I think that goes for most models. They sure did the trick on my Transit chassis.

So they're kind of like Cauliflower: they can go with anything!
Congratulations on the wise choice...

Does anyone own a 24TF or 23TW with the full slide (bed and dinette)? My question is, once the slide is fully inside how difficult is it to access the cab? The floorplan drawing appears that it would be a bit of contorting to slide into the cab from inside the motorhome. Does anyone have a picture of the slide closed that shows how accessible it is to move from cab to back of motorhome. Do you have to open the slide to use the kitchen if you want to stop for lunch?

Great question, I think you would have as much room as a Gemini without a side slide which is completely doable. The bed of course folds up. Check it out at a dealer. They will be happy to slide it in and out for you.

Weathertech has several sizes for the Ford Transits cabs.
Which size did you get?

[Coveman2]

I got the ones that fit a transit 110 inches high

Top of Gemini, Drivers Side - What the $%^^ is it.

And is it broken.

I have been getting small water dripping down the front sunroof, thinking it was condensation and caused mild mold on the front ledge.

Is this the culprit. A broken ???

i also have seen water stains on inside of camper next to front roof window w retractable shade. i posted a question about it a while back. replies said either window or roof is leaking. or condisation. I climbed on top, and put waterproof tape on seal. then silicone around window. that was in spring. 2 weekend trips later, both in rain i look for changes.. i keep camper under pavilion when not in use.I dont know if I'm paranoid but stain on inside seems bigger. only way to find out is to remove headliner, but where do u get a new one. and how would a person even know how to make one. I'm leaving on a big trip in july, so I'm hesitant to take anything apart. All replies welcome.

Clarkwood,
I see you have same crappy job of dealing with the “leveling” sealant. Mine looks even worse in some places and believe it or not it looks like somewhere they tried sealing it more than once. Did it leak when Thor tested it for leakage and then they just added more? Bought 2018 Gemini in May 2018 new! After I found this when inspecting roof I showed dealer service manager and just got the classic shoulder shrug. Unbelievable!

Have 2018 Gemini. Mercedes Sprinter 3500 chassis. Has anyone had any issues with the blown molded storage bins either failing or moving out of position due to weight put in them. I did not see anything regarding what allowance loads might be. On several it is hard to see how they are supported and I have at least one that is not even on the bottom and appears to have been installed that way. Have tried to load them equally to extent possible but I worry about the loads in them bouncing to an extent driving down the road. I thought I saw a post about someone adding additional supports but did not find it in search.

I too have a Thor Siesta which is built on a MB Sprinter chassis. I have had it since March 2018. Just returned from a 5 week southern states round trip. I have it loaded and have not had any issues with the exterior storage bins. Was on some rough roads during the 6700 miles we put on it this last time. The only issue I had was the front passenger rim cracked when we got home. I had to buy another rim. Lucky it waited until we parked in our driveway before it went flat. I had a spare and put it on until I could get another rim. It wasn't covered under warranty since I did not purchase tire/rim coverage from the MB dealer. I didn't know they had such coverage since I bought the mh at a mh dealership.

That is the Sirius/XM Antennae

Does this run the regular antennae too ?

I have been getting crappy reception on even local FM and AM stations.

Do you think this the culprit.

Going to look at Amazon to see if there is a new antenna I can replace.

Thank Clarkwood

Thanks
