Great video and easy to follow. We always plug our surge protector in as a first step before disconnecting or leveling. That way, if there is a problem and we have to move sites the move is much easier. Once the surge protector gives us the "all clear" we go ahead and commence the leveling and disconnecting, etc. It doesn't happen often but we are very grateful for this preliminary step when a site move is necessary. 😊
RV Life is About the Journey, that's a great tip knowing if your electric works before all your set up is done, I've not had it happened to me yet but I can't see it being a lot of fun getting the whole setup done having to tear it back down just to move campsites, thank you for commenting
We also were tought to make sure electricity is good first. We actually had a site that there was a problem, so we went to the office, told them, and got another site quickly and all was well. Husband and I both would have been a little upset had we unhooked and had to then move. It is a really good idea. Not a have to, but it works.
I’ve watch a few of these videos, none check the utilities first. I check them first because if I have a problem with water or electric and have to move to another site, I don’t have to hook the trailer up again. Here’s my 10 steps to setting up at a campground. 1. Pull up to the site and look it over before pulling in. Look for overhead branches and debris on the ground, anything that would keep from pulling in. 2, Pull/back into site, check that the utilities work and will reach. Check that the water flows and the pedestal is wired correctly. Spray water faucet with Lysol. Look at sewer hook up for anything unusual. Go no Go. If all above checks out proceed, If not contact campground office to correct problem or get new site. 3. Level trailer side to side and see that steps clear. 4. Chock wheels. 5. Unhook trailer from Truck. 6. Level front to back. 7. Stabilizer jacks down. The rest in any order. 8. Connect water, electric, sewer, cable TV, if applicable. 9. Chairs, awning, table. 10. Cold beverage.
That's a great checklist ralphb.3802, we appreciate you sharing it with everyone, that's why I like the RV community always willing to share great information and great ideas, once again we thank you
Great checklist to have with our new trailer! I copied it and will print and laminate it to keep handy! Thanks for such a wonderful way to avoid mistakes or forget something important! MUCH appreciated!
Rv tips and Travels set up video mentions to check utilities first. Along with some things missed here and in your checklist Ralph. No offense to this video, he’s just a super detailed dude. You also should NOT put your steps down before leveling front to back. If your door is closed, steps on the ground, and the rear is high, once you raise the front you’re going to destroy your entry door when the steps push up. Check out his video, I’ve been doing this almost 15 years and I even learned some things I was doing wrong.
Nice video guys, I just bought one and let me say yes it is stressful your first time out in your second time can be stressful too, but not quite as much as your first one. And on your water hose, I don’t have the white hose. I have a blue high-quality hose that cost me about $40 for 25 feet. It is a high pressure drinking water hose. And I put the filter at the Fossett side and I also put caps on my water hose when I put it away to keep it clean as possible. And there is something else that I didn’t see you guys do that was shown to me by someone that RVs a lot. You should always spray the Fossett at the campsite with Lysol and the end of your hoses with Lysol before connecting it will kill any bacteria or germs that may be on the fittings. And when I am camping and I kid you not when I say this. I have observed numerous people disconnecting and connecting their sewer line to their RV, and then disconnecting and connecting their waterlines to their RV, using the same gloves, they used to disconnect there sewer hose. So after what was told to me and observing what I observed numerous people doing, I am always out there with a can of Lysol spraying the water fittings before I connect my hose to it.
See that's what I love about TH-cam people like yourself point out some very good ideas, to be honest I have never thought of people using the same gloves while connecting their sewer lines and then hooking up their water line, now I'm sort of grossed out I may need to go get a shot of antibiotics LOL, we wanna thank you for sharing with all of us a very good idea, thank you for commenting my friend
You two are absolutely adorable and very smart!! I like your style. So brilliant about the water pressure if you don't have a pressure regulator! Good ol common sense. What got me at the end was how you cracked open a cold "adult beverage" and you we're gentleman enough to hand the first one to your beautiful wife!! THAT'S when I pushed the "like" and "subscribe" button. I love you two already!! We got a rescue dog who has extreme separation anxiety but my husband owns a lobster pier in Southwest Harbor, Maine and we have to be there 5 months out of the year. We live, primarily, in California. You can probably guess but, we now have a very expensive "dog house" and have from now till May, 2025 to figure this all out. We plan on a few practice trips before we leave and you've helped tremendously!! If you ever make up to the Bar Harbor/Acadia National Park area of Maine, reach out! We'd love to treat you to lot's of fresh lobster, crab, mussels, clams, etc. If you're not a fan of lobster, we have fish, chicken, hot dogs and burgers too. Not to mention, a full bar of "adult beverages" and it would be an absolute pleasure to get to know you both.
We have three dogs of our own and I've all the dogs we've had they all have been rescued as a matter of fact we have a new addition which we call him drop off or D.O for short we live out in the country and people drop off dogs all the time we ended up taking him in' cause he was living under our porch, and we do so appreciate you offering us some seafood rose does like some seafood, and I thought that was funny when you said expensive dog house we feel the same, we appreciate you subscribing to the channel but more so than that we appreciate you commenting looking forward to talking to you in the future
@@laureenblechman634 the park is beautiful lots of fun there, we appreciate the offer but no you don't need to send us anything but thanks again, you guys are the greatest and we appreciate you commenting once again
The number of turns on the water only controls the volume of water. One turn or on completely has the same pressure. I have been RVing for years. Your videos will be very helpful to beginners and experienced campers. Very well done.
My husband, who is now retired, talked about getting an RV and traveling the country. So glad you and your wife are enjoying yourselves. This video is helpful and TFS. 👍 Merri :)
I would recommend getting an RV if not just to get away every once in awhile, my wife and I have never regretted it not even once, it's like taking your home with you eating in your home and sleeping in your home, once again Merri thank you for watching and commenting
This week my wife and I (young thirties with two under two and three husky fur balls) picked up our first toy hauler. 28ft double axle and are so excited. We are a motocross racing family and are sick of the tent camping at the race tracks! We also love camping with our huskies. This video helped remind me of the things my parents taught me as a kid about our camper. Thank you so much, Rose is my mother maiden name, so pretty. Have a wonderful week and thank you RV Community for your help!
