Slide out sticking/unlevel?

I take my 31RKLE to the dealer today to have the slide repaired. Since new (3 months) it's stuck at the top when starting to retract, and the table is unlevel along with the floor. Hopefully, it's just adjustment. Has anyone experienced these problems?

Fuel stops--any height problems?

I have yet to fill my diesel tank while towing my Cardinal 31RK. It's just short of 13' tall. Has anyone had a problem with low roof lines at gas stations?

31RK Television viewing

I thought having my tv so far up would be an issue too, but after DW and I are sitting in the two recliners, not having to look "down" at the tv is better! We like the tv up high. Couch viewing wouldn't be as nice, but we both would rather each have a recliner! Certainly try yours out and ...

50 amp cord

Mark/Kathy: Are you saying 303 protectant will make a cold cord pliable? I also bought the 50/30 adapter at camping world. I used the 30 amp cord last time--easier to coil. But, sure would be nice to just use the 50 amp cord if it would coil! Where do I get a milk crate? BTW, that adapter cost about...

updates--My slide out alignment (& coffee pot idea!)--31

Thanks for the input--In looking underneath it all looks straight--nothing bent I can see. And I can't see any place it's loose or bent. When the kitchen slide is all the way in, it is all the way in tight at the top (front of slide) then has a gentle outward tilt to be about 1" out at the bott...

Fifth Airborne pin box--a report

Although I never towed my new 31RK without the airborne, a friend who has a 31RK with the stock pin box, mentioned the "chucking" he had, got me interested in getting an airborne. I can feel no chucking or vertical movement, although I can see the pin box move as I drive! (Gosh, I should g...

Thanks for the input folks. I'll check it out. Now I notice the Oak Facia on the top inside of the unit slide is separating in the center where the two sections come together. And as I look across toward the front, the trim is not level. This is the same end that doesn't sit flush outside. Maybe par...

"Shake down" camping trip--! Please help with iss

Hi folks: :D Cardinal LE 31RK She's a beauty! And we love her! We took a 2-night trip to our KM Resort in Blaine, WA last weekend. We found a few problems, which I assumed we would, and I have a question or two. The long kitchen slide out does not come back flush with the front lower part of the sli...

Why should I be nervous for PDI

Hi Guys: I pick up my 31RK today--PDI. I will admit I've had some problems with the dealer--but seems patched up now and I'm ready. I guess we hear about people being cheated daily in the news so much that it makes me nervous that I might also :? But, I'll just try to be positive, keep my norwegian ...

New member--with questions on rvdirect, 30RK & 31RK

Hi guys! I'm VERY close (maybe Saturday--maybe RV direct) to buying the LE30RK or 31RK--not sure. Any input from current owners of those models would be helpful. And RV direct--I looked at a thread from last summer on it, and people were talking about how we post a bid to Rv direct. I thought they j...
