New Owner from Houston Area

Hello all,

MY name is Dan and we are fromn the Houston area. My wife Kelly, daughter Maddy and I just picked up our new to us 2005 Salem LE today. We are moving up from a 1991 Fleetwood/Coleman Pop-up. The family is very happy with our purchase.

We are having one problem with the black holding tank not dumping, Iam going to post in the maintenance section about this topic.

I have attached a pic of the camper it is a 29BHSS.

Look forward to talking with everyone here.

Dan and Kelly

Welcome Dan, Kelly, and Maddy! I am from the Houston area also...Roman Forest, just up the Eastex Freeway. Looks like a fine trailer, and a great upgrade from a PUP. Enjoy, and looking forward to seeing more from you.

Welcome Dan and Family from way up here in the land of the big snows. Always glad to hear how warm it is, where we are not, come winter time. It will keep us in a camping mood year round. Hope you find (and I'm sure you will) all the answers you need here. Old Guys

C'mon chevy02...don't you know!??! That's his "slide belt"...to keep his slide in while traveling!

But seriously, I kinda wondered also. Enquiring minds want to know!

that "line" is actually the rubber molding trim piece that should be in the upper groove nextto eth roof line, it has pulled out from previous owner and never repaired, I may just cut it off at both ends, it is only cosmetic.

good to hear from everyone

thank you for the replies

You may be able to put it back in and keep it "stuck" with a bit of lap sealant.

And WELCOME to FRF!
