1st Time out with 27DSRL

For the most part it's a nice TT. But as I get to know it, I also have some major disappointments as well. Here is my biggest......I ordered mine with elect. Stabilizers. This thing feels like an earthquake whenever anyone moves at all. I am even using x chocks with no help. Stabilizers are worthless.
Next, I am your average 6 foot tall and have hit the top of the door with my head a few times. I don't get that.
Then, why would they make it so that the stair light is only on when the awning light is on. You can see the steps perfectly when the awning light is on. When you need the stair light is when no other light is on.
Just a couple issues
Will also say though that there are many things I really am impressed with. Remote control....had this all set up in about ten minutes. The Denver mattress....very comfortable. Lots more but getting too long here.
Still having fun here with it.

I have the 2015 model, we put 4K miles on it last summer and enjoyed every minute. I do agree it rocks a bit with the stabilizers down but it reminds me that I'm on vacation. Enjoy the trailer...

The advantage of manual stabs is you can crank them a little tighter and take a little more movement out of the RV. But it isn't night and day, its more like noon and afternoon.

I finally added the SteadyFast system to ours. The difference is night and day. Its still not as sold as a block house on a cement foundation, but it is so much better.

Look for Winfield stabilizer system. Installed it because no drilling into enclosed underbelly. Really has stabilized the trailer. Also using x chock. Almost rock solid. Factory installed levelers on each corner of the TT alone will NOT take out the bounce.
