    Travel trailer owners who rent their trailers

    Had friends in Yuma who lived in a Park Model and had a 5th wheel 6 spaces away who rented it to a couple for a month.  The lady just had to have a bidet and had one installed unbeknownst to the owners.  Then left before the end of the month.  Left them with the bill.
