    Just purchased a 2016 nitro xlr 24fqsl toy hauler. So far challenging figuring things out. Hoping to find somebody on her with a similar unit so I can pick their brain. User manuals way too generic and haven’t found this model in videos or online places. Looking for any direction suggestions.

    Newbie question: 2509s and water filter

    Just brought home our brand new 2509s. I see it came with a FRE-10-GN water filter, and I found where they hid the filter and water pump.
