    Has anyone installed a Lippert 672136 Ground Control on a travel trailer?

    The 672136 is electric and looks quite ideal for a regular travel trailer. The pre-sales material makes it look easy enough. It certainly looks more practical than adding a hydraulic system, although I haven't ruled that out yet. Does anyone know from experience how well the installation works...

    Windshields in travel trailers/fifth wheels, worth it?

    I notice windshields are becoming more and more common. My question is; Those of you with windshields, are you glad your unit has one? Do they leak? Are bugs a problem? Personally I think they look pretty cool but the above possibilities concern me.
