We don't have an RV yet, but I'm enjoying all the planning and dreaming that will get us to that point.
I've heard the worst thing for motorhomes is to sit idle for long periods. Here's my plan, let me know if it's a good one or if I'm missing anything...
I work about 30 miles/45 minutes from home. I plan to take the MH to work at least once a month while it's not being used and run the generator and heat or A/C on the trip. I'd start the engine/generator about 5-10 minutes before I leave to let things warm up. Before I leave, I'd start the heat or A/C and let it run for the trip and then I can turn the heat, A/C off and let it cool down for 5-10 once I get there/home before I shut everything off. I think this covers the "run the generator regularly" maintenance as well as keeping things moving occasionally.
Sound good to you guys?
We live in central NJ, so snow isn't a long term factor and I'm sure I can make the trip at least once a month.
Just thought of another thing, should I maybe leave the slides out and level it while at work for the day to exercise those systems as well?
