Hi all. Does it matter if your RPod is level for winter storage? I am level front to back, but just a scootch off left to right. It will probably settle a bit anyways. Will there be any issue with the fridge or anything from not storing it perfectly level for the winter?

I'm new at the camper world myself but I think the only thing the camper has to be level for it to run the fridge so I don't think it matters if it's a little out of level.

The only things uncomfortable with being out of level you when you're in it and the fridge when actually operating. Since neither is the case, no problem.

If you store it outside you want to keep it level as possible because your windows have weep holes and the water can leak backwards into the trailer. At least that's what your Manuel says.
