My name is Patrick Im retired now about a year. I'm 56 male. I was supposed to have a travel companion,but she left me for a trip to heaven. Anyway I'm looking forward to a trip to California. I want to camp under the majestic redwood trees. These trees are amazing,some of them are 4,000 years old. Picture the tallest tree you have ever seen, probably 100 ft is about right. Now picture a tree 3 times that tall.

I'd like to do the same, I'm in CT  and want to travel. With my 5th wheel.

New to Good Sam. Downloaded app but having lots of trouble using it.  Can not figure out how to get the Good Sam Membership card downloaded to my wallet to use at Flying J's for the discounts etc.  Any help would be appreciated.   Thanks.

Did you look on your profile. My husband and I just talked to Flying J and they told me I needed a card to scan so I called cs at Good Sam and requested one.

I can't figure this out either.  How do I get the discount at Flying J?

Hi, new to the site and RV life.  My wife and I are searching for a class C to visit our grandchildren once a week so we can stay overnight in a campground.  So I guess you would say part time living.  Looking to buy used and of course get an inspection.  I’ve been researching and truthfully some of the manufacturing horror stories are a bit scary.  So, wish me luck lol!  

Good luck!  You will love it.  And have you already found one? We have a 24’ listed near Minneapolis.

Hey all. We bought our very first camper in April and I swear it's been nothing but issues since. We purchased a "new" 2023 Coleman Lite 2755BH. They were supposed to go through the camper and make sure everything was good prior to pickup but they didn't. The toilet was in the wrong position and the lid wouldn't even go all the way up, it wasn't even tightened to the floor. The plumbing in the bathroom wasn't connected and we didn't find out until we flushed the system using the port on the exterior of the camper. None of the drawers in the camper are on tracks because the screws came out at some point while someone at the dealer was using it or in transport. The battery was completely dead. Oh and the best part, after three weekends of trips and three 20 lb LP tanks later we realized they never checked the refrigerator because it was never plugged in, no wonder the propane was being used so quickly. At this point we have horrible feelings about CW and are extremely concerned we just bought a giant money pit. This was supposed to be a great way for us to get away with our 4 and 5 yr olds but it's just been a giant headache and multiple trips back to CW for repairs. We recently purchased the Extended Service Agreement and Wheel and Tire plan but haven't received anything, not even a receipt. Is anyone else having this many issues with this company as a whole. 

We've had no problems with our new trailer, but we didn't buy it from CW.  I've been frustrated with Good Sam's website and customer service. 

Where are you located, please. 

so sorry for all problems. Sounds like a big yellow lemon

Hello, 

   This is Shayna and Pete we just bought our first travel trailer. We bought a 2022 Grand design imagine and are going on our first trip today. We decided to do a 20 minute from home site  to be safe in case what can go wrong does go wrong! We love to travel and have been all over the US for music festivals and site seeing. We recently did a stay in Vegas to see SOAD and visited Zion, The Grand Canyon, and Petrified Forest. We drove from east Texas to all of these places and stayed at an air b&b. This trip was our deciding factor to take the leap and by the travel trailer. Cannot wait to meet more of you and hear about your journeys!
