Greetings! I've been hanging around the forum for a couple of weeks. My wife and I recently purchased a like new 2015 Viking Ultra-Lite 17RD. We have been toying with the whole RV thing for about 5 years. We were pushed past the line by plans to visit Crater Lake Oregon this summer. Our plan is...

Since we live in Florida I never worry about cold weather and winterizing or motorhome. This forum helps a lot. I have one question. There is s lever below the shower that has to do with this process but I can't find in my manuals what it does. Can someone help?

Here's a link to our first outing... One More Time Around: Wolf Pup - First Outing

We are very excited to own our first travel trailer. I haven't camped in many moons and my kids never have. :anim_snoopy: We are the new proud owners of a Cherokee 264CK. We've been busy making lists and reservations. Looking forward to making tow trips this year. One short one to test...

2015 Ram 1500 Big Horn. I have a 2016 Puma 22rbc. I had a 2004 sport trac (pictured in AV and profile) that I pulled with and it worked great for short trips to the local camp ground. But I would definitely know when the puma was getting unruly. My biggest issue was stopping. Not because of...

Just wanted to say hello to the RVing world of Forest River. My wife and I just came off of our maiden run with our first RV that was cut short because of her hearneated disc. Looking forward to trying it again.

We just got our Toad prepped and ready to roll behind our Class A 31' Gas motorhome. Looking for tips or recommendation from anyone who has used the RviBrake2. Thanks for any input!

Well, we spent 90 days this summer in our 27' Wildcat. Nobody got hurt LOL. We really enjoyed it and can't to get back to our summer home in the Berkshires of Ma. The cat kinda liked it too.

Good thing I am hard headed......

2016 Sunseeker 2650 a few weeks ago from a Canadream (Rental agency). Had about 60000 Km on it. The inside was cleaned well, came with new tires and all the carpentry was in excellent shape. The whole unit came with insulated black out blinds which are way better than the cheap pleated ones...

Today my wife and I purchased a 2017 274VFK. We are super excited about it and can't wait for it to arrive at the dealer and begin camping again. Previously had a pop-up. Any advice on owning a travel trailer? Must have items? Etc...

First year with the motorhome, loved every minute. I just cancelled my insurance for the winter months. Should I get something for theft and fire, or is that covered under another insurance?

After 10 years of " camping " in a park model,we are waiting for the arrival of a 25 foot travel trailer. Any suggestions on must have items that we should be purchasing for our first trip out in the spring. :) Never had to deal with tanks or levelling for example..thx;)

What all should we do to prepare to live in our Avenger ATI 20rd winter. What would be the best thing to do with the open bottom? Skirt it or have a professional enclose it. Thanks on advance for the tips.

So new to the forums and ecited to take delivery. I Just picked out my first rv model 274VFK It has an main Faux Rock wall with a tv mount. Now I have been trying to figure out what size tv can be installed. When at dealer they had a 40" hanging on the wall, but not sure the what the weight of...

Hi, I purchased my first RV (Solera 24R) last November mostly because I was tired of sleeping in questionable hotels when going to Dog Shows. After my first trip, I feel in love with the idea of RVing and took my first cross country trip in May with 6 dogs and 3 other people. Thankfully, it...

Hello all, my name is Joe. My wife and I and our two children have just become the owners of a 2014 Wildwood (Forest River) 31kqbts (Is there a forum page for this trailer?). I am excited and a bit overwhelmed, since I have not owned a trailer before. I have been doing a lot of reading and...

Been camping for about 50 years. Just purchased a 2013 28BH from a private party. This looks like a great place to learn about the rig.

We just purchased a new barely used 2016 Shasta Airflyte and all this Learning about how this thing works is pretty intense. I signed up to this forum because my uneducated butt will be asking a lot of questions. :) Realized my water was not getting hot and I think its because it was still in...

Hello there! My boyfriend, puppy, and I are from Southern California and are in our 4th month living full-time in a 2017 Evo T2700. Both of us are in the military, have full-time jobs, and go to school 3x a week. I was a bit apprehensive about the lifestyle change at first. But, so far we are...

We are first time TT owners ... Well almost. We pick it up this Thursday. We plan on taking it on its maiden voyage over Labor Day weekend to a local camp ground. I am a little perplexed as to why there are very few posts related to the 171rb. Could it be that it is just that good ? :thumbsup...

My wife and I have enjoyed tent and shelter camping at various state parks within two hours or so of Fort Worth for the past few years. I am getting closer to retirement age, so we started looking at travel trailers with an eye towards more travel when I do retire. We've occasionally browsed...

We have always wanted a camper, but didn't want to pay storage fees. Obviously, a pop-up was our best option, as we can store it in the garage. When we found an older Rockwood Freedom pop-up in very good condition for a great price, we bought it. Now I'm looking to learn the tips and tricks of...

After 28 years of marriage and my wife letting me do pretty much whatever I want as far as hunting and fishing trips, I figured it is now her turn. So I am selling my hunting camp and we went out and purchased a 2016 Rockwood Roo 19. She has always wanted to be able to go and camp at different...
