Tip... always disconnect the bars on your weight distribution hitch before backing your trailer into a spot, whether that's at home or into a camping spot. Because those distribution hitches do not like to be turned too sharp and it's not good to go over really big humps or dips with them. Often you will have to make sharp turns when backing into a spot and the ground can be pretty unlevel... then you combine a sharp turn with unlevel ground and your weight distribution hitch is going to really cry, and may even break something. Also, wait to connect your weight distribution bars until you are on the road where it is straight and level.
@docsridingadventures2880
@docsridingadventures2880 Год назад
I was just about to comment about the same thing, also most weight distribution manufacturers specifically say not to back up with the bars set.
@kevinsterner9490
@kevinsterner9490 Год назад
I have an equalizer hitch which is very similar to yours. The manufacture says you can backup without taking off the bars. Check with your manufacture and that will your best source for info.
@porkchop10
@porkchop10 Год назад
I have the same one as they do, and back up with mine. The last time I parked I took them off first and had a hell of a time backing into my storage space. Seems way easier when they're on for whatever reason, but I'm also backing in at a decent angle, not 90 degrees
@mitakuyeoyesin1739
@mitakuyeoyesin1739 Год назад
You can back with them... just not up step or uneven grades. It puts a lot of strain on the bars.

Refrigerator tip: plug in the camper at home the night before and load up the fridge. You can use a 30amp to 20 amp dog bone adapter to plug into a regular outlet. Then when you leave in the morning, unplug, and add a few frozen water bottles to the fridge to hold the temp while on the road.

Alot of new camper trailers the fridge runs on 12v when not plugged into to shore power. From what I understand. It's not legal in alot of states to run appliances on gas while traveling. So manufacturers stopped doing that. Not saying freezer packs or whatever won't help during traveling. But while traveling alot of new RVs the fridge will stay on running of 12v, and the system stays charged while driving. Or use solar.

I'll be 68 in August. My husband passed in Feb of this year. I'm just heart sick. Him and I were harley riders for about 20 years. (Him longer as he's built 2 choppers in the 70's). We rode our harleys cross country 3 times. We had 6 more states to get our bikes in. We live in WA state. The rides were awesome. I have a 2008 Fatboy and he has a 2008 Crossbones. We bought them brand new. I love love love my harley. I recently after he passed bought a class C 28' RV. We had both decided to sell the property and live and travel in the RV. I am going to continue with our dream. I'm painting the inside now as most people do in their RV's. Safe Travels!!

You done great the first time. Lots of good comments and suggestions. I been doing this for over 30 years. Propane will last a long time ,so you are over concerned about that. No problem using the electric heater ,but turn the furnace on,at night if nothing else. As someone else suggested.leave the gray and black water valves closed until tank is full then dump black tank first then gray tank. The size of those tanks vary from camper to camper,but guessing your are around 30 gal. Really no need for full hook up site for a weekend,but understand you were trying everything out. Water pump doesn’t need to be on if hook to city water. If pressure is low ,it’s most likely the regulator installed on the hose at your filter . The the water connection probably has a frost free thermostat built in and it got cold enough at night ,early morning to trip it so water would not freeze at the water hookup. One last tip. When you hall the bikes,unload them before you back into the camp site. Some camp sites will not have enough room or be to steep to get the door down and bike out.

You guys did a great job. Suggestion: Replace the oil heater w/a tower heater. Takes way less space,oscillates, and has a blower. Also not hot to the touch. Your cat will like that! Used to be you needed a white hose for pottable water. Water pressure issues: Don't turn hose on all the way.If you're unsure of it,turn off at night. Anything that runs on gas should be used once in a while to keep 'bugs'(spiders) out. Also I've noticed lately that Wal-Mart has a lot of camping stuff way cheaper than dealers. Happy Riding!

