Keep or toss?

[SnooMc]

So, yesterday I tore out the overhead mirrored bathroom cabinet in our 2019 FC. It made me feel vaguely claustrophobic and gave me vertigo. Anyway, I didn't like it, so out it went (also, those hinges are under pressure, did you know? I didn't. I was nearly taken out by the flying screws! It nearly snapped my fingers off! I digress.)

Question is - not only for the bathroom overhead, but for things like this in general - keep it or toss it? I will never want to put it back up. But will a purely hypothetical future buyer want everything stock? (I might have answered my own question - it won't be stock ever again.) Should I waste storage space on this cabinet (etc) that I hate and will never use again?

Keep, or be willing to accept less money upon resale or trade-in.

[SnooMc]

Well, crap.

Just dispose of it. Never give it another thought. You did answer your own question. And a good answer too.

Thanks, Bill!

I think a lot depends on how long you plan on keeping and using this trailer. If changing size in a year then maybe keep. I have a 2007 where the pantry is gone, the dinette is gone, and the shower door may be gone for a sliding door soon.
Basically we use the trailer for our pleasure and don't plan on selling....ever.
Even if you do get rid of it there is the right buyer for the right trailer regardless of how it is outfitted.
So my advice, save any hardware that might useful and repurposed and toss the rest.

Advertise it on the classifieds, sell it or for free. Your junk is someone else's treasure.

ps: if were me, I would store for next owner's use (though, I've got plenty of storage space at home)

Do you plan to replace the cabinet with some other storage solution? I’ve got a wife. She uses every inch of bathroom storage for a variety of nostrums and witching potions. If I reduced storage in there, I’d be sleeping on the couch—or outdoors...

Brad1, I installed a single shallow shelf (more like an open top box) all the way across. There is room for toothpaste and brushes, and a few other things like lotion and deodorant. I don't wear makeup or do much with hair or nails, so it works for us. We keep meds and things of that nature in the locker over the beds.
I don't have a picture atm, but the whole bathroom looks lighter and bigger!

I made a modification to my dining area (replaced it with a swing up table and added a recliner) on my 2009 25' International FB. I thought it was a brilliant modification and it made the dining area so much better.

Two years ago I traded it in on our 2018 GT. The salesman wanted it to be original for resale purposes. He said it made a big difference relative to value (although he never gave me a figure). Fortunately I kept all the original pieces and put everything back the way it was.

Just my experience for what it is worth.

Good feedback, thanks!
