Any suggestions for a dirt skirt for a BT Cruiser?

Great question! We have a 2008 5272 and have tried to find adequate splash guards for the tires with no luck so far. We have had both the dirt "skirt" and rock guard on our previous class A's but weren't particularly happy with either.

We just returned from a 2 1/2 week trip and found our bedroom slide leaks badly! The gutter splice was not sealed properly, leaked down on the roof of the slide and the gasket is too short and does not touch the roof of the slide letting water seep in on one side of the bed. The carpet was completely soaked. Thankfully we had 5 days of 80+ weather and kept a fan on it to dry it out. Just one more poor quality issue to let a dealer fix rather than taking the time to do it properly at the factory. It is certainly NOT the first issue. At the very least the factory should be able to do a one piece gutter on a 27 foot motorhome!

We are onto the second page now of our single spaced list of corrections/changes we have made since getting this unit in August. It fits us very well now, but certainly has not been a smooth or easy transition.
