To Gene in NE: Re: I don't recall you mentioning whether you have a Ford or Chevy chassis.....
Forgot to mention it, but actually it's a Chevy 5.7 - same as yours!
Meanwhile we've been on another trip of just a few days and we haven't had any trouble at all starting.
It's nice to know there's someone here with exactly the same Trail Lite B+ (even the year!), except we don't have a slide. We find the interior space quite comfortable though for the two of us (plus cat sometimes).
Regards, thanks again,
Willy & Tom in beautiful NW WA
