Today my brother and I winterized our 5ers and put them in the shed for the winter. A couple of months (4-5) under cover while the cold winds blow...

No shed here, but splurged on an Adco cover. Finished winterizing this weekend and covered up. I hope to get out again in late March, early April.

Just did the first winterizing yesterday, plan on repeating it several times before spring as we try and camp at least once per month. Our next planned trip is end of December, but I'm sure we'll get out before then at least once.
I only use air for the supply h2o and a gallon of the pink stuff in the drain traps and tanks. Takes me about 30 minutes, and haven't had an issue doing it this way for 10 + years.

No,no,no. Just the Chebby & Voyager are mine. The MH & building belong to the property owner. The hot rod belongs to his manager.


Do you have any pictures of that Hot Rod ? What is it ?

Yep I did ours Saturday. Realized I forgot the black tank rinser so I had to run out to the storage lot today after work. Took longer to load the compressor into the truck than it did to blow the line. LOL