I agree rose is a beautiful name when I met my wife she was the first person I ever met with the name rose, a very heartfelt congratulations on your new toy hauler RV now you got a place to keep your bikes and a place you can call home to rest after a day of motocrossing which by the way sounds like fun and a place to keep your Huskies cool and your kids comfortable it is like a home away from home, again rose and I congratulate you and let us know how it goes the first time out we look forward to hearing from you again thank you for commenting have a great day and stay safe out there
Nice video for Noobies, thanks for sharing. Good point about leaving the chains hooked until the Travel Trailer is settled. The binding on the hitch ball occurs when the trailer moves and the truck is in park. When my chocks are set, I put the truck in neutral and ease off the brakes to let it settle. This help take the pressure off the ball. Get another pressure regulator! I have two just in case. The fancy one with a gauge and a cheap one for backup. I have a blue fresh water hose thats a little easier to deal with. Flush the hose befor attaching to the RV, just in case anything crawled in there. I don't like to close it. I hang filter on the faucet because I don't want that extra weight hanging on thise cheap plastic fittings on the RV. When its full it can weigh a couple of pounds. Put a 90⁰ fitting on the RV input connector. Take the stress off of that cheap fitting. The clicking noise on the slides is the clutch on the slide motors. I was told its ok to run the slides until the clutch is clicking. Thanks!
Thank you for getting simply to the point. Thank you for not having all the music and the extra. You guys made it clear and explainable. I would like to have a video on the hot water tank. Thanks for making it simple clear to the point God bless you guys be safe.
Thank you for the very nice compliment I will make one on the hot water heater although I did make one on the Android for the hot water heater, and we really appreciate you commenting you have a great day and God bless you too
I am new to all this, this video is so awesome, you folks look like great people! Not gonna lie, did not expect this video to be this informative or have such clear and easy instructions. Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video!
We're glad you found it informative and was able to help you out, but first and foremost we thank you very very much for commenting good luck stay safe and have fun
Well ya know you’re good when the person watching this will never be able to afford an RV like that but still kept watching 😂 Very nice video. Wish my dad could have seen this decades ago when we went camping. I think he would have stressed a lot less!
Heck yeah TH-cam saves the day when it comes to setting up an RV shoot just maintaining it I couldn't imagine back in the day when you would have to figure it out all on your own LOL, and as far as you guys watching we can't thank you enough, thank you for watching and commenting talk to you next time
Congratulations on a comprehensive and easy-to-follow video. From soup to nuts, your lovely assistant and you did an excellent job. Even that helpful level attached to the side of your rig was a unique delight. Thank you for sharing and aafe travels.👍🏾
Thank you Raoul Roberts, I will have to let my lovely assistant Rose know about your compliment, a poor man's level that I put on the side i like to call it my app LOL it does work extremely well and I believe it cost me $3, we appreciate you commenting and you have safe travels yourself hopefully we'll see you next time
Our first trip was to Brooklyn Heights in WVA and it was amazing! Your video definitely helped us get through our first camp! We are planning our next camp as I write this comment lol!
@@Dadoftwins48 we're glad your first camping trip was a success, and you're already planning your next trip looks to us like you caught the RV bug LOL, we appreciate you keeping us updated and let us know how your next trip goes stay safe out there and have fun guys
OH, what a treat to watch you set this up so beautifully! We just brought home the same identical trailer yesterday, and can’t wait to take her on our first trip! In case we are unsure about something, you have given us the perfect set up instructions, so thank you so much!
Thank you OcalaBrew, you say you bought an identical travel trailer is us you are absolutely gonna love it there is so much room and so much countertops that it makes traveling extremely enjoyable, not even to mention that they're built extremely well, remember setting up just take your time order and enjoy yourself at the same time, thank you for commenting we appreciate it and let us know how your first time out goes have fun my friend
I fell in love with this trailer at first look, and I’m so excited to be camping again after 45 years! There’s a lot we forgot and a lot that has changed for the better. I brew a good cup of tea, so if we cross patch’s one day, come on over for a cup! (Or a different choice, of course!). I subscribed, and we will be tuning in! I hope we do meet one day!
@@Brineytoes that sounds like a game plan it also sounds like it'd be a lot of fun, we thank you so much for subscribing and look forward to meeting you one day
Have fun on your first rental, enjoy your adult beverage remember an important part of RV setup LOL, let us know how it goes and we thank you for commenting
Thank you both for these videos! I'm planning to live in an rv so these videos have helped me tremendously in learning not just how to maintain an rv but also what to look for when buying a used rv. Excellent teachers!
I'm grateful that I came across your video detailing the setup process. I found it very helpful. I just purchased my very first camper and I can't wait to get out there and start using it. Thank you.
Congratulations on your new camper you are gonna absolutely love it there's so much fun to be had, we're glad you liked the video and we would like to thank you for commenting have fun and stay safe out there
First-timer here thank you so much, I'm a travel nurse and I'm taking my RV out for the very first time in November , winter time in Southern Illinois 😬🤦🏼♀️ I'll be watching all your videos.
Thank you Jacqueline Holland, we're glad we could help you good luck on your traveling, traveling nurse that sounds like it could be fun at least you're not in the same place all the time, rose and I wanna thank you for what you do, looking forward to hearing about your travels, and we thank you for commenting
I just purchased a rv trailer, very excited and nervous while waiting for it to be delivered since I am epic new and have no experience with it at all. Your video helps soooooo much for someone as a total noob like me😅😅😅… Thanks for sharing this 🙏🙏🙏
Congratulations on your new RV trailer, don't be too nervous it's not difficult but and keep in mind we've all been our first time out, just take your time watch a video before doing it again and you'll be just fine, most importantly don't stress cause stress will make it a lot more difficult and make it harder on yourself, like rose said go slow and ignore everyone around you, have fun and let us know how it goes out there the first time good luck, and we thank you very much for commenting
Thank u for the tutorial, I did make the mistake of not securing my wheels the first time out in my new travel trailer, Won't happen again, I did learn a few tips u gave out!!! Thank U😊
You are very welcome alfredocarrillo9420, it's funny after you make the mistake the first time you never do it again LOL, I'm glad you got a few helpful tips, we thank you for commenting and we'll see you soon
Thank you so much for sharing. As first time owners, we appreciate all the advice we can get. The steps you provided were very helpful. I especially appreciate the idea of connecting the water filter to the camper side of the hose. I'll make that change right away.
thank you Peter Thornburg, we were the same way when we first started out all the advice we can get really helped, yeah the water filter on the camper side really helps out with the smell specially if you stay at an RV park with bad water, but first and foremost I wanna thank you for subscribing and commenting we'll see you next time
I think we all have done something or should I say forgot to do something and had a good laugh as long as nothing breaks LOL, thank you ULA for commenting and watching the video
Thank you so much for that video! I’m getting back into the camper lifestyle after a few years and this was by far the most laid back no stress tutorial out there! Stay safe and happy travels friends!
