Maybe you should be Joe1 and me be Joe2??

You can be Joe1. I don't respond enough to be a 1, I am happy to be a 2.
If the caulk has dried out and pulled away, the water will find a way in whether the slide is in or out. I know this from experience. On our Montego Bay, we spent an entire summer battling a leak. It turned out that the caulk had dried and pulled away from the fascia and was getting in there. Just to look at it from the outside, the caulk still being in place, everything looked fine. And being the bedroom slide, that fascia was above my eye line. I felt like a complete idiot when I finally discovered the water intrusion point.
