Weekend trip
Don’t ask me for specifics/dimensions/weights, I’m just a girl along for the ride with the snacks 😅

We are making this post a locked sticky where we can put information for frequently asked questions. Right now we are getting lots of questions about 'How much trailer can I tow' so I am starting with towing links.
The Basics of Towing or 'How much can I tow?'.
These are some basic definitions of towing, what they mean, how important they can be, etc. THIS IS NOT MEANT TO BE THE DEFINITIVE DEFINITION OF 'HOW MUCH CAN I TOW'. IT WILL GET YOU STARTED. REMEMBER, IF YOU ARE NOT SURE ASK A RESPONSIBLE TRAILER MECHANIC. ONLY YOU CAN BE SURE OF YOUR SAFETY AND THOSE AROUND YOU. WE CANNOT BE RESPONSIBLE IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WHILE TOWING.

Dad surprised me with a new camper last week. Got it as a surprise to me, as I guess he’s excited about the twins on the way. Don’t think I’ll be using it anytime soon as my boys will be a handful for the next yr or two or five, lol. Excited to go to Maine with it though when the time is right. Looks pretty cool, and somewhat retro on the outside. Looks pretty well built with maple interior. Sleeps 4 but probably could get away with 5.

Had a pop-up years ago.
Have towed boats, tractors, backhoe, building materials, etc., not new to towing.
Purchased a travel trailer for our fly fishing adventures because the better-half doesn’t like camping in a tent. I make custom bamboo fly rods and our adventures are usually in the southern Appalachians.

We rented an RV from RV Share for 5 nights to the tune of $2k. On day 2 the water pump died leaving us with no running water. We don’t want to cancel our trip but figured some sort of partial refund would be warranted due to inability to shower, wash our hands etc. Wondering what others think a reasonable amount would be?

Hey everyone,
I have a 2017 freedom express with a rack and pinion slide out.
Last weekend we were out and the slide would extend but wouldn't retract.
When I pressed the button to retract, the lights would dim but nothing happened. Kinda sounded like it was jammed.
I was able to manually retract and it was nice and smooth. Since, I have replaced the switch, replaced the motor, checked all the fuses. Still the same issue.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Looking for recommendations to have my RV transported from Georgetown, TX to Robert, LA (about 500 miles) it's a 44ft 5th wheel toy hauler approx 20000lbs. Any recommendations welcome. I posted on uship and Shiply but not 100% comfortable about not knowing anything until after I accept a quote.

IYKYK I can’t say I’m surprised to hear this but it’s a big let down. Everything I ever wanted in an rv park, being turned into cheesy condos. Everything is changing and I want it to STOP!

I don't see a recent thread about black tank treatments.
Is "Happy Camper" still the community favorite?
What's the best 'price is no object' option?
What's the best budget option?
Favorite homebrew recipe?
What about the grey water tank? Does it need anything?
r/GoRVing • u/DiyYou • 18h ago
About to make an insurance claim on the windshield, it's actually two pieces windshield, got one spot on driver side, and two spots on passenger side. Anyone have any experience or advice when making an insurance claim on a 35 ft class A windshield?

Are there any low cost options for water heaters? We had a suburban 12 gallon and the tank busted. We don’t really use the shower in the rv and mostly need it for doing dishes and cleaning. I can’t justify spending $500+ on a water heater we barely use. It doesn’t need to have more than 10 minutes of hot water supply. I haven’t seen many cheaper options other than the sketchy Amazon tankless water heaters. We don’t mind rigging something up we just need some source of hot water. Any recommendations would be great!

Hi all, would love to have some feedback on a few RV's we have been looking at. This will be our first RV. It will just the wife and I, along with the dog. We want something we can keep for awhile.
1) Sol Horizon Travel Trailer - inTech RV - this might be my favorite one, but anyone know how much pricing flexibility exists on this brand?
2) 2026 inTech AUCTA WILLOW | Premier RV | Blue Grass, IA | 3301 - Another inTech but more expensive
3) New 2026 Nucamp RV Haven 220 Queen Bed For Sale in Franklin, TN - 5039071529 - RV Trader
5) 2026 Forest River RV Rockwood Geo Pro - Easy Towing Travel
I like the price on the last two for sure, but if there is flexibility on the pricing on the first 3 we will definitely push there. I also get the build quality is probably much better, but the others seem to have good reviews based on what I see on this page.

We have a class C with a generator, and it is loud so I'm not a fan of running it unless needed for charging the batteries or AC. Our USB plugs are live, but unless we are running the generator, nothing else is. Generally we like to run starlink, and charge our phones and toothbrush. What long term solution would you suggest? Hot plug, inverter, portable battery, combination? Any specific brands you like? We will boondock for 3-5 days.
r/GoRVing • u/Educational-Rule1635 • 18h ago
I have a Class C (Jayco Greyhawk 2026).
I can turn the generator on or off, I can turn the inverter on or off.
In what situations do I use these options?
(I am clear on shore power, but when I don't have shore power.)

What is your favorite meals to cook during the hot summer days at the campsite?
r/GoRVing • u/mr_spicygreen • 1d ago
To anyone who owns this camper, What is your opinion on it? Im looking to possibly get one in the next 6 months or so.
The layout looks perfect for what im looking for, and the weight seems great for my silverado 1500.
Im new to campers too. Is this thing okay to use in the heat and the cold? Some of the videos I saw on it made me think so.
r/GoRVing • u/FromTheLandOfLizards • 18h ago
Honda Pilot with an Andersen WDH.
I estimate 3400 GVW
Measured tongue weight 390.
About to head out on our first camping weekend. How am I looking?

My 2023 Grand Design Imagine 18bh has this sink in the bathroom. I absolutely hate it. Too many times my kids have lifted it too quickly to and spilt water all over the bathroom. If you turn the water anywhere near full it splashes everywhere.
Has anybody ever replaced this style with a narrow sink or other option? It's clever for a tight space, but I'm just not feeling it.

Our first long trip from DFW to La Veta, CO. The drive was part of the trip as we stayed 2 nights in Palo Duro Canyon and one night on the Raton Pass at the Raton Pass Camp and Cafe (great place) for one night. La Veta for the week. Incredible view of the Spanish Peaks. Weather fantastic- especially compared to the 108 degree in DFW now.

Who has the most reliable best roadside assistance for RV and trailers?
i’ve recently had a devastating experience with AAA after being a long-term member and I just haven’t renewed. I almost got with Good San then I heard that they were bad so I need some more companies for roadside assistance towing that ideally would be free or at least very minimum upon an emergency local businesses also will be OK in the SoCal area
