Need affirmation

Okay.... So it is my first major trip with the new TT after having my previous one for 20 years and the one before that for 20 years. Yeah, forty years of RVing and this is only my third one, but I'm still on only my second TV.... Anyway, a lot has changed on these new ones and I need some affirmation that I'm getting it right. TIRE PRESSURE: the sidewall says 65lbs and the side of the camper says 65lbs. Is that right??? Seems like an awful lot to me. Next, TV says 35lbs. That is 35lbs and then hitch up, right??? Yes I have all the WDH and anti sway bars down pat.... That's just simple physics.

Slide outs, elec awning, power jacks, ac/heat, thermostats, hot water tanks, circulating fans, all sorts of alarms and indicators, wi/fi, blue tooth, a recharging station, even a back up camera! Hell its common sense to me that if there's something behind ya don't back up! If there ain't nothin there then what the hell do you need the camera for? DW says stop long before that stupid thing starts beepin anyway. The only thing it doesn't have is a depth sounder and sonar for crying out loud! The people who came up with all this******have too much time on their hands!!! All I wanna do is grill a steak and read a good book dagnabbit! :h
  • What...are you telling me that you don't have a remote temperature sensor so that you can grill that steak to perfection with your smart phone???


    Come on man, get with it. The covered wagons days are gone.

  • Agreed. You've got all the right information. Congratulations! Enjoy your new unit!
  • 65 pounds in your trailer tires sounds about right. Don't worry, in just a short while you'll come to really enjoy all the new gadgets! (including the back-up camera). Then you'll wonder how you survived without them so long.
