Wheel bearing maintenance interval
I’ve seen posts that say to repack every 12 months or 12,000 miles...since I only tow a little over 1,000 miles per year, do really have repack every 12 months? Does the wheel bearing grease degrade...

No, and No. Repack every few years when you get the urge. This, of course, presupposes the fact that you know the bearings were greased properly when you first bought it.
IMO doing it annually is completely unnecessary. Other people have other opinions. Mine have been greased once and checked once, in 9 years.
I thought I had the record ,I did mine twice in 12 years on previous fifth wheel :B Yes totally unnecessary as often as some do . I have said before that peace of mind sure has cost some a lot of money :R
