What do you use now? You’ll use them in the RV. For real. We lived in: Our cooking is identical no matter what our house looks like. To figure it out: pack everything up now, but label the boxes well. When you need something, go get that one thing out and make note of how […]
To answer if an RV clothing washer/dryer is worth it or not, the first question is are you weekending or fulltime? We weekended for 3 years and just didn’t see the point. We didn’t mind the occasional trip to the campground laundry facilities and taking home dirty clothes. Once we went fulltime, we started without […]
NEEDs are very few, SHOULD HAVEs a little longer, and WANTs are never ending! Watch out for “must have” lists with 30+ things on them. Some are good, some you’ll never use. Start small and go use it a few times before going overboard buying all the things. See if this list helps get you […]
Using solar to save money on electricity is possible but not necessarily practical. First, you won’t get much benefit out of solar unless you also install a load supporting inverter or move some outlets over to be ran off of an inverter (both of which run off of battery power). Then you’ll need to stop […]
The different memberships are good or bad for each individual depending on your travel style, location, and whatnot. For instance, we have been close to where Thousand Trails parks are and love the cost savings (we’ve stayed over 1,000 nights in the past 10 years; at $30-60/night, we’ve saved $20-50,000 in that time). Alternatively, while […]
Honestly, unless you spring for the Opal, they’re all about the same. A lot are literally the same machine with different skins. Find the cheapest one you can. 🙂
Your biggest goal is going to be to minimize your water use. The less water you use, the less likely you are to need to dump. For us, we do very well until it comes time to shower. We are a bunch of long haired Wookiees. When showering, you do “navy showers” which is basically […]
I personally don’t see the point in these but Jackery, specifically, is killing it with their social media marketing. This is little more than some lithium batteries, an inverter, and a solar controller. I had a buddy making these back around the year 2000 but with Lead Acid batteries. Your RV already has one or […]
In my 10 years of participating in RV forums and Facebook groups, I’ve never heard of one of these being stolen. Bikes, beer, and the occasional grill, yes. The other things are easier to grab and pawn than this is. Lock if if you feel you need to, but I wouldn’t worry about it. About […]
