I'm liking the Rockwoo. You'll get lots of attention and double takes.
Dont have decal removal experience but sure someone who does will be here soon.

What I want to do is remove the rest of the decals from the front cap, I'm looking for suggestions on the best way to remove them. The RV not being very old and shaded most of the time in storage may not have much of a ghost yet. When washing it I use car wash soap in a bucket of warm water and a soft brush on a pole, rinsing with the garden hose. The decals have been treated a few time with 303, pressure washing has never happened on this unit. Any suggestion on how to remove the remaining decals? Thanks in advance.

Must have been a bad moment when you saw that happen.

In the meantime if anybody asks, tell them is it made by the far eastern division of FR.

I'd take all of it off. The RockWoo, Signature and Ultralite.

Google 'decal eraser wheel'
It's a rubberized wheel you mount in a drill or other rotary tool.
Removes decals and doesn't harm the surface when used properly.

Hair dryer or heat gun works great also. Any adhesive left can be removed with WD40.

This type of trailers (swivel trailer) put a lot of strain on the frame of the tow trailer, when you make turns. A lot more than a conventional trailer of the same size. Because the way the tow trailer has to drag the swivel trailer around when it makes the turns it is trying to bend the frame at the wheels. And longer the tow trailer the more the affect. My .02

Didn't mean to derail the thread with frame concerns.

The Morton guys did make progress on the Sandpiper house....

Not bad for two days work of a two man crew.

I removed the telephone jack plate and replaced it with one that has HDMI and USB connections. They go directly to my TV. Now I can use my laptop to play Blu-rays (which my Genesis 3.0 can't) or movies on the HD. I can also plug in a thumb drive with pics or movies. I pipe the sound back to the Genesis for the surround sound via the coaxial connection.

actually, not today, but on Thursday I installed the Blue Streak system,.....not for the chemical affect to the black tank but because we like the blue water and the pleasant scent,.....we've never had an odor problem, so have never found it necessary to use chemicals for that purpose, but we do like having the blue water in the bowl, we're are in a cg now since Thursday and thru the weekend and find the Blue Streak to be a nice addition to our trailer time,.....did not know about it before, so to whoever first brought it to this thread, we say thanks................

Nothing to the Sabre but moved to our new home on Wednesday and have been getting things organized and making it home ever since. Will probably be a few weeks before we think about the camper. But anyways...
Happy Campin!

6000 miles with mine. No issues. If you have any questions from someone that actually uses one of these, let me know.
