My 2016 has hanging lights over the kitchen island. Issues I've had to date are: folding stairs opened while driving, tire blow out with 3,000 miles, radio output C stopped working, caulking on roof was poor and had a leak in living room, 1 of the shades wouldn't stay up, a/c was short cycling (was bad thermostat), fender skirting ripping because slide is either adjust wrong or not installed correctly.

Can anyone post a close up or 2 of the passenger side slide while in where it meets the wall closest to the door. Mine closes all the way but yet I don't think it goes in as far as it should.

Castle Rock tires I assume? Got rid of mine as soon as I took delivery. Stairs opening while driving a new one for me. I have replaced the three step with a four step but have never had one open on all the campers I have had over the years.

Mine looks close to the same, maybe a little further out. Skirting has peeled away from the camper and needs to be replaced.

Dinostop, are your stairs electric?

Thinking about putting a power awning on outdoor kitchen slide. Anyone else considered doing this? Seems like it would be nice to be able to have some shade and also be able to use outdoor kitchen while raining. Also has anyone else changed there outdoor fridge door so that it opens to the left? I did on mine and I really like it this way, my wife couldn't stand it opening towards the sink. Quick simple change and she is much happier, ( happy wife happy life)

I really like your idea about the outdoor fridge door. I can't tell you how many times I have taken skin off of my knuckles because of that.

How hard was it to swap the for around?

[arter368rlbhk]

Not hard 10 min tops. There are two brackets on the back wall to hold the fridge. Take out the screw in the right side bracket, then slide fridge to the right to unhook left bracket and then fridge should slide out. Another tip is the bottom plate has a pivote pin that has to be unscrewed and rescrrewed on the back side of plat in order to flop plate to other side off the fridge. It's all really very easy all in all

Next project is slide out trey in basement compartment (I build custom cabinets as my profession). And running a wire from water heater breaker to a switch that I will install on interior control panel, so that I can turn electric water heater off and on from inside.

I like the water heater switch idea. You would think as long as Suburban has been making water heaters they could have made some design improvements. The switch and access door are about as crude as can be.

Ya really, our 2014 Coleman 314 tt had the gas and electric water heater switch next to each other on the inside main panel and it was really nice. I'm thinking it had an atwood though

My water heater has a dedicated breaker. I just switch it on and off there.
