Miss Lori thank You so Much. Awesome VIdeo it`s cool to see you enjoying Life. Father God Bless you in your Adventures. A good Name (Wendy Moira Angela Darling) you remind me of Actress Magie Smith that Co-Stars in The Movie Hook with Robin William. Stay Joyful and in Great Health.
Impressive job
Thank you for the demonstration! I’m buying my 2006 TrailManor today! Yay! So excited!
Did you get the TrailManor??
I am so impressed! I had no idea there was so much work involved! How fun for you! Thanks for sharing!
Seemed like a lot of work but, in this video, I put it down then right back up, that was a job. Thanks for watching,, Lo :)
That trailer is so trick, I think you should call her "Trixie". As far as what I've taken rving as a single woman, I bought some solar motion detected lights that I put around my rig so if anyone comes near they will turn on to warn me. Of course, this doesn't help when you're sleeping, but still, from the sound of it, I don't think you sleep all that much. I stick them on with Velcro so I can pull them off when I'm traveling. I also have 65 pound German Shepard that will bark to scare off someone. I used to have a large metal crate for her for my old rig that I kept outside. One day I heard two people comment on how big the crate was. Made me realize that could be a deterrent.
Hey Lu, great idea on the lights, I'll get some of them ordered right away
@@LorisRVLife just because you don't have a dog doesn't mean you can it up a crate. I use the folding kind of metal crates and have an old one if you'd like it. It weighs over 25 pounds though.
@@lustraveller717 I was thinking about getting one of those plastic crates and using it for storage :) Lighter and I can just toss it in the truck bed while traveling :)
Thanks for inspiring us with this closing and opening video. How's your TM holding up?
Think of the tools you used when you were renovating. Eliminate the painting equipment. A set of sockets might be a good idea.
At least one spare tire for the trailer and a tire wrench. A large bottle of vodka. :)
Ohhh, I like the vodka idea,, do you make margaritas with vodka? Thanks rjr ^_^
Vodka is crisp and clean and may be mixed with anything!! Once, I only had prune juice and it worked!!!!
@@rjr-yp9uj You must be a mixologist 😁
Amateur. But i know the dangers of dehydration. :)
Thank you for showing us the open and close procedures....much easier than I would have thought ! I bet you have a name of your unit by now....but I'd sort of go with Lori's Manor ! BTW, you never can miss taking spare bunji's and a tarp or two...
Hey, thanks fir the name suggestion.
Hope you come back, Lo😃
Great video, thank you.
It's good to keep this for yourself or for someone else to reference. If they are doing it for you.i think you got a perfect rig there. 🦋🦋
I love this rig... I'm so excited to get my truck and get back to CA!!!
🦄☮️🦋 can't wait to see!
Like your outfit! Really cool set up thank you for sharing!
Looks great
Hey Chad, thank you :)
How much of a pain is this to open and close in the rain?
The person opening/closing ends up getting wet but, the inside of the TrailManor doesn't get wet. Unless you get wind driven rain but, it's minimal.
A name?
As you were asking I think something unique popped into my head…..
How about….
Miss Manners?
Or have you already named your TM?
Oh, I love that idea!!
Sadly, I traded the TrailManor fir a HiLo.
Everything on the HiLo is hydraulic. No more manual lifting, that was a real deal & back breaker. The HiLo is wonderful👍 I recently put up log cabin wallpaper and I just love it ❤️
She needs a name too 🤷♀️
@@LorisRVLife
How about….
Hi Lois?
@@robertdragoff6909 People would think my name is Lois.. LOL idk gonna take some time to come up with a great name like "Miss Manners" That was CUTE :)
Love your rig! Probably a dumb question, but what keeps someone from breaking into the rig by just sliding the slide in and hoping up inside? Just wondering if it's safe to leave unatended at a campground. Thanks for sharing!
Great question! 😄. There are big bolts on the bed slides, inside the trailer"
No way those babies are going anywhere. Thanks for watching, Lo 😊
those bolts are also the emergency escape pull pin and lift it rotates make sure pin is in before u get on bed or it will flip u out of camper my son in law almost found out the hard way 😂
did you purchase your t.m in such good conidtion, physical condition? we purchased a 2003 trailmanor as well and has a roof leak as well as the middle of the roof concaving in. just wondering if you had to replace anything such as the weather strips, or the rollers for when pull the camper out, or push in . (@5:19) sorry might sound confusing.
Hello scuba steve :) I got really lucky and bought my TM from a couple who live only 45 minutes from me. The were the original owners and when the TM was not in use, they garaged it. The only thing I've "had" to replace was the bag seal on one of the shells. While I was in South Dakota, I made a stop at the TrailManor Factory and had some other work done to it as well. Mostly things that made it easier for me. New AC, replaced and adjusted the lift arms and a few other misc things. They are GREAT there... I have a video about being at the TrailManor Factory too.
@@LorisRVLife awesome thank you for the response. Yeah we weren't so lucky. Totally got ripped off.. leaking roof. As well no a/c on our t.m
The bag seals that's what the lynx are called. I know those are easy to get from the factory. Yoyr videos are great thank you. I'll be watching more of them!!
@@scubasteve2908 I'm telling you, if you can get to the TM Factory in South Dakota, you'll be well taken care of. Oh, ask for jacob. Lemme know if you want his phone number 👍
@@LorisRVLife were located in florida though. So we wouldn't be there until the camper is already ready to go so we can travel. Thank you though that would have been great
@@LorisRVLife I was going to suggest the front shell torsion bars could use more tension at the front. For a completely mechanical system, it's amazing just how easy it is to open and close the shells. Scuba, probably one of the previous owners walked on the roof and collapsed it in. The center strip is unlikely to leak (unless some one damaged the roof). It's really important to keep the vents sealed on the roof. Water can leak through the vent seal and travel to the side wall. There is a thin piece of luan board on the kitchen side that can rot if water gets in. Otherwise, all the structural components are aluminum and pretty sturdy.
What year is yours and model? Looks just like ours. :)
2005 - 2720 :)
