If you are plugged into shore power, try hitting the red reset button in the outlet on the wall next to the bathroom sink. Sometimes that will pop, and then you'll lose your 12v items. See if that...

Both of our Jaycos have had that mounting bar, and it was intended for a grill. I'd never put a grill there, especially considering it's also under the awning. Mildew stains are bad enough. I can't...

We have a 12.5 BTU Coleman Mach a/c in our hybrid. You turn it off and on at the a/c unit (there is no wall thermostat to control it) and our a/c is not ducted. When we bought our 2017 23B, we...

Ours cracked exactly like yours. It started at the screw, which apparently had been over-tightened. We only noticed it because we saw droplets of water in our shower and we had not used water. We...

I like having a source of hot water on the outside of the camper. It's great for a quick rinse to get the sand off when beach camping. We set up an outside shower stall one year, but I never had...

I was thinking the same thing. Lexan sounds good, but it's expensive. Clear vinyl would be cheaper, lighter and easy to store. I don't mind the distortion as long as I can keep the rain out, and...
