    Is there a YouTube on installing slide out seals North Trail Trailer Caliber?

    Very easy to change, just a couple of pinch points at the top and bottom of the seal slide. Loosen those and the seal will slide right back in. You may want some kind of lube (silicone spray) to help ease sliding the replacement seal in then just crimp the seal slide closed again and you are done.

    Fuel mileage M210rb?

    Not your setup but . . . I pull a 2020 NT 21RBSS (very similar to your 210RB) with an '08 F150 V8 and now with a 19 F150 3.5 EcoBoost. I tow @ 65mph and got/get between 9 and 12mpg. I expect your mileage will be in the same range depending on your speeds and road conditions (mountains...

    How long did it take?

    Not much help but . . . when we ordered our 2020 21RBSS Caliber it took about 6 weeks to be delivered (ordered early Feb at an RV show and got it late March/early April (just before the pandemic shut down Michigan) Hang tough, the 21RBSS is a great unit I think you'll enjoy it!

    Just Purchased a 24RBS - Looking for general info

    Congratulations on the NTU camper! We bought a 2020 (NT 21RBSS) it came with appliance specific booklets and an extremely generic thumb drive. Which as you have seen, is useless. Ours was pre-wired for a rear camera, but did not come with one installed (dealer installed option but easy to DIY))

    Truck now sitting 99.9% of time.....suggestions while it is

    Pop the hood every so often and check for mice! Scatter mothballs around/under the vehicle (or put them in an open container) anything to keep the fuzzies away (even in the garage the ****things got under the hood of our almost-daily-driver and chewed up some wiring)

    Potential new owner!

    I feel your pain! Our dealer sold out to Camping World the year after we bought ours (Oh we don't carry that brand anymore). Now our nearest North Trail dealer is twice as far. We have had other maintenance type problems, the slideout wiper seals are pretty flimsy and had to be replaced (easy...

    Potential new owner!

    Congratulations on your new 21RBSS! We have a 2020 21RBSS Caliber and love the floor plan. It is a great couples unit. Yes we did have some issues on our first trip (wire harness for the slideout overhead lights was not secured properly and landed on a tire. Wore right through the cover and...

    21RBSS Manual Slide Retraction

    "I don't have a clue how I would get the trim off" You have to start from the center and remove the that first. then you can start on the sides. Use a flat bladed pry bar and CAREFULLY pry the trim pieces away from the frame. The trim is held on by long-ish pin nails. Just go slow...

    TV Backer

    Oh golly, the TV was already installed from the factory (Caliber edition)24" maybe? (We are thinking of removing the TV and mount permanently because we don't watch TV camping and we keep bumping into it when using the counter space/cooking, maybe later cuz it's still so new :-) )

    21RBSS Top Modifications?

    I also added a piece of foam insulation to the hoses behind vanity sink and the kitchen sink/water pump. It really cut down the noise when the pump was running. (the hoses were bouncing off the wall, created quite a racket)

    TV Backer

    I believe you'll find that cabinet face is very thick and solid. The cabinet to the left of the microwave (facing the microwave) is where my TV is mounted and the mount is VERY solid. (the TV its self weighs almost nothing) The mount is centered on the panel. I'll try to get a picture soon.

    21RBSS Top Modifications?

    I agree with replacing the sink and hose. Our shower hose connection cracked (1yr old unit!), and the sink/faucet is always wet. We have to keep a towel betweent the sink and faucet just to wipe up everytime we use the sink. (really cheap plastic)

    Welcome from another 21RBSS owner! You should be able to rustic camp for a good long while with that setup. Enjoy!

    Battery box 21rbss

    Viking23 I measured the battery space on my 2020 21RBSS and I don't believe a 4D will fit. Plenty of length and height, but the rails are only 8 inches apart (a NOCO HM426 Dual 6V GC2 Commercial-Grade Battery Box is 18.25 x 14.25 x 14 inches). Even a 12 volt 4D box is 24.7 x 9.6 x 14 inches...

    North Trail 21rbss

    Merry, we've had our 21 RBSS for almost a year (picked it up March 19 2020, just before everything went in to lockdown) and love the floor plan. Great room and wonderful storage (and just darn pretty inside). We had also looked seriously at the Grand Design floor plans and build quality. The...

    Back-up camera

    Hi Phanton_9192, Our 2020 21RBSS was pre-wired for a Furrion camera (rear view). Very simple install, remove the bracket cover, being careful not to lose the tiny screws, plug the camera in, replace the 4 screws and done. The factory wiring for the camera will only provide power when the...