I loved this comment. Our first camping trip was in the rain with two toddlers who got the flu day two. Our second trip in our new RV was in the snow and we were all four stuck in the RV for three days. The third and last trip we took was the best out of all of those because we stayed somewhere for an entire week and went swimming and hiking and played on the playground and it was a phenomenal trip in comparison to the first two. I cannot wait to do it again next month.
@hoss1003
@hoss1003 Год назад
I know it's been awhile since you guys posted this. But, I don't unhook the trailer tongue distribution hitch. I raise or lower the receiver plug, until it's level and there's no pressure in the receiver tube. Then it will slide out easily when you pull the pickup forward. Then level the trailer. Do it in reverse when getting ready to hookup and leave. As for your black tank hose, you don't need to hook it up until your tank is full, then empty it. Leaving it hooked up all the time will invite mice, rats, snakes and big bugs to crawl into your trailer from the sewer.. Always spray your power cable and hoses with bug spray, while they're outside hooked up laying on the ground.. Good luck

You guys did great. Im sure you have already learned from the first set up. Propane will last a long time. Do all your hookups after getting the trailerset and level. Park it as far left as possible, closer to the water, electric and sewer connections. I see theres a lot of "next" time suggestions so hope they all help. Dont forget the furnace in your rv. 😊

I do all that stuff myself level it and put the stuff down but my Camper travel trailer is a 2016. I have power awning, power, stabilizers and power off tongue. That’s what I did. I plugged it in today so I have the battery the battery charged up because I’m gonna take my kitty cat with me tomorrow, I need to do that. This is something I need to do. I take her to litter box take that chair that she sits on. I got some vegetables here stick them in my fridge that I’m this week. I gotta get a propane tank filled and then another one filled.

FYI - at the Buffalo Chip in Sturgis, you contract with the “Honey Wagon” to periodically stop by your RV to pump out your black and grey tanks, since the sites typically do not have sewer hookups. You buy colored flags to stick in the ground in front of your RV to let them know you need to be pumped out that day.
@shawnmaxwell1221

I’ve camped at Dillion a few times with a tent and a camper. I would say all the city hose connections out there probably have pressure vacuum breakers on them to keep water flowing back into the city when you shut off the water and it dumps water out of drain holes. Possible one became stuck open and continued to dump water during the night until someone started using water again. I pulled a 32 foot campers for years, they can be a lot of work sometimes, but I think I enjoyed it most of the time, except once when the water line come apart in the middle of the night and flooded the camper, water was flowing out of the walls. Happy traveling!

You guys are doing great! I've been camping my whole life and we always manage to forget something or do stuff out of order, lol. Its just all part of the experience. Little tip that has helped me is parking the camper closer to the edge of the left side of the site, that way all your connections are closer to the utilities, that way you also get a ton more room on the side of the camper you step out of to setup w/e decorations, tables and what not. Have fun :D

You will learn in time what you need to do and in what order and what's not a big deal. The first few times you'll want everything perfect but later "close enough" will be the goal. You'll learn a lot from other campers so make friends with your neighbors. A tranny cooler for the truck is a MUST whether you tow or not.

Not bad for your first time! Take it at a pace you're comfortable with. First, measure your slide and know how far it comes out. Move it over more towards the utility side so you have more space on the living side. Those X-chocks go in AFTER you're all set up. You will bend them in more extreme cases of leveling. Get a 25 foot Zero-G RV hose. A 25' hose will work at 95% of campsites. That blue hose you have is horrible. It's rare to need a longer one than 25'. 20' of sewer hose is enough 95% of the time as well. Your water heater has to fill up if it's been winterized so it will blow air out of the hot taps for a minute or two while it fills. Get an electric heater with a thermostat on it and never use your propane! That black stuff coming out of the filter is just charcoal. They all do that when new. You'll be pros in no time. My wife and I get this all done in about ten minutes.

I now have and Ford F-350 diesel non-dually which seems about perfect. (Your flavor may very... A Chevy 3500 or Dodge 3500 non-dually would be the same thing)

I gotta get the frame welded on my truck within two years. I’m gonna have two years. I’m gonna try to have two years paid off on the truck. I have to do that I’m gonna have to Cluster for my truck 2012 Chevy 1570 cab 4 x 4 but I have to get the frame welded on that but I also got a cluster in August to get changed over cause I don’t know how much gas I have my truck I did put $50 worth of gas in the truck this week But you know sometimes you don’t know weeks ago my truck ran out of gas on the way back from Memorial Day and I had AAA so that’s why I’m trying to get later today tomorrow I have to go to. I’m going to Bass Lake upstate New Yorkparish New York that’s where I’m going to 17 miles away but I moved my truck. I moved the camper today at Tom 3 PM but I wanna make sure I have enough stuff to take with me for that reason I’m supposed to. I’m gonna probably be there plan is for 14 days. I’m gonna have to do that three timesfor 14 days when I go there next year I’m gonna update my plan for $200 and then by that time and stay there for 21 days.

