Ok, so those settings may have been incorrect, but that's not causing a breaker trip. There's still something else going on. Can you run a heavy extension cord (12 gauge) from an outlet in your garage directly to the plug/cord on your microwave? (Don't use a cheap cord, it could melt.) If the microwave works that way, there's a problem in your trailer, either a wiring fault or a bad breaker in the Xantrex. If the microwave trips your garage breaker, there's a problem with the microwave and it should be replaced.

Is it the circuit breaker in the breaker box under the dinette tripping or the GFCI in the outlet under the dinette tripping? They are different devices.

His first time camping.

Every winter. Columbus Day to April.

Association Island campground on the shores of Lake Ontario in upstate NY. This place has an interesting history. The island used to be the General Electric executive retreat. Thomas Edison held court there. Now it's a campground surrounded by water (there's a causeway), but some of the original buildings are still there. The largest, which was a lodge, has been refurbished into hotel rooms and there are dozens of sites and cabins, including many waterfront sites.

At one point, we were traveling with 2 cats, male and female siblings. One day the screen door got left unlatched and Callie (the brave one) wandered out, followed by Max (the big coward). Steph saw them and walked toward the trailer. Callie jumped back inside but Max panicked and dove under the fifth wheel. Eventually, by securing Callie inside and leaving the door open, Max made a mad dash back into the camper and hid under the covers. The outside world looked pretty good. Until they were in it. 🙂

@Patriot, thanks for bringing this up. Prompted me to get a repair kit as well.

Will just released another BB video. He's got a BB BBQ for the 4th!

According to AI, for whatever that's worth: "The Social Security Administration (SSA) has experienced the largest workforce reduction in its history, cutting more than 8,000 agency jobs—shrinking staff to its lowest level since 1967. These reductions and regional office closures are causing severe customer service delays, extended call wait times, and backlogs for vital disability and retirement benefits." I'm supposed to get my very first SS payment soon. Fingers crossed. Good luck.

Our 2022 came from the factory with a zip tie routed under the fridge receptacle to tie down the fridge plug. No-one at the factory actually attached that zip tie, so the plug popped out, but at least it was there so I could finish the job and secure the plug. 🙄 It's been fine ever since.

Yes, they are. There's a long history of people reporting sudden, catastrophic failures of Castle Rock tires. One of our previous trailers came with them and we replaced them before our first trip. I advise anyone who gets an Oliver wearing Castle Rock tires to replace them immediately with a quality trailer tire like Goodyear Endurance. We also had very good luck with Maxxis M8008 ST tires. Ran those on two or our trailers for years and many miles after Goodyear started having problems with their Marathon trailer tires (which they later replaced with the improved Endurance).

Please tell me you're kidding.

It's possible a dealer swapped the tires out. I've heard of dealers doing that sort of thing. Example: The sale of some other brand trailer they have on the lot is held up because the customer doesn't want the Castle Rock tires. There's the unsold Oliver over there with brand new Goodyears in the same size. Problem solved!

We also drive our truck onto Legos when we hit a dump station.

Sounds like altitude to me. Gas appliances often need a different orifice to work at higher altitudes. You might be able to get a high altitude one at a local RV repair shop.
