Hello! Newly registered, but have been lurking in these forums for a few months. We picked up our 172T back in May, but are still figuring out how things work --- just in time to pack it away for the winter after three or four trips this summer. The factory paperwork is weak on specifics at best, and certainly lacking in anything useful regarding the tent end on these models. The dealer guy who did our walk-through was honest enough to admit he and only ever seen one other T model before, and I think I had it more figured out than he did. Any pointers, especially on keeping the tent end from encroaching on the dinette when folded up? We are looking to start back up in early March, and here in the Midwest that can still be pretty cold. I think leaving that end folded up would help a lot in colder weather. -- Joe Kyle --jjkd--

Welcome to the forum! There is at least one other "T" owner here that has recently posted a similar question. Try a site search, and see if you can hook up with them. ------------- Bob and Joyce Jennifer and Baxter, the Campin' Cocker Spaniels RP 177 "Key Pod" Chevrolet Silverado 1500 LT / Z71 |
