Prevent mold and mildew from growing in the nooks and crannies of your rig as best you can by keeping it dry inside. What happens is, when it’s cold outside, but warm inside your RV the moisture condenses on the windows and walls, and can contribute to mold and mildew. Keeping the roof vents and windows open for ventilation is the best thing, but that’s not possible in the cold weather. Continue reading

Replacing RV Carpet with Vinyl Wood Planks Fulltime RV
I spent 3 days on my own tearing up the dashboard and cockpit area, and both of us 5 days to finish it off! Sorry I didn’t get the video of carpeting the engine housing, but that was an intense day, and I forgot. MESSAGE TO RV DESIGNERS AND MANUFACTURERS: Carpet does not belong in a “camper”.

RV Awning Unrolled While Driving Fulltime RV
My awning partially unrolled while going 50 mph! The wind was a constant 25-40 mph non-stop for more than 3 days, so I took it into an RV repair place to get help getting it safely re-rolled. Turns out, the people I bought it from had apparently left the awning arms unlocked, and only secured with the straps! One was taken off, and the rear arm came down enough to let it 1/2 unroll!

Fulltime RV and the Permanent Physical Address

RV Boondocking My Batteries Down on Solar
I’ve been boondocking for about a week, and the batteries were fully charged the whole time, till this morning, down to 1/4 all of a sudden! I ran the generator for maybe 45 minutes, and all is well again. I only have the one 90W panel hooked up.

Fulltime RV ing Means Travelling Light
I spent all day at this, so condensing it down to 16 minutes, not bad! If you plan on living in an RV (or other small space) periodically, you have to go through everything, getting rid of stuff. Sentimentality? Forget it!
Fulltime RV Woman Uses Garmin GPS for the First Time
I finally got around to opening the box, and trying this thing out; not sure how we got off on the wrong foot, but it took me on a merry chase down an unpaved road?
