Some other important things to know/do for a new owner:
?
If you have a propane fridge, never run it when not level.? That can ruin it, requiring replacement, and that's expensive
?
If you connect a hose to your trailer, connect a water pressure regulator inline at the faucet.? Some campgrounds have very high water pressure for firefighting.? Connecting without a regulator can be quite spectacular.
?
Rvs are not like cars where they have no issues.? They have teething problems.? So....
?
Camp in your driveway for your first trip.
?
Setup your trailer in your driveway, and let it get hit by rain.? Check it for leaks after 5 minutes, 15 minutes, and a half hour.? Fold it up and put it in the garage if it leaks.? Check in the 4 corners inside the trailer real close, because those are the most likely place for leaks.
?
If you don't have any cooperating rain, set up a garden sprinkler.
?
When you're out camping in the rain, there will be condensation from people inside breathing, and its hard to distinguish condensation from a small leak.
