(1) I was lost in NY state with my truck camper. While looking for route signs I must have missed a low overhead warning. I went around a sharp bend saw an overhead sign but before it registered on me that I would not fit, I was under the bridge and my air conditioner did not make it.
(2) Out for a quick weekend with my Class C, I decided that I needed to back up a little to better level the rig. Did not put the hatch to my large storage compartment down. A tree tried to help. Made for a short weekend as I traveled home with no door on storage compartment.
(3) The latest and maybe the dumbest happened as I was preparing my unit for winter storage. I bought some RV antifreeze and put it on a shelf with a half full bottle from last year. As I was pouring in the half gallon it appeared that the "antifreeze" was very thick and of a strange color. Turned out that I had used the jug from last year to drain some old oil from my garden equipment. What a mess.
I was lucky that I did not pump any of the oil through my system but it took a lot of Tide and many flushes before I got it clean.
