    Guess I have been off the forums a while....the Edge is discontinued?

    Wow, I guess this has been discussed a lot, but I can't believe there aren't enough people with 5000lb capacity SUV's wanting a decent trailer for a family with kids. The Edge M22 at 3700lbs dry weight seems to have been replaced by the Wilderness WD2250BH at 4700lbs dry. That is no longer a...

    Childproofing

    Just thought I would update this. All I did was take out the radio and moved the slide switch to be accessible on the inside top of the cupboard by the door (which I have a child lock on). 4 screws to pull out the radio, 2 screws to take out the slide switch and disconnct the telephone cable...

    Bunk bed wooden ladder

    this link is in my bookmarks - http://www.surcoinc.com/RV-BL.html - I haven't bought one as I still have a 1 and almost 3 year old which I would't want climbing up there, and my 4 year old can get up there by herself, but not down yet...

    Forum Software Upgrade -- New Editor, NOW with AutoSave!!

    I'm having a problem posting to the "Ask the factory" subforum of the Edge brand community. Not sure if it is related to this change or not, but I can fill out my name, email address, VIN, phone number, subject line, but then I click on the box to type my message in, and I don't get a cursor -...

    Edge owners - Please check your brake wires!!!

    I just got my trailer back from the shop....had them adjust the brakes in preparation for a long upcoming long trip. To my shock, they showed me that the two brake wires that go from the front set of wheels to the rear set of wheels along the driver side (zip tied to a pipe on the frame in...

    Interior LED lighting?

    Re: LED lighting Just an update....I got "18 5050 SMD Warm White BA15S" bulbs for my trailer, and I'm really happy with them. They are maybe slightly whiter light than incandescant, but just as bright as an 1141 bulb. I don't have a way to test how much power exactly they draw, but I noticed...

    Fried battery

    Not sure if everyone gets the same battery and box - I seem to remember the dealer installed that before I picked up my trailer (was a special order). But I have noticed on mine that the vents in the top of the box let water in...it filled up with water the first winter/spring I had it. I...

    Mounting Tv in an M 22

    I don't have a TV in the trailer, but if I was going to mount one in mine, I'd get a desk mount monitor arm that can be installed through a hole in the counter beside the door - somehting like this - http://www.ergotron.com/Products/tabid/65/PRDID/9/language/en-GB/Default.aspx It just shows a...

    Interior LED lighting?

    Re: LED lighting I just ordered what looks to be the same thing from China direct from a manufacturer. Got enough bulbs for my trailer, but I was thinking of importing more. Glad you like them, I don't know anyone that has them.

    M22 Shower Connection Access

    If you still want to check yourself, I think I pushed the board down (it bends) rather than prying it up - but it did break a little, so you may want to let the service people do that. There isn't anything supporting it in the middle underneath, not a very heavy duty shelf. I just left it off...

    Ask the factory moderation

    Just wondering what the reason is for the moderation in the Ask The Factory sections of the forums. Is it necessary? Especially for follow up posts after a topic has been started, but even for posting a new topic... Are the moderators really deleting/editing/moving many new topics or responses?

    M22 Sky Light Blackout

    I bought a roll of velcro tape and a heavy guage roller blackout blind from Home Depot and made covers for the door window and roof vents. To get them the right size without measuring I taped some paper over the vents and window, used the side of a crayon to mark the edges and used those as...

    M22 Shower Connection Access

    It's a very thin piece of laminate in my M22 at the bottom of the cabinet shelf. I took it off last winter to see what was under there. Just a few nails if I remember right. Seeing as the water pump under the end of the bed on mine was also under a nailed down piece of laminate (why...