Wow I think that was the best compliment I've ever gotten, thank you so much and congratulations on getting back into the RV lifestyle you stay safe as well and have a great day
I liked the tip about leaving the chains on, which I’ve been doing just because it seemed convenient. I have never had a trailer disconnect as smoothly as yours did - whether very small utility trailers, the small camper we had for several years or the 29 ft RV we bought just recently.
We believe leaving the chains on is just better safe than sorry, it doesn't always come off smoothly but most of the time it does, congratulations on your new 29 foot RV, hopefully we'll see you guys next time
Very informative thank you. I just got a 5th wheel toy hauler and don't know what I'm doing...😂 But it's folks like y'all that I turn to for help. Thanks again. Happy camping
Congratulations on your new fifth wheel, I think we all started out not knowing what we were doing or how to do it TH-cam help me tremendously too when I first started out, happy camping to you too and let us know how it goes talk to you next time
Wow. Thank you so much. I subscribed to the channel and look forward to loads of information. I just bought my first trailer. It's a little guy only 15' but that's a lot for me and my wife. As a newbie I've had such anxiety from when I brought it home trying to not crash into my house parking it on an uneven, unpaved driveway. The dealer didn't tell me about chocking the wheels, using something to prop up the tongue with a block of wood like you have, etc. They did give me a walk thru but I didn't get an owner manual so I had no idea how to even open the door without the keypad code. It's been a bumpy ride so far. So again thank you. I look forward to learning so much more.
We thank you MuscleyMan Comics, we know exactly how you feel when we first start RVing we had not a clue on how to set up or maintain a RV, we did get an owners manual but it didn't teach us a thing LOL, as rose just said once you set it up one time it becomes easier and easier from there just remember to take your time do it at your own pace and pay no attention to the onlookers cause they had to start off somehow, you will do just fine, we look forward to hearing about your first adventure out and we thank you for subscribing and commenting and we will see you next time
❤❤❤ I feel better as I watched the full video, very informative you made my fear go away. We are taking our toy hauler out for the first time and I will follow you're video once I get to the camp site...thank you so much
Thank you very much for the compliment, I think all of us when we take our RV out for the first time are nervous until we've done it at least once or twice, just remember to have fun and take your time, enjoy your first time out and let us know how it goes, looking forward to hearing from you next time
Great job on set up, I myself have attached a water pressure regulator to the coach and it’s on a 45 degree angle, then I won’t leave it by accident on the park faucet . I’ve found that if I connect the hose to the park faucet and turn the water on ever so slightly it will push 90 percent of the air from the hose before entering the coach. Less time to bleed the faucets. Great job and enjoy your adult beverage.
Oh that's a great idea I never thought of getting a 45 degree angle to connect it to the travel trailer, that's why I love the RV community people like yourself with great ideas are willing to help, we are so glad you subscribed and look forward to talking to you again thank you
I believe all RVers when they first set up their RV for the first time found it a little stressful, I won't lie I know we did that's why I watched a few videos, but the best way to learn as always is hands on, after that I'm not saying we never make mistakes but yes it sure is a lot more simple and not stressful, we wish you good luck and let us know how it works out
I hope you and your wife are enjoying camping, now that you got your second camping experience you guys should be pros by now LOL, as my wife always says doesn't matter how many times you go camping you always run into a strange situation while setting up, and you are welcome for the tip, did your RV roll on you?
You're gonna absolutely love the RV lifestyle people are so down to earth and enjoying it with your family will make it even better, we appreciate you subscribing but first and foremost we appreciate you commenting have a great day and stay safe my friend
We were all nervous the first time setting up the RV, we remember looking at several videos trying to get an idea of what we were in store for all will be fine, just take your time have fun and don't worry about people around you, congratulations I'm being first time our viewers stay safe let us know how it works out and thank you very much for commenting
Great video! Just bought a new camper for my family of 6. Want to bond in a different way with wife and kids and very excited to start. Thanks for building my confidence on the setup process.
If you never had an RV before you going to absolutely love it every time we go out we always say we need to do it more often, it absolutely is a great bonding experience, as far as setting it up it's only nerve wracking the first time just take your time and you'll do just fine, we thank you very much for commenting and congratulations on your new RV
Nice flagstaff. I’ve got the same Rockwood 2019. U do everything exactly like me & my wife do. I do all outside she does all inside. Even down to same zero gravity chairs and beer ….
Well you guys like yours as much as we do good for you it is a beautiful floor plan, ohh and heck yeah you gotta have the zero gravity chairs and the beer, next time I crack one open i will keep you guys in mind, and we really appreciate you commenting thank you
Really enjoyed the video. I've been doing it for years but still like to watch other people do it. Maybe I can do something a little better. Great job.
Thank you Herbie Leverton, that's a great compliment coming from somebody that's done it as long as you have, we thank you for your comment and we'll see you next time
As long as nobody got hurt they do make for great campfire stories, I'm sure there'll be more lessons to learn along the way I know for us there have been, welcome to RVing and we appreciate you watching the video and commenting hope to talk to you soon
I already have a new water pressure gauge, thanks for the suggestion you are absolutely right I should put all stabilizers down first, we thank you for your suggestions and thank you for commenting
I understand where you're coming from not too long ago I was in the same position, I'm glad it helped happy Father's Day, and we thank you very much for commenting
Thinking about getting a small RV and your video was very helpful. It gave me some insights as to what to expected. Thank you for making and posting this video.
Thank you very much we appreciate your comment, it's not bad setting it up I believe it takes us about 30 minutes total, let us know if you decide to get one again thank you and have a great day

Wonderful video. Great tips for setting up the camper. We just bought our camper in the winter. And now we can't wait to use it Come summer. I wrote down your steps.Do you setting up the r v. Our trailer is very similar to yours. This will go a long way to reducing angst. During that first setup. Thank you for making this video!
I bet you summer is gonna take its time getting here seems how you have a new RV LOL, we did the same thing as you we watch several videos on setting up and it does help just remember to take your time and don't worry about what other people are doing, we appreciate you commenting
That's a great idea LifeIsAJourney4Us, I would hate to have it almost all set up and have to move my site, that's what I love about the TH-cam community people putting in their inputs and giving some great advice like yourself, thanks for the advice and commenting

First welcome to RVing javierantoniocruz2852, I can relate to what you're saying watching videos was the best for us also when we first started out, good luck my friend and have fun
Wow davidhillman3410, I think that has to be one of the best compliments I've had, we thank you so much for your comment, and we hope you have a great day
Thanks for the video guys absolutely loved it and informative. Me and the wife are looking into one so I’m soaking in some knowledge before hand. Plus we have the same truck! I think it’s a sign hahaha much love.
