Need Help Cold Weather RV Trip

Hi All,
My wife & I are traveling from SLC, UT to Parris Island, SC Saturday for our daughter's graduation. We are new RV'rs with a 2013 25' Winnebago Access. My concern is we would like to travel with fresh water in the fresh water tank and I anticipate overnight temps. to be around 15-20 degrees. Any helpful advice would be appreciated so that we don't damage our new RV. The RV is currently Winterized. Should I keep it winterized - I'd rather not. I'd rather use the sink & toilet as we're traveling. We're going to be boon docking on the way there. Thank you all so much.
  • Hi,

    There is a great thread on winter camping under the full time forum. Read it and enjoy.

    Leave it winterized and take bottled water for your needs. Flush with pink antifreeze.


    As Jack said, except, flush with windshield washer antifreeze, it's cheaper, and smells better.
  • Head south and travel the warm areas. Keep the pink in and dump the tanks later. Again, carry bottle water. I'm in Charleston and the lows are still in the high 30's. PI is south of us a little way and the nights should be OK. The lows are 39-40.
    Congrats on another MARINE.
