    First time Rv: Any thoughts on the Wildwood 36BHBS or general advice?

    I am looking into a used 2013 model for $19k. I am brand new to Rv's. Out of all of the brands/models I have seen, this one has the best floor plan, storage and bunkhouse for our family of 5 (kids are ages 4,6, 10). I know next to nothing about the quality of this brand and am trying to google...

    First time to dewinterize it, Can I walk on my camper roof to check out the roof for any needed re caulking or resealing, or do I need to use a step latter?

    First time out, I must be doing it wrong, everything works.

    Yep, tested it out. All systems are go. Two nights with partial hookups. Had to spend Saturday night reading manuals to figure a few features out, we accidentally had the AC on all night Friday when it was 54 degrees out. :roflblack: Brrrrrrr. We filled up the grey water tank pretty quickly...

    Purchased new on 2/23/15. This was the first trip out with her. Arrived on a Sunday for a 5 day stay and the bedroom slide,a Schwintek, ran out about 4”, went cockeyed, and came to a stop.

    First Time TT purchase-Rockwood 2104S

    We are seriously considering purchasing the mini-light 2104S after attending the RV show in Houston. We really liked the 2109S model with the smaller slide that had a 72" sofa, but there is no possibility of a murphy bed in this unit. Since the 2104S has the murphy bed (husbands' request), the...

    First time water pump

    We have never dry camped or used water without hookups. The weather here has been great (central Fl) and I've been out cleaning the pool deck and other yard stuff. My TT is sitting over there in its garage and I'm going to pull it out tomorrow. Having never used the water pump, is it as easy...

    Today I gave it a shot at winterizing my Windjammer. Checked out all the info I could find in the forums, watched a couple of you tube videos. I decided why not?

    First time Winterizing, have questions!!

    MY wife and I bought a Coachmen Chaparral 40ft 5th wheel (new) the beginning of this month and did our first trip Columbus Day weekend. After reading up on winterizing, I figured I'd attempt to do it myself. The method I used was with an air compressor. So essentially I opened up the hot...

    Sanitizing for first time - have questions

    I am about to sanitize my fresh water tank for the first time (2015 Grey Wolf 23DBH purchased late June - our first camper). We're going on a 4 day trip this weekend and realized I should probably do this instead of buying bottled water all the time. My main question is about the hot water...

    First time TT owners

    Just purchased a 2014 Coachmen Catalina Santara 192SD this summer. We have loved every minute we have spent using it so far. The only issues we have had appear to have been user error on my part. We started small with our first trailer and very green in our knowledge. Any secrets of the...
