Re: Tire Jack included?

No tools, no jack, just a spare tire. I've had two pup ups before and it was the same deal.

Re: First (rainy) weekend in the Visa 23

Before the Visa we had a tent-trailer (PUP). 2 years ago, it rained for 2 straight days while on vacation with strong winds: we didn't sleep at all. Last summer we had a similar situation in the...

Re: TV mounting in 23BHD Visa

I did mount my TV on the wall (where the sticker is) and it doesn't feel very solid and my TV is only a 19'' flatscreen. I have the ERD and in my trailer the TV is either on the wall in the bedroom...

Re: Another Visa owner reporting inside tire wear

These new pictures are different than the other one posted earlier: they show abnormal wear on the inside of the treads. That situation shows either negative camber or toe out on the wheel, either...

Re: Another Visa owner reporting inside tire wear

I had one tire showing the same kind of wear, during my big trip vacation (2000 miles)but it was because it had only 15 psi in it instead of recommended 50-60 psi. The other side stayed at the right...

Re: 19RSD Dinette/Bed Question

The upper part of the table fits on the rails where you sit, becoming the bed. You use the back cushions to put on the table. I'm guessing it's very uncomfortable...

Re: True Dry Weight of a Visa 19 RSD, ERD or RGU

The factory dry weight is confusing to say the least. It's the weight of the trailer without options (a/c, awning and microwave are options)all tanks are empty, including the propane and no battery....

Re: 2006 GS Innsbruck Supreme questions

The water heater in my Visa works only on propane, no 110v. I'm not familiar with slides but they usually have a way to be opened or closed manually.

Re: Visa Tires - Radial and Bias together

My tires are Trail America and you're right: they're cheap! One of them was underinflated and within 200 miles all the tread on the outside edges was gone. I take the blame on this one because I...

Re: Visa Tires - Radial and Bias together

My Visa came with bias ply. Both tire should be the same (either radial or bias ply) because they behave differently. I prefer radial tires, they handle better and they run cooler than bias ply. I...

Re: Towing a Visa 19 RGU

When I bought my 2012 Visa ERD I had a Acura MDX (2001) with a towing capacity of 3500 pounds. The trailer, ready to go, is pretty much at that maybe a little more. On the road, I could pull it but I...

Re: VISA 19ERD Bent Axle

Did any of you guys with tire problems try radial tires? While it think the alignement of the axle could be the problem (not sitting straight), bias ply tires do wear faster than radials and the...

Re: VISA 19ERD Bent Axle

I'm wondering how they ship the trailers from the factory: if they put them on flatbed trailers, it's possible that the axles are getting bent in the shipping process. I had a tire (door side) that...

Re: Visa 23RBK Reverse Lights?

There are no back-up light on travel trailers, unless someone install some. The tow vehicule is not wired for them either.

Re: Gulf Stream Visa

Very easy to know if you need WDH: if you hook it up to your vehicule and if the rear end is sagging more than 1 inch, you should use WHD. On my MDX, it sags about 3 inches without the bars. As for...

Re: Spray Port on 2008 Kingsport 182 lite

Re: Spray Port on 2008 Kingsport 182 lite

Mine is just like Kristin's. I was told it's there to clean your sewer hose or rather rinse it before you put it away.

Re: Owners of Visa 19ERD

I don't think the rear bumber is sturdy enough to install a hitch on it. You would need to either replace or re enforce the bumper and I don't know if the frame of the trailer can take that. Another...

Re: 23RBK Air Con

Re: Size of awning on "19" visa?

It's almost 11 feet long.I was looking to get a screen room for the awning but it's not a standard size from I can tell, the ones I find are either too small or way too big.
