    Rear slightly lower than the front works for me. No issues with fridge.

    There's a good chance there's a glob of silicon sealant at a joint where 10' sections of gutter are butted together. That glob can cause the gutter to overflow. I found several of these on both sides of my trailer. Removed the globs and put sealant under the gutter rather than in the gutter.

    They have the gutter spout running right in the end of my awning. When it rains you see it run right in the end of the awning. Extended it with a piece of pvc all dry now . Water runs past the awning now .

    These worked for me... they also helped with lessening dirt streaks on the RV.

    I took a piece of the flexible wire wrap and attached it to the end of the gutter, then ran it so the water would drain down the front cap. The wrap is the type that is a flexible tube with the slit so you can put wire inside it. If it get clogged with debris, I either use a piece of wire to run back thru it or just replace it. 10 feet of it should last me until the next decade. Cost was maybe $4 at Harbor Freight. And most people don't even notice it's up there. Did both sides.

    I use a universal washing machine drain hose from Amazon. Works perfectly. I use it mostly when we are using the AC because it pours out right there as well when the trailer is level.

    I just posted this in a 25G thread, going to try this over my front storage and outdoor kitchen doors to help prevent water intrusion:

    https://www.trimlok.com/plastic-extr...il/rain-gutter

    It is basically a flexible rubber gutter with 3M tape that you can kit and mould to an opening. Available cheap on Amazon as well.
