Great buy and looks really nice. I'm curious - are those gold things lights on the left and right sides of the front bed? If so, how do you get the front shell down or are they detachable somehow?

They are lights, but silver ones that I replaced the old ones with. The lights are directly beneath the overhead cabinets, so the shell stops just short of that space, when completely closed.

Ah, those are the "elegant lights". You can Search the board on that term if you are curious. TM used them for a long time, and they really looked nice in the photo shoots, but they were troublesome on a day-to-day basis. The vibration of travelling would unscrew the bulbs just enough that they wouldn't turn on. It wasn't a big deal, just screw the bulbs back in. But eventually the socket's center contact would also get deformed and wouldn't make contact. And the shades were forever crooked.

As you can imagine, lots of complaints. Sometime between 2002 and 2006, TM finally gave up on them, and switched to something a bit more robust - if not quite so elegant.

In the overall scheme of things, amazing how much has not changed.
Good luck with your polishing the old gem.

Default This beauty is still going strong!

This was our first Trailmanor and the remodel of it. We loved that thing! We just couldn't figure out how to log in under our old user name so had to create this one! Last year we gave this one to our son thinking we wanted to upgrade to a full size camper. After pulling the new camper to South Dakota this spring, we returned home and immediately began looking for another Trailmanor! LOL

We ended up with a 2010, 2619 model over the weekend, since it's really just us now. I guess it's true. Once you own a trailmanor, you're hooked.

Final product pictures, before we passed this one on to one of our sons. By the way, I feel like it should get an extra thumbs up on strength and stability, because it survived Hurricane Michael, while OPEN. If a branch had not put a 2 inch hole in the roof, I would say it was virtually unscathed. Anything that came off, went right back on!
