Slide-out Genny

I have a bed slider that allows me to pull out my 4K generator, close my topper and run the genny in free air. No humping it in or out but one time!

Trailer mileage..

I would not care either, except that when I sold my last ROO, the prospective buyers seemed to always ask how many miles it had been towed. It was probably best that I didn't give out my best guess...
