Theft at campgrounds???????????
How prevalent is theft at campgrounds? I see items to lock your power cord down so it cant be stolen, locks for coolers, etc. What about leaving your RV unlocked while at the pool? Thanks

We leave out inexpensive stuff. More expensive stuff will get put away at night or when away. Our cord is fixed into the trailer, so aside from cutting it, hard to steal.
Those honda generators are nice. If I had one I'd been chaining that sucker up and putting it away as well.
There is something to be said about the locks on most trailers. The outside storage locks are pretty much all keyed with the same key. For every trailer. The door locks may be different but chances are, someone in your CG has the same key that will unlock your rig. Point about the outside locks...friend bought a 2000 trailer. Mine is 2014. When I went to look at it, he left key for outside storage in the house. I had mine, opened it right up...
Also another thing I have heard...the locks on a trailer only keep honest people honest. Makes sense. If someone wants to get in your trailer or outside storage to steal something, those locks aren't going to stop them and chances are they won't have a key. For this reason I know some folks don't lock anything because they rather not risk damage to the trailer.
