Hello new to camping

[tnade1]

Hello! My husband and I are 'new' to owning a camper as it has been over 20 years since we have owned our only camper which we kept at a permanent location and only used for one summer season. Needless to say, we're true newbies! We have purchased a 2023 26RK Vibe and wanted to introduce ourselves as we are already having issues. We are looking forward to meeting everyone and digging through the forums to learn all we can.

There is a bit of a learning curve that comes with owning a travel trailer. Digging through the forums should help. Check the Resources tab. YouTube also has some good rv camping videos for rvers. Forest River also has manuals at www.forestriverinc.com Owners tab.
You'll develop a routine and camping will become a great experience.
As others have said, if you have a question, ask in the forums. We'd rather help you avoid problems than find solutions.

Welcome to the forum!

My first recommendation is to add a comprehensive signature similar to mine and others', so that we have all the key details about your rig, your tow vehicle and other details that will fill in blanks when you ask questions.

Welcome to the community.

Welcome from Wisconsin. If I had to stay in hotels or AirBnB's when I travel, I would stay home. Our camper is the only way we travel.

Thank you all for your warm welcome and great advice. We had a mobile RV tech come out and it turns out our converter is bad. We have picked up a new one and he will be installing it 6 days from now. We are excited to meet everyone and continue learning.

Pretty unusual for a converter that new, would already be bad.

It must be nice to have a year-round camping season. Six months is pretty standard in these parts. But we learn to make the most of it.
