I think our entire RV got washed last weekend. Seven inches of rain in one day probably did the job for me. Good thing too- I was in Hawaii!

So, I can then assume that my 2007 Keystone Copper Canyon built in 2006 has the EPDM roof and don't have to worry about it as much?
I agree Hawaii is still nice, I spent a month there last Sept. and could have taken my rig with me. I flew over on a military C-5A. Could have driven the whole thing up in the belly of it. Then, flew back in a C-117. Same thing, I could have brought it all back then. Can't figure why the Government won't let us do that....LOL.

Military - you know better than to assume. I assumed I wouldn't go to Nam, spent two tours there. I'm sure you also know the meaning of "to assume" lol. Seriously, I as well as others have not figured out how they decide to EPDM or TPO. If you want to, or need to know, you better check. I pulled a vent dressing on the inside to see what color mine was, it was black, EPDM.

As mentioned, mine was made in 2006, so it may well be the old EPDM, will have to check that out.
Yeah, I was stationed in Hawaii in 65, then sent to Viet Nam where I lasted about three months before I was blown up, burned 80% of my body second, third and some fourth degree burns. Lost 120 lbs. in a week and spent a year and a half on a death bed, but I made. No matter how bad I was, their were others that were worse off! Now hitting 70 and with a loss of use of a limb, I make do. Memories are fading.......
To all those Viet Nam vets that made it back, "Welcome Home".

What is a TPO material roof?
How do you tell the difference between a EPDM roof and a TPO roof?

There are LOTS of posts on this subject. But, if you remove the inside garnish around one of your vents (four screws), you will find that where the factory cut out the hole, they folded the rubber inward. If the rubber is black on the bottom (just lift it up and see) it is EPDM.

Last Sept. the family and I went back over to Hawai'i and stayed a month. I could have taken my RV and truck there and back if Uncle Sam would have let me. Flew over on a C-5A and flew back on a C-117. Plenty of room on both of them to get my rig on, darn it....oh well.
