Post a tip

Very helpful, Rick.

Tip:

Party on dudes, and be excellent to one another!

never pee upwind

I keep all the common look-up specs (torque, tire psi, rig dimensions, et al) on the note pad app on my phone. I always have my phone with me. I do not always have the paper notebook from the rig with me.
PDF downloads of all the owners manuals from the rig are stored in Dropbox. I can access them from anywhere with the Dropbox phone app.

Tip 4 your turn

Nice try rick. Obviously, we have more comedians than campers on the forum.

Therefore, my first tip would be to not try to lead the group in any practical productive conversation.

Second tip: Place an indoor/outdoor thermometer with remote readout in your refrigerator and monitor the temperatures. Food will keep much longer at 40 degrees instead of 50.

Buy low, sell high and don't run with scissors....

Placed my outdoor thermometer sender in the white plastic cover for the propane tanks. Even in the sun, it gives a pretty accurate temp reading.

Added an 120V outlet in the trailer that has it's own plug under the trailer that I run a (good quality ) extension cord to CG pedestal to utilize the separate 20A outlet ( when the pedestal has one ). I run my small electric heater ( 350W/700W ) on this outlet, bypassing the 30A power center in the trailer itself.

You are giving me an idea for another iOS app that I will never have the time to write. I don't have the trailer yet but when I do I was going to make a set of laminated check lists so that when hitching or unhitching etc I could make sure I had done alll of the tasks before moving etc. I like you idea of keeping the common specs on a note pad app and the owners manual in drop box. I am now thinking of combining all 3 into 1 app. I may just do that at some point in the future god only knows when.

How would people feel about creating check lists that you could then either keep private or share with other users?
