heres my 2 cents, I have an older Fleetwood with the 14' slide the trailer is in perfect condition, very seldom used and store in a heated shop most of its life. my problem is the siding on the slide, its lose down both sides and other areas. I see absolutely no water damage anywhere. i'm going to pull the filon off this spring when it warms up. I talked to an rv repair shop here localy about getting the siding off. he said pull the windows and storage covers and it will probably fall off. I don't think it will be that easy but he seemed to think its not that big of a job. he said most likely no water damage but just the glue losing its grip. I could use it like it is but it bother me i'm kin of a nitpicker. I've been in the auto restoration business for over 40 years so I don't see this as being to difficult. if it bothers you and your handy with tools you might consider fixing it. the hardest part I can see would be handling the siding without breaking it. i'm only dealing with 14' i'm going to rig up a lifting apparatus in my storage area to lift and hold the siding from the top in 5 or 6 places with clamps.
