Idling Etiquette

If you own a motorhome, especially a diesel pusher you are required to start the engine to pressurize the air system. Many require the motor running to actuate slides and raise the leveling jacks or adjust the air leveling system.

One Mistake After Another

There’s a learning curve to RVing, as in most things. For full-time RVers the learning curve can be steep. Your rig is your primary dwelling. Once damaged you’re out a home and a vehicle until it’s fixed or replaced.

Because of this, we tend to publish cautionary tales – things we notice that could save you money and heartache. Please don’t confuse this with being critical or poking fun. Rest assured, we’ve made our fair share of mistakes along the way that probably left others shaking their heads too.

Dump Station Sewer Hose Placement

Heating A Wet Bay

With winter here and us still in the cold north country the protection of our coach’s water and sewer system is critical.  We don’t want to deal with broken pipes, hoses and tanks costing hundreds, if not thousands of dollars to repair.

Secure Your RV

There seems to be a sense of security among RVers: A belief that ALL of our fellow RVing neighbors are friendly and pose no threat to our person or property. Yes, in an perfect world that would be so, but in this imperfect world that’s not always the case.

How many times have you read on the RV and Camping forums or on social media pages about something stolen or someone’s rig being vandalized? I’m not saying that all of these cases involved a fellow RVer, but there a some who do.
