[VAC] Re: floor dry rot?
Hey --jet,
You are right that there is a contradiction with the description of
this Airstream.
My floor didn't sag that much either except where there was *no*
flooring under the 1/4in. plywood that was used to "update" and
"strengthen" the floor. The dry rot in my trailer (and I presume in
most) occurred around the perimeter of the trailer, not the middle where
you do most of the walking.
Except for the doorway, I've yet to hear of a trailer floor wearing out
from foot traffic.
If you want a HUGE project and can get the trailer for <=$500...it
*might* be worth it.
Would love to see the pictures in question...could advise more from
there.
