Greetings!
I am trading in my 32' TT and making the change to a 40’ Puma park trailer with two slides. I camp almost every weekend from mid April to late October and it is becoming more difficult to tow the trailer and get onsite at a reasonable time these days. Since I have never been on a seasonal site I wanted to know if there was any “gotcha’s†I should be aware of. I was also unsure about how to care for parts of the trailer. Where it will not be moving is there anything I should do to preserve the tires, chassis, breaks, etc. How should I handle the sewer connection? Should I run a PVC connection from the trailer to the drain and leave the camper drain connections open? Should I wait until the tanks fill up to dump them? Should I support the slides?
I know my dealership will cover a lot of stuff on the delivery but I wanted to hear from the people who are actually maintaining the seasonal campers. I have always found great information here and think this is the best place to get my new questions answered.
Thanks in advance for any help,
-Steve
