- M_GO_BLUE1ExplorerWe haven't tackled the was and wax yet...our last fiver took us 3+ hours just to wax by hand...heck our truck takes us 1+ hours to wax...

Next Tuesday I have cataract surgery on one eye and 2 weeks after that I have the second eye done...so we all know what will be on my mind this weekend...not supposed to happen to someone who is 46 years old is it? :( - TravlingmanExplorer III have been busy washing and waxing the rig this weekend for our trip this coming weekend. Alot of work, but it sure looks great. The gel coat really shines after a wax.

On the thermal pane windows, anybody else notice they leak? Just about every one of mine does. The felt track on the inside is wet after a good rain
I have them in my 328 RLS TT mine get wet also. You will find that the screws that holds the window slide stops will rust . I replaced all stop screws with stainless steel ones. I like the thermal pane windows over the single pane ones for sure. - CHV_FRKExplorerThat's good....You'll need ALL weekend!
- eaherrmannExplorerWe had 60mph rains this past Sunday (it was going sideways) and of course the 5vr was directly in it's path. :E Minor damage around the home front but everything concerning the trailer stayed nice and dry, DW did pickup a metal sliver when she ran her finger along the felt molding to check the window though. :( Now all we need to do is get all the blown leaves off of it. Good weekend to wash and wax her....

the trailer that is. ;) - CHV_FRKExplorerYes... water will go both ways through those. It's not a big deal. It should never come out of the frame.
- loydtExplorerquick call to my dealer this morning and they said that is normal. There are tiny little holes where it will drain out.
- M_GO_BLUE1ExplorerNever noticed that on ours and while on vacation we got hit with rain and blowing rain...
