Score-and-a-half right there!  That's about as clean as they come, nice find.

To fix that rubber trim strip on the counters and table:

Pull it completely off, or at least pull it off to the point at which it's still held in tight.  If you warm it with a hair blow drier, it will be more flexible.  Than use a product called "shoe goo" and glue it back in place.  If you pull on it a bit as you reinstall, you'll get it stretched back to the correct length and have no gaps like you have showing in that picture.  While the shoe goo cures, secure the trim in place with blue masking tape.  In a couple hours you'll be able to untape it.  While the shoe goo is still wet, trim off any excess.

Enjoy!

Ok, so I have purchased a new awning (thanks for the heads up, Wavery!), orderded a new Prodigy brake controller, new tires will be on this week. We have the thing pretty well cleaned out and are looking to get started using it. I have some wheel chocks, some wood to level it, full propane, a bunch of camping kitchen sorta gear we have from years of tent camping.... besides bed stuff, coffee and beer what do we need to stock this thing with? I have been reading various threads, and looked at checklists and am using those for reference, but want to see if there is anything else I need to get it setup and comfy at a campground. Power cables work well, don't expect to use the water tanks, anything else I should anticipate needing? (Rope, tools, etc...?)

 Thanks! Lots of info on this board.... almost too much!

I trap that my wife and I seem to fall into is that we spend so much energy thinking of all the "camping" stuff that we need to bring that we forget about "regular" things that we should bring. Saturday night one of my boys had a stuffy nose and asked me for nose spray. Didn't have any :banghead: Don't forget aspirin, Tums or anything else that you may need from time to time. Chapstick and sunscreen are two biggies to bring.
