I have used forums in the past and find them very useful. So I am excited to go from boating/water recreation to RV/land based recreations.

We are new to RVing! I am a classic tent camper, but after moving away from home in the fingerlakes of NY and living in OR we are now in VA. Oh my I need AC now and have started looking into trailers. After much research we decided on Escape. We are looking for a used trailer now due to years...

Just brought home our brand new 2509s. I see it came with a FRE-10-GN water filter, and I found where they hid the filter and water pump. Does this mean I DO NOT need an external water filter like every YouTube video suggests I buy? If not, will the filtering be as good as the external filter...

Greetings from Seattle! We have been attracted to Rv's for years and are moving closer to getting started. We really like a 24 foot Shadow Cruiser about 5K pound (empty) trailer towed by a 2018 GMC 2500 cargo van. Gmc says this has a towing capacity of 10K pounds. I have experience driving...

Hi. I just received my used 2019 Momentum 376TH. I have connected to city water and found that I am leaking at the city water inlet on the Nautilis system in the water bay. It's a brisk leak, and I don't want to leave it this way even overnight. I have a pressure regulator at the campground...

I cannot find any video online on the geo pro . How to turn on the heater? I have never done this before. Do I need to switch something on first before I switch the thermistats to a high heat position? I don't know if this is correct. But I Tested out the GAS and it work fine. So I know the...

I have a 2016 38el with a tankless HWH suburban IW60. I have had to run 35 amp service to our RV due to the area we are staying. Would the 35 amp service cause the HWH to go to the FLT in the control panel? It's rather exciting when that happens when the little lady is in the shower. By the...
