The outside faucet in the side storage area of our 1996 RT Versatile leaked badly and no replacement parts were available. RT mounted this faucet inside a fiberglass enclosure and the only access was from a tiny opening behind the rear driver's side wheel. Unbelievable lack of planning/engineering! I cut out a section of the enclosure in order to gain access, and replaced the faucet with a stronger non-rv type. Soon I'll fabricate an L-shaped piece of aluminum to cover the opening that I cut out. RT should have realized that these parts don't last forever, and replacement should have been made much easier. Even a plumber with a basin wrench would've had extreme difficulty the way that RT originally configured this faucet. Grrrr! Thanks for reading my "rant".
