Hi Larry, welcome to FiberglassRV, we're glad you're here
Ditto on the request for pictures
Is your new-to-you rollin' home the Dance Hall Edition Burro (sans bathroom), or fully self contained? Just curious

That's BATED breath meaning not breathing right now but hopefully will be breathing later. For years I labored with the misspelling and just could not figure what bait (as in dead minnows, etc) had to do with breathing. Attach bait (worms?) to your breath? WHEW! That stinks. Anyway, abate your breath long enough and at worst you'll be dead, at best you'll pass out and automatically start breathing again. Boy, glad that's cleared up. Tired me right out. Gonna go take a nap.

Hi Larry-
Small world. I am the previous owner of your Burro. Traded it in for a little larger trailer at Tom's Camperland. Loved the Burro, but wanted a little more space. I'm the one who put the new floor in-photos should still be in the archives here. I took "Guapa"(handsome woman in Spanish) to Cabo San Lucas last January on a 3 week caravan. If you want more information on her history, email me at gtselkie@yahoo.com

Most of the manufacturer manuals are pretty lame. Manufacturers of appliances do a better job. You'll find all kinds of manuals in the Document Center, including a Burro manual or two. Look under the Trailer Brand Manufacturer links at the bottom: Fiberglass RV - Document Center

Burro 17
Hi Larry-
When I traded the Burro in, I included the owner's manual. No more than a dinky pamphlet, but has some information. If you didn't find it, ask Tom's Camperland, as I gave them all the old papers I had for it.

There are RV maintenance books available. I learned a lot from friends and RV repairmen. By the way, KISS RV knows the Burro. They are very good, honest, and reasonably priced. Located at 75th Av. and Hatcher.

Gail, what should your "trailer owned" now say in your statistics?

I went to the dark side for a Keystone Springdale 179RD. It's not fiberglass, but only 21 feet long. Love it!
