    Winterization

    Does anyone know what type of water heater is on the 2015 northtrail 32 Rlts? I’m reading instructions on winterizing and trying to figure out if there is still water in tank and then how to remove. I’d like to stop paying for propane to heat it and get it done! Thank you so much.

    First time pulling 32 ft trailer w SRW

    Ok, thank you for that! I was wondering how much of a turn I can make. I forgot he had a fifth wheel. I will be testing it out this week for sure. The delay is living on a two lane country road that has fast traffic and the fear I'll be blocking the road not backing in correctly (trees add...

    First time pulling 32 ft trailer w SRW

    That was great reading. Especially the info about railroad tracks, etc, more specifically the turn visual and detailed directions. So I guess it's legal to cross middle lane in a turn when pulling a large trailer. The 90 degree turn Pondscum mentioned will be a hurdle way down the road...
