I found for the galley lock to raise the rear hatch and then spray silicone spray into the lock. Keep the hatch door up and spray every day for a few days. This lets the spray run down into the lock. If the doors are bad take the handle and lock off the door. Find a way to keep it vertical and...

Doug and Amber, We are planning a camping trip in the Hill Country of Texas late March to mid-April.. We are looking for a campground that has showers. We enjoy road bicycling so we are also looking for a campground that has access to the roads less traveled. Any suggestions would be...

We met three CI owners in Alaska this summer!!

Steve and Alea As I read your post I understand that you are not getting any power to your charge pin, on your 7 pin connector on the tow vehicle. I had the same problem last year. On my car there is a charge wire running from the battery to the rear of the car. There is a wire coming off of...

We ended up staying at Cave in Rock State Park. It was a lovely park with some hiking and road bicycling (across the state line into Kentucky via the free ferry) opportunities. We drove to nearby Garden of the Gods for a short hike to a beautiful vista.

Theresa, We do not pull the covers off of each other (& I Steve am the cover hog at home). We also have a twin comforter on top of the blanket. We have camped on some chilly nights (upper 20's low 30's) too.

We also use a twin sized Pendleton wool blanket which I think is the perfect size - just enough overhang to tuck in at the sides.

Doug & Amber, We live in northern Michigan and like to camp in the shoulder seasons. Nothing like the camping in the fall in northern Michigan (although it is snowing tonight). We had concerns with the water system too, when it dipped below freezing. This was one of the questions that we had...

We too have a 2015 Outback with the factory 1 1/4 inch hitch. We have towed almost 6,000 miles without a problem. Our Outback has the 2.5 engine. Subaru recommends electric brakes when towing over 1,000 pounds. I would agree with that recommendation.

I am 6'1" and fit comfortably in our 550. I think though I am at the upper limit. I've been recommending that my 6'3" brother-in-law check out a 560.

Hi Steve & Alea, Thanks for the information. We will check out those campgrounds out. This trip will eventually take us to Lexington, KY where we will bicycle "The Horsey Hundred" over Memorial Day weekend. Safe travels to you as you prepare to begin your 2016 route north.

In May, we will be passing through southern Illinois (on our way to Kentucky) and we are wondering if anyone has a campground suggestion for an overnight stay with some hiking options? Thanks for your help!

Wade and Nan, Sounds like the pump may not be getting power, possibly there is a loose or broken wire? Is everything else on the trailer getting (12V) power? If no there is a battery switch in the galley that should be on. Hope you find the problem easily.

Chuck and Martha, We hope you are enjoying your new Camp Inn. We too tow with a 2015 Outback 2.5 engine. we typically get the same mileage you did, however we almost always have kayaks or bikes on the roof of the Outback, which adds to the air drag. The one time I towed without anything on...

What a great trip! We are looking forward to taking "Long Hauls" when we retire in a few years. Thanks for sharing, Pete.

We have both the Dometic and the 50 quart Yeti. Our tow vehicle does not have a hot 12 volt plug and if it did I would be concerned with a low battery, so we made the decision to keep the Dometic in the trailer. This allowed us to get the 50 quart Yeti, which stays in the tow vehicle, is a...

Hi Joci and Jim, We enjoyed St. Joseph Peninsula State Park in Port St. Joeseph, which is in the panhandle about 50 miles east of Panama City. If you like miles of undeveloped beach and beautiful sunsets, I would suggest a few days here. We hope you enjoy your new trailer.

We pulled our new 550 home with a 2015 Outback with the 4 cylinder. It did fine. Revved into the 3000-3500 RPM range on some hills. With 2 bikes on top I got 22 MPG.

Jim & Jamie, Thanks for steering us to a particular brand! Rick & Sarah, We are picking ours up on the 18th. Yours must be the 560 that has been near ours in the build pictures. We are looking forward to our May vacation and you must be, too! Steve & Betsy
