Welcome to the forum and the Rv living. I wish I would have gone with a bunkhouse for the grandkids. Didn’t completely think that through.

Enjoy making great memories and find the “zen” when the not so great pops up here and there.

Welcome from Maryland

Enjoy the RV life. We owned the same trailer until we up sized. The 174BH is great trailer.

NJ Fiddlers, Hi from Florida

My advice is to relax into it. Start with local trips and “learn your rig”. I read Jayne Freeman’s book, “The Complete RV Handbook” three times before I bought. It’s on Amazon...

Welcome!

We are semi-retired with business that is travel friendly and 2 grands. We’ve traveled with our oldest forever. When we camp, he now likes having his own tent. We have a Jay Flight Baja RD - turned it into a lounge area since we eat outside.

Hello, New RV'ers. We started with our 2016 REKS29 White Hawk TT in 2015. We bought it New with the 2 yr. Warranty. I now have the extended Service on all the appliances. We live in Lakewood, Washington State, lots of Mountain Passes and hills to negotiate. I'm a retired long haul Tractor-Trailer Driver, but I still remember the first time I backed a trailer, "sweat and white knuckles"! I always try to lend a hand to anyone who's having a hard time backing their trailer. When you camp or "Glamp" always try to get to know the folks around you. Always have a check-list to pre-trip TT and Tow Vehicle, incuding all lights. There are many "Do's and Don'ts on U-Tube". Good Info source. Carole and I Welcome you to RVing. Stay Safe.

Thanks, I've done pop-up backing, but still have to learn the trailer.

Welcome & Enjoy.

I have a 2020 SLX7 195RB so we have same series except for Bunk Beds. I love my TT and enjoy all the amenities. I even had dealer install a Smart TV on the wall by the queen bed.

Our honeymoon was in NH...a gift of a cabin on a lake (about 1/4 of the way up the staqte, right in the middle). That was back in 1982. No running water, but we didn't care a whit!
