We too.
Another way to total a trailer..........
Found all the caulking on the roof of my late 80's Alpenlite is curling up like bacon. Found some water intrusion around the back skylite/vent. Peeling it all off and replacing with Lexel. Makes silly-cone look like plumbers putty.

Lexel is about the stickiest stuff I've had to deal with. It goes on pretty wet, will self level, tools well, and dries to a very flexible, yet paintable finish.
It will even work in the rain if needed.
The stuff I'm peeling off looks like it went on in a uniform bubble gum band about and inch wide. Edges are curling up, trapping water which further opens the seal, eventually making a water trap/funnel that gets things wet inside in a hurry.
Ah, the joys of RV ownership......

Yeah! Already had 4 trips planned that we've had to change or cancel now.
On the bright side, after paying off the camper I got a couple grand in my pocket! So that was nice!
