On RV Slide-outs

Posted by Thomas Alan Gray May 26, 2009

Our friends Peter & Juliette shopped for quite a while for just the right fifth-wheel. "I didn't want one with slides," Peter mentioned.

Why not?

• "They're heavy, the extra weight can use a lot of gas."
• "I hear that they leak."
• "It's just something else to break down or go wrong."

So I did some research on the matter, and read some notes by RV technicians.

The result are in the article RV Slides – Pros & Cons.
