1) I use Turtle Wax carwash w/ wax. Chances are the costco stuff us made by them too. No issues. I only worry about the roof about once a year, and use the same stuff on it too.
2) I store the genny in the laundry basket cubby in the front bedroom. Not sure if your floorplan has the same cubby.. I use this spot because it's out of the way, and if a thief did get in the trailer, they probably would not see it.
3) I don't have one. It's on my wish list. My tires are maxed out. The factory Goodyears only lasted me about 30,000 miles, and wore out the edges like an underinflated tire would, even though I always ran max psi or a little higher.
4) Wood blocks to get close. I did end up replacing the rear stab jacks with a set of power leveling jacks. This makes the final leveling way easier, and they're more stable too. (ORV offers them as an option, but I did mine aftermarket)
5) Not needed. Even in the sun on days above 100F. The outside fridge has a fan form the factory.
6) Rhino flex. Store in the front compartment. I have a cheaper hose I use for dumping, stored in the bumper.
7) I added the camping world vent covers. Very nice. Keeps rain and debris out. I picked the camping world model over maxair because it has more open area.
8) Yes, I walk up there for washing and putting the cover on and off. I go without shoes, just in my socks. The ladder is plenty sturdy. I use it to stabilize bikes on the rear rack.
9) I initially had some issues with the Schwintek slides systems. After the 2nd factory visit, they told me to start using silicone spray on the gear tracks. So far so good. I read somewhere else the the system has been revised and doesn't need Silicone anymore. Might want to ask the factory about that one.
