Sounds good. I’ll bring it along. Bob

I recently had the new rec pro on-demand hot water heater installed in our Oliver. I have this heating unit from our trauma left over if anybody could use it. We will be at the rally. However, we are leaving tomorrow morning to start our road trip so if you get back to me quickly, I’ll throw it in and you can have it when we get to the rally. Bob

Let's chat at the rally. We travel a lot in the Ollie but we also travel a lot without it. Just returned from 2 weeks in Scotland, and getting ready to head to Yellowstone. Tim's Ford Lake is a beautiful area. There is at least one other couple we met down there (War Trace) with an Ollie. We'll look forward to meeting at Lake Guntersville. Bob

There was a prototype of the LE I with apex trim on the showroom floor this summer. They said there was no plan to take that to market though.

Ironically, I just went through this when our awning began to jam because of a piece of debris. I was really annoyed that the bottom end cap screw was inaccessible and went hunting for a right angle screw driver. But even with that the screws were pretty locked up and took an effort to remove. I ended up replacing the bottom end cap screw with a hex cap screw so I could (next time) remove it with a wrench or socket. You won't realize how good @Tom and Doreen tips above are until you need them. 🙂

If you want to consider the smaller LE I check out this post. We have been very happy with the smaller unit.

Just to close the loop on this, I was banking on the fact that Oliver may eventually be able to get more weatherstripping from Lippert, however, it seems that that still has not happened. So we tried a couple of different solutions to clean the weatherstripping before ordering the black, and lo and behold a solution of bleach and dish soap brought things nearly back to the original white. Minimal amount of scrubbing. Soaked for about 20 minutes.

Good tips. Thanks. Yes, the humidity is the bane of our existence here in Nashville.

Nasty.

Thanks for the link for that cleaner. If I don't swap the weather stripping out for black, I will definitely check out this product. Bob

I will for sure check the profile. And your thoughts about black are growing on me. I think I will give that a try to eliminate the need to replace it again 2 years down the road. Thanks! Bob

Looks like it would work in the 2024. Did they have white available? I didn't see a color sector.

That’s great information. Thanks for sharing. I will check out the Steele product. I would be curious about the Pelland as well. Let us know how that works out. Thanks again!

Does anybody have a supplier for the weatherstripping that goes around the windows in a 2024? That stuff is nearly impossible to get clean and I would just like to replace it all. It comes from Lippert, but Oliver hasn’t been able to get them to provide any replacement rolls of the stuff. Appreciate your thoughts. Bob