Well if you have the same truck as us then it is a good sign, I like that you are soaking in the knowledge before purchasing an RV, when you get one you are gonna absolutely love it both you and the wife, I know rose loves ours, you have to let us know when you get one we're getting excited for you, thank you for watching and commenting and we hope to see you next time
See now that's what I'm saying cracking 1 open after you put the truck in park, unfortunately rose has a different idea do the setup first then I'm allowed to have a beer LOL, and since rose has the majority of the common sense in this household I guess I will just have to do it her way LOL, I do appreciate you commenting and I will show rose that I'm not the only one that believes beer comes first 😀
You are very welcome, when we first started out we have never set up an RV before and it was one of our biggest worries, so we are glad we can pay it forward, it's actually very easy when you get into a routine, have fun out there and thank you for commenting
We're glad you found the video useful, and wow first RV trip to the redwood forest that sounds like it'll be a lot of fun, let us know how your trip goes and thank you for commenting
Great video , only one critic-by my experience…. Check water and power BEFORE. Doing such a great full set up…. Nothing sucks more than “practicing” for your next spot.
You are absolutely right and we appreciate you giving such great advice, and we wanna thank you for being a subscriber looking forward to talking to you next time have a great day have fun camping
We're glad you found it helpful, we all have to start out sometime and I know the setup made me nervous for the first time, good luck and thank you very much for commenting
Love your channel love tge informative content Only one complaint. The damn bud lite I have not bought bud since they went woke 5 years ago But I am happy to say loved this video it helped so much and we are newbies ThNk you learned lots in this short clip ❤

Wow that has to be the best compliment we have gotten on this video specially coming from a know it all LOL, we love British Columbia I stayed there for six months in Whistler and black hole mountains loved every minute of it, we appreciate and thank you for commenting and hopefully we'll see you next time
I agree like I mentioned in the video I had left my pressure regulator at the previous campsite, but you are absolutely right and we thank you for commenting have a great day
Great video. You have a system as do i and that’s a good thing. But I gotta say, the bars? It doesn’t matter what side you use them on. Mine get mixed up all the time. They’re identical. Not left/right specific.
1st we like to thank you TFordF150 for being a subscriber, also we're glad you liked the video, to the comment about the bars I know you're right even rose says it's only my OCD getting the better of me she even gets a giggle every time I make sure to put them on the same spot LOL, but I guess you can say it's part of my system LOL, TFordF150 we thank you for commenting and hope to see you soon
@@RVFieldTrip we bought a Winnebago Minni. It’s about 27’ dry weight at about 5020lbs. About 5500 filled. I have pulled trailers before for work but it was a carpet cleaning unit and completely different than pulling an rv I’m sure. It’s got a pop out as well for a smaller rv it has a ton of room.
@@benspoliticsandnewsbencook9151 congratulations on your Winnebago, I don't know if you pulled an trailer that size before if you haven't then I suggest watching a video on tail swings, otherwise it will be practically the same as what you're used to, I hope you guys enjoy it as much as we have and let us know the first time you take it out, good luck my friend
@@RVFieldTrip I will watch that video as well then. Just because it’s been a while. I have pulled a 30’ but it was a flat bed and we used to haul restaurant equipment on it. Reach in refrigerators stoves all that professional kitchen appliances and stuff like that.
We are glad you liked the information in the video, why are you getting rid of the tailgate on your truck, I doubt your memory is getting that bad we've all lost our mind in one way shape or form LOL
Great video and easy to follow. We always plug our surge protector in as a first step before disconnecting or leveling. That way, if there is a problem and we have to move sites the move is much easier. Once the surge protector gives us the "all clear" we go ahead and commence the leveling and disconnecting, etc. It doesn't happen often but we are very grateful for this preliminary step when a site move is necessary. 😊
RV Life is About the Journey, that's a great tip knowing if your electric works before all your set up is done, I've not had it happened to me yet but I can't see it being a lot of fun getting the whole setup done having to tear it back down just to move campsites, thank you for commenting
Omg ty for that advice!!
We also were tought to make sure electricity is good first. We actually had a site that there was a problem, so we went to the office, told them, and got another site quickly and all was well. Husband and I both would have been a little upset had we unhooked and had to then move. It is a really good idea. Not a have to, but it works.
@angiefitzgerald1409 we unfortunately had to learn it the hard way so I am glad that some are being taught before they run into it. :)
Thank you for sharing 👍
I’ve watch a few of these videos, none check the utilities first. I check them first because if I have a problem with water or electric and have to move to another site, I don’t have to hook the trailer up again. Here’s my 10 steps to setting up at a campground.
1. Pull up to the site and look it over before pulling in. Look for overhead branches and debris on the ground, anything that would keep from pulling in.
2, Pull/back into site, check that the utilities work and will reach. Check that the water flows and the pedestal is wired correctly. Spray water faucet with Lysol. Look at sewer hook up for anything unusual.
Go no Go. If all above checks out proceed, If not contact campground office to correct problem or get new site.
3. Level trailer side to side and see that steps clear.
4. Chock wheels.
5. Unhook trailer from Truck.
6. Level front to back.
7. Stabilizer jacks down.
The rest in any order.
8. Connect water, electric, sewer, cable TV, if applicable.
9. Chairs, awning, table.
10. Cold beverage.
That's a great checklist ralphb.3802, we appreciate you sharing it with everyone, that's why I like the RV community always willing to share great information and great ideas, once again we thank you
Great checklist to have with our new trailer! I copied it and will print and laminate it to keep handy! Thanks for such a wonderful way to avoid mistakes or forget something important! MUCH appreciated!
Rv tips and Travels set up video mentions to check utilities first. Along with some things missed here and in your checklist Ralph. No offense to this video, he’s just a super detailed dude. You also should NOT put your steps down before leveling front to back. If your door is closed, steps on the ground, and the rear is high, once you raise the front you’re going to destroy your entry door when the steps push up. Check out his video, I’ve been doing this almost 15 years and I even learned some things I was doing wrong.
