Had a fifth wheel for years. We will purchase a large Class A and I want to take courses how not only to drive, back, and other operating factors. We are in Alabama but do have wheels will travel. Any suggestions? Oh so many question and short time to get this done! Help! Thanks all.

Not sure, but you might check out some of the Truck Driving schools for 18 wheelers.

Look up Good Sam Club, and FMCA. Then locate the chapter in your area and ask them when/where a driving seminar is.

They have driving instruction classes for RV'ers. I've been told you don't actually have to join the clubs to attend their RV driving seminars.

Escapees club can hook you up with an RV driving school/boot camp.

Check with your local school bus company. They may offer a course. At least it will help with the driving part of your Class A.

Take a spotter and get it out and drive it.

I took a course from a truck driving school. At the time 4 hours with my own rv. Well worth it.

Lazy Days in Seffner, FL used to offer a driving course. Their website will probably tell you if they still have it.

DW and I both took private lesson with rvschool. Yesterday we split the driving as we do everyday. She drove the mountains without fear. She did not drive the mh until she had the lesson. The instructors have rv specific experience and talk our language. A side but important benefit is we now can guide each other when parking as we have common sign signals we both understand. We both understand tail swing and “using all the real estate. Gen an rv specific private person.
