Dewinterized two weeks ago. Took it out for a week last week over spring break. Took it to the dealer yesterday and left it. New one comes home Saturday!

Dewinterized and took our first trip of the year.

I forgot to unplug the shower hose over the winter, which means I ordered two new ones to replace the inside and outside showers. Our ac fan decided to die over the winter so I ordered a replacement. At least the rest of the trip went well and the kids had a great time.

Did mine a couple of weeks ago for our first trip. Have already had to turn the heat on a couple of nights since the temps have dropped so low.

Yes it seems we are getting our March weather here in April. It dropped to 26 here the other night.

Did de-winterize mine a week before Easter and used it for 8 days during Easter and a few nights it was 25F. It has an enclosed underbelly but I have camped in that temperature without a enclosed underbelly. I moved the low drain valves inside as they where under the TT before.
Lucky we could have a fire as there's now a fire ban. We had a full house 5 adults, one baby and 5 small dogs and one big one. But it was fun. So now I'm still remodeling and fixing odds and ends. Planning to use it during this winter in Alberta so probably have to make skirting before fall.

Was going to, but hard freeze coming this weekend in NC. I'll aim for next weekend. I'm itching to get my trailer out of my driveway!

Low to mid 40s this weekend, low of 25 tomorrow night. Snow forecast, but less than an inch and nothing sticking.

It was 70 in March. Where did THAT go?

Hopefully by the end of April .....

I had to do some work (trap a tray cat) in a local storage cave here in Kansas City and I was pretty surprised to see so many class A's, TTs and 5ers coming out of winter storage. Some happy campers are starting their season!

I'm really hoping today was the turning point though. Next weeks forecast looks pretty decent and I need to dewinterize this weekend or next since we're taking our first trip on the 21st.

Yet another Friday snow with mid teen morning temps. I was going into to head off to our seasonal site regardless until I saw the salt being spread - ugh. Supposed to hit the upper 50's by mid week so I hope to get back on schedule soon.

When is it sort of safe to dewinterize? Low temps going to the teens still Last frost date historically May 15. First Frost Sept.2

Has anyone dewinterized on the road? We might have to leave for the first two nights of a trip with antifreeze in the lines.

Picked mine up a couple weeks ago and they didn't re winterize it! Last night was down in the 20s so I was a bit worried. All looks good though
