RE: Window Repair
Use butyl rubber tape and peel off whatever oozes out. Do not be overly generous about applying it as too much will add enough pressure while trying to squeeze the sides tight to strip the screw holes.

RE: RV decision
If buying used, avoid 2021 and 2022 "covid " units. Most lines, regardless of prior build quality, suffered greatly during those years to put out good products. Some may have managed to put out some good units but the overall performance during those years is very spotty.

RE: Just bought an RV with 1 year remaining on the Couch Only
Don't bother. You will probably want a different couch in a year or two anyway.

RE: Komfort 274TS Receptacle Issues
Most trailers will have a gfci outlet at the front of the string and the rest will daisy chain off of that. Check the bathroom and kitchen outlets to see if they are gfci. They will not look like a home gfci outlet with all the markings. The two buttons in the middle will be there. Keep us posted.

RE: Trailer rental
If I was making that trip, I would reserve one near where you need to pick things up. Might be a one way fee but it sure beats pulling an empty trailer all the way there.

RE: So tell me about your perfect couples travel trailer
I will throw in the Keystone Cougar 22RBS, 2020 vintage. King size bed, theater seating or dinette option. Sturdy build and extremely reliable. So far. Only 9 k miles on it. Perfect for two but card playing will be under the awning at the picnic table.

RE: Fresh Water Tank Location
First, the water coming out of the low point drains is from the system that feeds your faucets, shower and toilet. Those caps are holding pressure when you have street water or the pump is on.
Wherever your fresh fill is the tank will be below that. Sometimes the tank drain is behind a frame rail or otherwise hidden. A creeper and a good look at the bottom and you may discover all the answers you need.

RE: Best Fridge Type
20 years and zero issues with any of the propane/120 Dometics we have had and they have the added bonus of having a backup system. No large draw from the batteries and it does not use much propane either. I may be a dinosaur but the only enemy of absorption reefers is the folks that own them. If you keep the flue and airway clear of webs and nests a unit will last a very long time. And perform well as long as it is not in a slide. JMHO.

RE: Roof Opinions Please
The roof looks like an EDPM material. It has a white layer that gradually sheds off exposing the black substrate. Usually indicates end of life for roof if there is more black than white.
As far s the Dicor, it at least needs a cleaning and another layer to seal it.
Where is the vinyl that you show as breaking down?

RE: Airstream fresh water tank drain valve replacement
Wow! Amazing how the nine most expensive letters in RV'ing uses the same components as my camper that probably cost 1/4 of an airstream except the manufacturer of my trailer put the drain where it will not be affected by uv rays. Had that same piece in a trailer for ten years and it was still functional after ten years.

RE: carfax for truck campers
Carfax is mostly useless anyway so if they are looking for one they drank the coolaid. I had a truck that had been in three accidents, all reported to insurance and police. The guy that bought it from me told me I must be mistaken about the accidents as carfax said it was never in an accident. Showed him pictures just to make sure he knew the true history. Checked carfax myself and it had no record of any accidents for my truck. He bought the truck based on the carfax report and dismissed my history as unreliable.
Worked fine for me as I was getting 80% of the original price ten years and 200k miles later.

The most accurate way to get the answer is to ask your buddy. He just might know.

RE: 2019 coleman 264RL tire pressure?
There is no reason to follow what is on the tire. The internet has all you need to have. I can't understand why people even read or are concerned about the manufacturers instructions when there are so many experts out there that know better. Today's reality. Scary!

During assembly the guy on the drivers side pushed up and the guy on the passenger side pulled down. Wouldn't be the first time.

RE: What material is my Lance TC SHOWER made of
Most in travel trailers have acrylic and your is probably acrylic too. I don't think they would change material because it is a truck camper. You may have to get behind it to glue something on to stabilize it and then gouge out a groove at the surface to fill in.

RE: Good Sam credit card opened in my name
Another tip is to lock your credit reports so another one could not be opened as soon as you cancel the first one. No credit report available = no credit card/loan/line of credit.

RE: Camping in New Zealand
The people are wonderful but the government will make you jump through many hoops. Sister in law lives in Australia and wanted to do the same kind of trip. Took almost six months of NZ looking into her finances and bank accounts, a complete list of every place they were going to stay so the reservations could be verified and a complete list of every place they wanted to see. SIL wanted to visit in summer but it was winter before the visa was issued. She cancelled the trip and then had to explain to the NZ authorities why she wasted their time.

RE: LP gas leak
Flare fittings should NEVER use any sealant. If it is leaking there is dirt or damage at one or both sides of the flare. The whole idea of a flare fitting is to make a metal to metal seal. The nut that tightens it down has no sealing ability, it is just a way to apply pressure to the flare to make the seal.
