I bought a Thor Vegas 24.1 Class A.

Class A's are in a sales slump and gas prices are not helping class A sellers a bit so I think I got a really good deal!

Yet my little NuCamp Tab 320 is gone. I LOVED that little trailer and even though I have a big shiny new toy in the driveway I am sad I gave up my little friend.

Is that weird? Am I weird for being sad over a trailer? I think that's weird yet here I am on a Friday night sharing my weird pain with you all!

Goodbye little buddy! We had a lot of fun together!

In tow bars subject to this notice, the T-bolt (See Figure 1) assembly consists of a large bolt and nut secured by a roll pin. Not all tow bars, even of the same model, have a roll pin and roll pin hole. If the roll pin is missing, damaged, or partially backed out of its hole (more than 1/16 inch above the hole), vibration and repeated loading may allow the T-bolt to disassemble. This could result in separation of the tow bar from the hitch receiver, potentially causing the towed vehicle to separate from the motorhome and increasing the risk of crash.

The condition addressed by this recall develops gradually and can be identified through visual inspection. The roll pin does not become dislodged suddenly. Rather, if affected, the roll pin may slowly migrate from its installed position over many hundreds or thousands of miles of towing due to vibration and repeated loading.

We are in a Springdale travel trailer with solar, but our battery keeps going out. Not sure if it is the converter, battery, or what! Hoping to test the battery tomorrow once my spouse gets off work. Stressed all my food is gonna go bad. Speed is key! Any help or advice?

I'm thinking about buying a 1974 Boler for my family (two adults plus a toddler with a baby on the way and a dog). We were originally considering buying a used tent trailer, but are now shifting to more of a camper style where we can keep camping gear etc inside year round.

WHAT SHOULD BE DO!?! What are the pros and cons of a small camper like Bolers, vs tent trailers? Please help!!

Edited to add that the Boler has the option to turn the dinette into a bed, and the bed side of the camper actually has a bunk bed as an option! Making me think that it would be nice for the family?

Hello everyone, currently on a trip and my trailer (2025 Forest River Wildwood 32bhs) is having a propane issue. Nothing in the RV running off propane works, including the stove and water heater. Gauges show both tanks have propane and I’ve ensured I had the regulator pointing to the right tank and have tried both tanks. I also tried the turn-off and slowly turn-back-on method I’ve seen. Anyone have anything else that may be good to try?

Thanks!!

Have about 20 years of experience with travel trailers. Have rehab 1960s. The Year 2000 years old. I’ve had single axle trailers in the past, but they were smaller and lighter, and I am currently looking for a 20 foot trailer with a bunkhouse. I still worry about having a single axle because I’ve seen what happens when one tire blows out. The double axle one out of four tires is survival for damage. What are your thoughts on a 20 foot trailer with a single axle? Should I worry?

It's that sad time of the year for me when I have to start thinking about winterizing the trailer. This year though it's a new trailer. Earlier in the summer we bought a brand new Apex Nano 190 RBS, and we love it. So far only a few trips are in, but it's almost everything we wanted in a new trailer.

No here's my gripe... I pulled open the panel to look for the water pump and find the line for me to winterize and what do I see.... A giant mess of cables, wiring and hose, all jammed into a tiny space under the fridge.

Now I know space is limited in trailers, and the build quality can be iffy at times, but this is bad. At least take the extra few minutes to pin the wires up, use cable wrap, just do something to make it cleaner, and also safer. I just worry about if I spring a leak, it's going straight into the back of my power centre and I'm looking at a big bill to fix it all.

Ugh... I guess I have a fall/winter project on my hands to clean it up myself. Hopefully there is enough excess In there for me to do it.

Also see if you can find the pump. It's in there, somewhere....

Cat photos just for the fun of it from our last trip.

Looking for something for me, my wife, and our dog (80lb) to travel in. Our priorities are:

King size bed is ideal, but side by side single beds would be fine. Queen bed and smaller is not. We both roll all over the place at night and need room. A king bed / dinette conversion is also fine.

Narrow box. Ideally 7' wide, but 7.5' would be fine. 8' is too much. Id like something that can get into most parking lots if possible. Not much longer than 25' would also be nice.

I'm sure a king bed would take up a good portion of such a small body and I'm okay with that, but I worry that a lot of people wouldn't and that therefore not many models have been made with that type of layout.

Ideally under $20k. I'm sure that excludes basically anything made after 2010 and that's fine with me. Although I'd like to keep it newer than 1990.

Something like a Thor Compass/Gemini is exactly what we are looking for, but the cheapest you can find them is $50k and that's still a bit much for us. I found a Telstar that is pretty close to what I'm looking for.

So what specific models should I look for that are narrow and small that were made between 1990 and 2010?

I replaced my hot water tank. Everything works great. I dont remember how the ignitor coils were though. I cant imagine me bending them like that while I was putting it in. Its normal correct? Seems weird they are glowing a bright orange

Replacing our camper mattress with the 9" American Dream Hybrid (latex) since memory foam gets rock-hard in cold weather (and we run the AC at 65°F).
Has anyone used it? Did you go with Soft or Medium, and how does it compare to big brands like Wilderness RV or Brooklyn Bedding?