Nice video guys, I just bought one and let me say yes it is stressful your first time out in your second time can be stressful too, but not quite as much as your first one. And on your water hose, I don’t have the white hose. I have a blue high-quality hose that cost me about $40 for 25 feet. It is a high pressure drinking water hose. And I put the filter at the Fossett side and I also put caps on my water hose when I put it away to keep it clean as possible. And there is something else that I didn’t see you guys do that was shown to me by someone that RVs a lot. You should always spray the Fossett at the campsite with Lysol and the end of your hoses with Lysol before connecting it will kill any bacteria or germs that may be on the fittings. And when I am camping and I kid you not when I say this. I have observed numerous people disconnecting and connecting their sewer line to their RV, and then disconnecting and connecting their waterlines to their RV, using the same gloves, they used to disconnect there sewer hose. So after what was told to me and observing what I observed numerous people doing, I am always out there with a can of Lysol spraying the water fittings before I connect my hose to it.
See that's what I love about TH-cam people like yourself point out some very good ideas, to be honest I have never thought of people using the same gloves while connecting their sewer lines and then hooking up their water line, now I'm sort of grossed out I may need to go get a shot of antibiotics LOL, we wanna thank you for sharing with all of us a very good idea, thank you for commenting my friend
You two are absolutely adorable and very smart!! I like your style. So brilliant about the water pressure if you don't have a pressure regulator! Good ol common sense.
What got me at the end was how you cracked open a cold "adult beverage" and you we're gentleman enough to hand the first one to your beautiful wife!! THAT'S when I pushed the "like" and "subscribe" button. I love you two already!!
We got a rescue dog who has extreme separation anxiety but my husband owns a lobster pier in Southwest Harbor, Maine and we have to be there 5 months out of the year. We live, primarily, in California. You can probably guess but, we now have a very expensive "dog house" and have from now till May, 2025 to figure this all out. We plan on a few practice trips before we leave and you've helped tremendously!!
If you ever make up to the Bar Harbor/Acadia National Park area of Maine, reach out! We'd love to treat you to lot's of fresh lobster, crab, mussels, clams, etc. If you're not a fan of lobster, we have fish, chicken, hot dogs and burgers too. Not to mention, a full bar of "adult beverages" and it would be an absolute pleasure to get to know you both.
We have three dogs of our own and I've all the dogs we've had they all have been rescued as a matter of fact we have a new addition which we call him drop off or D.O for short we live out in the country and people drop off dogs all the time we ended up taking him in' cause he was living under our porch, and we do so appreciate you offering us some seafood rose does like some seafood, and I thought that was funny when you said expensive dog house we feel the same, we appreciate you subscribing to the channel but more so than that we appreciate you commenting looking forward to talking to you in the future
The offer is real, you’d love Southwest Harbor and Bar Harbor, ME if you’ve never been. Acadia national Park is a must see!!!
@@laureenblechman634 the park is beautiful lots of fun there, we appreciate the offer but no you don't need to send us anything but thanks again, you guys are the greatest and we appreciate you commenting once again
The number of turns on the water only controls the volume of water. One turn or on completely has the same pressure. I have been RVing for years. Your videos will be very helpful to beginners and experienced campers. Very well done.
Thank you toddfry7861, and you are absolutely right, thank you for commenting
👍🇺🇲
Glad I’m not the only one that knows there is a difference in volume and pressure. He’s going to learn the hard way
I think the more you turn the water the more the pressure increase which put more gpm
@@tkimble8165 water pressure remains the same whether partially or fully opened. The quantity is all that changes
My husband, who is now retired, talked about getting an RV and traveling the country. So glad you and your wife are enjoying yourselves. This video is helpful and TFS. 👍 Merri :)
I would recommend getting an RV if not just to get away every once in awhile, my wife and I have never regretted it not even once, it's like taking your home with you eating in your home and sleeping in your home, once again Merri thank you for watching and commenting
This week my wife and I (young thirties with two under two and three husky fur balls) picked up our first toy hauler. 28ft double axle and are so excited. We are a motocross racing family and are sick of the tent camping at the race tracks! We also love camping with our huskies.
This video helped remind me of the things my parents taught me as a kid about our camper. Thank you so much, Rose is my mother maiden name, so pretty. Have a wonderful week and thank you RV Community for your help!
I agree rose is a beautiful name when I met my wife she was the first person I ever met with the name rose, a very heartfelt congratulations on your new toy hauler RV now you got a place to keep your bikes and a place you can call home to rest after a day of motocrossing which by the way sounds like fun and a place to keep your Huskies cool and your kids comfortable it is like a home away from home, again rose and I congratulate you and let us know how it goes the first time out we look forward to hearing from you again thank you for commenting have a great day and stay safe out there
Nice video for Noobies, thanks for sharing.
Good point about leaving the chains hooked until the Travel Trailer is settled.
The binding on the hitch ball occurs when the trailer moves and the truck is in park.
When my chocks are set, I put the truck in neutral and ease off the brakes to let it settle.
This help take the pressure off the ball.
Get another pressure regulator! I have two just in case. The fancy one with a gauge and a cheap one for backup.
I have a blue fresh water hose thats a little easier to deal with.
Flush the hose befor attaching to the RV, just in case anything crawled in there. I don't like to close it.
I hang filter on the faucet because I don't want that extra weight hanging on thise cheap plastic fittings on the RV. When its full it can weigh a couple of pounds.
Put a 90⁰ fitting on the RV input connector. Take the stress off of that cheap fitting.
The clicking noise on the slides is the clutch on the slide motors.
I was told its ok to run the slides until the clutch is clicking.
Thanks!
Thank you for all the great ideas some of which I've already done, but those are some great tips we appreciate you sharing
Thank you for getting simply to the point. Thank you for not having all the music and the extra. You guys made it clear and explainable. I would like to have a video on the hot water tank. Thanks for making it simple clear to the point God bless you guys be safe.
Thank you for the very nice compliment I will make one on the hot water heater although I did make one on the Android for the hot water heater, and we really appreciate you commenting you have a great day and God bless you too
I am new to all this, this video is so awesome, you folks look like great people! Not gonna lie, did not expect this video to be this informative or have such clear and easy instructions. Thank you so much for taking the time to make this video!
We're glad you found it informative and was able to help you out, but first and foremost we thank you very very much for commenting good luck stay safe and have fun
Well ya know you’re good when the person watching this will never be able to afford an RV like that but still kept watching 😂 Very nice video. Wish my dad could have seen this decades ago when we went camping. I think he would have stressed a lot less!
