I'm in Salt Springs Florida. Up until this year , we never had much service ( ot in the boonies here). Verizon finally added some antennas to the local electric companies communication tower. I have several Canadian friends in the park but they all have Telus or whatever they use in canada...

My husband and I are empty nesters and are looking forward to being semi-retired and joining the RV world. We bought a used 2015 A-frame with the front cargo area for our ATV. We tow with a GMC Sierra and we have a hard top on the bed for our other ATV. Our two dogs (heelers) go every where we...

Hi Everyone, Since we live in sunny AZ haven't had opportunity to drive in snow. Well.. planning a trip to Williams, AZ in the end of a major storm for the area. How will our Sunseeker handle it? Sunny Sharon :confused:

Is there any harm in allowing snow to accumulate on an RV roof?

Have you had experience with snow on your slides? Here, in Portland, OR, we don't have enough snow to be informed! And we are newbies! Weatherman is telling us that we are going to get 2-3" this weekend. RV is sitting in our driveway with his slides extended. Should I button him up? He is a...

What depth of snow accumulation on the roof of FR MBS class C would you allow before you shovel it off? Medium water content.

Me and the Wife will be going to Florida for a couple of months. I have a couple of stops in between Detroit and Ft Myers. How early should I start packing. And I will not bringing water in the holding tanks. I know it will be cold. Just any suggestions. This is our first time

I have about 6 inches of snow on 5er roof . Is it better to climb up there and broom it off ,or just leave it be. How much snow can they handle on the roof? With my weight plus the weight of the snow might be to much

Well the day has finally arrived we are both feeling better and heading out in the morning on our way to the Rio Grande Valley. We were going to leave this past weekend but came down with a nasty bug around New Years. which set us back a few days. I did a thread on our trip last year while...

We have reservations for Fort Wilderness Jan 2020 and feeling like I want to check out other options. Cocoa Beach? Recommendations gratefully accepted for the area around there. Brother lives in Lakeland so we don’t want to be too far from there. Thanks, Charlie

Im heading to Flagstaff the day after Christmas and planning on camping off the grid at a local spot (popular with Class A people). The spot is on a solid hard packed road and within 1/2 mile of pavement. The forecast is PM snow showers on Friday & Saturday and again on New Years. I will be...

I have a 2016 Chevy Silverado regular cab, short bed 4X4 pickup. I found out that I can flat tow the pickup by putting the transfer case in neutral. I just had a Boss snowplow mounted on the truck so there is a substantial subframe for the plow mounted to the truck frame. Is it possible to...

Water is steadily dripping from the inside of my living room slider. It hasn’t rained or snowed in 24 hours. Presumably, there was ice somewhere that is just now melting. Any guesses where it is getting in? And, what I can do to stop it? Ever since I’ve owned this Grand Design (Momentum...

Winterized our REV 24CB a couple of weeks ago. Pulled the coach batteries per recommendation of local RV dealer service people, since we usually have 2-4 weeks of minus 10-25F degree weather each winter. However, my question is about snow on the roof. What does Forest River recommend as max...

Where and/or what campground in Texas would y'all recommend spending a few months this coming winter season at? We are hauling the 5er to Willis, TX this fall but would like to explore other parts of TX first of the year...Jan, Feb. Thanks for your help. Happy :us-flag-waving: Trails

It's been a long time since I towed a trailer in snow and that time wasn't by choice. How many here do it on a regular basis? I'm heading out to the Soutwest for at least a month and will be going through no less than 6 mountain passes and traveling along long stretches of Interstate noted for...

Weird to be talking "snowbird stuff" when the temp today is 95. DW and I are planning on spending this winter visiting family in TX and traveling the Southwest in TT. We cannot leave NE until the 1st or 2nd week in Nov. Questions are how late do y'all leave the Northeast and any words of wisdom...

On Sunday, got 30 inches of snow in WI. I have not been up to the camper, but someone told me there is ALOT of snow on mt 2017 Sierra roof. Anyone ever have a roof "issue" based on that much snow before? I am worried, for sure.

We are transitioning from a pup to a 2016 Roo 21SS. Bought it in February and going to go pick it up tomorrow in Little Falls, MN. Forecast is for rain/thunderstorms changing to snow with a weekend total for our area of 8-16" plus ice. Should be a fun trip. Our new-to-us was a rental unit for...

I have read about creating checklists for PDI, for winterizing and dewinterizing, but would like to see if any snowbirds have created a checklist for their brick and mortar homes that they use prior to heading out. When you are away for months, what's on your "to do" list? I realize will be...

My gal and I were on a spring break trip with our two granddaughters touring sites in Arizona. Out of Africa, Bearizona the Grand Canyon and points of interest in between.

We are planning to keep our 5th wheel on site in a campground in southern Florida but are concerned about the hot and humid climate. What is the best way to avoid common problems such as mold and mildew. Do I continue to run the air conditioner? I will leave the unit plugged into the electric...
