Question Black tank mysteriously filling?

We bought a 2018 Sunset Trail 26SI last fall. Used it once last year and once again this spring. Our spring trip was over Memorial day, full hookups. Before we left the campsite to head home, we...

I agree, they are handy and we have never had an issue with the signal either. It's going to take me a while to get use to using it though after years of relying on my mirrors and my backup captain -...

Question Fireplace Safety

Our new 2018 Grand Reserve came with a fireplace. We used the trailer a few times last fall and really enjoyed the use of the fireplace as a space heater. Recently, I read a post on a Facebook RV...

Mark, I've only had the trailer and camera for 2 trips thus far, but if my memory is correct, my camera only comes on when I'm in reverse, or when I have my running lights on. So, if I want to use...

It's been a while for me, but it seems to me that you need to make sure your running lights are on. Turn on the headlights and see if that turns on the camera.

For those folks reading this in the future. On the new trailers you don't need to buy the bracket. Just get the camera. Install is maybe 15 minutes. Camera works great.

Hi Nick,

Our dealer did a poor job explaining how to use the system. I'm trying to read through the Lippert Manual. Do you know which system is on the Sunset Trail trailers?

Ground Control 3.0?...

Auto Level Jacks

Today we picked up our new 2018 Grand Reserve, 26SI. It has the auto leveling feature, but what surprised me was how close to the pavement the jacks are when completely retracted. The 2 rear jacks...

Spare tire location

Today we picked up our new 2018 Grand Reserve, 26SI. We noticed that they now put the spare tire under the trailer, centered, behind the axles.

I'm not really fond of this location. Looks like it...

We've had the ST 507 and love it. Not a real long trailer, but highly recommend it. Saved us once already from trailer damage when the right rear tire blew out in the UP of Michigan.

Anyone know if this dangerous design flaw has been fixed on the new Crossroads RVs?

We have one on order and this is pretty scary. Does anyone from the company follow this forum?

One of my favorite options on our 2012 F150 is the 36 gallon gas tank. Pulling our current trailer we can get a bit over 300 miles per tank before I start looking for a station. We typically get...

I have the Max Tow, but not max pay. My payload per the door sticker is 1786 I believe. Max pay was only available with the longer bed and unfortunately, that wouldn't fit in my garage ;)

Will do. I wonder if CR has any control over the tires since they get the frame etc. from Lippert. I'm assuming Lippert puts the tires on?
