It’s been a couple months since we made the decision to purchase our first Escape Trailer. It arrived this week! Couldn’t be more excited and thrilled with our choice. So much to learn and become familiar with. I had expressed some concerns about my tow vehicle being able to handle the E23. I...

GREETINGS Fellow Ultra Lite travelers!! I'm "new" to this area of FRF having just this past week transitioned from a ROO owner to a brand new 2026 Ultra Lite 301 FKT unit. Please allow me to explain!.... (for those of you who haven't ever read any of my ROO postings, please bear with me...I...

Hello, My name is Tim and my family bought a Reflection 298BH back in November. We are not new to RV’s but this is my first 5th wheel. We’ve been able to take it out a couple times so far and are really enjoying it (A local SP Brazos Bend in Texas and Petit Jean in AR). We also have a trip...

Good morning, everyone. I am joining the community because my wife and I are looking for our first camper. After cursing around the forum as a visitor, I like the vibe here. Some background: I am a lifelong camper but have never owned a RV myself. I have borrowed campers before but never owned...

We finally got to pick up our new (and first) unit yesterday! 2026 Lance 850, no slides, wet bath. We spent our first night in it last night and can't wait to get out for more.

Hi All, As stated, this will be our first long term trip. Never spent longer than 2 weeks in a motorhome. Our kit includes a 2006 Tiffin Allegro Bus QDP 40 towing an 03 Jeep Wrangler Sahara, (both in good order), plus a Jack Russel Terrier on board. We are planning a several month trip leaving...

Just purchased 2026 28BHU Jayco Eagle, Taking first trip this weekend to Galveston for the Mardi Gras. Traded in 2019 Jayco pull behind 28BHS. 1st 5th wheel but liked the way it pulled bringing it home from Houston. Now got to make a spot for it because where I parked the old trailer, I had to...

Building my first Foam camper after watching everything I can on YouTube.

I've spent a night in my bus, but I want to camp in it for the first time.. a real camping trip where I go out and actually drive somewhere and camp.. More of a discovery trip.. because my bus is empty, only having the floor.. All I want to know is there anything I should bring with me for a...

Howdy all. Paul and Amy. We've been camping in a low roof work van with a bed and storage for over 11 years. We're older now and want to stand up to get dressed and not run across the campground to tinkle. This 2014 Vista has issues but the price was right and low mileage. Only 30K on the clock...

Tommorrow we are picking up our Thor Vegas 24.1; our first motorhome. After weeks of reasoning, pleading, whining, and an income tax return, she finally relented and said YES! Now, shes more excited than me. We dont know if we are going North, South, East or West yet, but we are taking our...

My wife and I recently purchased a 2026 Thor Tranquility 24C. It's built on a 2024 Mercedes Sprinter 170 Extended Chassis. It's a 3500 AWD (with an open differential, ugh) with a dually rear axle on beefy 31" BFG A/T KO2 tires. We aptly named it Odin. We've been avid off-roaders and tent and...

Hey all, New to the forum here, looks like a great place! My wife and I have been together just over 40 yrs and camping/rving has been part of our life the whole time. We've been thru a number of travel trailers, with wheels and most recently a large toy hauler. I'm an equipment guy with many...

We're new owners of a 30' Forest River Wildwood tow behind. Planning a trip to Colorado and back from Indianapolis. Was thinking about a southerly route along Route 66 as far as Santa Fe, then north thru Taos/Pueblo to Ft. Collns. Couple of questions: 1. Anyone made a westerly route similar...

Howdy all, I'm in the final preparation stages of my first long trip out west in the brand new Escape 19 F1, from Fort Worth, TX to AZ, with a departure date of January 27. As the temps in N. Texas are forecast to be high twenties/low thirties overnight the first couple of days of the trip...

My name's Paul, and I finally got a teardrop (ok, I got it this past September). I've slept in it about eight night or so so far. I had it built by Timberleaf in CO. It is a 2025 Pika model with pretty much all the options. I plan on using it for overlanding pulled behind my 23 JLU Willys XR...

New to Forum. Just purchased a like new 2020 Springfield 266rl. Excited to dig into the forum and learn more about many things.

Hello! Lurker here--not an owner--BUT!...but, my husband I may take the next baby step to becoming RVers--finally maybe renting one. ;) I'm still looking at the pros and cons, so I knew the right place to ask questions is Air forums. While Cruise America is the biggest, we don't have one in my...

Hello! My hubby and I just purchased our first 5th wheel (long time travel trailer campers) - a 2026 Keystone Cougar 23MLE. Excited to get it home in a couple of weeks. Thanks for having us!

Hi everybody. Just purchased the 2021 Thor Omni BH35 Super C rig last year and getting our feet wet. Retirees looking to put down local roots in Western NY and travel this country in the future before we are unable. So far, so good, but always open to learning more from veteran RV owners and...

First winter with ‘25 Bambi 16RB, not even half through… already had our share of snow dumps, freezing rain and melting cycles… - our model has suicide door… but somebody wise decided, no need for a “wrong side” door locks and handle… so they mounted the one they had upside down. It worked no...

Hi all, we bought a 2015 Thor Vegas this summer, 19k. We have used it sparingly since then only because of our time constraints. What we have found so far, it ran great for about 500 miles the developed a miss fire on start up. I pulled all the drawers and cabinet faces and re-glued and screwed...

My husband and I purchased a 1995 Prevost XL40 and are getting ready to head south away from the Chicago winter (our bus has been serviced at a Prevost service center to ensure it is in good working order). Except for a one week Class C RV rental a few years ago, we're completely new to RVing...
