short 7-pin cable extender I'm using the same 7-pin style trailer cable that no doubt all of you are to provide electricity, turn signals, etc to my Camp Inn 550 from my Scout 800A tow vehicle. Things currently work fine, but even in the current setup, I'd like a little more maintenance slack...

Bump on this. Recommendations are appreciated. Its been a while since I've posted here. I've been going thru some serious health issues, so my Camp Inn has just been in storage. Health is currently manageable, at least for a while, so without getting into any serious details that no one...

I've/we've discovered the same thing. Discussed in an earlier thread, we had out 550 up in the mountains (9000+ elevation), and discovered that the 550 is extremely well insulated. We'd planned for cold, and the 1st night we used a large, his-and-hers sleeping bag, bag liner, and a couple of...

Less improved campground is an understatement. If you visit, you'll want to bring a shovel to bury any waste. There are no designated actual camp ground, just nice flat spots where others have set up camp. We were there in mid September, and per comments, middle of deer season, last day...

Thanks for the comments - this is one of the areas we spent a couple of days exploring. The pics really do not do the area justice, but if you have the opportunity, I promise that there are some beautiful views. Davis Willow We drove 17 miles back into the mountains here. Aired tires down...

follow up on my earlier post. As commented earlier, Cary gave me a URL for replacement wheels. I replaced my wheel that didn't look the best, and I also purchased a 2nd wheel as a full sized spare. If you've got room, at least for me the full size spare brings a lot of piece of mind. Just...

Wow ....... and you use all that stuff at once? Do your feet fit up under the galley still? its tight already at the foot end.

Thanks again Jenn - I will check that Millard mattress out.

Thank you for the reply Jenn. We've been hitting up Amazon since our return home, and honestly its an overwhelming option thing. I figure between hitting up the archives + this question, hope to get some good options then narrow things down from there. Thanks for the tri-fold comment also...

I've had my 2014 550 since March, and we've taken it out for several one night and also weekend stays. We've just came back from a (7) day trip up in the mountains, taking our 550 as our sleeping arrangements. It's been our longest trip, and honestly, neither me nor my wife were happy due to...

Disclaimer: I'm sure part of this will come across as rude or mean, but I assure you that is not my intent. I purchased my 550 (including Domestic) from the nicest widow lady you'd ever want to meet. She had used the 550 making many trips with her young sons. Unfortunately, it appears she had...

thanks for the reply. Never know unless you ask.

So I was just re-installing my Alcan cover and hooking on the underside fasteners in preparation for a trip. My 550 is stored outside, so I take the Alcan cover off for inside storage when not in use. Anyway, while underside, I see that the trailer underside is, what appears to be raw...

Thanks for the comments Lipster

I think your last statement really says it all. I have a 2014 550, and I am not the original owner. And when dealing with my seller, I was not the 1st serious purchaser. I was second. The 1st potential buyer really liked it, but the show stopper for him was the lack of a sink. Apparently...

Hmmmm................ Thank you for your response, this, in particular is something I hadn't considered. And these were comments by doctors/medical researchers in an official article? If so, certainly I would fall back and (yet again) revise my understanding. OTOH, and if not, my initial...

This is solely a "devil's advocate" reply, and is by no means meant or implied to be argumentative, but solely for the purpose of discussion and opinion sharing. I ponder, is the coronavirus exposure risk, camping or otherwise, 0% or 100%? What I mean by that, is honestly, this virus has...

I'm of the same mindset. No sink and I'm happy to have one less thing I have to worry about. Same goes for a built in restroom, not that one would fit in a tear drop. Love my 550, and have nothing bad to say about it. However, if I wanted more of that type of stuff, I would have been...

Hmmmm....... no doubt that velcro is someone's future, it just isn't mine. Way too noisy and wears out too quickly. Magnets OTOH, will generally last a life time. No doubt you, or someone here could prove me wrong, but they would really have to try hard (to destroy the magnets). :)

we have (3) canvas pilot bags. On any given trip, we'll take one, two or all three, based on distance and length of trip, plus for varying weather conditions. When we take the tear drop, the pilot bags travel in the tear drop, leaving additional space/making it easier to find stuff in the back...
