It’s really hard to see where it is from your pictures. But if it’s on the ceiling and near the AC unit, I would suspect a leak at the AC unit. These little hard bumps tend to be how the wall can...

Looks like it might be a water leak. Some people get this if there's a window nearby that may not be sealing properly. You may want to get on the roof and look for a gap in the sealant or a tear in...

We passed on the trailer. We went to a different dealer and ordered one from the factory. We’ll be going over it with a microscope before signing any paperwork.

Hey DQDick, what city was that dealer in? I had a similar thing happen about 4 months ago with a dealer here and the result was me backing out of a trailer. This dealer seems to be trying to...

Thanks
