RVing year round

It's where you perform maintenance on an RV to prevent damage from freezing weather.

What is winterizing?




:D

I use my trailer more in the winter (usually boondocking) than in the summer. I don't fret (too much) if there is snow on the roads (often there is), just take it easy and put chains on if necessary. I drain the water heater, blow out the water lines, and put some antifreeze in the traps after each trip, and it is quickly ready to go whenever I want.

Think of winter camping as journey. Take it easy, learn from each trip and make appropriate modifications, and have fun.

Get a coach that is well insulated with double paned windows and a heated underbelly. When I lived in a colder climate, I would have to winterize after a trip but it does not take long.

I feel that where we live in Oregon some of the most enjoyable camping happens after Labor day when the crowds thin out and a different kind of camper emerges. Quieter, more rrespectful and just a slower pace. We camp nearly year round if roads are bare. My preference would be a pick up with four wheel drive along with a massive truck camper.Since I refuse to finance an RV this is not likely. Winterizing is no big deal. Takes twelve minutes . I usually end up doing this a few times a year. Go for it. Good times and adventure await

I own a 2004 Winnebago Adventurer and I don't winterize it during the winter when I'm home in Washington State. Where I live is a mild climate and I leave my coach plugged in next to the house. My coach has basement heat and I leave a little heat on inside the coach, with the hot water heater on. My coach is not only my RV for winter excursions, but it's my winter storm HQ when the shore line power is out. Good Luck to you!
