By the way, the zip file is a part of the Training Orientation course that this video came from, available at www.rvmasters.com!

Been RV'ing for 24 years and this is the best information I have EVER seen!

A better idea for Step one: DO NOT buy the accessories at the dealer. Order them to save a LOT of money.

How can you not smile and get excited about an rv watching this guy? Great videos thank you for the info

Could have called customers stupid idiots and unrealistic but you didn't. Your restraint is appreciated. And anyone who has worked in sales or service with general public knows there are plenty of face palm stories behind those endless smiles. Subscribed!

My wife and I are looking at getting a new trailer. This will be our first time owning one. Thanks for the video

Just finished his Class A class - invaluable. Buy it. He was calming, informative, and it was well worth the investment. I CAN'T WAIT to pick up my motorhome!!!!! Seriously. Can. Not. WAIT. Thank you, Mr David.

Man you’re great at explaining things. I’m a new full timer with a 2018 keystone Springdale. This video is so helpful. Thanks!

This video is very informative for the First time buyers, a simple checklist that people forget on a walk through when purchasing an R.V. ( not a House, boat or car/truck)

before you turn on the propane outside make sure your cooktop burners(if so equipped) are off, open a window or vent and make sure the propane detector is plugged in and tested.

This guy's ok! He's hilarious! Also sound and substantial advice.

Man you ought to be very proud of the fantastic job you did on this video!!!!!!!!!

My husband and I are about to buy our first camp trailer! Woohoo! And I have been watching your videos! Thank you!! We are both young and we don't know how to care for a travel trailer so we are researching as much as possible before buying. THANK YOU FOR ALL OF YOUR VIDEOS! You have 2 new fans of your channel! Thank you again! -Rebecca

Excellent video, thanks for caring and sharing. Appreciate your sincerity. Keep em coming. God Bless you and your family, happy and safe RVing 🙏

I noticed the “Wilkins RV, Bath, NY” sticker on the back of the RV, lol. Our daughter used to work for them back when they were still located in Hornell, NY, and lived next door to Mr. and Mrs. Wilkins which was right up the street. Too funny 😄

BTW...you are a real pleasure to listen to...and full of great tips :)

I found this video to be very helpful. I plan on purchasing my very first travel trailer this coming spring of 2019. So I’m trying turn learn as much as I can prior to my purchase. I shall refer back to this video following my purchase.

This is great! My husband and I are looking at taking the dive. This video has made me feel so much more confident that I can do this!! Love your enthusiasm and the fact that it’s coming from an experienced RV’er is great!! Thank you so much

Driveway camp! Cannot stress it enough. Use everything before you camp for real. Don't get 100-200 miles away from home and find out something doesn't work... Or find out you don't know how to use it. Check those seals. All the time. Found two cracks this past weekend. We always carry sealant, RV tape, etc with us.

My dealer was awesome. We did a PDI together with everything. We tested the air-conditioner, heater and the generator

I agree that these are good tips. I also agree that they should be done before you leave the dealer. This way if you do run into a problem or just have a question about something on whatever list you use, help should be readily available and you will save time and the aggravation of having to pull the trailer bat to the dealer for any questions or repairs.

I like the passion you have for informing rev owners so thank you so much!

When i bought my coach (1 year old) from a dealer, this is what i did. We hammered out a deal and right before signing, i told them i had hired a guy to come and do a PDI. They weren't a fan of me doing this at all!!! This took 25 minutes just for me to be schooled by the dealer they they would inspect it....lol But i didn't care about what they were going to do and ultimately was either willing to walk or just sign my original deal. Bottom line, after the PDI was completed (on the dealers lot by a professional i had hired) I was able to negotiate another $11k off our previous negotiated deal to cover the repairs!

Great tips! Thanks for making this informative series!

Love your series. Very very good, complete and slow.

wonderful demo....all new RV folks should have watch this

You,Sir, are truly a master of your craft! Your chanel name was aptly selected!

