    Bumper Pull with Front Overhang Layout

    I recently watched this video about a "retro" cabover prototype trailer layout to be introduced by Riverside RV. The design features a shortened 5th wheel-style bunk that overhangs the A-frame of a bumper-pull trailer. Having never come across a vintage trailer with this layout, I admit it...

    When is full actually full?

    We have a 13 gallon black tank. Is the “full” sensor at the top of the tank or just below? That’s how it is on the fresh tank?

    No 12 volt power.

    Just picked up our new 5.0 with the Victron energy package. I forgot to hold the red button in for 3 seconds before turn the battery disconnect to the off position. Now I can’t get any power when turning the battery disconnect to the on position. Does anyone know how to get it to work?

    Lippert frameless window recall

    Anyone have suggestion for adhesive to secure frameless window pane to outer pane? Been over a year and Lippert has still not sent replacements to my RV tech and they will not discuss the case with me because I did not place the order. Actually had one fall out while in my driveway.

    Trailer hitch won't come off ball

    I'm having trouble getting my trailer hitch off the ball of the tow vehicle. I was curious if in a pinch it is possible to release the ball hitch unit from the truck and then separating the trailer hitch from the ball. I feel like this maybe silly as I can't find any reference online...

    So I traded my 2010 F150 without measuring ball height first. Oops! Bought a 2024 F150 Lariat, FX4, bed is a lot higher. I lowered the ball, I have an Andersen Rapid Hitch. I've lowered it, top of ball is at about 20 1/2 inches. Trailer is stock height.

    Hi all, we have a 2012 17B that we modified: we removed the fridge and using a Lagun mount, we created a larger bed area that we love.

Other suggestions? We like...
