Nice pictures on this post, where did/are you traveling the Summer of 2023, anyway not many posts on the Mallard Community site, also not many 1987 Mallard Travel Trailer posts on this site yet, I will post a couple photos of my restoration/ slight fixer upper 1987 Mallard Travel Trailer, I like do it your self projects, reading posts of new Travel trailer maintenance issues seems like a nightmare, we bought my Mallard from an owner who bought it in 2007, myMallard is a survivor...Scott

Thanks for your reply. Weve only done a couple of trips this summer to State Parks in Wisconsin and Michigan. We are hoping to go to Rock Island State Park in Tennessee in November. I love older campers so I look forward to seeing pictures of your "87 Mallard. They certainly dont make them like they used to and I think if anyone buys a new rv they better be handy or expect a lot of time in the service department. I'm lucky my husband is able to do repairs and likes to do modifications. I like our model for the fact that it is compact for the 2 of us, and the narrower width makes it easier to tow. I keep wanting to do an extended trip out west with it sometime.