Really good info for us beginners. We are purchasing our first RV this June and I found this an amazing source of information. Sad that know-it-alls think this video is not very good.

Thank you! I need to go check my seals now, bye!

I have to say i got more information from you than anyone else on KZfaq. Thank you . I will be buying my first travel trailer in may.

I like the sleep in it step. Just purchased a used 14ft for a specific use. Think sleeping in it and preparing food will reveal some things I need.

David, thank you for this video. Excellent source of info!

These are excellent starter steps, each of these should be performed before leaving the dealership. And whatever you do, Never, Never fire up your water heater until you are sure it is full of water Also do a walk thru of your unit before you start any of these steps Ensure the gas knobs are in the off position before starting any of these steps

You are so AWESOME! CHECK YOUR SEALS.. CHECK YOUR SEALS... CHECK YOUR SEALS... YESSSS!!! Thank you for this information. Wow!!!

I'd want to try most of these tests BEFORE I leave the dealer !!

I love this video the most out of the series because of the “Check you Seals!”

I know these are great things to do when you get your new toy home, but some of these things should be done at the dealership in case something goes wrong! Turn on the gas and check for leaks while you are there! Doing a full "walk around" before you leave would be a good idea, even if you can't do it all, such as water. My favorite power testing tool is a drill motor. The best advice are getting a surge protector, checking the seals (check the seals, check the seals, check the seals........) and Sleep In It!!!

Great video! Thanks for creating this, spot on for every point, well done!

Going to pick up this weekend excellent info

I don't have an RV yet but I am going to my car outside right now and check the seals. Hold and behold, after 6 years..I got a broken seal. I subscribed immediately.

Thank you !!! and people ..... he did say, that "this will all be done at your dealer as well," but to check once you are home several times.... .... in the video, thanks again..... very informative.....

You're awesome and a pleasure to listen to...oh and did i mention very good information. Thanks :)

You and your channel are awesome. Newbie here prepping 😁

Do not leave the dealer without doing all these things there. It is their responsibility to make sure your new camper is camping ready.

I would like to thank u for this video . It's very helpful. I have my camper at my house and it's my getaway . And we use it camping also

Great tips and sense of humor

Great information and well presented. Thank you !!

Purchasing my first camper next April, 2020 ,I know nothing about them it's like a pre retirement vacation relaxation, and I know nothing about them I do know it's going to be pre owned, so I'm getting help and instruction from watching videos, thank you so much your like a kid in a candy shop your know your job well, it was fun watching you

Very informative, one of the best RV videos I’ve watched.

Thanks for your excellent videos!

Great video., Thank you for posting. Learned a lot from it and will use as a guide to owning a travel trailer......thanks again

Really I can not thank you enough for making these videos I’m now getting ready to buy one! Sorry I live to far from you to buy at your location!

Check to see that the water connections are hand tight under all fixtures. Every t8me for a year. They loosen up. Dripping water. Mdf cabinets hate water.

Thank you. Its very informative!

Very helpful, thank you!

Thanks for the advice. Appreciated.

Awesome info , Thank you !

Great tips. Thanks you Very Much !!!

That was a very awesome video. Thank you

Thanks so much, that was a great video.

Great Video. To go from Newbie to competent RV'er will take some time and effort. But as they say, Enjoy the Ride....

I bought my first RV about 25 years ago, I wish I had seen a video like this back then.

Love you video! We’re about to buy our 1st RV. This was very helpfull.

Thanks . Making my list .

GREAT video!!! Thanks!! I'll make it our new pre check!!!! Alot easier to fix at home than on the ROAD

Very easy to follow. Thanks!

Thank you for making this video! Love it and please check your seals!!!

Check your seals LOL. Best advise to share as very few RV's do not have water issues and the ones that do not show water issues "probably have water issues". I have owned a campground for 20 years and have seen hundreds of RV owners that never even washed their RV, never ever cleaned out the gutters, never ever treated or cleaned the roof and then traded it in or sold it for a hunting camp because it was rotten. RV's need maintenance, RV's need maintenance, RV's need maintenance, did I mention that RV's need maintenance? The old saying "a stitch in time saves nine" should be engraved on the fridge door.

