Full timers for now.

Just wanted to say hello.
Really enjoy the club posts.
Wife and I lost our home in Conway S.C to the flood waters of hurricane Florence in September.
We decided to go with a RV in our back yard while the house is going thru the process of being lifted and repaired.
We found a beautiful 15 3750FL , one owner that had been traded in two days prior to our shopping trip.
Time to start shopping for a truck to pull it with.

Welcome and happy "camping". Be sure to read about tow vehicles and trailer weights since you are truck shopping. Everything that can be said on the subject has been said in this forum.

Welcome to the forum! The drip pan issue is on the cable slides and seems to be limited to High Countries as far as i can tell.

It involves years '17, '18 and '19 using the BAL/Norco cable slides

Quick question.
After being set up for a month or so, I need to relevel the rig.
We have a six jack level up system , with 2×12 tripled blocks underneath jack foot.
Question is do I just need to go into auto level mode or do I back up to reconnect to truck mode and start over. Wasn't able to find anything about this scenario in the manual or on the DVD.
Thanks
Kevin

When I’ve releveled I just hit auto level and step back.
Didn’t bring in slides, just make sure nothing is sitting under a slide or the frame.

I have found that when releveling with DW in bed, I need to find something to do the rest of the day far far away from camp.
