On my way home this afternoon, we stopped on a side of a country road with our new cf32bl FW. The door side tires were fairly lower than the other side. My wife noticed water coming from the rear underbelly. Where that water could be coming from???
Thank you!

Most likely from the fresh water storage tank. In most of the units it is slightly ahead of the rear bumper, your fresh water fill may be at that same point. You could have a crack in the tank or the either the hose that fills the tank or the one that leads to the pump may have come disconnected.

I have had a little water under the rig after driving in heavy rain. The rain gets on top of the membrane and drips down wherever there is a hole (plumbing pipes, low point drain pipes, etc). It is normally not a lot, so if you had more than a gallon or two, it probably isn't that.

My guess is the fresh water tank. When my trailer was new I had leakage in the rear when I had to fill the tank before dry camping. It was fixed until some time later found a screw rubbing the tank make a hole.

We had the same problem last year after driving on wet pavement.
When we got home I dropped the belly liner and released the remaining water.
After things dried out, we charged the water system and filled the tanks (black water flush also); there was not a leak from anywhere. We figured that it was road spray. We did some chalking and are hoping for the best.
We are planning on installing a cheap bathroom vent fan in the basement and exhaust it down through the pipe chase. Then when we park we can force air in above the belly liner and dry things out. There are several holes already punched in the frame that will vent air or allow rodents to enter. I will be using gorilla tape to secure a small piece of 1/4" hardware cloth over these vent holes. This after a pine marten decided to use our propane cabinet for food storage. Dead gopher do smell worse than propane.
