Crack in divider wall under kitchen sink in 2027…. looking for input on a diy fix…

Is there an easyish fix for something like this? Seems the dealer and myself both missed this. Investigated myself… thin particle board like divider…I would prefer NOT to tow this two hours back to the dealer if possible. It doesn’t need to be a 100% perfect fix. I looked online and found some match and patch tape that matches the color. Gonna see how close it is once it comes in. If ya’ll have been following my start to rv life… its been back to the dealer twice already. Please be kind… I’m new to this and with the rough start I’ve already had I am feeling discouraged.

What a Rat's Nest....

It's that sad time of the year for me when I have to start thinking about winterizing the trailer. This year though it's a new trailer. Earlier in the summer we bought a brand new Apex Nano 190 RBS, and we love it. So far only a few trips are in, but it's almost everything we wanted in a new trailer.

No here's my gripe... I pulled open the panel to look for the water pump and find the line for me to winterize and what do I see.... A giant mess of cables, wiring and hose, all jammed into a tiny space under the fridge.

Now I know space is limited in trailers, and the build quality can be iffy at times, but this is bad. At least take the extra few minutes to pin the wires up, use cable wrap, just do something to make it cleaner, and also safer. I just worry about if I spring a leak, it's going straight into the back of my power centre and I'm looking at a big bill to fix it all.

Ugh... I guess I have a fall/winter project on my hands to clean it up myself. Hopefully there is enough excess In there for me to do it.

Also see if you can find the pump. It's in there, somewhere....

Cat photos just for the fun of it from our last trip.

Changing storage spots?

For those of you who RV all across the US and Canada but also fly home to a home base or travel internationally, do you often change your storage spot to be closest to the airport that you will be departing from / returning to?

Why the love for impact wrenches?

Been camping a lot this year. 6 weeks as a campground host, plus other trips. Currently at the largest fair in our state for 10 days. Probably 70 nights in our camper this summer.

Why do so many feel the need to have impact wrenches for their stabilizers? I feel like I'm on pit road at a NASCAR track.

I have a cordless drill for the same task. Not nearly as loud or intrusive. Love the quiet when camping.

Thoughts? Thanks!

Help Please… Experienced RV tips?

I apologize if this is on here somewhere, but I couldn’t find anything .. My wife and I are getting ready to embark on the next stage of our life. We are selling our house and going RV full-time to go spend time with family in different parts of the country budgetary wise fifth wheel is not an option so we’ll be getting a travel trailer in low to mid 20 length range with a couple small dogs to tagalong with us. Biggest roadblock I’m seeing is a washer/dryer combo is not common in this trailer size. How have some of you season pros who do this all the time manage with the washer and dryer connections any awesome hacks out there?

Slide Out Siding

Hello. This season I’ve noticed the siding of the slide out is bowing out a bit. Not sure how long it’s been doing this. When I press on it, it bounces back. Everything feels solid under it and don’t see any signs of water.

Is this a concern? Is it just flexing? It’s in the same spot on both sides of the slide out.
