I guess I did this a little backwards, I posted a couple of times with out introducing myself. I live on Long Island in NY. Been camping for over 40 years and been RV-ing for about 20 years.

I just received a Camplite 21RBS, I really liked the idea of a trailer with no wood. I also own a 6.0.

I had a couple of concerns which I posted and I appreciate the feedback. The trailer was purchased in Fla., ( I live in NY ) from Travel Camp RV. They were easy to deal with and handled the transaction without incident. Had a transport company bring the trailer to NY, no issues there. I did catch a couple of flaws and a dent in the trailer frame. I looked on the Travel Camp web site photo's of the trailer and you can make out the dent in their inventory pic's, so the frame issue was not from transport.

All that being said, I really like the trailer, this is the 4th RV I've owned and two out of the four ended up with water damage, I'm pretty diligent about maintenance and I still missed the leaks until there was considerable damage. I bought all the RV's new.

So far I've done a couple of mod's to the trailer, nothing big, reenforced the battery tray, added a winterizing kit,and some hooks and a shower caddy in the bathroom.

I posted a pic of the by-pass for winterizing. You basically use it to fill the lines with a type of antifreeze after draining and blowing out the lines. BTW, I only use about 15lbs of air pressure when blowing out the lines.