When you back up to hook up your trailer you don't have to compensate for rolling when you shift into park. Set your parking brake, then shift into park. It will also keep the pressure off your transmission when the weight of your trailer transfers to your tow vehicle.

Awesome vid, love the rig!! You can buy rubber gaskets that go into the sewer drain and allow for your orange 90 to adapt into the more recessed sewer hookups. Also for the fridge, plug it in at home the night before, cool it down, then load it. When you're on the road, switch the fridge over to use Liquid Propane, then switch back over to electrical when at your site. Then the cooler can just hold the beers and ice! Hope you had fun! You will need generators for boondocking as well, especially for the microwave and space heater!

@Ride_0n
@Ride_0n Год назад
It's a learning curve, for sure. I've never camped at a site with full hookups. I've always had to fill my water tanks and either run on batteries or the external generator I bought later. Smart move to get used to dealing with the sewage line at a spot where you didn't need to. That way, when you're somewhere that you need it, you'll know how to handle it. Yup, you just stuff it in the hole. Unless you're in the arctic, two propane tanks will last you for days of cooking and heating for two people and that's running the fridge on propane, too. Propane does cost $$$, but cooking with gas is sooooo much better. Going through the hours of prerp to load the trailer and setup, tear down, etc is a lot for one night of camping. but when you get it past a few nights, it becomes worth the effort. Some cats don't handle travel well. But some can get used to it. Good to see Jordan is trained to flush all by himself. 😂 My Tacoma's backup camera allows me to single handedly back up to the hitch with like 1/4" accuracy, even though the monitor is tiny (in the rear view mirror). Backing up the trailer solo into tight spots, however... Sure is a lot nicer with a guide or camera on the back of the trailer.

@Mike-in6mg Год назад
Pro Tip: Make sure you verify that your grey water isn't plumbed into the black tank. Some coaches do this because the black tank is easier to get to than the grey. To verify, close the grey release valve and open the black valve, then run the water that you think should be going to the grey (kitchen, bathroom sink, Shower.) If any of these are connected to the black, you will see it coming through the hose. Some coaches plumb the bathroom sink and shower to the black. Important to know for awareness and to keep you from overflowing your toilet or backing up in the shower tub.

@randybarrett6677
@randybarrett6677 Год назад
I know when we back into a spot, we usually back in to the right side of the spot close to the power and water hookups. We use less cordage and less hose on the ground that way, and it allows us to have more level surface under our awning ( which isn’t a big deal, unless it is raining and you want to sit under the awning) . You have to think of all situations that could arise during your trip, before you level up and hook up all the facilities. Other than that, just have fun. You will get faster with setup the more you do it. You can run that camper for a week or more with the propane in the tanks, turn on your propane refrigerator before you leave home, get it cold and fill it up, you will be fine. It will give you more room for beer in the cooler. In order to understand and feel comfortable with your propane usage, when you get home and get parked, turn on your propane refrigerator and your propane heater to a decent temperature and just let them run. Check it every day and you will see how long the propane lasts, that way you won’t be nervous about running out on a trip. You will be surprised how long it will last. You can even go out and cook supper on the propane stove to get a more full understanding of it. The best place to learn about the camper is at home, because you have everything in the house when you do run out of stuff. The water leakage is due to pressure changes from the water system, you have yours hooked up right to prevent problems, but it will still make a mess. When we go camping we usually use the shower house for showers and shiting and use the bathroom in our camper for emergency situations. Always dump your black water tank first, then flush the gray water tank last to flush out your sewage line, it is a precaution that is necessary to prevent bacteria and smells in your camper. I always enjoy seeing you two together enjoying life.

