RE: Trailer Brake Problems and Braking Performance
Trailer brakes aside, if you do some research you may find that Ford integrated brake controllers are not known to be the best you can get when compared to add on units.
Generally there is no braking when standing still, and they will not lock up. (unless you do it by hand)
RE: Pin box did I screw up?
Never had a 5th wheel where I could walk between the lowered tailgate and the trailer. Always have to raise the tailgate to get by. As long as the tailgate doest hit there should be no problem.
RE: DEF
I find washing the DEF off with gas the best way to remove it. it's also good for removing those stubborn bugs on the windshield.

Why use gas on a water based product?? All you need is water.
RE: ? Toilet Flushing Question
All toilets are not the same. I have had one that fills when you lift the pedal
and now one that fills when you depress the pedal a little. Perhaps older models dont have the fill feature?
RE: THOR bringing back Carriage Fifth Wheels
If the same VIP now running the Redwood brand could not make a go of it with the Carriage brand what makes him think he can do better with Thor?
RE: Lifestyle Fivers
I am finding our Lifestyle to be a mixed bag. It has great finishings, seems to be built for the fulltime lifestyle, and is well built. There are little stupid things though. The water lines to the water heater run through the outside refer compartment right next to the air inlet and are not insulated. Dumb. The water lines and sewer for the washing machine run down through the front "generator" compartment. Again not in a heated area.
The shower stall was not sealed from the factory. Dealer has resealed it twice. Still leaks. Wish I could find an email address for input to the factory.