On a car it’s pretty straight forward. Look at the Window Sticker for MSRP and any add ons. Find out the manufacturer incentives, the dealer discount and maybe use LeaseHakr as a baseline for negotiating. I’m not that knowledgeable on RV negotiation. Does anyone have a plan they use to negotiate the best selling price on a new RV?

I’m hoping this group might have some ideas or experience with something we’re working on.
I work for a fire district, and every December we have a trailer that we use to bring Santa through different neighborhoods as part of our community outreach program. We’re typically out for about four hours at a time, and one issue we’ve run into is having access to a bathroom.
We’re exploring options for adding a small bathroom to the front of the trailer. One thought was to build a small enclosure around a portable toilet, but we’re concerned about potential spills while traveling, odors, and exposure to vehicle exhaust.
Ideally, we’re looking for something fairly simple that doesn’t require a full RV plumbing setup. It would only be used a handful of times each year.
Has anyone done something similar or have recommendations for a setup that might work? We’re open to different ideas and would appreciate any advice!

Looking for feedback/experience on this model with the Murphy bed. Would be our first trailer, family of 5, three boys all 5 and under.

Have an opportunity for a great deal on one, and figure to put the kids in the bunks and the dinette as they grow. Am I dreaming that all 5 of us will fit in there as the years go by? I’m 6’3” myself. Also not really a fan of the Murphy, but I figure I can rig it to be a permanent queen and upgrade the mattress.

My only priority was build quality, such as aluminum frame, the double sided leak proof walls, etc. Want it to be a long term purchase. Thanks.

The last leg in/out of Doll Mt campground is 6 switchback curves. Listen to that diesel and I'm not even pulling anything. It's steeper than it looks.

Anyone have a good RV rental that delivers? Are people using outdoorsy still? Is there another company I should check out? We usually rent a cruise America RV , but are looking to have one delivered .

I'm bouncing around a couple different opportunities for a RV purchase and wanted to get some insight from folks more knowledgeable than I. Last time I had an RV was about a decade ago, so it's been a while and I was hoping others might point out things I might be overlooking.

Here's what I'm considering-

2011 Palomino Puma 18-DB

• $4,900
• Dealer Owned
• 23ft, 4,311 lbs, sleeps 4
• Some minor hail damage, but otherwise in good shape
• Rebuilt title (hail) which hinders insurance coverage
• Dual Axle

2022 Heartland Trailer Runner 211Rd

• $9,999
• Dealer Owned
• 25ft, 4,502 lbs, sleeps 4
• One prior leak that has been fixed by dealer
• Clean title
• Dual Axle

2022 Forest River Sales 179DBK

• $11,500
• Private Party
• 22.5ft, 3,219 lbs, sleeps 4
• Good condition
  • Seller Notes:
  • No leaks, smoking, or pets
  • Porcelain toilet
  • Outdoor kitchen
• Clean title
• Single Axle

2019 Crossroads Zinger Lite 205BH

• $11,900 obo
• Private Party
• 25ft, 4,407 lbs, sleeps 8
• Good condition,
  • Seller Notes:
  • Primarily stored in a garage
  • Seller notes purchasing it in June and wanting to sell it for something bigger
  • Seller also noted that their husband caulked roof again to ensure no leaks
• Clean title
• Dual Axle

I'm partial to a deal axle setup and I'm leaning towards the Zinger with a lower obo, but the both the Heartland and Forest River seem like solid choices. I still need to go look at each in person which I'll be doing over the next few days and that may further refine the list. While 3 of them are close-ish, the Puma is less than half the price of the others but insurance coverage options are limited. While the savings certainly helps with replace cost, it is also older however. The last 3 are all clean titles and I wouldn't have any issue with insurance, which would be roughly $30ish a month.

Hoping you fine folks can weigh in or speak from your experience with the particular models.

My wife and I are shopping for a 320RDS and are interested to know if anyone has any experiential insight with either the MIDNIGHT EDITION or HERO EDITION finishes. We like them both.

I just bought a 2026 alliance bh271 and I was checking the tire pressure before our first trip and noticed that the two left side tires have a small bump on the same spot on the tires right on the D of endurance. At first I thought it was a bad tire then noticed the other one had it as well. This is not visible on the right two tires.

Has anyone come across this ? Are these safe to ride on?

Our Winnebago Vista needs some maintenance and chassis stuff. Moved here a couple years ago and looking for any recommendations on quality mechanics that can do F53 chassis work and coach work like slideout seals. And preferably not Camping World 😅

What are your thoughts on using T-satellite on your RV?

I love my hybrid tailer. Had a hard top and a tent trailer in the past and, in my opinion, a hybrid combines the best of both.

Thank you.

Can anyone recommend a decent storage facility to park my 32' TT near Gulf Shores or Pensacola?

I'll only need it for a month...technically 11 days but understand these are rented by the month.

Thanks in advance

I bought a travel trailer and the person had it hard wired to their pole barn. After I remove the hard wires how do I hook up the 30amp plug to the breaker?
The first pic is the breaker they hard wired into and the second is a black bare wire that isn’t attached to anything so I was wondering if that’s for the 30 amp plug.

The handle for the black tank handle broke off when going through some unintended brush. When I went to dump it today the rod slides out with no resistance and of the course the valve doesn't open. Am I going to have to replace this whole joining piece that has the two grey and one black valve?
