Re: Remove Med Cabinet
Thanks everyone-It has fiberglass siding I am thinking glue/two sided tape. I don't think it will bother me as much up behind the toilet really tired of hitting my head into it when using the sink. Know how to remove it without damaging the wallpaper if I do damage it I will put a mirror (just a mirror) on the wall357Views0likes0CommentsRemove Med Cabinet
I have a Wildwood Heritage Glenn Lite trailer and the medicine cabinet is right over the sink makes it hard to get into sink so I would like to remove it and place it behind the toilet this would give me adequate room to use sink. My question is how is the Medicine Cabinet attached to the wall I see no screws2.8KViews0likes11CommentsRe: GETTING POWER TO TRAILER
The 5er is a 30amp and I will be tapping right off of the main house's 200amp service panel. The short story is we are moving next to my father inlaw on a medical hardship permit and having a manufactured home brought in so I was going to just run the 10/2 wire right out of the service panel (on it's own 110 30 amp breaker)over to the trailer and then after everything is done just disconnect the wire from service panel and then I will have a nice extension RV cord. The worker at Homedepot said I could not run my RV off of an extension cord like that because I will lose voltage drop at 40' so I would need to use direct bury wire and if it's on top of the ground I would need to sleeve the wire with electrical pvc conduit. The only thing I don't like is I will need to come out of the front of the service panel because it's recessed into the wall unless I drill holes into the wall of the house to snake wire into electrical service box Again thank you everyone with all the help this forum has help me so many times436Views0likes0Comments- 182Views0likes0Comments
GETTING POWER TO TRAILER
Hello my wife and I will be staying in are 26' 5th wheel until we get are manufactured house put in aorox 4 Mo. The closet I can get to the power is 40' so my question is what setup should I go with its winter time so I don't think will be using the air con will probably use a small oil type heater that plugs in to heat the place to cut down on the propane cost 1.) I was thinking of using a 10/2 extension cord type wire its weather and chemical resistant/30amp 110 breaker 2.) Or should I run 10/2 outside/direct buried wire /30amp 110 breaker Both ways will cost about the same and it will only be temporary any advise would be helpful5.5KViews0likes21CommentsRe: Sealing Roof ??
The stuff is called Plasti Dip, I have read reviews on the flex seal and no one really cared for it and it didn't hold up to what they said it would. I was thinking of using Plasti Dip it's the stuff you dip hand tools in to put a rubber grip on them and it comes in a spray can http://www.plastidip.com/ Thank you orlandimal I will do the same484Views0likes0CommentsSealing Roof ??
I have a small leak up front on my 5th wheel I can not figure where its coming from? so I was woundering if anyone has used the plastic dip in a spray can on their Rv roof. I have used it for a lot of other things and was just woundering if you could use it on the Rubber roof of the 5th wheel. Tried looking up reviews not many out there some say Yes some say No. The Flex Seal stuff seems to be a joke in a can but was just woundering about the plastic dip5.2KViews0likes9CommentsRe: Dealer won't send terms of loan/contract?
Sounds like they don't want you to have time to read the entire contract before signing it, So if you need to be in person then I would drive over there and pick it up in person then take it home and look at it and if they don't agree to that sale is over good bye theres plenty of Rv's for sale337Views0likes0CommentsRe: Is this too much to pay?

This is our 1st RV and we are looking to buy now to get the unit substantially paid down prior to our retirement in 4 yrs. So because we have time....yes possibly would cancel based on opinions here. Being a first timer I would buy a used trailer then you can see what you like and dislike maybe rent one for the weekend.I have bought a used Travel Trailer and didn't like it so I have switch to a used 5th wheel and so far I like it but there are a few things I would look for in my next 5th wheel.Spending $76,000 and finding out theres things you don't like I would much rather spend a lot less to find out I am noway an expert I am on my second used trailer and if I was to go out and spend thousands I would feel comfortable about what to buy. My wife and I just went to the Cal expo Rv show and most of the trailers where over 35' which is nice but keep in mind most parks only allow 30' or less the sales people don't tell you that. My wife and I will end up retiring and living/traveling in one389Views0likes0Comments
