Does any one know how to decode the NU Camp VIN#?   So that you can determine when it was made.  My Certificate of Origin says may.  I remember seeing on one video showing the line at the plant that NU Camp was installing a new silver foil type vapor barrier to combat condensation.  Any one know when that started, and how can you find out if yours got it?  Thanks,  Fred, Donna and Jaxson.

    I don't know the answer to decoding the VIN number and really can't say that it would help.  I did however tour the T@B line recently with factory owner Joe Mullet and he mentioned that the new aluminum foil style insulation would eliminate the condensation issue inside the trailers and had recently been incorporated into the build of their units.  

    I sent an inquiry to the factory today and will post up any information I receive back on your question.

    I had a breakdown of the VIN from Ed, but I sure can't find it.  It might be on the other forum.

    Would be nice if you can find and post.  Sometimes it can give you some good info.  Our Certificate of Origin says May, but sometimes the VIN # can give you some clue as to actual date.  Like a production date on an auto..   We got our insurance started and Progressive does not list the 400 yet.  Our policy shows it as a T@B CS.  We called and were told that as long as they have the Vin, everything is good to go.

    @Verna, Your post with the VIN# was here because I remember seeing it, but I can't find it either. Seems to me it was around the fridge recall time when you were discussing where the VIN# was located, with a breakdown of the VIN# itself.
