Just purchased our first travel trailer and should be picking it up this week (Thursday).
I’ve been doing a lot of reading and online information seeking to get as familiar as I can before easing our way into setting up at a campsite. It’s an R pod 192. Tried to stay small and no slide out was our main goal. I know the quality of these trailers may not be the best but we plan on doing our due diligence on upgrades and preventative maint on known issues with cheaper trailers.
Ordered heating blanket install for tanks, small sway control bar and brake controller for the Durango were the only add ons we did.
Not planning on doing super cold use but will likely be out in sub 32 nights from time to time.
Looking for any tips for a newbie on anything you veterans or other newbies can offer up.
I plan on heat tracing the sewage drain lines and valves sometime since they are below the belly enclosure.
Again not looking to be out in major cold weather since this is not a four season trailer but will be looking into sealing and possibly insulating the belly at some point.
We looked at soooo many trailers and actually came back to this one which was our first pick on our first day out. Almost went with a Grand design MK17 after seeing someone mentioning the Grand design brand on here.
They are super nice on the inside. Just ended up being a little too wide and a little heavier than I wanted to go on my first trailer.
Thanks in advance.
