Any of you get water pooling on your roof? I park mine on ramps to lift the front up to stop this happening when I am not using it.

We get a little on near the front on one side if we are off the level. It is only because our van has a curved plastic moulding along the sides at the top where most would have an awning rail.

Never had it anywhere else but it is always a good laugh if you forget about it and roll the van forward a few feet with the door open.

I get quite a bit under the curve of the overhead cab. First one out in the morning could get quite a soaking.

Suppose I could always send the wife out first :)

Yeah suppose it is, it seems to sit lower at the front when parked. It's fine with the ramps under it.

just a little hollow in there.

Is it a walk on roof?

If not, maybe the material just has dipped a bit in the middle

Not sure, don't want to risk walking on it. Seems a lot of them do it going by what I read on the net.

Our handbook states that ours has a walk on roof.

It advises soft sole shoes and to make sure there are no small stones stuck in them.

Need to find out from a dealer before you try or you might have more to worry about than some water.

Lunar Motorhomes don't exist anymore, but they were Homecar's anyhow, might email them and ask if they know and if they have a handbook as I never got one :(
