Question Re-caulking the roof seams

Hey Vern, I hear you. We had latches that had the catch installed on the side but the clip was along the top. Not sure what you'd call that. LOL

Re: To cover, or not to cover - that is the question...

We had an Adco cover for our previous rig but we used it to keep the sun off the roof and caulking. They aren't waterproof, so I really don't see the need to cover in the winter.

Re: Washing RV at campground

What about the waterless car wash stuff? I actually did use that on my pickup in a campground. It isn't cheap but it sure does work well. I use it for between washes on the wife's black MDX. Might...

Lightbulb Re: Washing RV at campground

I've used wet drier sheets to get the bugs off the front and shined it up with some Voom but haven't ever got the hose/bucket/brush out while camping.

Re: Just got back....

When's the next trip? :)
