Roadmaster Maverick baseplate prototype complete

Roadmaster baseplate prototyping process is complete and should be available for sale around March 18. My truck was the second and final truck in the process and was completed Friday, Feb 4. I added rubber inserts to keep the tubes clean and because it just looks better when not towing. Also added a trickle charge line and again for looks made sure the plate and electric socket cover was also black unlike the first truck. I ncluded a pic of instal height so folks would know the tow bar connection height so they would know if their motorhome needed a high/low hitch adapter for the tow bar to be level, or at least within two inches.

Source for plugs?

That would be good to know where you got the plugs. Mine turns rust red on the inside.
