First time travel trailer owner

So this year the place we normal rent a travel trailer and stay had nothing open. so we decided this was the year to buy one. We have a jeep wrangler unlimited with the max tow package so we where limited in the size we could get. After looking around and talking we ended up picking a 19BH | 2017 JAY FEATHER 7.
It will be tight fit with a family of 4 but it was what we could pull.
We pick it up next Thursday and our first trip is not unlit July have time to get use to it and set it up. I got to poke around the forum i'm sure there a ton of information that will be helpful with what I need and and what will make life easier on me and stuff that is just not needed.
Our plan the first few trips is to stay at places with full hook-ups so any and all advice would be great or if there is a tread that has all the most helpful information for a new travel trailer owner point me in that direction. thanks
jeff

Congratulations and welcome!

We camp with another family with 2 kids and they fit just fine in similar unit. It just depends on your expectations and how much time you spend inside.

Enjoy!

Be sure to check your payload specs on the wrangler. With a family of 4 and the 19' TT, you could be close.
Congrautlations on the new purchase.
Keep it between the lines :-)