Heck yeah TH-cam saves the day when it comes to setting up an RV shoot just maintaining it I couldn't imagine back in the day when you would have to figure it out all on your own LOL, and as far as you guys watching we can't thank you enough, thank you for watching and commenting talk to you next time
Congratulations on a comprehensive and easy-to-follow video. From soup to nuts, your lovely assistant and you did an excellent job. Even that helpful level attached to the side of your rig was a unique delight. Thank you for sharing and aafe travels.👍🏾
Thank you Raoul Roberts, I will have to let my lovely assistant Rose know about your compliment, a poor man's level that I put on the side i like to call it my app LOL it does work extremely well and I believe it cost me $3, we appreciate you commenting and you have safe travels yourself hopefully we'll see you next time
I bought my first camper and our first camp will be next week. I will be watching this again! Thanks you two
Congratulations on your first camper, let us know how it goes next week, thank you for commenting
Our first trip was to Brooklyn Heights in WVA and it was amazing! Your video definitely helped us get through our first camp! We are planning our next camp as I write this comment lol!
@@Dadoftwins48 we're glad your first camping trip was a success, and you're already planning your next trip looks to us like you caught the RV bug LOL, we appreciate you keeping us updated and let us know how your next trip goes stay safe out there and have fun guys
OH, what a treat to watch you set this up so beautifully! We just brought home the same identical trailer yesterday, and can’t wait to take her on our first trip! In case we are unsure about something, you have given us the perfect set up instructions, so thank you so much!
Thank you OcalaBrew, you say you bought an identical travel trailer is us you are absolutely gonna love it there is so much room and so much countertops that it makes traveling extremely enjoyable, not even to mention that they're built extremely well, remember setting up just take your time order and enjoy yourself at the same time, thank you for commenting we appreciate it and let us know how your first time out goes have fun my friend
I fell in love with this trailer at first look, and I’m so excited to be camping again after 45 years! There’s a lot we forgot and a lot that has changed for the better. I brew a good cup of tea, so if we cross patch’s one day, come on over for a cup! (Or a different choice, of course!). I subscribed, and we will be tuning in! I hope we do meet one day!
@@Brineytoes that sounds like a game plan it also sounds like it'd be a lot of fun, we thank you so much for subscribing and look forward to meeting you one day
Thanks! Getting ready for our first rental. 😁 Love the adult beverage tip at the end. 😄🍷
Have fun on your first rental, enjoy your adult beverage remember an important part of RV setup LOL, let us know how it goes and we thank you for commenting
the chains is such a good point!!! Thank you for the advice :)
Keeping the chain on always looked at it like better safe than sorry, and we truly appreciate you commenting have a great day
Looking forward to your next video
I should be putting one up in the next week and we look forward to your comment, thank you
I loved the way your guys explained, thanks you so much and have fun out there.

Setting up for the first time today, thank you for this video!
Congratulations on your first time setup, you have to let us know how it goes good luck have fun and thank you very much for commenting
Thank you both for these videos! I'm planning to live in an rv so these videos have helped me tremendously in learning not just how to maintain an rv but also what to look for when buying a used rv. Excellent teachers!
We both appreciate your compliment, good luck and happy hunting for a new RV and we both thank you for commenting stay safe and have fun
I'm grateful that I came across your video detailing the setup process. I found it very helpful. I just purchased my very first camper and I can't wait to get out there and start using it. Thank you.
Congratulations on your new camper you are gonna absolutely love it there's so much fun to be had, we're glad you liked the video and we would like to thank you for commenting have fun and stay safe out there
First-timer here thank you so much, I'm a travel nurse and I'm taking my RV out for the very first time in November , winter time in Southern Illinois 😬🤦🏼♀️ I'll be watching all your videos.
Thank you Jacqueline Holland, we're glad we could help you good luck on your traveling, traveling nurse that sounds like it could be fun at least you're not in the same place all the time, rose and I wanna thank you for what you do, looking forward to hearing about your travels, and we thank you for commenting
Thanks for the demonstration. We are newbies and have found this helpful.
We're glad you found it helpful, congratulations and welcome to the RV life, let us know how it works out for you good luck and have fun
I just purchased a rv trailer, very excited and nervous while waiting for it to be delivered since I am epic new and have no experience with it at all. Your video helps soooooo much for someone as a total noob like me😅😅😅… Thanks for sharing this 🙏🙏🙏
Congratulations on your new RV trailer, don't be too nervous it's not difficult but and keep in mind we've all been our first time out, just take your time watch a video before doing it again and you'll be just fine, most importantly don't stress cause stress will make it a lot more difficult and make it harder on yourself, like rose said go slow and ignore everyone around you, have fun and let us know how it goes out there the first time good luck, and we thank you very much for commenting
Thank u for the tutorial, I did make the mistake of not securing my wheels the first time out in my new travel trailer, Won't happen again, I did learn a few tips u gave out!!! Thank U😊
You are very welcome alfredocarrillo9420, it's funny after you make the mistake the first time you never do it again LOL, I'm glad you got a few helpful tips, we thank you for commenting and we'll see you soon
Thank you so much for sharing. As first time owners, we appreciate all the advice we can get. The steps you provided were very helpful. I especially appreciate the idea of connecting the water filter to the camper side of the hose. I'll make that change right away.
thank you Peter Thornburg, we were the same way when we first started out all the advice we can get really helped, yeah the water filter on the camper side really helps out with the smell specially if you stay at an RV park with bad water, but first and foremost I wanna thank you for subscribing and commenting we'll see you next time
LoL I have forgotten to put my stabilizer down 2 times, each time laughing at myself, hated having to pull slides back in, great step by step video
I think we all have done something or should I say forgot to do something and had a good laugh as long as nothing breaks LOL, thank you ULA for commenting and watching the video
Thank you so much for that video! I’m getting back into the camper lifestyle after a few years and this was by far the most laid back no stress tutorial out there! Stay safe and happy travels friends!
Wow I think that was the best compliment I've ever gotten, thank you so much and congratulations on getting back into the RV lifestyle you stay safe as well and have a great day
Thank you 8m buying a 34 foot trailer next month your video helped me so much Thank you
Congratulations on your 30 foot trailer, let us know how it goes your first time out fun times to have, and we thank you for commenting
I liked the tip about leaving the chains on, which I’ve been doing just because it seemed convenient. I have never had a trailer disconnect as smoothly as yours did - whether very small utility trailers, the small camper we had for several years or the 29 ft RV we bought just recently.
We believe leaving the chains on is just better safe than sorry, it doesn't always come off smoothly but most of the time it does, congratulations on your new 29 foot RV, hopefully we'll see you guys next time
Very informative thank you. I just got a 5th wheel toy hauler and don't know what I'm doing...😂 But it's folks like y'all that I turn to for help. Thanks again. Happy camping
Congratulations on your new fifth wheel, I think we all started out not knowing what we were doing or how to do it TH-cam help me tremendously too when I first started out, happy camping to you too and let us know how it goes talk to you next time
Three turns is good. Thanks.
