Folks, I just wanted to thank the Camp Inn folks, namely Cary, Craig and Marty and crew for the incredible job they did in building our 550 Ultra and spending the day training us when we picked it up, and some time with us a day later. This just shows us that they are willing to do anything to...

Yo, A question came to mind as we were leveling the trailer yesterday. How anal are you about putting the bubble in the middle of the level? The Lynx levelers I guess would work in most cases, hover, when we put a level to the trailer, we raised the right side to where the bubble was in the...

Hi all, Just wanted to post a few updates. 1. Since our last name is Tripp, we decided to name our brand new 550 Ultra the "Trippster" Make sense? 2. We just completed our first overnighter! It took us awhile to do this. First of all we didn't think we would be camping this early in the...

Folks, I just applied for insurance quotes from the Good Sam Club and was surprised by the prices! We are not a high risk applicant, no accidents or anything. For 6 months, $1000 deductible on Comprehensive and $1000 deductible on collision. with full replacement cost covered and $3000...

Boy look at those new hinges too.....aren't they purrrrrrdy?

Thanks to Evan and the Camp Inn folks, Cary, Craig and Betsey, and all the participants for making this a very friendly, cooperative and informative forum. Everyone has such a wonderful attitude in helping others in the forum, providing a wonderful Christmas spirit throughout the year...

Fpoole, This is the article that became the catalyst for me to search for a teardrop. As a photographer I needed a way to travel around to great locations without spending an arm and a leg on hotels. I just didn't think I would be spending so much on a TD. Haha. Oh well, you can't take it...

Pat, I was all ready to go with the SMart Tracker until I read on their website that the software is only Windows compatible, not Mac. Bummer. We only have Macs at home. Back to Plan B Ken in Louisville

Pat, Perfect. Our TD is a month or so behind yours. I might do the same thing as you. In addition I would like my wife to know where I am when I am out alone. So I plan to have her track me on a laptop when I use my IPhone. So you would only purchase locates when or if your TD is stolen...

Pat, Have you gone ahead with installing the GPS tracking device?

When running temperature checks, I would suggest add small bottles water to the interior then take temps over time. Just my two cents. Thanks for the info! Ken in Louisville

PS: oh one more thing. How do you handle rain gear without the bed and interior getting all wet. Btw, we will NOT be getting the side tent. Thanks Ken in Louisville

Yo, In anticipation of getting our TD in march, I think I figured out how to handle footwear, coming and going from the TD at night. I think we will be using Crocks in the warm weather and leave them outside at night. We can then change into heavier footwear from the TV during the day. I am...

AlCat, Perfect. Thanks for the info! Ken in Louisville

Jim, Perfect. Thanks for the info. That really helps! Can't wait to get our TD! Ken in Louisville

Jim, Our plan in March, is to pick you the TD at Necedah. Have the factory wrap it for the 10 hr trip back to Ky. When we get home we would apply two treatments of Woody Wax XXX over several days. Make sense?

Jim, So are you suggesting walbernising first and then woody waxing when picking up from the factory or simply woody waxing twice when picking up?

Jim, Would you say the initial woody wax detailing was worth it in Necedah? Thanks

Yo, What is everyone using for care of the cabin and galley wood? Is there a specific brand of wood cleaner, wax or protectant to get or avoid? Thanks all! Ken in Louisville

Ok, I am convinced. Thanks for your explanation. I do have have faith in people. What you all have said makes a great deal of sense. Thanks. Ken.
