Re: Visa 19 ERD Bed Prop

I use a woody!
Yes a broom handle that fits into a block, that is attached to bottom of bed.
A good woody keeps it up higher than flimsy rod. :D

Re: Gulfstream ultra light camper -2008

Most trailers come with a 6 gallon water heater. Depends on the volume of water turned on, and is usually good for a couple showers in a row, if using the shut-off valve at lathering time.

Tire Jack included?

Did anyone get a tire jack and wrench with their Visa 19'?
Where was it located, as I never saw one on mine unless it was removed before purchase.

Re: Visa 23BHD has holding tank labels reversed!

Really?
Our 19RGU has black on right and grey on left labelled, and drains out as such.
Maybe there is different plumbing setups that require different labelling on the outside.

Re: Gulf Stream Visa

I took a deep socket that fits over the threaded rod, and then used a grinder to make 2 slits opposite to each other.
Now it slides in and grips for drill use.
