“Warning”, don’t watch your slideout being extended

This is his shake down trip and what do you do now!

But it's a Schwintek ... you're supposed to hold the switch down when it's fully extended so the motors stay in sync.

That's just tragic!! DW would have literally passed out!

I guess the headline is true then and why they dropped the name.

How the hell does that even happen?

That thing would be a total loss if it were mine. I'd have the whole thing in pieces as the rage consumed me ....

So much rage would lead me to inaction. I'd probably be stumbling around blubbering like an idiot, wondering why DW won't get up!

And what if someone were sitting at that picnic table?!

ETA: This just caused my heart to skip a few beats! What if my 4YO was sitting at that picnic table?!

What would I have done? I’d prolly had shaken my head in disbelief and then quietly walked over to the cooler for a beer... oh I’d be very upset but I’d be speechless and in need of a beer while I comprehended what had just happen...

Might cause me to have a drink or two.

I guess a call to the dealer, insurance company, and then to the manufacture. Then back to a drink.

Luckily it is a toyhauler, so load up his new spare parts and enjoy the rest of the weekend.

That is a new slide system. It is designed to bring the outdoors inside.

How is that even possible? Jeez

I would only hope the DW was putting it out at the time so I’d have someone to blame

I feel sorry for the guy. What a way to ruin a vacation. No laughing matter.
