I've tried to search for similar posts, but I'm not finding anything that specifically mentions travel trailer steps. If one is stopping at a rest area (or other "free" place) to get a few hours of sleep before moving on, is it bad etiquette to have your steps out? I totally understand no...

Our motorhome is parked at our friends farm. The ground next to the hookup they have looks relatively level, however, when I do the auto level, the front driver side wheel is off the ground. I've reparked a couple of times, but same result. I can level it with the jacks if I backup that wheel...

My 5th wheel sets parked within a few feet of my house, and I have always left the refrigerator running when at home. For some reason I felt by it running it would prolong the life of the refrigerator. Who knows if this is true ?? After reading today of a family in Lexington, North Carolina...

I have the unit plugged in, and the microwave and fridge both unplugged, as they run whenever shore power is connected. I am confused. Many say it is ok to be plugged in all winter, others aay not . New AGM batteries, power inverter will run them, also showed 15.00 volts on battery monitor for...

Good day, Has anyone covered their travel trailer and left a ceramic heater on during the winter? We are in Charlotte NC. We have winterized the unit and we do have a solar panel which will be covered. I would leave the batteries where they are since they would charge being plugged into our...

Greetings! Newbie question - My RV is a 2014 Tiffin Allegro Open Road - I'm solo female & I RV F/T and I have a question about leaving my gray tank valve open through mid-30 temperatures this winter - I keep the black tank valve closed - Tiffin keeps the bays(basement) heated - I keep mine...

I have a Grey Wolf 26dbh that I winterized last week. I just realized that I did not dump the water that I blew out of the lines from the black and grey water tanks. I ran antifreeze through the lines. I ended up using 2 1/2 gallons of rv antifreeze. Do I need to go back to the storage...

We bought our 2022 Bambi this year and are doing winterization for the 1st time. It's a 22-foot unit and we bought it used. Quite the nice trailer. It's probably unusual for a first-time travel trailer owner to start with an Airstream. My question is about using RV antifreeze. Following...

Due to some family issues, we are not heading south for the winter for the first time after almost six years of FT living. The rig will be parked on the same spot it's been on all (each) summer in Michigan, and we will be staying in a house about 100 feet from our spot so getting to it and...

Who leaves their RV plugged in all winter? If so do you have it on a timer? 15 amp or 20 amp timer? How long on at a time and how long off?

I know I'm asking a lot of questions lately. It's prep-the-rig-for-the-winter time, so a lot of items are being revisited this month. And we're far enough into RV ownership now that I feel more confident understanding things. So, today's query.... When draining your Water Heater for winter...

Hi All. I made a booboo when winterizing our 2011 rockwood sig ultra light rkss8317 and wondering what you all think of my fix? Wife and kids were all there "helping" so it was kind of chaos. Our trailer is on a seasonal site and we do all of this work on site and leave it there over winter. So...
