Ouch!

One of my coworkers lost his siding (another brand) a few years ago about 500 miles from home.

Yikes! I guess that's about all you can do - MacGyver the thing and limp it on back.

That video gives the term "delamination" a whole new perspective!

Ouch! You really did a great job in securing that thing. I have to say that you have a great attitude as well.

The moisture damage depicted in the video isn't of my TT, I ran across the video while surfing U-Tube. But your right, the guy sure did maintain his cool throughout the process.

We had a 1997 Terry camper that lost it's siding on the way home from a 5 year storage at Myrtle Beach. Thank goodness I had some cargo pit tape!

My last trailer (Keystone) the wall fell off going down the highway... The wall was attached to the floor with the same screws used to hold the wheel well trim on in my Jayco..
