New Flagstaff Owner in the UK
Hi all,
I've just registered on here for the first time since buying my 2004 Flagstaff 176ED last summer.
I live in Derbyshire, England and this is my very first trailer.
As far as I can tell, it was imported from the US when new and has been adapted to use the 240v electrics over here.
We've taken it on a few weekend trips so far and slowly getting the hang of it, as well as working out a few small niggles.
After a little bit of work I've got the water and furnace working again, so now everything works perfectly.
I'm very excited for our next camping season and I'm sure I'll have plenty of questions to ask on here.
I look forward to speaking with you all!

Congrats on your pop-up, but I'm more impressed with that Wagoneer!

Do you find it troublesome that the door to the camper is on the 'wrong' side for you guys. I mean, here in the states, if your door was on other side, you would probably step out if it into the sewer pipe, electric box, or your neighbors picnic table.

Thanks! The Wagoneer is a bit of a work in progress, but towed the trailer happily.

I've not had any problems with it so far. All the sites we've used previously have been strange layouts, or pretty far from neighbors.
If it's ever a problem we will just turn it 180 degrees by hand; the trailer is light enough that pushing it is easy with two of us.

Welcome from the southern U.S.
I'm a fan of Traveling K in New Zealand and I've seen her turn her caravan around on campsites, and with that unit it shouldn't be a gotcha at all.
