I keep a bottle jack in my truck for tire changes. It can easily jack up the tongue of the trailer in a pinch. But yes, most of the ones I've seen to have a manual option.

I had my tire replaced last year and my Discount Tire didn't carry them either. I brought my own and they installed them for me. No big deal.

I have a Brita pitcher and the water is good enough for us. Some places are definitely worse than others. Zero water supposedly a good choice also. Not sure if they have a carbon filter in there also.

If you bought the camper from a dealer they should install a WDH for free. They are about $700 give or take.

I would have hoped they told you to get a WDH for that vehicle! :eek:

Yes, the normal price is $548.99. Have to pay freight $85 also. On sale now (I guess because of the off-season) comes complete with mounting hardware except Awning Rail.

Thinking out loud here:
As far as pooling water goes could you not just mount the awning rail up a bit higher so there is more of a slope for the water to drain?
