I had a 120v on my last trailer and a 12v on my new one. Operationally I can’t tell a difference aside from the fact the 12vs doesn’t make a sound. It’s quiet. So far works great….and now it’ll fail...

When I had a 321RSTS I kept it in a covered 40’ spot at my storage area with room to spare on both ends. Not much on the back end. I had to squeeze between the back bumper and the wall. If it had a...

Finally got to the bottom of this. I decided to take the dealer out of the equation and take it to an independent RV repair shop. My thought was that if I'm paying someone, they will have some...

I feel terrible for the family.

That being said. Terrible idea to ride in the back. Yes, all the Airstreams we looked at a few months back open to the left so the door could get pulled open if...

It’s really slow. Did it once on my 321RSTS after going straight from dealership to storage. They had left the batteries drained and they were too low to operate the landing legs.

I’ll look into that. We found the same issue in a Tiffin at the RV show. Granted, a person wouldn't/shouldn’t normally get up with the chair extended but if I forget enough times I’ll probably rip...

It’s just the cheap external dog bone style. I went back to the trailer and took that out of the mix. Same results. Electrical stuff baffles me and I’m at least semi intelligent.

None of you must travel the roads I travel. I like 68. Gets me in 10th gear and does well. 65 is best MPG even though it’s just a 3mph difference. I’m always the slowest mover. At these speeds.

I never did anything with the rears. My 2019 Eagle had no adjustment to rear leveling legs. Maybe I’m confused or the 2023 is just different.

You only need to extend the front jacks down a few holes if it’ll need a lot of travel to unhitch and level. The rears you just leave as is and let the leveling system do its thing.
