We can't all be 100% happy with our TT. If you could change 2 and only 2 things about yours, what would they be? I chose 2 things,because, like Lays Potato Chips, one is never enough. I would add a small dresser to our front bedroom, and more drawers in the galley. While I basically love the layout of our camper, our bathroom has more drawer space than the kitchen. The bathroom is hugmongous, but I really don't need that much storage space back there. I can only carry so much TP and soap.

Hey guy, how long did it take to type that? And not what you DID, what would you change? Never mind, the list might be even longer!! OOOHHHHH, I like the tushy washer, but I guess we really already have one. Just never thought about it that way. learn somethin' new every day.

Wilburg, if you're female, my husband says no, your camper is fine the way it is. If you're a guy, I say go for it.

I get Valet parking at Home Depot

I would change the brakes on my MH . They are crappy.,
Thats one thing I would change.

The list took a while to build. Several times there have been questions on "what mods did you make".

I bet there are a few I have forgotten.

Tim Allen here, More mods, er , more power.

Yeah, a turbo, banks,
