Title: New to forum with a 2014 VRV 8.5x24 (Axxess)

Hi Everybody,

New to the forum, look forward to learning if anyone is using their trailer in a similar way to us.
We've camped ours quite a bit including big trips out west to Utah, Colorado. We also race a Polaris RZR and the trailer gets used for that a lot.
It's been largely trouble free except recently the straps/ supports for the gray water and black water tanks have failed and most of the taped seams are now open- curious if anyone else has had these issues?
Look forward to being on the forum with all of you!

When you say taped seams, you're referring to the vertical seams where the aluminum exterior panels meet? I do have 2 spots where the top panel is bowed out a bit. I'll grab a pic to give you an idea. I haven't looked into it yet.

How/where did the water tank straps fail?
