Hi Pat, you have been a busy bee !
Looking at the carpeted wheel well photo storing rolls of paper.
I suppose that the Classic 19 hides the wheel well under the kitchen base cabinets with paneling just like in the Classic 21.
When I did work down there opening up that space for my battery project I saw a lot of space surrounding the wheel well that as you have done can accommodate light but bulky items. The standard storage down there is a narrow area for tall items. Looks like you carpeted the wheel well over the bubble wrap. Very creative use of available space.

You've inspired me, Pat. I'm staining our new 24" round table for the U lounge now while I'm watching the playoffs.

Hi Cathy .Yes I guess I do like fixing trailer to suit us .Storage was the most pressing issue . Want everything to have it's place even though we don't carry a lot ,coming from our camper . We downsized a long time ago from the motorhome . Couldn't believe all the stuff after 12 years . But I do enjoy making these mods . Can't sell now ,have too much invested . Pat

Pat,
Where did you get the usb/12v outlet? Looks similar to what Escape installs.

Very nice! Lots of good ideas. Thanks for sharing your pictures.
Question: why did you add the support pole? I have a "new-to-me" 2013 19' as well. Does this model have a history of structural issues if the pole is not added?
From other posts on this forum, I was under the impression that the straight sides on the new generation trailers needed the pole to support the upper cabinets. But with the curved walls of the older models the pole was not needed. Any insight on this topic is appreciated.
Thanks!
Arnie

Hi Arnie . Have no idea about the straight vs. curve sides for the reason of the pole . Kind of like the looks of the pole . Thought maybe a good idea for extra support . We also have a 2013 19 , we bought new Nov . 2013 . Never have had any structural issues with our trailer . Maybe the pole was added for the new awning on the new trailers . For the cabinet under the furnace , I am not the first to add that mod . Also with different idea's ,opening up under kitchen counter , others have also done that mod . Just our mods for our trailer . Pat

Hi Pat,
I'm glad to hear there have been no issues! The new awning style makes sense for why the pole may be on the newer models.
We don't have enough time with our trailer yet to know what mods we might want. Thanks for the quick reply!
Arnie
