I was trying to remember how our Alumascape cord was handled.
I may be wrong but it was hooked to the Fifth wheel in a compartment.
Doesn't matter, if you're younger and more fit than me I would end the task. In the compartment or one next to the plug attachment Install a powered cord reel package, of cord reel and cord. Take aa clean sheet of paper and design a hole to fit the small door and cord end and weather tight cover. Install it and seal it good. Our Mh is antique and still have to drag the cord out through a hole in the bottom of compartment. Not quite enough room for the reel but I bet I can find someone to cure the situation, when time and circumstance arises.
This hauling the cord otu and then a hose and then the sewer hose out connecting them and taking them loose and storing them has gotten old with my back not wanting to cooperate.. Guarantee the next MH will have powered reels for all three! The cord and reel are easily found on the internet or were the little door wit thee cord hole ad rollers and cover and switch will probably have to be part number from a Motorhome but maybe not.
I would gladly give up a bit of storage to get rid of the hassle.
