  1. This happens to me every once in a while as well.  Check the outdoor shower to make sure both the hot and cold water are turned off.  Sometimes, especially after de-winterizing, I have found I left one of the outdoor shower valves open. Make sure they're both off and release any water pressure in the faucet, and sometimes that will fix the problem.

  2. We have the teamworks one as well.  Bought it early on before we found out about Foy.  We love it, but I'm only 5'6"!  Besides making the bathroom look nicer, it's functional as well.  Highly recommend!

  3. We watched the episode last night as well.  Some good information for sure.  On our old trailer, a 23ft Rockwood mini-lite, I kept it at 65 mph at all times.  That's just the speed I felt most comfortable driving.  With the Elite II, I find myself going closer to 70 mph, because it pulls so well.

  4. I went to Batteries Plus today to look at purchasing 4 new AGM batteries for my 2018 Elite II.  The sales guy said he would go with the flooded battery due to the ease of maintenance and cost.  The price difference was $1,260 compared to $720.  I have never seen the flooded batteries talked about in this forum, so was wondering if anyone had tried them.  

     

  5. Thanks for all the help & feedback.  Would this be the 12V fuse under the dinette?  I've checked that one, but I'm assuming there is another fuse somewhere that controls only the curbside area?  

    Correction - my ac on that side does work.  We park the trailer about 30 mins away and I couldn't remember if it was all outlets or just the USB and DC plugs.  My wife (her side of the trailer) thought it was all.  Sorry for the confusion.

    More details would be helpful.  I had a rear jack stuck in the up position, like Steve did.  I removed the mattress to access the top of the jack and used the supplied jack handle to lower the jack until the gears caught and then it worked fine.  I try not to raise the jacks to the click-click-click position for that reason.  Mike

     

  7. I can't believe that right after I read your post, the next day I get a call from the manager of the place where I store my Oliver 2018 Elite II that there is some kind of alarm going off in my trailer.  When I went by to take a look, sure enough it was the propane/carbon monoxide sensor.  The date on the back of the sensor was January 25, 2015.  This post probably saved me a bunch of time.  I just took the old one out and ordered a new one.  Thanks!

  8. I just wanted to say thanks for everyone that posted on this topic, lots of good advice.  I put the gutters on my trailer today.  It was 85 degrees in Franklin, TN today, so a great day to do it.  I was having trouble with water coming in mainly the dinette window.  I replaced all the window seals, but didn't notice any difference.  I then caulked all the porch lights and did a little touch up around some of the windows.  That made a big difference, but I was still noticing some water intruding.  I really didn't want to add the gutters for cosmetic reasons, but finally bit the bullet.  They ended up being very easy to install, thanks to all your advice...and if mounted right up against the window, it almost looks like it was made that way.  Again, thanks for all the help!

  9. I know there has been numerous posts regarding bike racks, but haven't seen one where anyone talks about the Jack It bike rack.  Has anyone had any experience using the "Jack It" bike rack with their Oliver?  Trying to decide whether I should have the bike receiver installed from Oliver or go with the Jack It bike rack.  The Oliver receiver will cost $1,250 to install and still wont be perfect, with the 1 1/2" receiver.  Will have to get an adaptor to use my 2" Yakima bike rack.  The Jack It fits on the tongue, where the bikes should ride better and the cost would be much less.  I have some pretty expensive bikes, so I don't mind money, I just want to choose the best option.  Any advice would be appreciated.  Thanks!  

  10. Thanks for the advice!  We just bought the trailer and I'm wanting to remove the front decal.  It's one that just says "Ollie" and we're not thrilled with it.  The trailer is a 2018, so a little worried that the rest of the trailer will be a bit more faded.
