Hello all. I just bought my first RV, a 20ft Chevy Escaper, 1990. Everything in it works right and I am looking forward to my first trip this weekend in preparation for my retirement and fulltimeing it next June. I look forward to following this forum and learning all the multitude of things I do not know.

Welcome to the forum! :C

What a nice looking MH. Previous owner must have taken very good care of it.

My tip is:
When you are hooked up to the sewer in a CG do NOT leave your valves open to the fresh and black tank.

Let both tanks fill up 3/4 and then dump. First black and then fresh to clean out the hose.

Leaving them open all the time does not allow enough water just from flushing to move along the sewage. Poop and paper will pile up in your tank harden and cause you all kinds of problems.

Good Luck and have fun!
