When do you winterize?
In the last two years the DW and I have been camping well into November in northern Indiana with a run of the mill Dutchmen TT. I have found that a 20 degree night is not all that bad if the next day...

Completely understand waiting if you are still able to use your RV.
I take a different approach at it though as my work (yes, four letter dirty word) schedule can have me drop things at a moment's notice and head off to the airport. So, when it gets near the end of the season, Sept/Oct, I will go ahead and winterize although I have had good luck with compressed air and just draining WH, blowing out lines, dump tanks. No pink stuff in the lines, only in the p-traps and toilet. I don't want to get caught away with an early sustained cold snap where there is nothing I can do about winterizing while out of state.
Obviously, even though it was winterized, I can still use the trailer and choose to only use bottled water and just quickly winterize it again when home. It actually doesn't take very long to blow out the lines so it is not something that I mind.
