They want you to know that it is a Rolls Royce............ Wouldn't want you to think that is a Bently or some lower class car......

Get to the campground and start to hook-up and low and behold someone pulled my black handle and pushed it back in while I was stopped at a truck stop taking a walk...

So luckily I have a cap thats clear and has a garden hose cap as well. But it was still a mess and a poo shower as I tried to keep things contained... I hate people. Click image for larger version

Interesting, that must be the new trend with all the newer RVers. The old time prankster would pull the pin on the hitch and sit back and watch.

Yeah it is a shame. Amazing how nasty people can be. And I know exactly where it would have been because we were not away from our vehicle otherwise. I also am pretty sure I know the trucker as well because I saw him pass by our truck when we were stopped. Sad I didn't see it or he would have been getting a piece of my pranks.

That looks like what I observed years ago at Cumberland Mountain SP. Sites were oriented at 90 degrees to the road with about a 3' drop in 25'. Most trailers in that section were jacked as high as they could go and still were very out of level. It's not a place I'd ever consider returning to.

Actually not to bad, as they did use two bricks side by side, on the forward post they did it correctly alternating directions of the bricks, however the back stack appears to be all the same and not alternating.

Beautiful Remodel

Saw this in Brewster, MA. The owner remodeled himself. Very impressive job, even has full size raingutters. Not sure the original model or make. The husband was not there. The wife stated he did it all himself and there are no more leaks!

Maybe that’s how I lost my whole wheel this year going down on I80. We had just stopped at a rest stop right before I lost it!!!!

Probably not a wheel,they'd have to have a lig wrench. More.than likely your lugs got loose and sheared off the studs.

He should never attempt to move it as with all the extra weight of the wood, the frame will collapse - most likely.

Once moved a 14x70 mobile home the owner built a block fireplace in the middle of the living room....& refused an interior walk thru prior to movement - had him sign off on the move order to the refusal. 6 miles down the road, the frame gave out. He sued - and lost.

Have set mobile homes by lakes on side hills where once level - one could walk under one end or the other.....and I'm 6 foot tall.

Great he didn't use wood on sides or steel on the roof. Fiberglass siding and aluminum roofing shouldn't stress the undercarriage.

That was a prank in some cities. Loosening lug nuts.
