An idea for safety

Once in a while we have been known to park in a Walmart parking lot (heaven forbid!) or at Cracker Barrel and we have to open one slide to give us access to our refrigerator. To improve our visibility at night, Glen added some reflective strips to the bottom of the sides of the slides, both in the front and the rear. The strips are on the bottom edge of the slide that goes in when we're traveling but is visible when the slide is out. Hopefully, this will give us a little more protection when we parked in a dark parking lot or campground.

Good idea ! I had to buy some reflective tape for a utility trailer. trailer dealers have rolls of the white and red reflective tape (each color is about 3" X 6" and alternate on a continuous roll). You can cut them up into the small rectangles or just leave them together. I added a strip across the back bumber to give me a little more visibility.
