Show and Tell
We will have a show and tell again this year. It will run all during the rally. There is no need to sign up here. If you want to participate, see me at the meet and greet. You will be given a ribbon to tie to your hitch indicating that you are interested in showing off the modifications you have done to your rig. During the rally, people can get together individually to view the mods.
EDIT: You can post a list of your mods on this thread and it would also help if you printed out the list of your mods on a sheet of paper and displayed it on your rig during the rally.
BUMP
For all those that would like to show off their improvements at the show and tell, don't forget to list the mods on a paper that can be posted on your rig for others to see. See you all soon.

Jim,
I'll start the list. Don't have much but here is what has been done so far!
In the Rig:
1. Closet rod added to closet instead of the single hanger loops that are OEM.
2. Adjustable cabinet shelves around the top cabinets.
3. Two base runner/guide on the floor of the bedroom closet doors and also foam strips to the doors so they do not separate and come apart.
4. PVC drying bars in tub/shower area to hang wet towels, swim trunks and etc.
5. Cabinet glass inserts on cabinet doors darkened.
On the Tow Vehicle:
1. Blue Ox Bed Saver
2. Fold out tailgate ladder
There may be additional stuff IF I get them done before the Fall Rally. I'll post them here if I add more!

My 5th Wheel is very new (May 2015) so the modifications have been minimal but the major ones are:
1. Mor-ryde full length storage compartment sliding cargo tray with a home-built four shelf storage unit.
2. Mor-ryde 50-amp electric cord reel (manual wind) in small storage compartment under hall (unit is a 3721 RL).
3. An external two canister water filter system (pictures and drawings will be available for anyo0ne who wants them)
Also have a 2015 Ford F-450 with a 5th wheel hauler bed with tons of storage space.
