RE: Locked Out!

The door may be jammed not locked. You may need to use something to pry the door "open" before you can unlock. This happen to me when one of my stabilizer jack sunk in the soft ground.

RE: Will it be difficult to find a reliable 5er on a 20K budget

Lots of older 5ers are still in great condition. Just a matter of finding one and carefully inspecting it.
I agree. Remember that water leaks are the death of 5ers. However, a lot of people purchased RV to camp the summer of 2020 due to the Covid so the 2020 market for RVs was very HOT in 2020. In a few years when non-RV travel is back to normal one may not be able to give away a used RV as the 2020 RVers get rid of no longer needed RVs

RE: How to sanitize new RV water system

My 5th wheel has a freshwater tank overflow/vent near the back of the 5th wheel is covered with a small white square piece of plastic about the size of one's hand. To remove pull up sharply and you have a gravity fill place.

Not a good year to visit Glacier NP

Reservations for individual campsites at Fish Creek and Many Glacier are made through Recreation.gov.
The St. Mary and Rising Sun Campgrounds will not be open in the summer of 2021, due to staffing limitations resulting from ongoing COVID-19 mitigations.
Other campgrounds within the park are operated on a first-come, first-served basis.

RE: Need Help Deciding which feature for trailer

I would never use an outdoor kitchen. When I cook outdoor I use a stand alone propane grill and/or a propane camp stove so I can locate them where I want.
With 4 people I want as much storage space in the TT as I can get and since you have tent camped you are use to cooking outdoors.

RE: No brakes on trailer

In my TT the brake wire was "cut" when the springs bottomed out after hitting a bump. Check the wire than comes out of a hole in the axels.

RE: Indian Tribal road closure of federal highways ????

Did they close the highways? Or just access to side roads into tribal lands?
July 2020 Press release
And the bottleneck won’t disappear anytime soon. Tribal leaders recently announced they would keep the eastern entrances and roads to Glacier, which lie on reservation land, closed at least through August.

Indian Tribal road closure of federal highways ????

Is there a "map" or website that shows where the Indian tribes have closed state and federal highways. I understand that the Blackfeet have closed all roads around East Glacier NP and the Sioux (?) have closed a number of roads in SD
I am trying to plan a trip this summer.

RE: Durango, Colorado or Shiprock, New Mexico.????

550 from Ouray to Durango is an incredible trip for scenery. But if you or anyone with you has a problem with heights, narrow highways, and steep drops off the side (and many do) I would not recommend it. It would be a very stressful and unpleasant trip.
I have driven the Moki Dugway highway in UT with no problem which is dirt. I think a US highway will be OK

Scenery is IMPORTANT.
Towing a 36 foot 5th wheel.
From Moab, Utah to Albuquerque, New Mexico would you recommend going by Durango, Colorado or Shiprock, New Mexico.

RE: Zion to Monument Vally to Albuquerque to Kansas to Nashville

Are you pulling a toad? Reason I ask there is maximum length going out east entrance of Zion. I believe it is 50 feet.
You could go east from St. George and use the east entrance on UT 9 to US 89. US 89 to US 160 near Tuba City, AZ.
You would need oversize permit to go out east entrance. Need to watch curves and narrow road in park.
In 2018 the tunnel was alternating one way for all traffic. We dry camped about 5 miles east of the entrance and drove the truck into Zion. We did see a number of RV use the tunnel without any special pass. You may want to check.
ALL parking is FULL in Zion by 9:00 AM
