Hello. I'm not new to RVs but new to Forest River products. Have upgraded to lifepo4 and have some solar. Interested in more info in that area. Had a couple toy haulers but they are a waste of space now that we have a young child. We do some camp grounds but mostly local boondocking with dirt bikes

Hey all, I'm Paul. I'm brand new to this forum and brand new to RVing. I bought a 2021 MiniLite and it's perfect for us. We've been off the grid a fair share, but like the trailer with full hookups as well. I'm Cali born and raised and ride mountain bikes, shoot firearms and archery, fish...

Hi my name is Koury, first time travel trailer owner and liked some of the conversations I’ve read so far on this site. My wife and I just bought a 2022 wolf pup 17jg. Within a month we are going to be taking it out twice and already looking to upgrade the batteries and solar for better camping...

I'm going to Couchs RV to pick up my trailer and drive it back to California, what is the easiest route to pull a trailer while not sight seeing we are just bringing it home there will be time to sight see later. I-80 looks like the fastest but I-40 is straighter, now I will be doing this in...

Just purchased a 2020 Cherokee Grey Wolf 26DBH and super excited to get out and use it!

Hello All, This is my first post on this forum, I know another newbie. Well, we got our 2021 GeoPro 19FD back in May and just love it. Took it for a maiden voyage to Wawona campground in Yosemite this past weekend. Learned a lot like needing more solar panels and better batteries (dealer...

Hi everyone! I'm a new owner of a 2022 Wolf Pup 16BHS. I'm waiting for delivery and can't wait to start RV camping with my family, and take my meat smoking skills on the road. I'll be towing with a 2021 Honda Ridgeline with a Anderson No-Sway, Weight Distribution Hitch. Can't wait to make...

Excited to belong and to learn much about our 2021 Flagstaff SE!!

Hello everyone, My wife and I are taking a trip out west this September and are looking to go to Arizona and then on to California. I was wondering from Arizona the best route to take to get to the San Jose area in California. Wanting to avoid steep grades if possible.

We're heading out to California in a couple of weeks for my Grandmother's 100th birthday. We'll be staying at Hesperia Lakes for the weekend, but according to their website, they do not have a dump station on premises. Chatting with an employee at a local RV dealership, it seems that's not...

After a late September, early October trip from Oregon to the Bay Area I am thinking of driving California Highway 1 from Bodega Bay to Highway 101 (Leggett). I have driven 1 in a car several times and once in a 24 foot Class A not towing. This trip would be in our 24 foot Class C towing our...

Hello all, We just brought home our brand new MiniLite 2509S! Definitely an upgrade from our last trailer, which we loved, but needed something a bit larger. So far I am very impressed. What comes Standard on this trailer blows me away! Our least trailer was also a Forest River (Wildwood)...

Hello all, We just bought our first RV, and are looking forward to getting used to it in what I like to call "Pretirement." I did a lot of tent and tent trailer camping, but that was a number of years ago. We're looking forward to what we think will be the relative ease of a travel trailer...

On our pre-planning stage for the beginning of November. One route we are looking at takes us from Julian CA to Escondido via CA 78. We are in a 36 ft Class A towing a toad. Is this route suitable for that size rig? Or do we take the longer route? Thanks

I poked around the forum and figured a fresh thread post COVID lockdown may be the best for this topic. I just got my Non Commercial Class A license in California because the >15k pound GVWR 5th wheel. There were TWO competent DMV employees in this subject at the Santa Theresa DMV. I can state...

Been lurking a long time, finally joined. Used to be quite a forum rat but this is the first forum I've signed up for in years. Recently purchased a brand new Rockwood Mini-Lite 2509s. Previous unit was a WW SL3005 5er. Never was quite happy with that trailer and had even reverted back to tent...

I would like to make another trip out to California. Last time I did it I took I-40, but this time my wife wants to take the I-10 route, I have and read terrible story’s on the road conditions of I-10. Is it all bad and you need a kidney belt or is it just areas? Can you by-pass the bad areas...

Howdy, We've been cooped up and isolating in Reno all winter. There's a school break coming in March, this is usually a time for us to take a family trip somewhere warm and tropical. Given the the current state of things, I'm trying to hit a few places in California where we can enjoy decent...

My wife and I are full timers since October of 2018. We typically winter in Lake Havasu, AZ and summer in Central and Eastern Washington. In the fall and early winter, we travel and do volunteer work. We have replicated that pattern for nine years at first in an old C and in our Cardinal...

Going to be a new Rockwood family member. Putting the down payment on a new Rockwood 2608 this morning. Ordering with all of the options I think we will need. So to all of the 2608 owners is there anything you wish you would have ordered or not ordered? All comments welcome Thanks and...

I was just wondering. I live in california and we do not have snow, maybe some rain here and there in the winter. Do I need to drain out my water and put antifreeze in there? or is it not necessary? Please advise.. thank you

Hello all! Used RV's are hard to find here in CA. The RV I am looking at is even harder to find - Apex Nano 193BHS and Catalina Summit 184BHS. Any suggestions on how to get an RV from Nebraska to CA - the fastest and the cheapest? I can drive to NE, but thats 4 days on the road. I can fly...

My husband and I have just purchased a 2021 Forester MBS motorhome and 2021 Jeep Wrangler. Married 48 years, we're long time 5th wheelers and decided to make a change into a motorhome. Looking forward to new adventures and hopefully seeing you on the road. Lloyd & Libby Linton

Hello RVers, I am thrilled to join the forum and learn from all you beautiful people. I am new to RVing. I got a 2021 Forest River Ibex 19MBH travel trailer, paired with 2020 Ram 1500. I lived in California but purchased my RV in Texas when we traveled to visit a family last December. Looking...

:campfire: I live just outside of Yosemite's south Wawona gate, in Coarsegold, CA. Having been recently widowed I have many questions now, how do I fix this or that, now that hubby is gone. Sounds pathetic I know but it's the situation I find myself in. SO, please forgive me if I ask the...
