I am nearing the end of a month-long camping trip, the shake-down cruise. No television, no cell coverage. I drove into town to check messages and see what is up here. Question - are the Seahawks from Seattle???
Located in Kentucky and Florida at present

Yes.. Glad you made it back safely, hope it was a blast!

Does this mean you're no longer in FL?  Bummer!  

INCREDIBLE GAME!!!! 3rd quarter just starting.....

Not back yet. I make my first trip to the dump station tomorrow, then the Camplite goes into storage in FL for $26/month at an rv resort. In Chicago area, it costs $129/month and that is outdoor storage!! After that, I start driving north - to all that snow - oh joy...

Who passes at the half yard line?  Turns out Coach Carroll; he just took responsibility for the call.

Will you be camping anymore this '15 season, or is that it for the year?  Be safe driving with your babies....will be praying for your well-being.[/quote]

[font color="#1932e6"]Sunshine!  Please take a break from the rum and reruns to help us out!  Though we've not yet announced it on this forum, (waiting to take pics), we'll tell you first.  We finally took possession of our new LL Axxess toy hauler yesterday.... (Is that crickets I hear from your end?  Oh, just Walking Dead rerun.)

Anyway, Pinstriper, because of your LL proboard handle, I'll chance asking you something personal, something I've not heard discussed yet on this forum.  At the risk of running afoul of LL graphics dept., I'll admit it now....here it is.....I don't like the decals on the two lengthy sides of our Axxess.  There, I said it!  Pretty sure that without a lot of trouble and expense, the factory decals are permanent for years.  So have you any ideas how decals might be embellished to better suit personal taste without voiding warranty?  [/font]

The stock graphics are just vinyl stickers. You can peel them off and add your own.

[/quote]Just as an FYI:   Part of the sales agreement when I bought mine was to have the already starting to peel graphic on the front of my camplite removed.   They offered to replace it, but I said I'd prefer it not be on there was a chance it was going to peel agian.   I've noticed some peeling/weathering of the decals on several others on the lot.    The dealer removed it perfectly.    It was a 2013 leftover I bought in July 2014.   It had only a very slight, almost inperceptable trace of the outline due to paint fading.    I doubt I could even take a picture to show it.    you need to know it's there and see it in person at the right angle.  There was absolutely no scratches, etc. in the clearcoat.    I'm sure it would be a challenge to remove all the decals on a trailer due to the size and quantity, but don't rule out getting a body shop or decal shop to remove them without too much hassle if they are relatively fresh and "unbaked" in the sun.   


PS:  Patriots suck.

pinstriper

Yeah, I think one of those "wrap" places could do something pretty awesome.

Pretty spendy, but awesome.

What warranty could possibly be voided ? The one on the decals that you want to get rid of ?

Anyhoo, the factory warranty will be expired before you figure out what you want in the new design, so...win-win ?

My very first dump station dump went smoothly, thanks to the man in the RV behind me. I was having problems getting a secure connection with the sewer tube, so he offered his help. Once the connection to the trailer outlet was tight, everything flowed smoothly. The black tank flush worked. After the grey tank was emptied, the man helped me get the sewer tube disconnected, and I was on my way.

I didn't read this post until after this was all over, so no pictures. I never even thought about taking a picture. I was SO HAPPY I didn't cause a spill and that everything went well. Now I want to go to work on that bayonet connection...
