2004 Fleetwood Wilderness 250rks questions (Ist timer)

Greetings all,

Just recently purchased a 2004 FLeetwood Wilderness 250rks as my first travel trailer. Seems like a great trailer, with some pretty good reviews in these forums. However, I am a complete NEWB, and seem to be a little ignorant (I dunno,maybe a lot--LOL). Anyway, I have a few basic questions to ask.

1) on each side of the camper, near the wheels, are two white hoses hanging loosely before disappearing into the covering. Can anybody tell me what they are for?

2) There are two water in attachments, one says city water, the other says nothing. The used trailer dealer I purchased the trailer told my what the other was for, but I cannot remember. Can anybody help?

3) There is a black water and grey water dump near the rear, there is also another dump at the front. Is this to drain the fresh water tank? I can't trace these lines, because there is a covering just above these end of line attachments. DOes this mean it is a full weather camper?

Anyway, as you can see, I am still learning. We are wanting to take this tt to a campground soon, and try it out. Any help before we do would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

  • Thanks very much! The brochure looks great and the 250rks floor plan is the same as our unit!
  • I found a brochure for the 2006 line - Click Here

    And your unit has 2 40 gallon gray tanks. One for the rear kitchen, and one for the bathroom up front. That's why you have 2 connectors for dumping.
  • Thanks so much!! The answer to #2 is what I remember. The answer to #3 sounds correct, as the tank indicator has a "galley" indicator. #1 I will try and figure out. I am going to try and post a picture if I can.

    Thanks again
  • 1) should be low point drains, one may be fresh water drain. One or both may be capped.

    2) If the other water connection has a large screw on cap its to fill your fresh water holding tank.

    3) If the front one has a large black cap like the rear, its for dumping another holding tank. Your unit may have three tanks, galley,grey,black.
