My head is starting to spin from all the info!  How much will I be pushed around by those rigs, even with the anti-sway? As in, hold on to the steering wheel for dear life while repenting of all my sins (which I might be doing anyway), or is just like...well, there went a big rig!  I'd just like...

Hi Ron! I'm waiting to pick up my TT at the end of the week. I'm a 1st timer from middle GA, graduating from a tent.  I look forward to the day I (we) feel comfortable driving through the mess of Atlanta to camp in those beautiful, N GA mountains!

I've only been here two days, so I feel silly welcoming you. And I certainly have no wisdom to share. We've been tent campers, now hoping to pick up a 15 ft. TT this week that we have a deposit on.  VERY nervous about towing for the 1st time. One good thing about a tent...you can't back it into...

Thanks for the reply!  No worries about safety on my part, my husband jokes that I should work for OSHA! And I've already told him twice we've gotta have tow mirrors. I AM concerned about making errors out of ignorance. Like backing up and bending sway bars  ;D.  We have a large yard, so I'm...

One guy said 15 ft, the other said 20.  Factory says 17' 6".  Gross weight 3200 lbs,  Dry weight 2455 lbs.  I had tried to research on-line before buying to make sure we found something the proper weight. 

Don't laugh....but a heavier load means more sway?  I was thinking lighter loads would have allowed more movement. Our truck is set to be wired this week for a 7 pin harness.  As far as the hitch, we're having that done locally and gave the man the gross weight of the TT and our truck info. ...

We are brand new to this, NEVER towed a thing.  Hopefully we will be able to pick up the 15 ft TT (3200 lbs) we have a deposit on this week, just waiting on the hitch to come in. I'm trying to read & learn everything I can as we have been tent campers and are totally unfamiliar with RV's.  Very...

I haven't visited the forum's library, but I will.  I've been busy reading everyone's questions in case anyone else has the same questions. Hopefully I'll learn most things the easy way, by reading!  My 1st meal won't be impressive, as I have very simple taste, but nothing, in my lowly little...

It has a foot pedal. I did not see a hose near the toilet.  Thanks for the advice about water in the holding tank.  The guy at the dealer told us what kind of toilet tissue we could use, and I noticed today at church that's the same brand.  Wondering if we could steal a few rolls from them and...

Wow, I had no idea that meal comment would generate such interest! PUHLEEZ, do not hold your breath! I've been told I'm a pretty good baker, but certainly nothing I do would impress a chef.  ;)

Hello Everyone! I'm totally new to RV camping, as in the first time I stepped in one was yesterday (we've been tent campers), when we placed a deposit on one. Okay, so that may have been a HUGE mistake, but my husband was finally in a willing mood. We're waiting on our truck to be wired &...
