Happy camping to you!
Mine is in storage already but it's only 2 miles from my house, so super easy to get to. Just getting the cats comfortable in it before our first trip. Hoping to take a short day trip this weekend and an overnight the following weekend Happy camping!!

PS
Looks like other members have headed you in the right direction about your sanitizing question.

Did you have a detailed PDI/walk-through before taking delivery? If they hooked up the water I wouldn't think there would be antifreeze in the lines but you should verify anyway.
Yes I had a PDI but all very confusing. I recorded it though, so I'm slowly going back through and using the info to make checklists for myself

I contacted my dealer and they flushed water through the lines before they installed my water filter... but didn't sanitize. My parents never sanitized their tank and we've been drinking out of that for years with only a brita filter between the tank and our tummies. Still alive

I had a great, long detailed PDI and I came home overwhelmed. It will get better as you tackle one thing at a time. A little bit of driveway camping can help refresh your memory - I wished I thought to do so. Between your notes and everyone here you are in good hands. Have questions? Ask!
