I’m seasoned and guilty leaving the awning out… I went 30 min away to visit my brother and could SEE a storm in the distance and my family in town by my RV started texting me because there was a tornado near my rig! Shockingly, my awning was fine… the whole campground was seemingly untouched

We have cooked for 40 people off a 16" square steel plate with embers under it on a 12 gallon drum cut in half, no dramas. I cant wait to get the baby Q out the box, just hope it burns hot enough. Not sure about gas. I seen some great big flash ones that couldnt sizzle spit. The meat just stews on them.😂

I’m a newbie doing research. I swear I just heard a guy who works for a manufacturer reiterate your point about not hooking up to water full time because it can damage the water systems too? Either way, thanks for the tips!
@CampBrood
@CampBrood 25 күн бұрын
Yes, without a pressure regulator you can blow out fittings if the campground pressure is too high. We use the pressure regulator that I put in the video description and have never damaged our water system. But, If you have ever let a hose run for any length of time you can see how many gallons that could produce. We were at Zion Canyon RV Resort in Springdale Utah and a fitting came loose on our plumbing. I think it was just due to traveling on bumpy roads. We were disconnected from the campsite hookup but I left the water pump on. The fitting opened up which caused a loss of pressure and the water pump ran all night. In the morning, I woke up to a weird humming sound, went outside and the pump was on and my tank was empty, with a puddle on the ground quickly drying in the UTAH red dirt. But, at least the fitting was in the outside storage bay and not in the bathroom or kitchen. we got off easy. So, I would also recommend turning off your water pump when you leave the RV for any length of time and overnight. But, if we were hooked up to the campsite and had the fitting loose in the RV the water damage to the particle board subfloor, cabinets, etc would have been permanent and massive with unlimited water flowing until morning. Thanks for the comment!

I’ll tell you the one thing I do I watch the weather always watch the weather when you know things are going in and out and flying around. That’s one thing I do watch whenever the weather is windy. I don’t leave my awning out and you can strap it down, but I would never leave it out during your windstorm. I’ve seen many tore off, literally tore off while someone’s camping with that and then where the hell my thing go left off because that’s a very big fix. I’m thinking that we’re gonna be a $900 fix with parts and labor not if you don’t have that money. why do you have CamperTravel fifth wheel motorhome things happen expect the unexpected

People who put a water hose elbow in a place that does no good at all. It's supposed to go into the connector on your rig so the hose can come straight up from the ground and not make a 90' bend to go into the wall of your rig. Water order starting at the faucet: Pressure regulator> filter> hose> elbow> rig. All that being said, I was in a site recently that the filter was so close to the ground I had to put the elbow on it..... Just do your best!

Interesting video... However, it seems to be all about parking. You have to drive them first, and there are also many signs of being a beginner there. As someone who has worked in a lot of National Parks and seen thousands of RVs over the course of about 50 years, I tend to believe that all RV owners are in the "Inexperienced" category. The reason being more than 95% of RVers I've talked to don't drive their RVs more than two to three weeks a year. Adding to that, they have bad "traveling by car" driving habits that can be very dangerous for RVs in heavy traffic areas such as Yellowstone or any other large NP where there is a lot of wildlife, such as stopping unexpectedly when they see animals. For that reason I always recommend that people driving keep their distance and never follow RVs too closely. You may need to stop very quickly, and if you follow them too close, you may end up in the RV's bedroom. In the end, the only people that I consider to be "experienced" RV drivers are the professionals. Such as the people who drive the RV's for race car drivers, bands on tour, drivers of city or cross country busses who are on vacation (RV's are typically smaller than a city or Greyhound bus), etc. Even though they are professional drivers, that doesn't mean they never make mistakes. But they are experienced, which puts them into that 5% that remains of all RV drivers. Unless someone drives an RV every day, and there some people who do, they are still not the best vehicles to follow. Keep your distance! I try to allow at least two lengths of the vehicle in front of me for emergency braking...

I have been RV'ing since the 60's and I still act like a beginner. I went to bed one night and forgot to take inthe awning and almost lost it, got up and took it in while in my skivvies, never again. I also was dumping my tanks in Yuma one year and forgot to close them. fortunately we had a bathroom in a small building at the lot we were staying in so we dumped two bottles of digestor into th eholding tank and let it set for a few days. we got it cleaned out but never did that again. I've done other stupid things but nothing to damage my rig. I just get forgetful at times

Well, I admit it I am a rank amateur. I've never really gone to an RV place to camp. I've been watching a lot of videos, and this one did share some good things with me about lifting the wheels off the ground, and I've often thought of warping the frame. And the very first thing I got Was a surge protector because I saw where somebody had a brand new vehicle that literally got its electrical circuits fried. And I didn't go cheap either. I went expensive because of the features. So these kind of videos are very informative and those who make fun of people that don't know what they're doing. Let me share something with you. I'm a pilot And we had a guy who at the airport I'm rebuilding an airplane at refused to take training offered by a 4000+ hour islet. And his expression was "I'm a real pilot." Well, this fool decided that he knew better than everyone else, and promptly took off, handle the aircraft incorrectly and crashed and nearly died.his ego and arrogance got in the way. I will not let that happen to me and honestly I've really never let it do that.
