MacKerricher State Park in Ft. Bragg on Hwy 1. Great place, busy on weekends, get your rezzies now. Campsites in the 80s-90s on the beach side are the best. And only 6 mi. from Mendocino.

I picked up a pack of baby bumpers at Babies R Us after a couple of similar head whacks. Easy install, visually unobtrusive.

I did a trip in 2013 which ended at the factory and had the front box retrofitted. Took a day and cost $850 then. I've been so happy ever since that I did it.

I've been in contact with Airxcel. The cover, like the rest of the unit, only has a 2 year warranty. I'm sticking with my plan A, gel superglue and paint.
