Unload her?

[nanaof4boys]

When you take your RV in for maintenance...do you unload her? Ask because we made our first trip a couple weeks ago and had a leak, so we had to take the RV to the dealer to find the leak...so we unload EVERYTHING we had put in it. We made so many trips to WalMart during that trip to get things we needed that we probably own a chunk of WalMart by now and we weren't about to risk anything being "lifted" while it was in for repairs. We even removed the TV and kept it here (the dealer said they have to do that on their lot because they have people breaking in and stealing them). Also unloaded the remotes to the TV and radio for safekeeping (ours was missing when we bought the RV and they ordered one for us).

So, what does everyone do? Unload? Leave it loaded?????

Thanks!

Except for cash, credit cards
and the ocasional gun or two
(just kidding........)

I would leave it loaded up!

We have never had to leave ours for repairs though........

LOL, i guess being camping "virgins" we were afraid to leave it loaded. Other friends of ours say they leave theirs loaded too. I guess when we get to know our dealer better we will do the same....and I hope we don't have to take her in very often!

Also meant to say....our friends who were camping with us and who I think have the same rig you do had a leak too. Theirs is in the shop too. Theirs was a tiny leak..just a few drops around their antenna....so you might want to keep an eye on that site on your RV.

When mine was in, I left it loaded, thinking I would just lock it up and it will be all good. I have Plasma's and other valuable riding stuff in the garage, like I said, I will just lock it up.
When I got to the dealer I told them I had that I had certain things in there and asked if I should unload it or being locked up would be ok? I said if they needed to get into it, just call me. He said "no worries, we have a master key to all trailers" I just about #$^* all over my self! I did not have time to unload the trailer and thought maybe they have insurance for this type of stuff? But luckily everything was still there, but next time...... probably..... well, I hope there is not a next time!

OMG, I think I would have had to unload it anyway. I'd have a stroke if someone stole my stuff as much money as I have spent already and have only had the camper 2 months!