Guiding the driver backing the trailer. Stand to the left rear of trailer so driver can see you giving directions from his left mirror Remember, If you cannot see him in the mirror, he cannot see you. Use hand and arm signals not a nod of the head for directions. Do not walk from one side of the trailer to the other giving directions. Lint from the clothes dryer, packed into the toilet paper roll core, makes a great fire starter. Start saving those toilet paper cores and the dryer lint.

You guys did great. We’ve been camping for almost 6 years and I still learn every time we go. The main thing is TAKE YOUR TIME ( which you both did) getting in a hurry leads to bad things. I know from experience haha.

Make easy homemade fire starters. Buy eggs in cardboard egg cartons, fill each slot with dryer lint, then pour melted wax over each until full. Break off one or two for each fire, they burn for about 10-15 minutes.

You guys did great 👍. I'm a veteran, and all you need to do is complete the mission, and that's what you did. Great job, you two. I can't wait to see more videos of both of you camping with your toy hauler. Thank you for the share, and I can't wait for your next video.

This was a wonderfully complete video. You are quite a chef. I used to do the salsa and fiesta cheese thing on the eggs I made my wife and I. Very delicious. That spaghetti looked like it tasted amazing. I would also say, there is a device that locks under your ball hitch to your trailer after you disconnect to it, that keeps anyone from just hooking up to your trailer and stealing it while you are out and about. My mom and my dad had a discussion about getting an RV when they retired but my Mom said , I want a break too , because she would be doing all the cleaning, meals and laundry if they bought an RV. A hundred dollars a night or even less, if they got a hotel room was a break for my mom. They never bought an RV. If you want you and your hubby to do mostly motorcycle stuff, maybe enjoy this for a season and reboot to a leaner, smaller motorcycle only enclosed trailer and hotel rooms so you can both just crash out after riding through wherever you wind up. Fun video, but wow, that was a lot of work and worry for both of you,God bless you both.

You did good. You'll get alot of advice from other riders. After 12 years I still evaluate the advice I get, then pick and choose of I like it. You'll learn the best way for you. Everyone has a system. You'll find yours. Happy camping. Safe travels.

First time using a charcoal filter for water will always run black out. Run a few gallons through it and you're golden. Literally made from coal (stoker) processed at the Calgon plant to make clean drinking water. Made in Ashland, KY area. I used to haul coal in there back in the 90s.

Jordan's reverse game is on. I used to make popcorn and watch the fiasco that was my neighbors backing their boat on their concrete pad. They realized complaining to be about backing up a trailer was a waste of time when I put 25' trailer on my driverway, alone, in under 5 mnutes. They had been backing their boat for 30 minute prior to my arrival. Also, Jordans humor and I wouild get along a little too well.

These chevy trucks have a thermostat in the trans cooler lines. In the aftermarket there is an eliminating kit for the thermostat, and its very easy to install, Jordan can probably handle it. That might help the transmission issue.

Cool stuff! Wife and I have considered getting setup for camping, (would need truck and camper; toy hauler would be cool cause I have 2 bikes to choose from. Much to learn as I’ve seen from your setup.) Food you both cooked looks good. The RV-life part of your channel could propel you forward a lot; seems a pretty popular category on RU-vid! Your mention of “living on the road” sounds cool. Best of luck in your future adventures!

If you’re hooked up to water hose you don’t need to have the water pump on. Water pump is only if you’re using the fresh water tank to supply the camper. Flushing the sewage, always open black water first then after you flush out the black water, use the grey water to flush out the poo hose. But it’s your first time so most people go through this learning curve.

I’ve only run the water first to check the water quality otherwise just hook up the hose open the cold water and hot water faucets and let the air roll out before you turn on the gas or power.

I lived in my Keystone Cougar 26RKS for a year and a half while working in Maryland. During the cold months, I would use one of the propane tanks @ every 5-7 days. Two tanks would last me two weeks. This was in the colder months. During the summer I could go about 30 days on a 30lb tank. The Cougar had two 30lb tanks, while others night only have 20lb tanks. Once you have a few weeks under your belt you should have a good feel for how long things last under normal use. Your video brought back memories of my first time with my camper! You are not alone in your experience.

