Soft areas in floor 25 center bath rear BR

Before I say more, let me state that I have walked in new Airstreams noting that the floor gave a little in spots. My floorpan is center bath rear bedroom with sofa in front. Those of you with this floorpan, do you find the same? This might be what I am experiencing here but I do want to post this to ask:

My floor creaks mid-hall around the stove area closer to the rear side. I know that Del Guerney, forum member with a 2005 model of same plan, shared he had that same pop sound in the same place. I have been testing the floor (maintenance) and I do not note any softness except around two places- around the front of the fridge area by the bath wall and in the left side of the living room area just passed center of the couch toward the window area street side almost left cent I took a moisture meter and found no unusual moisture level so my thought is that it might be just normal joint gaps per se. (hopefully). I have never taken the belly pan off or torn up my vinyl and, I do not want to unless absolutely necessary.

I've got a few soft spots too, and a creek here and there.

LOL, do you mean YOU or your Airstream? I don't have a creek in mine but I do have a creak! I did see a house once with a creek in it and a bridge to the dining room!

LOL, this is what I get for drinking and typing!

I, myself, for sure have soft spots, as evidenced by the incredibly sadist therapy massage lady, who I now avoid at all costs cause I'm a wussy.

I, myself, also have creAks, this how I met the sadist therapy massage lady.

My airstream floor certainly has spots that seem to give more under your weight than others, I would refer to them as soft.

My airstream floor had a large creAk at the entry door, but might have just been from the way they parked it, cause I didn't notice it before they moved it to a spot for us to stay the night in.

What I want more than anything, is to park myself, and my airstream, adjacent to a creEk, so I can hear the babbling water all night.. which would drown out my own babbling, and make my wife happy for the evening.
