What Do You Wish You Had Known Before You Started RVing?
RVing is an incredible adventure, but let’s be real—it’s not always smooth sailing. In this episode, we’re tackling a question "What do you wish you had known before you started RVing?"
These are the kinds of conversations we have around the campfire, swapping stories about lessons learned, rookie mistakes, and those little tips that make life on the road easier. From RV maintenance and campground reservations to trip planning, budgeting, and the reality of storage space, there’s a lot to figure out. Maybe you wish you had known how tricky backing up a trailer can be, or the importance of tire maintenance before your first big trip.
To get the best insights, I turned to the RV Out West community, and you all delivered! You shared your real experiences, common mistakes, and practical tips to help new RVers hit the road with confidence. Tune in and join the conversation—because the more we share, the better we all travel.
