I suppose it's an option. I've got the land. Camper is likely a bit tall to add a lean to on any of my existing structures.
Time is not plentiful right now. The option of increased taxes due to...

Cover recommendations

Shopping for a cover for my 1999 Designer 2930. Thought I had it narrowed down to an Adco Aquashed or a Camco Ultraguard. But reviews on Amazon vary widely, so now I'm unsure.
Any recommendations...

I think the previous owner had it replaced a few years ago. I'll have to dig through all of the paperwork and find out exactly what I'm working with.

Battery question

1999 Designer 2930. Purchased late in season last year, have not spent a night in it yet.

It would appear that a Sidewinder ST400-SW16K is going to be the answer. Ordered one from etrailer.com to be delivered next week.

Sliding hitch solutions?

I've got a 1999 Designer. Being that old, it's got a Leland AF 7900 pin box. Having a 2016 Ford SuperCrew I've got issues with not being able to make tight turns without the camper nose striking the...

It's not bad right now as far as level. The 5th wheel is at the bottom for adjustment. I can raise the pin box a little more. Will most like just go up one more hole there and I think it'll be very...

Bed clearance

OK, more rookie questions. How much clearance should there be between the top of the truck bed and the camper itself? I towed the camper home with the 5th wheel set where the dealer installed it....

I note that some replacements I see note that they are not for RV use. What voltage should these things be when used in a camper with power converter?

Interior bulbs

What bulb do the interior lights generally take on these campers? I yanked one but there's nothing stamped on it. I thought I'd saved the packaging from NAPA but can't find it.
I ask because I'm...

I'd agree with that statement. All of our use will be relatively local, so we opted for the older one. For our annual Florida vacation we rent a home because we haul 2-4 motorcycles with us.
