Broken strap

I have a 2013 Keystone Laredo 303TG. I would always travel with the FW tank full. It provided a smoother wide and my truck was well within towing limits. We're never pulling on any rough roads. Always tar roads.

At least I did until one day I was under the camper checking something else. I had cut the plastic cardboard under belly to check something and happened to shine my flashlight towards the FW tank. One of the metal straps holding the tank was hanging down (bolt broke off) and and the other strap was loose. Had I not noticed it, I would have continued keeping it full. It was only a matter of time until it fell off going down the highway.

I repaired it and no longer keep it full. Usually have it empty until I get to where I'm going. I bought some water jugs and a small pump to fill it if we don't have water hookups.
