New Imagine 2400BH
My wife and I purchased our Imagine 2400BH last week. This is our first travel trailer and we are excited to join the community. I've already learned quite a bit from many of you and look forward to continuing to learn and hopefully being able to give back one day.
Questions:
1. Do you have any ideas on how to baby proof the bunk beds in the 2400bh?
2. I'm trying to minimize the amount of additional tongue weight. I've come to the conclusion that I likely need to store stuff inside of the trailer and was planning to place on the axles. Any ideas or thoughts on storage and how to prevent things from moving and shifting while traveling?2021 Imagine 2400BH

Welcome to the forum. Dont try to minimize the tongue weight too much or you will have sway issues. In general, you want about 12 - 15% of your overall weight to be on the tongue.

Thank you! I plan to hit the scale soon to get all of my weights dialed in.
Can anyone share any set up checklists or recommendations on actions needed for new RV? For example, do we need to sanitize the fresh water tank? Is that something the dealer would have done? We don't plan on dry camping for a while. I'm comfortable with the connect and disconnect from tow vehicle but not as confident when it comes to things like turning on the water heater, filling the black tank to certain levels, chemicals, etc.2021 Imagine 2400BH

Welcome. We enjoy ours
As has been said you should never try to minimize tongue weight
My pass through is full of camping essentials and tools and the under bed storage is where water and soda and alcohol is so there is lots of tongue weight

Repeat of what others have said on tongue weight. Too little tongue weight and you will be in for a white knuckle ride.
