My first OOPS!!!!
We've had our 2015 Apex Nano 193BHS TT for about 3 weeks now. I've been very proud of the fact that it has had 0 issues, the Progressive Industries EMS was a synch to install, and the trailer is parked up next to our house all cozy like.

So tonight I go to turn the lawn sprinkler and drip system on. The sprinker valve box is on the ground, immediately next to the left tire of the TT.....

Well apparently a 4,000lb trailer puts enought weight down that it pushed the dirt and gravel into the valve box, and basically crushed it. Now I have no sprinkler system or drip system and summer is starting soon.

DOH!

That "punchline" was so much better than the flooded trailer I envisioned.
