Question New member

I'm a new member. I lost my husband in November 2021 to covid and we had purchased our 2021 Montana legacy in July 2021. I live in Colorado but my Montana is in Montana at my son’s place. It will be left there full time to be my home away from home. I’m learning a lot— this was my husband’s specialty—not mine.
2 questions—
My 2nd gray tank shows is three quarters full, even though both of my gray tank valves are open. Any thoughts?

What is the best skirting to get for the winter in a cold state?

Thank you!

You have come to the right place to ask questions - so dont be a lurker.

The general consensus here is that the gauges on the tanks - especially black and gray - is that the sensors are unreliable and generally ignored. They get crud on them and they fail to read correctly.

There was a recent thread on winter skirting - and i cant find it to provide a link right now - but someone will offer the link as well as skirting advice.

Welcome to the forum! Sorry for your loss. You are probably aware, but just in case, there is a grey tank valve near your wheels somewhere in addition to the one in the convienence center that controls the kitchen grey tank.

welcome to the forum. Reference your gray tank issue, guages are tranditionally unreliable, but gray usually more dependable than black. I would double check to see if the valve is really open. The pull handle may be out, but disconnected from the valve.
