RE: New Forest River Wolf pup 2023 Catastrophic Failure :(

That is truly a nightmare, wow.
Anything other than a new trailer would be completely unacceptable as that trailer will never be the same.
Don't give up your dreams and don't let this debacle consume the two of you.
Wife and I are on our 4th trailer and have raised our children and have gotten old enjoying camping and building unforgettable memories.
Forrest river is a very large player in the RV industry and praying that they come through and do the right thing.....a full replacement.

RE: New Super Duty on order

Late to the party.
Have a 2021 F250 7.3 with 22k on the odometer, mostly towing.
It's been a trouble free truck since I bought it new in 2020.
My only complaint is tow mode in the mountains.
Touch the brakes and LOOK OUT.
Easily mitigated by towing in manual mode while in the hills which I much prefer anyway.
I also lockout 9th and tenth on the highway for shift free towing at 2100 RPMS.
Yes I would buy this exact truck again.

RE: Anything other than silicone..

I've only kept 1 trailer long enough to require a re-caulk and used Lexell, the cats meow.

RE: Tire age?

Been towing for over 30 years and never had a single flat.
I check the time pressure before each trip and inflate to max psi.
And of course a quality tire like the Endurance.
Stay safe

RE: Does travel trailer furnace have a filter?

No filters.
It's the reason I gotta clean my sail switch periodically because I got dogs that shed. ??

RE: Smaller tanks

If handling ease is your goal then by all means switch to 20#.
The wife and I travel quite a bit in our trailer and could easily get by with smaller tanks.
We seldom boondock and almost always heat our trailer with a ceramic heater.
Your furnace will be the determining factor as it's BY FAR the biggest user of Propane.
Enjoy your adventures.

RE: Cover for camper while in storage? Yes/no?

Well I've not had the good fortunes with covers.
Took it off in the spring and my God.....the mildew was absolutely horrendous.
Wife and I scrubbed the entire interior for hours. Probably should have used a weed eater.
Ever since we've left uncovered.
I do however rub the trailer down with UV protectant every 2 months.

RE: Slide leakage

Yes, it's OSB-press board, it sweels with water intrusion.
If you can live with it, no issues regarding health.
