About the water pump, it sounds like you got a "Texas special" - - - one not designed to be winterized. :)

Maybe they forgot to put in the drains like they forgot to install furnace exhausts on some trailers?

Have you called the dealer and asked him?

I'll start off by saying I don't know anything about this. When the trailer is off the hitch, you control the degree of being level by using the tongue jack. Then you select the height of the ball...

You're right about winterizing. It's a pain to do, and we're out of commission from the first freeze in the fall to the last freeze in the spring. Or we can travel without water in the pipes. An...

I've seen a big plastic tank on wheels that you pull around with a tow rope, being used at campgrounds. I suppose you can buy one at an RV store.

Is that what you meant with "dump the black tank...

Yes, I braved the cold, and tackled the decal. Yes, the hair dryer worked great, and yes, the decal came off amazingly well. Yes, I nearly froze my rear off, but my hands were nice and warm.

If I understand you correctly, the porch light fixture showed signs of melting, and when the lights went out, that included the porch light.

I'd start by removing the porch light fixture, and...

That's great. Thanks for the info. Now I'll have to wait until it's warmer outside, although today was in the 50s.

Good idea about that topper for your slide-out. But are you going to have to...

Only question I might ask about winterizing is whether you followed a manual? My normal mode is to guess at it, THEN look at a manual. A bit more challenging.