Looks like you guys did great for your first time 👍 in time you will have a routine together and know all the little tricks. Always ask other campers and see what they do that helps so much. We have a park model camper so it stays put but a lot of the things are the same. So great start and don't get overwhelmed it will soon be like ABC 👍👍🍻🌷🍻

Ya’all did fine. Gauge that by nothing broke and no one got hurt. Here’s a leveling tip. I think you had a two foot level so I’ll go with that. Place the 2’ level on the floor (or counter) up against the higher side exterior camper wall. Raise the level until it reads level. If you raise it up 1/8”, multiply by 4 to get 4/8” or the same as 1/2”. You’re a 1/2” out of level. If you raised it 3/4 of an inch you would be 3 inches out of level. Why multiply by 4? 2 feet plus 2 feet plus 2 feet plus 2 feet equals 8 feet. The camper is about eight feet wide. If you used a 4 foot level multiply by 2, a 1 foot level multiply 8. I know, I know clear as mud. Hope this helps. Or, get a Level Mate Pro and a set of Anderson levelers and take all the guess work out😝😁

Congratulations on your new Rv. That campground is actually a spacious campground, some around the country are extremely tight. I use an electric heater, as well, to save on propane. I leave the chains on while unhitching. If you need anything, you can DM me.

Dont connect sewer hose until you're ready to dump. Flush black water first, grey water second. Then disconnect hose again (to prevent unwanted intruders).

This RV guy didnt see anything you did wrong. Those water spigots sometimes have two valves in them. One that turns the water on an one that drains the water out so it cant freeze an bust. If the handle is not all the way open, both valves are open an water leaks on the ground. I preferred to back in hugging the left edge of the pavement. That gets you closer to the hookups an leaves you more paved "front porch." I would encourage buying the pc game American Truck Simulator, set it on hard mode an set the camera to in cab view. That will let both of you practice driving and backing a trailer in to odd places. Better to learn an make mistakes in a game vs real world. Chalking one side is fine on flat ground, but both sides are better before unhooking on a hill. Bigger issue with trailers that have a wheel on the jack though. A digital level is a nice toy. It will give you drop per foot. That times the 6 foot width of your axle will tell you how tall of blocks to put under your wheels. No guesswork. I leave all the valves closed on the septic unless dumping. Rodents will get in there if left open. I also want my gray tank full when I go to dump the black, so I can dump the gray right after an that flushes the hose. Dump stations work exactly like camp hookups. Just a hole in the ground an a spicket to wash the hose. Lots of youtube videos on it though. Water Jerry cans are your friend when dry camping/boondocking. They make portable waste tanks to hook to your RV, dump into then roll to the dump station. That keeps you from needing to move the RV as much. Keep some cheap walkie-talkies in the truck. When the passenger gets out to help backing up, or to check the lights as your leaving, you can still talk to each other. You will use them a lot. Check the trailer lights and trailer brakes every time you pull away from home or camp. Heating with propane uses a lot, but it lasts a long time cooking an running the fridge. The electric heater is a grate idea, but just use the gas stove.. Most RV parks pack you to close together. Thats a good thing for a beginner. Any question you have your neighbors will will know. But more spaced out RV parks do exist, through rare. Lots of people also have private RV pads that they rent out. I dont know an easy way to find them through. Good luck, you will have it all down in no time.

A 24ft camper was my home for about 12 years, here's some advice 1, when you park in your camp site, you want to get as close to the left as possible, that way you don't have to stretch your hoses so far, when you disconnect from the trailer ALWAYS UNHOOK THE SAFETY CHANES FIRST, if you forget the chanes, you will brake something

Shouldn't need your water pump unless your using your on board tank. We use electric for the water heater and refer. Furnace and stove don't use much LP. Also always dump black tank first then Grey to clean waste line. Enjoy.

Just stumbled upon your channel. I’m on doodle on a motorcycle BBB 2022 video where I crashed my road glide on the pig trail, yes I walked away, and I got my bike back last month. I upgraded my 1500 to an F350 so I can load my RG and my husband’s Tiger 900 in the bed and pull our trailer. We are truck drivers, under 40 with 3 children in the US Navy. I hope to be vlogging soon after buying myself a Honda NC750X. I appreciate your content.

Sewer hose support. On the ground with a 4x4 block to form a sump will do. You can leave the gray water valve open and you will never be surprised when you're taking a long shower....😆😅🤣😂😆