Awesome! Very informative

Thank you. Great video! Thank you. I’m buying your training, but just bought a Jayco 25 and I’m broke. 😂😀👍🏾

Great content! Thanks for sharing.

Very informative video ~ thank you for sharing!

great video buddy!

I love it when folks say "hot water heater". It's just a water heater, nothing more. 😆

Very informative video, thxs. My favorite oart is "CHECK THE SEALS" , love it. 😜🤣😂

great video, thanks

Did you say check your seals? Lol love that one.

Excellent!!

LOVE IT ! ! !

THANK YOU for taking the time to post this video! I am a newbie and I'm looking on google and KZfaq for the correct advise that I need as I do not know anyone to help me with this

Nice explanation, even you want to learn basic electricity lesson. Great.

I actually advise testing the 12v powered items, the slides, the gas, the water lines, the A/C, all that stuff AT the dealership BEFORE you take the rig home. It’s a lot easier and better to just leave it there, if there’s a problem, than bring it back after you get it home. They want it off the lot. They’ll fix stuff quick to accomplish this. Not only that but the dealer should have tested ALL that stuff prior to releasing it to you. Yeah……right. 🤣😂

this video owns. good content!

This was great even four years later!

Very informative

excellant class

You should do this before you leave the dealers lot and don't cut them a check until you test most of these.

All good pointers but I'd want to do all of these things before I got home and before I signed on the dotted line.....

Perfect. Thank you.

CHECK YOUR SEALS! lol. I loved that part

awesome video. thanks!!!!!!! will definitely be subscribing

I wouldn’t leave the lot until I’d done all of this first (except the sleeping in it).

Thanks for the info

Love the enthusiasm, especially #15 - that's the excitement of buying one of these beasts! By the way, I checked my seals. :)

Very good, thank you.

Step number one; check to see if your state has any consumer protection similar to "lemon laws" and laws against arbritary agreements hidden in fine print. Once you sign on the dotted line, forget trying to get your money back, without great difficulty, if you are sold a lemon. We bought a Jayco 317 RLOK on August 31, 2018 and returned it to the dealer for a structural crack in the fiberglass panel near the pin box. The problem was approved for repair under warranty allowing for a "9" hour repair. The trailer was returned for repair on Sept 13, 2018 and remains on the dealers lot as of today Oct. 27, 2018. We sure are enjoying our Jayco 317 RLOK purchased from Boyer Trailer Sales, Erie PA. Tell Nick, we sent you.👍 Update 10/30/18..... All parts and materials at the dealer so Our "dream" RV is scheduled to enter a service bay on 10/31/18 and we should expect to pick it up in one to two weeks. Also, labor is now set at 12 manhours. um, takes 1 to 2 weeks to perform 12 man hours of labor??? Update Nov 7, 2018: 1 week has passed since our trailer was to enter a service bay to accomplish a 12 hour repair aaaaand, we have not heard if the repairs have been completed. Stay tuned. Update Nov 8, 2018: Brought our dream trailer home on the 7th. Repairs are fantastic. Much much better than original work from the factory. (Shame on Jayco for such shoddy work). My sincere thank you to the service dept at Boyers Trailer Sales, Erie PA. Though no fault of the service guys it took 7 weeks having our RV unusable for repairs requiring only 12 manhours of labor. All parts and materials were readily available as they were common to the construction of the trailer model and at best, would require 2 days shipping from Jayco to Boyers. Note to Nick Boyer, check your voice mail. I left you a message on Oct. 30 asking you to return my call. I'm still waiting Nick. Thanks again to the service dept at Boyers for doing such a nice repair. 👍 End of story.

Great video. Waiting for our first camper to be delivered.

U are really good!!! Thx!!

“Check your seals, check your seals, check your seals” 🤣

Thank you, Sir
