First time RV owner. First post. First camping trip.
Ok, so my wife just bought a 2020 Hummingbird 16MRB. We are driving 10 hours to Arkansas to pick it up as they are really hard to find right now. As soon as we pick it up, we will be using it for a week. This is our first camping trip!!
We have a lot to learn and we are extremely excited.
Just stopping in to say hello!!

That’s awesome. Enjoy the trip. Hopefully you have cooler weather than we do here in Texas.

Welcome aboard!
Enjoy it. Do not be surprised that things are not perfect. These are hand built.
Key thing, enjoy it.

Yeah, guessing that's why we had a hard time finding the model we wanted.

Taking a lot of tips from a pro camper friend of mine. I'm pretty handy, so I'm not too worried.
