It also happened to me a few times. The stab jacks at the back or the wheels might lower themselve into the ground with the weight applied after a day or two of camping and therefore the trailer is a bit unlevelled at the back or one one side of the trailer. Just relevel the jacks or what I found to be effective, is to put blocks (I use Lynx levelers) under the tires, mostly when one side is slightly lower than the other

The tightness is due to the frame twisting slightly when you have it on the leveling jacks. That is a big door and the opening will bind a bit if one corner of the camper is too high. I'm camping right now and noticed the same issue...I reduced the tension on the jack below the kitchen and the situation was resolved.

I've noticed doors binding on both my Tango and the Premier if I crank the jacks too much. Because of my experience with my Tango (cranked it so high the tires lifted), I learned to be more careful with the Premier. That said, I think because the frame is so long with lightweight aluminum framing in the walls, it's easy to twist things even when you don't crank the jacks that much.
While I sometimes notice binding with the front door and have had to adjust the latches on both screen doors, and have noticed tightness/rubbing on some of the inside cupboards and bathroom door, I have not had any problems with the kitchen door. Whenever it happens, however, It is a reminder to myself to make sure I torque each jack to the same setting, and/or ease back a little more.

That's a nice looking camper you have! We leave our AC on 24/7 when its summer time and we're camping. I assume the area you're going to be camping is dry. Just remember if it is humid (most often at night) then you need to keep the fan speed high and/or reduce temperature. If its to low of an air flow going across the coils that may cause them to freeze up. The air conditioners made today usually keep the inside about 20 degrees colder than the air is pulls in. So 100 degrees outside would expect at best to be about 80 degrees inside.
Enjoy your trip!

I have finally got around to taking my mods photos and have posted them to picasa. I have captioned them all so hopefully they make sense if not just ask. Alot of these mods were inspired by all of you and a special tip of the hat to Virtual Garage. I do have a few in there that I think I can call my own and of course feel free to be inspired by and duplicate at will. Here is the link.

I can't open your link, but it might be because I'm on my work computer.
If you click on the "link" little box above the text box when you are posting you can make the link clickable in your post. it's the little picture of earth and a chain link.
I was going to do it for you but I can't open the link so I'm not sure if it works.
