RE: Ladder bicycle racks

We've hauled 2 on the ladder rack, which holds them very well. The last few times out we just carried one back there. I think its a Thule ladder mount. It anchors very well and the bikes are tied on nice and tight.
In 5 years, knock on wood, we've never had a problem. Our ladder holds me, and I have in the past been over 300 - I periodically check the hardware that anchors the ladder, and tighten them if they are slightly loose.
The bike handle stuck out just enough for me to watch in my mirror...I never saw it shake, unless the whole trailer was shaking.

RE: Adding reverse lights

AAnt...I'm sure your fellow campers thought those 55W Halogens were great when you came rolling in the night too....
A friend of mine has 2 Halogens, and he turns them on seperately.They are angled to be less intrusive to fellow campers....2 out the side seems to be overkill.

RE: WE PUT THE OFFER IN - BUT ONE CONCERN - LINK ADDED FOR UNIT!

Have you seen a title?
Going off in another direction that could be another surprise....
As stated before, there are plenty of other choices out there. Go with your gut!

RE: For those of you who fly the American flag at your camp

I rarely see the American flag flown in the c/gs I've been to the last few years....so if somebody is flying it, even if not lit, I still feel good and am glad to see somebody else has some Patriotism...and I'm a Vet.
I have mine mounted to by trailer King Pin Hitch. I used a regular flag pole mount drilled some holes into the hitch, and used metal screws. The PVC pole fits real nice and the flag is high enough to not get in the way.
...and No, I don't have it lit at night.
I also fly my Navy flag!

RE: Lippert frame damage

Sorry for your situation.
Concerning cost to repair...it depends on how you feel about your trailer and what is the estimate to repair - it may cost more to buy a new (Used) one - and you still would have to get rid of your damaged one.
Only you know the shape of your trailer.

RE: Least problematic brands and dealers

I totally agree with RVCrazy - Just because a manufacturer has deep pockets and sells a lot of units does not make them quality. However, I can not speak about Artic Fox quality

RE: Dropped trailer on truck

Bravo - up2nogood.
Cummins12v98 - you do have good things to say, won't ever block you, but you have to admit, when it comes to B&W - you are a zealot. It's like you always have to be right. And now you have the insurance issue going. That $100 premium sounds too good - is that per month?

RE: Water hose

Water-bug had it right.....I like the "White" theory. BTW, after working outside in 90+ temps, I'm not afraid to grab the green garden hose.....

RE: Dropped trailer on truck

As previously mentioned a few times...HUMAN ERROR...now is there anybody out there that claims NOT to be of the human race, and therefore immune of making a mistake....if so, let me make a few calls....and this includes Mr. B&W, who's at it again.

RE: 8'6" width concerns

This is our 5th season with our 102" wide 5ver....never had a problem while traveling...wouldn't give up those 6 extra inches...however, I can tell the difference with my truck's mirrors....but, it's not bad.
..and yes, I have calculated all that extra space I gain.

RE: TPMS - TST or PressurePro?

I have the TST 510 model (the older ones), in which you have to send them back for battery replacement ($20). I just had to replace my second unit; the first was under warranty - no questions asked.
I love them - my truck has it's own system. It's interesting to see how closely the tires match (6 of my 8 tires are inflated to 80 PSI).
I take them off the trailer when not in use to save on battery life.

RE: Whoops!

We had our sink insert pop out and get jam a bit during our kitchen slide going out....small indent in the wall, slide was not damaged. We no longer let the slide go out without checking inside first.
Live and learn, that what experience is all about.
Good Luck.