That's just about right and we do appreciate you commenting thank you
Pretty helpful and professional, thanks you two! 😀
Thank you very much and we appreciate you commenting have a great day
Just watched your setting up video excellent 👍 very well explained and to the point. Thank You both of you stay safe and take care of each other
We appreciate your compliment and we're glad you enjoyed it, make sure you guys have fun and stay safe out there as well
Wow. Thank you so much. I subscribed to the channel and look forward to loads of information. I just bought my first trailer. It's a little guy only 15' but that's a lot for me and my wife. As a newbie I've had such anxiety from when I brought it home trying to not crash into my house parking it on an uneven, unpaved driveway. The dealer didn't tell me about chocking the wheels, using something to prop up the tongue with a block of wood like you have, etc. They did give me a walk thru but I didn't get an owner manual so I had no idea how to even open the door without the keypad code. It's been a bumpy ride so far. So again thank you. I look forward to learning so much more.
We thank you MuscleyMan Comics, we know exactly how you feel when we first start RVing we had not a clue on how to set up or maintain a RV, we did get an owners manual but it didn't teach us a thing LOL, as rose just said once you set it up one time it becomes easier and easier from there just remember to take your time do it at your own pace and pay no attention to the onlookers cause they had to start off somehow, you will do just fine, we look forward to hearing about your first adventure out and we thank you for subscribing and commenting and we will see you next time
❤❤❤ I feel better as I watched the full video, very informative you made my fear go away. We are taking our toy hauler out for the first time and I will follow you're video once I get to the camp site...thank you so much
Thank you very much for the compliment, I think all of us when we take our RV out for the first time are nervous until we've done it at least once or twice, just remember to have fun and take your time, enjoy your first time out and let us know how it goes, looking forward to hearing from you next time
Great job on set up, I myself have attached a water pressure regulator to the coach and it’s on a 45 degree angle, then I won’t leave it by accident on the park faucet . I’ve found that if I connect the hose to the park faucet and turn the water on ever so slightly it will push 90 percent of the air from the hose before entering the coach. Less time to bleed the faucets. Great job and enjoy your adult beverage.
Oh that's a great idea I never thought of getting a 45 degree angle to connect it to the travel trailer, that's why I love the RV community people like yourself with great ideas are willing to help, we are so glad you subscribed and look forward to talking to you again thank you
Thanks for sharing this video. While pro RV'ers might find it simple, for us tenderfoots, its very educational.
I believe all RVers when they first set up their RV for the first time found it a little stressful, I won't lie I know we did that's why I watched a few videos, but the best way to learn as always is hands on, after that I'm not saying we never make mistakes but yes it sure is a lot more simple and not stressful, we wish you good luck and let us know how it works out
such a humble kool couple
Wow what a great compliment, we appreciate it and we also appreciate you commenting have a great day
My wife and I just got home today from our 2nd camping adventure with a travel trailer. Thanks for the tip about keeping the chains hooked up.
I hope you and your wife are enjoying camping, now that you got your second camping experience you guys should be pros by now LOL, as my wife always says doesn't matter how many times you go camping you always run into a strange situation while setting up, and you are welcome for the tip, did your RV roll on you?
Al & rose back it, level it, electro it, water it, expand it, and relax it. See y'all down the road.
Rodney Sammons, relaxing is the name of the game, we hope to see you down the road also
Such a great detailed video. Thank you for putting it together. Hope you enjoy your travels in peace.

Great video! Just bought a new camper for my family of 6. Want to bond in a different way with wife and kids and very excited to start. Thanks for building my confidence on the setup process.
If you never had an RV before you going to absolutely love it every time we go out we always say we need to do it more often, it absolutely is a great bonding experience, as far as setting it up it's only nerve wracking the first time just take your time and you'll do just fine, we thank you very much for commenting and congratulations on your new RV
Good video, and step by step set up procedure.
Thank you and we really appreciate you commenting have a great day
My wife and I bought our 1st camper. Thanks for the tips

Nice flagstaff. I’ve got the same Rockwood 2019. U do everything exactly like me & my wife do. I do all outside she does all inside. Even down to same zero gravity chairs and beer ….
Well you guys like yours as much as we do good for you it is a beautiful floor plan, ohh and heck yeah you gotta have the zero gravity chairs and the beer, next time I crack one open i will keep you guys in mind, and we really appreciate you commenting thank you
Great video for us beginners. Thanks
Glad you liked it and we thank you very much for commenting have a great day
Really enjoyed the video. I've been doing it for years but still like to watch other people do it. Maybe I can do something a little better. Great job.
Thank you Herbie Leverton, that's a great compliment coming from somebody that's done it as long as you have, we thank you for your comment and we'll see you next time
Great video. Easy to follow along and add items to my shopping cart. Thank wI appreciate you taking your time.
We're glad you enjoyed the video and found it helpful, and we appreciate you for taking the time to comment we hope you have a great day
I totally agree with leaving the chains on I found out the hard way being new to rving lesson learned
As long as nobody got hurt they do make for great campfire stories, I'm sure there'll be more lessons to learn along the way I know for us there have been, welcome to RVing and we appreciate you watching the video and commenting hope to talk to you soon
I agree - we've learned electricity & surge protector first. Saved lots of grief of having to move after all,else is done.
Great comment thank you
You guys are so awesome! Gorgeous couple! Thank you for the info vid!
We both thank you very much what a great compliment, we really appreciate you commenting and hope you have a great day
90° elbow on where you hook the water up to the camper, just a thought 😊
You are absolutely right and we did purchase a a 90° elbow, we appreciate you commenting and your idea
Good video, you really need a water pressure gauge and my suggestion on the stabilizers is to put them all down before giving the little bit extra.
I already have a new water pressure gauge, thanks for the suggestion you are absolutely right I should put all stabilizers down first, we thank you for your suggestions and thank you for commenting
Great video. I just bought a used rv and plan to take it out this weekend for Father's Day. This helped alot as I never been around one before.

Thinking about getting a small RV and your video was very helpful. It gave me some insights as to what to expected. Thank you for making and posting this video.
Thank you very much we appreciate your comment, it's not bad setting it up I believe it takes us about 30 minutes total, let us know if you decide to get one again thank you and have a great day

Wonderful video. Great tips for setting up the camper. We just bought our camper in the winter. And now we can't wait to use it Come summer. I wrote down your steps.Do you setting up the r v. Our trailer is very similar to yours. This will go a long way to reducing angst. During that first setup. Thank you for making this video!
