Although not full-timers, DH and I also jumped into RVing with both feet with a 42' Solitude. Absolute newbies, we found taking a driving class to be an invaluable experience. We booked with the RV Driving School (www.rvschool.com). I strongly suggest that you schedule the class for two. I am principally the navigator, but knowing how to pull/back the rig gives me the confidence I need should an emergency arise. Also, get disc brakes put on the 5er (already mentioned by someone on this chain).

another newbie enjoiying your Q&A
First - I envy your journey... lots of good advice here so far and I look forward to your updates as we now all have the chance to share that journey with you - be sure to keep us in the loop.
My wife and I have recently purchased 2018 300GK and I needed a friend to move it to our back yard. No truck to pull yet but I will get one! I am taking the opportunity to learn how everything works at home before going mobile. Target Oct 1! (mostly because of work schedule). We are not selling the house but looking forward to a < opportunity for longer trips.
Seeing how Western Pa winters get a bit long Feb-March is looking pretty good right now.
It's been 35 years since we had a small 18' pull behind which is what kept my wife from wanting to do this for so long. Not the 35 years part but the memories of working like crazy to pack the trailer and 3 toddlers for days only to go away and realize you don't have what you need. Then working to pack up a few days later to go back home and unpack, clean up, and on... and on... - Those days were hard for her. Our kids are older now and I can be much more involved in the process - so we finally did it.
Looking forward to getting to know you all too and Keep sharing - it helps! - the only dumb questions are the ones not ask!Last edited by Bigfred; 08-21-2019 at 04:01 AM. Reason: spelling
