Last week, after dreaming of full-time RV'ing for 30 years, we purchased our first RV. We pick it up the day after tomorrow! Besides pop-up camping for 20 years, we have gone to RV shows for years & years and rented RV's several times so we are confident that we have the right RV for us and we'll love it! It is a very gently used Winnebago Vista 35F.
Our house sold about 6 months ago, so we put irreplaceables in storage and rented an apartment because we wanted to help our daughter care for her twin girls who are now 1 month old. Our lease is up and the twins will be 6 months old in June so we will then be full-timers!
Our immediate question is about tow cars, dolleys, and towbars. What can any of you recommend? We have a Mazda 5 and there is no transmission bypass pump available per our dealer. We also have a Honda Civic which is not really comfortable for my tall big-shouldered husband to drive.
So are dolleys harder to manage than towbars? And if so, what kind of vehicle is good (or not good) for towing with a tow bar?
Anything else anyone would like to suggest to us just getting started?
