G'day;

So almost ready to park rv for the winter months in the rain/snow, etc. Until spring 2018; i.e. mid Apr., approx. It is parked on level ground and my only question, for now, is: should I tilt it towards the rear or maybe tip it (roof) slighly down in front?

Your call and thanks in advance for your advise.

p.s. It is not level and I can see water pools around the skylight edges.:E

G'day to you too! :B

Right or wrong, when winter storing our trailer outdoors my own call is to park the trailer tongue down with a breathable ADCO cover over it. Last winter I winter stored indoors and it sure was a lot easier, may do it again this winter as it's one sure way to protect the trailer from harsh winter weather.


My thought is the roof is designed to work level, so park the trailer level.
