New owner of a 22fb

Im taking out my 2014 22FB for the first time next weekend. Any suggestions for a new RV owner? I have owned a pop up before but this is my first travel trailer.

Congrats on your purchase and welcome to JOF!

I would strongly consider a camp driveway for one night to try all of the features out and ensure you have everything you need.

Thanks Heady. I plan on dong that this weekend. I purchased my camper in the end of February and have been setting it up since. Our first trip is not to far from home just in case I needed something.

Congrats! We've had ours for a few years and love it. I hope you will too. I don't know if they fixed the water loss problem on the FW tanks on earlier 22fb models, but if not, there are threads on this forum that offer a quick and easy fix.

Have fun! Looks like we both bought our rigs around the same time. I also graduated from a PUP. Just keep a notepad handy and have fun!
This weekend I had my 2nd outing and had some challenges (i.e. memory problems) on the WDH sway bars and the awning, but I persisted and overcame!

Thanks everyone the wife and I are looking forward to our first time out with the new camper next weekend. Looks like the weather might even be near 60.

Seaswirl we got ours in February at a RV show. We have been playing with it since. I'm ready to take it out and use it. Its going to be a lot better then the tent camping we have been doing the last couple of years.