I bet you summer is gonna take its time getting here seems how you have a new RV LOL, we did the same thing as you we watch several videos on setting up and it does help just remember to take your time and don't worry about what other people are doing, we appreciate you commenting
Thants for the tip. We always stay tipped on one side, but now with your help not anymore
We're glad we could help and you enjoyed the video we really appreciate you commenting have fun and stay safe my friend
Great video. We like to check and make sure the electrical and water work before disconnecting. If they dont you may have to move to another site.
That's a great idea LifeIsAJourney4Us, I would hate to have it almost all set up and have to move my site, that's what I love about the TH-cam community people putting in their inputs and giving some great advice like yourself, thanks for the advice and commenting
Thank you for very detailed video I’m about to purchase my 1st Rv this made me more anxious
Congratulations on your soon to be new RV, don't worry about the setup once you've done it once or twice you'll become pros good luck and let us know how it works out
This video was great. Thank you for this. I am now a subscriber.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge
You are very welcome, and we thank you for commenting
Thanks, I’m new in my Rv and is the best video for me.
First welcome to RVing javierantoniocruz2852, I can relate to what you're saying watching videos was the best for us also when we first started out, good luck my friend and have fun
I’ve been using the same 1995 terry 30’ travel trailer. Yet I still found value in your video. Thanks
What I meant was we bought it new in 1995 and still care for it and use it today!
Wow davidhillman3410, I think that has to be one of the best compliments I've had, we thank you so much for your comment, and we hope you have a great day
Thanks for the video guys absolutely loved it and informative. Me and the wife are looking into one so I’m soaking in some knowledge before hand. Plus we have the same truck! I think it’s a sign hahaha much love.
Well if you have the same truck as us then it is a good sign, I like that you are soaking in the knowledge before purchasing an RV, when you get one you are gonna absolutely love it both you and the wife, I know rose loves ours, you have to let us know when you get one we're getting excited for you, thank you for watching and commenting and we hope to see you next time
Waiting until after setup before having cold beer leads me to believe that I have 0 self control. I usually crack one as soon as the truck is parked 😂
See now that's what I'm saying cracking 1 open after you put the truck in park, unfortunately rose has a different idea do the setup first then I'm allowed to have a beer LOL, and since rose has the majority of the common sense in this household I guess I will just have to do it her way LOL, I do appreciate you commenting and I will show rose that I'm not the only one that believes beer comes first 😀
Hey, as long as it’s in park and you’re done driving
for the night. Crack one open whenever you need to.😂 some of us think clearer after a few sips
Thank you for showing us how to set up camp.
You are very welcome, when we first started out we have never set up an RV before and it was one of our biggest worries, so we are glad we can pay it forward, it's actually very easy when you get into a routine, have fun out there and thank you for commenting
great informative video. straight to the point.
Thank you water_feind9152, glad you enjoyed it and thank you for commenting
Thank you for the helpful info. We are excited to go on our first RV trip to the redwood forest this summer 2024
We're glad you found the video useful, and wow first RV trip to the redwood forest that sounds like it'll be a lot of fun, let us know how your trip goes and thank you for commenting
Will do, Leaving in 2 days. Any advice on trip planning before we hit the road? Thanks again
Good job. Job completed ,, ,! Fun time !
Then fun time it is
Great video , only one critic-by my experience…. Check water and power BEFORE. Doing such a great full set up…. Nothing sucks more than “practicing” for your next spot.
You are absolutely right and we appreciate you giving such great advice, and we wanna thank you for being a subscriber looking forward to talking to you next time have a great day have fun camping
Awesome video, very informative. Thank you
Thank you, hope it helps you out and have fun out there
Thank you for this, very useful and helpful information!
We're glad you found it helpful, we all have to start out sometime and I know the setup made me nervous for the first time, good luck and thank you very much for commenting

thank you very much.
from North of the MEDICINE LINE, B.C. Canada
Wow that has to be the best compliment we have gotten on this video specially coming from a know it all LOL, we love British Columbia I stayed there for six months in Whistler and black hole mountains loved every minute of it, we appreciate and thank you for commenting and hopefully we'll see you next time
The only thing I would add… here in Oklahoma… you had best use a pressure regulator on your water at the hydrant… other than that… good job!!!
I agree like I mentioned in the video I had left my pressure regulator at the previous campsite, but you are absolutely right and we thank you for commenting have a great day
@@RVFieldTrip sorry, must have missed that part of your video…. It’s all good
@@davidwilliams-qm2lm you don't have to apologize cause you're right we all need to have one, I appreciate your comments
Thank you for this great information!! ❤️
you are very welcome and we thank you for commenting
Great video. You have a system as do i and that’s a good thing. But I gotta say, the bars? It doesn’t matter what side you use them on. Mine get mixed up all the time. They’re identical. Not left/right specific.
1st we like to thank you TFordF150 for being a subscriber, also we're glad you liked the video, to the comment about the bars I know you're right even rose says it's only my OCD getting the better of me she even gets a giggle every time I make sure to put them on the same spot LOL, but I guess you can say it's part of my system LOL, TFordF150 we thank you for commenting and hope to see you soon
Hahaha. I hear ya! You keep doing what works for you! 👍
This was great because we are buying or first camper!.
Thank you Ben, let us know what kind you're buying and congratulations
@@RVFieldTrip we bought a Winnebago Minni. It’s about 27’ dry weight at about 5020lbs. About 5500 filled. I have pulled trailers before for work but it was a carpet cleaning unit and completely different than pulling an rv I’m sure. It’s got a pop out as well for a smaller rv it has a ton of room.
@@benspoliticsandnewsbencook9151 congratulations on your Winnebago, I don't know if you pulled an trailer that size before if you haven't then I suggest watching a video on tail swings, otherwise it will be practically the same as what you're used to, I hope you guys enjoy it as much as we have and let us know the first time you take it out, good luck my friend
@@RVFieldTrip I will watch that video as well then. Just because it’s been a while. I have pulled a 30’ but it was a flat bed and we used to haul restaurant equipment on it. Reach in refrigerators stoves all that professional kitchen appliances and stuff like that.
@@benspoliticsandnewsbencook9151 well let us know how your first time out goes, I bet you guys will have a lot of fun looking forward to your progress
Good info, thanks! Getting rid of my tailgate on the truck when I get my trailer 😂. My memory is bad.
We are glad you liked the information in the video, why are you getting rid of the tailgate on your truck, I doubt your memory is getting that bad we've all lost our mind in one way shape or form LOL
