Design Change Question and Poll

I have not seen this happen. Most of my experience in the rain has been stationary and not driving. But the times I have driven through the rain I did not notice any water in the storage area or in the gutters.

 

This happened to us but that was before we had the new seal across the bottom of the hatch. Hasn't happened since.

 

We haven't had this problem at all!

 

Have never seen rainwater in those gutters, even on the one occasion where we got some in the cabin from driving a couple of days through torrential rain.

 

We have not had this problem.

 

Last summer we drove from Oklahoma City back to the east coast of Iowa, Quad Cities (700 miles), heavy driving rain for a major portion of it..WALL-E was dry as a bone inside and out. The only place I have noticed signs of water are in the rear under counter storage area around one of the srews, but there has been no change in it. R

 

We have not had this problem (though we have only experienced about 20 hours of rain, total, in over 100 nights)

 

Yes, I have rain water enter my galley by running down the rear wall of the galley onto the upper shelving and into the footwell of the main cabin. Not much fun when your bed gets wet. As recommended by Craig I drilled five small holes in the aluminum channel inside both of the upper cabin storage compartments and filled the channel with caulk. This did not solve my problem so I drilled two more sets of five hole in the channel from the galley side just above the CampInn serial number plaque and agin filled the channel with as much caulk as I could force into the channel. This reduced the amount of water entering the galley but did not completely eliminate my leak.

 

Let me add one more thing. The rain water enters the cabin while we are parked not while we are traveling down the road. This only happens during heavy rain. This has happened maybe 8 times in 230 nights of camping.

 

Never say never, I guess.

We drove through a couple of fast-moving, but heavy downbursts on I-70 heading west into Colorado a couple of months ago and, the next morning, found a rag in the bottom of the right-hand bin that was wet. Couldn't have been much water, maybe a half-liter. First time in 12,000 miles. Battery compartment was dry, as was the left bin.

 

Poll Question: Have you had rain water enter your under counter lid gutters after driving in the rain? No, not that I can recall.

 

We are right at 7,500 miles traveled with our 560 and have been caught in several heavy downpours on the road and while camping. We have not had a problem with rainwater in the galley. Thanks for a top notch designed & built teardrop, Camp-Inn!
