  We want to get to know you and share our RV experiences.

• I think it is also important to have a repair kit for any electrical problems that may come up.

• Perfect. Just sent a request to join the FB group, taking notes of how to set up the campsite and what toys i need to get started.

• Great list – I'd like to see something like this that is specifically target towards Adventure Trailer owners

• I am getting my first camper (Flagstaff Micro Lite 21ds). Pulling with a 1/2 ton Ram. Should I install trailer brakes? Thanks.

• Great Videos. Enjoy your approach. Bet someone has already mentioned in the comments GLOVES, and the various types needed, small air compressor.

• What are the names of some of those apps that help you know the height of your RV etc?

• Great ideas we are picking up our first Travel Trailer next week been looking at slot of videos

• I'm a soon-to-be newbie, but I'm very particular about my car windshield and wipers, so I'm going to suggest having a squeegee and sponge thing like you see at gas stations, and a set of spare wipers. OH! Better have a step-stool so you can reach! There's nothing I hate worse than glare in the windshield. It's dangerous and nerve wracking! Keep it CLEAN for comfort and safety.

• I plan on getting an rv in the near future, and your channel has been so helpful

• Is a preset pressure regulater without a gauge and adjustment just as good?

• Don't cook over Duraflame logs.

• Hello. My husband and I just purchased a trailer. We are total newbies so I appreciate all of you videos. I can’t seem to find the rhino hose with that Y hose for the sewer hose and regular water hose for flushing the black tank. Did you get that from Amazon as well.

• Also do you need a water filter? That hooks up before it goes into your RV in case of crappy water at campgrounds? If so which one would you recommend? Thank you

• What is your favorite RV app to download on your phone that works the best? Thank you

• Such great tips!

• New subscriber here. These are great tips. Thank you. Hopefully my wife an I can get an RV soon.

• I use the duraflame logs too 💚 I think a tpms is essential and should be required on all vehicles 😊

• I asked the FM crew what our most necessary gear was. Craig gave the obligatory “the stinky slinky” 😉 I would say that here in NC, with the relatively mild fall/winter weather we get, I love our electric ceramic heater. Stay warm, Save propane, have fun 🙂 Peyton says nothing says adventure like Fairy lights 🙂 I think this pretty much sums up our respective priorities!

• Fire extinguisher is an absolute must have, I really like that you explained that they do indeed expire and need to be checked. Our old pop-up had a little extinguisher that fit in nice little storage pocket but this summer we had a rear caliper on the truck lock up and catch the brake pads on fire! I immediately ran for the extinguisher in the trailer only to discover that the powder had congealed in the bottom and it was useless!! Thankfully we had several full water bottles that I could pour on the fire but it was a terrifying having a fire under the truck with a full propane bottle on the front of the trailer! After getting the brakes replaced I went out and got new extinguishers for the trailer as well as the truck!!!

• I think an essential (at least safety item) piece of equipment is a Rear View Camera mounted on the upper rear body of your camper/trailer. It's not a backup camera. Rather the rear view camera remains ON all the time when you're hooked up, traveling. That feature lets you know what & who's all around you at all times. Is someone tailgating you? Is someone trying to pass you in an unsafe situation? You will know that as you monitor that screen, usually resting up on the dash. My Airstream came with it already, but since these items are not really expensive, it pays to have one installed to help you be less tense when driving as well as backing up into a camping site.

• Another Great Video… I do listen to a. Few others but you guys are my
  "GO 2"… THANKS GUYS

• Excellent!
  Thanks!!

• Great video. I would like to know more about your water filters on your outside hose. Looks like a great set up.

• Always great ideas from you two… thanks again!!

• I like the Duraflame started. They come in a box. Makes starti a fire easier
