Everything about travel trailers. I am convinced no company that puts them together, or makes parts for them ever hired a good mechanic or engineer. I mean really...... should you have to do things like find where all the screws lying on the floor came from every time you walk inside it? Through bolt the cabinet and storage door hinges with a nylock nut on the back side is too much hassle? or did you think that tiny wood screw was going to hold in your laminated 3/8" particle board? How about the screen door that you can open with the door latch when going inside but when you exit you have to slide the little access door open to use the same latch? No one makes weather strips for doors and windows with material that doesn't shrink 15% in 3 years leaving gaps? The list goes on, feel free to add to it

Hearing my wife say "one of those would be fun!" I did some deep-dive research on travel trailers. I'm now prone to think there may be no worse way to spend your money if you're expecting a quality product.

Little things that bother the chit out of me?

First one that comes to mind - My damn 2022 RAM Laramie. I have the door open to watch the ground as I move in reverse (i.e. hitch up the boat) to define slight movement length and the damn truck HALTS ANY #$%#ing movement... Why? Because I have the door open.
Heh! That's a "little thing that bothers" me.

I assembled this HF fan in 2013 with the carry handle at 90 degrees. Just now taking the 10 mins to correct it. I even dropped some thread locker on the bolts so the don’t vibrate and fall off.
