Too late now to change my mind lol
My garage the two windows are on the same side.
I wonder if my pump is by the water heater? I'll have to check. I hate not being able to park the camper at my house but just not enough room.
When I parked it this past Sunday I am pretty sure I forgot to turn off the gas so I am sure the Auto fridge is burning my tank. I dislike not having a switch like my old camper to turn the fridge on/off. I don't have power at the storage lot so I have to remember to also turn the switch of under the nose so all those "cool" LED switches don't kill my battery. It's not bad when I am camping every one to two weeks but all winter I am sure I would have a dead battery because of those.
I never covered my old toy hauler but I really want this one to last so I am still trying to decide which route to take. A cover will weigh a lot and it's a pain to do but I know it would be worth it in the long run.

I'm using a 1999 F250 XLT crew cab 4x4 with 7.3l diesel. My diesel still needs some work but it does move it with that massive diesel in it. I think LB TN is using a Chevy 2500. Can't remember what size engine though.

I haven't weighed mine yet since I haven't put the Harley in it yet. It may be spring before I weigh it.

LB TN yours may not have the issue. I posted more pics in my album of the toy hauler. I also took pics of the storage wall and show the water heater and water pump. They made it kind of a pain to winterize. I had to remove just about everything from the pass through storage in order to get the wall down.

Not sure why some got rotated. I'll get the hang of this eventually.
I ordered a winterize kit off Amazon for about $15. It is all screw on right at the pump so I don't have to cut any tubing. I'll be doing this soon as it will start getting below freezing within the next few weeks.

Electra glide where u able to winterize? If so how many gallons did it take? Don't forget to winterize your outside hose in the docking station. We're going camping next weekend, not quite cold enough yet down here to shut down yet. After that trip more than likely I will have to winterize ours too. I'll go & check out the other pic's that you posted in your album. Also today while driving home from work I saw another Vengeance 5th wheel going down the interstate, cool to see another one.

I just winterized last night. I bought 6 gallons and only used about 2. I drained then used a compressor to blow the lines then ran rv anti freeze threw the lines. I did the outside shower also. The low point drains on mine are clear under the middle by the rear axles. I might but a elbow on those and move them so I don't have to crawl all the way under just to open those valves. IDK what these manufacturers are thinking when they do some of this stuff.

Glad you were able to winterize. Iam with you on the way they design some things. Our old Toyhauler was easy to access the hot water heater and waterpump were located under the kitchen sink. I was told that it would take 2 gallons. Thanks again for all your help.

Electra glide I was just outside going to take my lock off the docking station and how did you get yours off? I don't want to break it, but it's probably something simple.

Vengeance

We bought the Vengeance 36A11 2015 and really like it. It had several bugs when we first got it but we have worked them out. Two main things were the Air
And batteries. The first week they had to replace one of the units and second week they had to install dampers to direct the air in the right places. The last thing that drove me nuts was the batteries. I went through 6 Batteries until I figured out the second battery was not tied into the 7way and would not recharge. The dealer did not understand how to hook it up. Just so happen the factory guy was at the dealer ship and he explain it. So if you have to batteries and inventor you must tie the two together with jumpers and run the batteries in series( positive in one and negative out the other. Hope this help those who run into this in the future.

Kellymc thanks for the heads up & your post. Iam not familiar with your model # but Iam assuming it's a 5th wheel. Mine only came with 1 battery & as far as the air-conditioning units I guess we'll have to wait awhile to use them lol. I did warranty up on this unit meaning I bought plenty of extended warranty just in case. Iam with you I think these units are put together well considering today's rv industry.

Use pliers on the back side. It's a push out tab that holds the lock in. You should be able to squeeze it enough to push the lock back out.

I have a 1999 F250 CCSB 4x4 7.3
