[Camping with Hull #110 on Monday]

We replaced the lens last year. We've had some really heavy rains since then, and all is good. 

You could try cleaning it up and recaulking first. And, I think the little strip of rv gutter helps divert the rainwater, I think. 

 

 

Thanks so much for the info!

[Camping with Hull #110 on Monday]

Chris here. If all goes well, we will be picking up hull #110 on Monday. Though reported earlier on the forums as selling for a very high amount, the dealer came to their senses by the time we came upon it and had dropped the price considerably. Looks like new inside and out, really. Someone took great care of it. 

I myself have been researching RV'ing and travel trailers for seven years now; certainly didn't rush into anything. It's time to stop watching YouTube only. 

The Oliver is in EXCELLENT condition from what we can tell. We've visited it a few times and gone over it quite thoroughly. I've been watching any Oliver videos I could find since 2015; not too many out there by private owners. Erika and I will ”attempt” to change that. We'll see how we do. We're both software support and video editors (desktop recordings). 

The only immediate concern we have is the rear Oliver sign and if it's sealed well enough.

Does anyone have a link to a how-to for the rear sign?  

More to come as these TT n00bs get their feet wet. No more tents for us.  

Also, kudos to the dealer. They even took it camping one weekend and said it tows excellent. They could have tried to sell us an anti-sway or weight distribution system, but said that with my 2020 RAM Limited with 4-way airbags and 3.92 differential (for towing ability), it should not be necessary and to try it first before buying that extra gear. That's a good sign. 

We're looking forward to upgrading some basic components and making it our own.  We'll supplement the 4 new flooded lead acid batteries with our two 1000 watt Jackeries. The trailer does have the 320 watt panel and everything seems to work well. 

More to come,

Chris

Only Admins can do that but I’ll send them a PM. It might be a few days before they can get to it. 

I can't figure out how to identify an admin so could you please send them a PM to change our display name to Erika and Chris? Thanks!
