I wish my backing was that easy I drive down my alley as close to my fence as I can then hang a left trying not to hit dumpster or neighbors fence then pull up far enough to cut trl at about 45degrees into 9ft opening of the gate trying to push the back of the 5er where it needs to go without hitting front of truck on gate all while the wife plays hide and seek she hides while I seek it a miracle I haven’t hit anything yet

Dropping it off at the dealer to get the door and other things fixed from when it got broken into. Luckily it happened this time of year instead of the spring on. Only used it once then a few weeks later it was broken into. Glad to finally get it all fixed up.

That sucks! Hopefully they didn’t do to much damage.

Yes! Yes! Yes to the hide and seek. This works well with my bride as well.
LOL...
Ah yes, the day she berated me for not pulling forward 3'. When I pointed to the tree of the same size in front of me, I got the look..., as it is our yard, it will be gone before she gets off work one fine day this summer.

We haven't had a chance to get out with our new Flagstaff 831CLBSS yet. But here is a good shot of our Salem unit we just traded in. This was from one of our trips out west year before last.

Not too bad really. Broke the door and jam, ripped both TVs off the wall ruining the walls, ripped the sound bar off the wall, damaged the cabinet surrounding trying to get the radio/dvd player out, stole the floor rug, stole our blankets on the bed and the weird thing was they stole two cushions from our dinette.
All in all my ins and the dealer have been great to deal with.

We saw that on the news. I can not figure out how the camper jumped up onto the edge. It does not even looked damaged any. Does anyone have any ideas on how?

From the look of the black marks to the lower left it looks like it was sliding sideways toward the vehicles left, they were travelling left to right, and jumped up that way, the worst damage is probably on the far side.

There's a whole thread going on this. The trailer was "pitted" (hit on the rear side) by another car, causing the entire rig to spin around and the trailer to jump the rail. Girl driving the other car was ticketed.

For reference if you're trying to get the same results.

I can’t believe the dealer didn’t tell this driver that tow mirrors are necessary for a setup like this. But I’m sure they were told that since they didn’t have tha crew cab then there’s enough payload for anything. (Pirated from Facebook)
