new owner

Hello, all! We are the new owners of a 2016 Zinger ZT32SB. We purchased the TT at an RV show in January 2016, and did our walk-through in late-January 2016. The dealer held/stored our TT until late-April when we picked it up and brought it home. Since bringing it home, we have been fortunate...

Hi, new trailer owner here. We just purchased a Jay feather 7 19XUD. Been out a few times and made the usual mistakes (blown battery fuses etc). We are now thinking about getting a generator so we can broaden our camping to places without hookups. Ideally, we would like to run AC (1 baby and 1...

Just bought this used 2014 unit and took it out for our first trip. This is all new to my family as this is our first RV. But after 2 nights we're loving everything about this set up for a family of 4. We still need to run the gas system to check it all out. I'm still trying to get the best...

My husband and I just bought a 2016 GD Solitude 379FL to be delivered and placed on 5/31/16. We will be parking it next to the home we rent. Over the next 3-4 months, we will be moving over what will go in it and work on selling, donating or tossing the rest. We kind of put the cart before the...

After years of wishing and searching, I finally pulled the trigger and just purchased yesterday 30BH. I thought these trailers were to be independently inspected? As I set up my chocks I noticed the wiring pinched between the frame and body. Right below the gas lines to the fridge and stove. I...

We are retiring next year. Preparing to purchase a Jayco 23MRB. Retirement is in July so we thought we should purchase early and do a few weekend outings to prepare for our 3 - 4 week trips we are planning to take. Have spent weeks viewing YouTube video's about tow weight, check lists, etc...

So my wife and I are not new to camping, growing up in tents and the occasional RV. We have tented it though for the last 20 years now and we had the luxury of staying in a friends RV. It turns out we are no longer tent people... With that said, we have looked at hundreds of RVs all over the...

About to purchase a new to me 2012 Zinger 26bh. Appreciate any input ASAP. I previously owned another brand (FR BH)so I am familiar with most systems. My question: looking at the CR website 2016 model Zingers boasts a very nice aluminum cage construction, using 5/8 plywood floor, R7 batt...

Hello to my new GD friends (and those of you considering). Just took delivery on my new 350M. I understand the PDI typically lasts about an hour or so. We spent over 5 hours trying hard to find something in need of dealer attention. Salesman commented that he could not believe after 5 hrs of...

Just purchased our first travel trailer tonight. 2016 287BHSW. Can't wait for them to prep it for pick up Monday. Already found lots of useful info here. Since our last RV was a year older than me. Lol. A 1973 Dodge chassis handed down to me by my Grandfather. I have a lot to learn.

Just picked up a pre-owned, never slept in, showered, or used the bathroom. New smell and all. Very impressed with it so far. However, first thing I had to do was clean all the grease out of the brakes as they were over greased at some point. Drums, shoes, magnet were thoroughly coated in...

Hello hello, My family and I reside in SW Wisconsin and purchased a 2015 Jayco 1207 about a year ago. I ended up looking for a forum today as we've had a few bugs to work out with the new fangled electric raise/lower feature that replaced the good ol' reliable hand crack version. I'm...

Hello All, Just purchased a 1998 20' Funmaker. Was in relatively good shape. Taking it out on a maiden voyage in 2 weeks (only an hour away with friends). Looks like this forum will help me a bunch. Thanks in advance for answering my questions. Kyle

Hey all, I am researching toy haulers and the 385TH is one of our finalists. It seams that the GD toy haulers are of higher quality than others. Are there any owners that would care to share their thoughts? We are also looking at the voltage v4000, among a few others. Any education you could...

After 30+ years of tent camping we have purchased a Jayco camper trailer and "love it". We have camped three places the past two weeks and have really enjoyed the experience. We are looking forward to many adventures as we are about a year from retirement. We are both in the education field...

Greetings! Traded our 33 foot Class A, and planning to pick up our new toy in a couple of weeks. Over the years, have had a Class C, a 33 foot travel trailer, and a big fifth wheel with a dsl truck. Each one fit the purpose for a few seasons. Now we are downsizing, or is the PC term rightsizing...

Hi, I am a new owner. I would like to say I love our new motor home, but it is to early to say. I am unsatisfied that there is no way to turn off the residential refrigerator other than turn off the inverter. In addition there is no way to access the water line to the ice maker other than...

I started following this board 3 years ago when I first toured a Redwood. I knew then that I wanted one, just had to wait for our life to catch up. Hubble ordered his new truck in February, got the call mid-March it would be ready in a week, found a good deal on a gently used 2012 36RL that same...

Just upgraded to a 2006 Jayco Jayflight 29BHS from a pop up camper and now have a long winter of coming up with projects on our new camper. I am pulling this with our new truck, 2014 V8 Silverado Crew Cab (we bought some expensive toys this past November). I am new here and enjoy these forums...

recently purchased a Jayco X18D. Love it, but want to make some upgrades and modifications. Can anyone give me any recommendations on where I can go In NJ to have the modifications done? Would appreciate any advice anyone can offer. Thanks much.

Hello, brand new members and introducing ourselves. We're Robert and Yolanda from San Antonio Texas, and we just put a deposit down on a 2015 Escape 17B. I've been searching all sorts of threads on the forum, and I want to say thank you for all the great information and tips! We have not yet...

:) Well after kind answers to my previous posts, my wife and I are now owners of a new Reflection 303 RLS. We bought the 5th wheel last week from Coachlight RV and are having them add Black Slide Toppers and Fantastic Fans before we pick it up the first week of June. In the meantime, we...

We are getting ready to buy our first Voltage TH and have it narrowed down to either the 3200 or 3600 and would appreciate some feedback from you pros ! We had pretty much decided on the 3200 but then looked at the 3600 and love the extra room. We live in the Northwest so most trips for now...

I went in today, and put a deposit on an Escape 19 :D Not sure I can wait until November to get the trailer. I'm giddy like a little kid.;D Oh yeah, my name is Brandon by the way, see giddy;)

Hi, I've been reviewing the four brands of fiberglass "eggs" on line for a while and have figured out that the Escape seems to fit me and my wife best. I have never seen one in person. I live in Western North Carolina which is a long way from the factory but very close to Townsend, TN. Is anyone...
