If you have an RV, camper, trailer, bumper pull, Class A, Class C, or 5th wheel, perhaps you can relate. This story of RVing mishaps falls under the user error rather than manufacturer error.
RVs are Money Pits
All we wanted was a map.
You know how the first day in an RV, you bang your head on everything because you’re not used to the spacing?
Well, we wound up driving through the downtown of infamous Eagle River In the Upper Peninsula (UP) with the awning frame five feet back and three feet out from the side our new-to-us 24 ft Keystone Cougar fifth wheel with the locals honking because obviously we were not the wiser.
Earlier that day at the gas station we overheard two parallel pumping RVers commiserating over their respective “money pits.”
How much is truly our own faults in these matters?!
Lucky for us, the locals are amazing.
If you ever need repair after an RVing mishaps and you are in the UP, we highly recommend Eagle Country RV Service Center.
