Rookies!

Hello everyone.
My better half and I are new to the RV world. We recently purchased our first travel trailer. We decided on a Rockwood Ultra LIte and could not be happier.
We made our rookie voyage to the beach last weekend and things went really well. The only issues we had, not enough water hose and sewage hose. Should not be a problem again.
Looking forward to the next trip and our big question, why did we wait so long.

Welcome from Canada!!
We are new to RVing as well and go on our first trip this weekend. I am glad things went well for you. I like your end sentence "Looking forward to the next trip and our big question, why did we wait so long" You should use that for your signature.

Thanks for all the welcomes. We went with the 2906WS model. It has a real open feel to it.

Hi,
We too are about to make the final decision regarding a Lite 1905. I have a 5000 lbs towing capacity and think I should be fine. What model do you have and any 'heads up' we should know about? Thanks
