keep explaining that you get a...

If I am reading those photos right, your pump is mounted on a piece of chipboard that is attached to a box with some sort of void. In other words, they have made it into a resonator/loudspeaker. I...

Hard to see as the focus is a bit fuzzy, but that black piece at the end of the motor shaft should accept a tool (blade or hex wrench). Then you sit there and crank, and crank, and crank. Have...

Also, if not using one, add a WDH. Although it doesn't reduce the actual tongue weight it can redistribute weight to the front TV and to the TT axle. This can keep all your axles within the GAWR,...

Was thinking the same thing. A couple of decades ago mega-trailers were a rarity. Now 40' seems to be entry level.

Usually a craft beer drinker; something dark and chewy. None of those fruity IPA hop bombs for me. Current favorite is Dragon's Milk Stout or Ale.

+1 for buying the kit - got ours on Amazon. The instructions were worth the price, and the string is a perfect match. Enough in the kit for a couple of blinds.

I might add that the correct sized 15A extension cords aren't cheap either. I see way too many people using long runs, sometimes plugged together, of cheap 16 ga cords from the home centre.
