Something strange happened on the way home from RallyX...
The trailer vent cover is gone.
Was Ryan driving???

Oh, no he wasn't; sucked off the top, probably not. I did not check, if some had opened it and did not close it I suppose the wind pressure certainly could have blow it off.

Does anyone have connections with RV or trailer company, before I start calling around.

At what speed would you reckon that would cause enough suction to rip the vent off? :lol: :oops:

they tend to dry out in the sun and shatter. you shouldn't beat yourself up over it Chris. new vent apparatus and pop-rivets mostly. exterior caulk of course.

I have bought RV parts from this site before with good success. Reasonably priced and a very large retail presence.
