I have heard nothing as to why those hours. Agriculture/Labor?

Isn't that the truth!!! My 2019 290rl developed a stress crack above the driver side slide out not covered! Funny thing, the first 13 months of ownership they had 8 months in service I've used 2 times then Covid struck, now I wanted to travel Camping World can't
even get in till December. Looking elsewhere for service

2017 Wildcat 38MBX

Just swapped to our 2017 Wildcat 38MBX from an 2021 Winnebago Minnie. We wanted more room and so forth. We are enjoying it very much however having to replace the ground control controller here next week and just today replaced one of the gear wheels under the passenger side slide.

Any tips/tricks to get the slide all flush again? One end of it is slightly off compared to the other end of it.

Did a quick search since my 2017 versions are broken at the attachment points. Here's a few that popped up:

https://www.camperid.com/dual-axle-f...5B2%5D=Wildcat


https://www.rvpartssierra.com/forest...erglass-978ABS


Seems to be around $200 or so.

Ours is currently parked under its cover at home. We brought it home yesterday, three days early from Tickfaw State Park after they closed the park because of Hurricane Ida.


WE are not out of the woods, we are in the "Cone" and will have some effects from the storm. I believe our winds will reach only 100 MPH rather than the 120+ east of us where the eye will pass.


We have everything loose picked up, locked behind doors of garage and shop buildings. Truck is inside shop, car is inside garage.


We have done all we can do.........wish us luck!

SeaDog, you implied the member you quoted now has an SOB but he said he “Just swapped to our 2017 Wildcat 38MBX”.

My Wildcat is on the move from U.P. of Michigan to Arizona this Sunday. Time to go back to the desert for the winter.
