Hi-Lo History

[SeaGypsy]

Hi all!
I am making my 1987 Hi Lo pretty, and hoping my next camping trip will run smoothly, without any glitches, like last time.

I was also asked to have my trailer in a vintage trailer show! I am in love with all the vintage canned ham trailers, but my first love is to my Hi Lo.

For the show, I would like to have a little poster with info on the Hi-Lo's history--dates it was first made and when they stopped being manufactured. Any and all comments or directions to a website would be greatly appreciated.

Hope you all are excited and getting ready for summer!!

Cheers, Laurie

This is about the history of HiLo:http://www.hilotrailerforum.com/f52/50-years-hilo-1663/

A few 2011 models were made and that was in 2010. Somewhere on the Forum there was discussion about HiLo shutting down, maybe if you do a search you may find when that was.

Your water heater may have a bypass valve on it that is used for winterization. Check to see if there is a valve or valves at the water connections on the tank that need to be turned.
