RV owners!!! I’ve noticed recently on a lot of new models, including 2026 models. They are still installing USB-A outlets. I understand that everybody has completely made the transition yet, but most people have transitioned over to the USB-C standard. I’ll be honest swapping these out is about a five minute job and very inexpensive. To me it just seems like the manufacturers aren’t paying attention to industry standards when it comes to little things like that. I wouldn’t necessarily call this a dealbreaker because they can easily be swapped out. But take this as a reminder to pay attention to some of those little things when looking at a new RV.

Haven't seen many at all with this axle spread, sure
rides nice with no sway or buck...just wondering
why it isn't common.

A while back I asked if anyone used dunnage bags
for insulation on the camper. Didn't get much if a
response but...
Update: after some research we decided to give it
a try since it was cheap enough. e bought 10
8x4 and 10 4x4 bags and the gun needed for the
air compressor... not the prettiest but it cost a little
under 500 bucks and it did the trick on insulating
the underbelly. We ordered them off amazon. It's
12 degrees outside and it's nice and toasty inside.
They seem to be holding up pretty well

The RV park we were at this weekend, the water
was set into the ground under that cover with
sewer right beside it. How many times do you
suppose the water was uncovered while someone
was draining the black tank and there was splash
onto the water hose while moving the black tank
hose. What a terrible design and why we always
take drinking water with us

My amazing hubby listened to my never-ending complaint about how I can never remember which k**b is hot, cold, on, or off.
His solution? A permanent marker fix. Simple. Effective. Genius.
But, of course, me being the crafty & organized one in this house… I had to one up him.
Sorry, handsome. (Okay, not sorry.) 😏❤️
**edit **
We also have 4 kids, 4yr to 15yr. It help them out alot too.
