Also get a rivet tool if you don't already have one. If it's anything like mine, I had to replace all the rivet on the cabinet doors, molding...etc. I'd just bring it with you on trips along with a drill so you can fix it while on the road. Also take it easy down bumpy roads, this little guy will bounce all over the place making the inside of your trailer look like a bomb went off. If you pack anything heavy in the trailer, make sure to pack it as far forward as possible. Having the propane and batteries that far forward helps a ton so the trailer doesn't start swaying while at highway speeds. Have fun, we love ours, but we're selling it because my family of four is just too big for it now.

You also might want to consider a gravel shield for the front window. Mine came with it, but you might be able to buy one from Scamp. Going down rocky roads kicks up gravel and could bust your window.

What a gem Reddit is for amazingly applicable information from strangers on unique topics.

Ya I’m bummed mine didn’t come with it. Doesn’t even look like there’s brackets to hang it on. Thankfully the windows are brand new so I should get some good use out of them.

You could put them in yourself. Just learn to patch fiberglass, and hang the clips on rivets. The shield is really light, since it's made from fiberglass. Maybe 3-5 lbs.
