One valve controls both black water tanks, so that's not an option.

Every time we open the door to our trailer, our dog tries to escape.  I have searched for "doggy doors" for campers but haven't found anything.  Any suggestions?

Hey guys.  We recently transitioned from a bumper pull trailer to a fifth wheel with a bath and a half that has two black water tanks.  The salesman advised me to purchase an additional sewer hose and Y adapter, since many parks don't have dual sewer hookups (which I did).  However, I'm finding...

Any guess as to the difference in annual maintenance costs?

I am in the market for a truck to tow a 12k pound (dry) fifth wheel. We only expect to pull the trailer 3-5 times per year, therefore some have advised me that no more than we'll be towing the additional cost in a diesel, and in particular, the additional maintenance costs aren't justified.

Anyone have suggestions on how to remove factory installed exterior decals that have started to peel off?

Hello.  I'm relatively new to RVing (we bought our used Keystone Laredo last summer) and have a question about repairing water damage: I noticed a wall in the master bedroom starting to bubble and further investigation revealed a leak from the roof, which I sealed with some epoxy and everything...
