We are in Central High, Oklahoma now and just bought this 2008 Dutchman T@B last week 3/14/24.  Will be pulling it home to Washington in 2 weeks.. My wife Cris is from Lawton, OK so we live here for Fall & winters and our primary residence is in South Puget Sound, WA for Spring & Summers.  It's late, got to turn in.  Glad to know there is a place to turn to with like minded travelers.

P.S. My wife got locked in yesterday.  Is there a way to adjust the door handles?  Apparently the inside handle moves the latch back a full 1/4 inch less than the outdoor handle.  Our first problem, I'm sure there will be more on a 16 year old trailer.

    Welcome and have fun!  Not sure about the lock, so, hopefully someone will chime in.

    Sharon, Thanks for the welcome and tips.  I'm obviously doing something wrong again - my signature is double spaced.  How do I make it normal like everyone else.
    Cheers, Miles

    @MilesCamp - good question.  I have lost the ability to tweak signature lines with a past update.  @ScottG - any ideas?

    Hold down the shift key when hitting enter when going to the next line of text might work.

    I notice the same thing, and thus far can't find any way to restore moderator access to this feature. 
    @MilesCamp, did you by chance set up your signature line using the Firefox browser? Vanilla has a long-standing quirk with Firefox where it inserts an extra blank line every time you hit the return key. Sometimes you can fix this by toggling the HTML code and removing the extra command. However, it's generally easier to just open the site in a different browser and make the necessary edits.

    @AnOldUR, what exactly does this do? Are you using Firefox?

    I use Firefox. I just tried this on this comment and it seems to work! Sort of. The space still looks a little bigger, but much closer to a single space than a double space.

    This YouTube video may help with the door lock.

    Slackers, my door mechanism is completely different from yours but worth opening for a look see and PM.  The door itself is half the thickness of yours.  Big difference between early T@B's and yours -(2008 & 2015's).
    ScotG & AnOldUR I do usee Firefox and have only been using the enter key for new lines.  Will try using "Shift/Enter" next.
