I purchased my first RV tent camper last week. It is a 2020 Rockwood Freedom 1940LTD. I hope to use it when going to dirt track races or just for general camping.

My tow vehicle is a 2015 Ford Edge 6cyl. It does not have a tow package but I have added a CURT Triflex brake controller because the camper has electric brakes. I was pleased that I got a little over 20mpg on the 80 mile drive from the dealer to home.

I may eventually add a larger radiator with more powerful cooling fans. I bought the Edge last March for the purpose of towing. It had a little more than 28k miles and only has about 33.5k miles now.

I am interested in reading forums for tips on RV camping.
