Hello fellow Forest River owners! I am a teacher/coach in the Coastal Bend area of Texas with an R-pod 172. I am wanting to take my family camping, fishing and wildlife viewing in Colorado. Are there any places off the beaten path that has great fishing and a 2wd truck can make it to? We plan...

Well there will be no camping in my future for some time now. I have no tow vehicle at this time. Someone suddenly stopped two cars ahead of me causing the car ahead of me to slam on brakes. When I saw the brake lights I headed to the grass median to avoid a collision only to be hit very hard...

Well, we all know 2020 was a tough year with everything being Covid related. My wife and I feel lucky we still got in forty-five nights camping this year. Unfortunately, though our grand cross country trip visiting Yellowstone, Napa, Yosemite, and other western locations did get canceled though...

I shopped all around Oregon (and out of state), various rv dealers, online, new and used... and ended up deciding what trailer I wanted before deciding on a dealer. I call around to see who could get me me Wolf Pup 14cc at a good price. Chuck at Apache Camping assisted me in securing this...

We are going to Idaho for a week and the temps are supposed to be 40s during the day and 15-25 during the night. We have the Arctic Pak switch so I know that will help. We'll be using our generator for the furnace etc, so we should be good? Correct? I'm not trying to freeze up!

We have reservations at Dangerfield State Park for two nights. My mother passed away this year so the only close relative left is my brother who lived with my mother and they took care of each other. So Thanksgiving won't be the same so wife and I decided to do it a little different this...

Hi, My family and I will be camping in Mammoth Lakes RV park for Thanksgiving and this will be our first time taking the Salem 27TDSS out camping up in colder weather. The temps will be dropping to the 12s - 13s and I was wondering if I would need to install Tank Heaters. Our trailer has an...

Howdy. 2016 Shasta 25rs. arrived at rv park last night & it got down to 22 degrees In the morning the city water valve was frozen & the fresh water hose too. Brought in hose to warm it up. My neighbor said their should be a heating wire around valve to prevent freezing. We looked and the...

At night it's in the 60's so it you want to beat the 100% humidty your going to run the AC real cold. Or 20 pint with compressor. Pulled over a quart in first 6 hours

Hi, What do we need to do to keep our water tank and pipes (shower, faucets, etc) from freezing? I’m not sure if furnace vents to our tank. We’ll be in electric only site, so will have water tank filled, add antifreeze to black and grey water tanks and the external hoses won’t be connected...

Looking for recommendations for camping at Pigeon Forge / Gatlinburg; for future trips..

Greetings all! My wife and I have been [tent] camping for over 15 years and have decided to get a travel trailer! :) Yay! Not too sure what brand or model, but we've been looking for most of the year and hope to make a selection soon. This forum is chock full of info, so I'll be busy for a...

My wife and I just got back from a 13 day work camping trip from Utah to Tennessee and Back. On this trip we pulled our Forest River E-pro E15TB with our Ford F150. Here is what we learned: The weBoost Drive Sleek (470135) Vehicle Cell Phone Signal Booster...

Does anyone know of a way to add water to the water tank of an Isata 3 using a water jug/can while out dry camping? On my previous class A, I could fill the tank via a hose using city pressure (like I can w the Isata 3) and also by pouring water into a flexible tube connected to the tank using...

Hello all, My name is Kevin and my wife Linda are returning to camping after a 10 year break to look after elder family members. 11 years ago we sold our 8 foot pop up and began looking for a small hard top camper. During our looking the first of the ailing family members came down with cancer...

We are camping these last couple fall weekends before we have to close it up for the winter. Using the furnace I am noticing is causing condensation on the inside of the canvas bed ends. Any suggestions on what to do?

We’re heading to crystal beach in Texas with a G19 geo pro being pulled by Lexus GX. So, anybody know if normal street-ish tires will fare okay in the sand, or if AT tires are mandatory on that beach? I’m curious about the composition of the sand and/or roads (trails); never pulled two tons...

We went on our first outing with our 2021 Cherokee 274DBH, boondocks camping with the juice pack and 12v fridge were suspect at best. Thank goodness for a generator, without it we would have been home in a day. Battery goes from a full charge to beeping at you almost dead by morning. Going to...

We sold our 1978 Taurus 18' at the start of summer and it took all of 15 minutes, the guy on the phone lived 130 miles away and said consider it sold based on just the description and the pictures. Then we got real lucky, a trip to the local Shasta dealer and we got the last Shasta 18BH they had...

Hey there! We just purchased a 2019 Grey Wolf 29TE. We had a successful maiden voyage over the weekend. Since we purchased from a private seller who was not the primary operator of the RV, everything is new to us as this is our very first travel trailer. We’ve downloaded the manual and done lots...

Learning rapidly that travel trailers are not well made. Being in manufacturing I find it hard to believe how poor the quality control is. We have made 5 trips in our 2020 Rockwood A213 camper and have been back at the dealer after 4 of them for warranty repairs. We purchased it in February...
