Hi there!
My last post about my favorite camping spots received a lot of positive feedback, and I saw many great comments about my tips. I’m really grateful for your support! Recently, I started thinking about what other interesting camping-related topics I could share since I have quite a bit...
In May 2024, I acquired my dream 4Wheelcamper, a 2005 Eagle, from a young man south of Portland, OR, for $6,000. After dedicating a month to restoring it for our trip, my two boys and I set off on an epic journey to my best friend's home in Fraser, CO. Over 10 days, we traveled 1,700 miles...
In 2024, I set a goal to travel more and visit as many campgrounds in Canada as possible. Of course, I didn’t manage to visit them all, but for those waking up with the same idea in 2025, my experience might come in handy. This isn’t just a list of campgrounds – it’s real impressions...
I have a 2021 grand design reflection 40 foot fifth wheel. I have been staying in it for two years and have found the best way possible to keep it warm in the cold weather and very inexpensive to do using the heating system that came with my fifth wheel gets to be too expensive buying propane...
Hello all! My family and I bought our first camper this past June and are loving it so far. It's a 2024 Salem FSX 178 bhsk. I am in the middle of a thermostat upgrade if anyone wants to help me out with a couple of quick wiring questions!!

I finally made my first camping trip with the new truck and camper (3,300 Lbs.) setup a 3 - 4 hour trip with the first hour getting through the major metro urban sprawl traffic, then I towed at 65 MPH using 87 octane gas, as the terrain is mostly flat with a few minor inclines. With the bed...
This is a BRAND NEW topper - 3 months old. We bought it thinking it was going to meet our camping needs but we realized we need a different camping set up for our family. This topper is a great addition with lots of space inside for hauling or whatever your needs are for a truck topper or camper...
Heading into the mountains for 10 days and need a way to utilize/filter creek water.
I have a 6 gallon water container with a spout that fits my water tank inlet. But I would like to filter the water or at least eliminate the larger debris that might cause a problem with the on-board...
I have a new Cherokee Wolf Pup 16FQW with tankless water heater, and tank heaters on my fresh, gray, and black water tanks. The water pup is under the sink next to the furnace. How secure am I camping in October when temps can dip into the lower 30s or upper 20s? Wondering if any of the...
We took our 5th wheel to camping world for a little awning repair. An hour later I get a call that they dropped it in the parking lot when they were moving it with the forklift. I went back the next day to observe the damage and found that a hole was punch all the way through the fiberglass and...
I'm very excited that I can finally go to Richmon Speedway and camp, well boondock. I'm looking for advice, we have a new 2022 Shamrock 21SS, this would be our first-time camping. We have been to Richmon a few times and stay in hotels, we wanted to travel to see more tracks and get more out of...
We have a 2019 Forrester Class C. We are dry camping, not connected to AC power. We had nothing on but a few lights. Sudddenly everything went out, the coach was completely dead as if I had throw the battery disconnect switch. After about 30 seconds the power was restored. Can anyone give an...
We stayed at one of these in Salina, UT for an overnight where we left I70 and picked up US 50 on the way to Ely, NV and Great Basin NP.
It's only a sample of one, but I would highly recommend them for an overnight. Brand new, well laid out, good hookups, and long and level sites. Some...
Kenzie's 3rd weekend out with the camper. This was the first one with kayaking. Camping is a newer thing but kayaking she does a lot. Living her best life.
I bought a new 2023 Salem FSX 17 bunk. The roof is leaking in the front already after a few weeks. The question is...I want to take it on for warranty and wondering how long they will have it. I don't want it gone all summer
Bought the trailer in 10/23. I have done 5 long weekends driving 100 to 300 miles one way. Each trip the weather has been perfect. 50's in the morning and highs in the 70s. I have only run the AC two or three times for 3-8 hours.
This weekend I am spending 4 days in mid 90's and no shade. Any...
This weekend was our first boondocking / dry camping with the new E-Pro camper. It went great. The 200ah lithium worked great with the 400 watts of solar. We had sun Friday but light rain drizzle with clouds Saturday and Sunday. Solar kept up the 12v fridge, coffee maker, furnace, lights etc. We...
It's been a great ride - and I mean that literally. Back in '06 we bought a new Journey SE and have been blessed enough to explore over ¾ th's of this GREAT country. We've met a lot of wonderful people, been invited in to see the coach/camper, and even introduced to their dog...
Winter project was to set up my Vibe 26 RK for dry camping.
Upgraded to 230 amp lithium battery, 2000 Watt inverter, battery shunt, all enclosed in a Harbor Freight steel trailer box. To the box I attached an exterior 15amp outlet plugged into the inverter. I also attached an exterior...
Joined the travel trailer camping world this weekend, purchasing a 2018 FR Cherokee 251RK. Predecessor camp units were 25' Class C with a full wall slide, ultra lite 5th Wheel, tent, tent trailer and popup truck camper. Loved them all, well maybe not the tent. :rolleyes:
What's it like camping out in a Recreational Vehicle, "RV"? Was the question I was asked standing next to the RV, outside of a Florida food store. How much time do you have for my reply to that question? Shortly after we introduced ourselves, I began to answer his question.
It's like everything...
