  1. I made this because the Owners Manual towing and camping lists are simply lame. This one is set up like an aircraft preflight checklist. Feel free to edit and change as needed, some items may not apply or you may just want to do it differently.

  2. Now I know many of you use a handy tshirt to block the light at your door window.....:) I recovered the head bumper ( I may have forgotten to mail it to the upholstery person!) oops ... and I made a simple roll up and tie curtain for the window. There was already a piece of Velcro at the top of the screen door so maybe it had a curtain at one time? Don't know. Anyone have a curtain? Besides light it seems like it's going to really help with the heat too. Hmmm I still have extra fabric. Maybe some toiletry bags and a dirty clothes hamper? Lol I Have time to sew right now since I'm a teacher still on summer break. Lol

  3. Hey Brandi, I was digging through some pictures of when we picked up our trailer and look what I found. I thought you might like to see these. I remembered that we had seen your trailer when we went to the factory but forgot that I took some pictures of it. Hope you enjoy them. Good Luck on the road. Scotty

  4. It depends on which AC unit you have. The Easy Start will certainly reduce the LRA but once the AC gets going the draw may be too much for a 2000 watt inverter. I have the Magnum hybrid 3000 and it does fine. My Dometic Briskair 15000 needs 150 amps of battery to run on low. That's a huge drain and we only use the AC for short stops to keep the trailer cool for lunch, or to pre cool as we approach a Campground with electricity. The best unit for running on battery is the Atwood Air Command and when the Briskair fails I will replace with the Atwood. When I had Ollie 64 I could run the Atwood 13500 all day on battery. The most I have seen my solar produce is 25 Amps. It takes a while to re charge those batteries. Four Crown AGM six volt. Wishing for Lithiums but they are spendy.

  5. I personally would be very reluctant to hang much inside the door. Anything heavy stresses the hinge and latch in ways for which they were not designed, and anything bulky like a coat will seriously be in the way when you are accessing the inside. Plus you could bonk your face on the hook when leaning down.... The only thing I hung inside mine was my personal checklist. Not shown in the pic, I do have three 1 inch Command clips inside for my CaneMasters cane, the broom and the dust pan, stuck to the side walls.... plus there's my shotgun rack, which is currently and temporarily holding the leaf rake and the fly swatter.

  6. The entire door is fiberglass, it's just that with way the door is molded, there is no way to gelcoat the interior, therefore no "slick" surface on that side. To dress it up the company paints the back side. This is just like what is applied to the inside of the cupboard door and the underside of all the hatch lids and the table tops. I'm quite sure you can glue a hook to it, although as thick as it is, I would just attach it with screws.
