When to winterize in the SW
Living in NM i am curious when most of the SW folks end up winterizing. I am thinking prior to the second week of November. Thoughts?

I do the same as NMDriver... For me just getting down to 32 degrees is not going to be a bother especially when camping if it is going to warm back up the next morning.. Its those couple of days in the high 20's that freezes things up hard for my OFF-RoAD trailer...
Using the blow out method works fine for us since most of our camping is OFF-ROAD and back off the trails alot... It only takes 5-10 minutes to winterize using the drain the big tanks and blow-out the inside lines method...
My problem is always finding fresh water after I drain my out haha... I have saved as much water as I can in jeri-cans a few times and keep it inside with us where it is abit warmer over night...
It really doesn't get below freezing for extended periods much here in the Northern Neck of Virginia area.. Of course with all of the weird climate changes on-going this too may change here locally... We are having 95 degree days here in Sep now... I may have mowed my yard for the last time already a couple of weeks back due to it dying from heat...

Those that use "air" to purge water lines, are you using a "oil less" air compressor?
