New R Pod 179 owners

I was thinking we would not be running the AC unless it's ridiculously hot.  We would like to dry camp for at least 5 days at a time, but probably will not be out more than 3 days at a time this season, so I will hold off on that expense. 

I have a cart full of goodies in Amazon. Prime is a blessing and a curse.  

Any other tips are graciously welcomed. 

Thanks again camping friends!

So my 2 cents on backing up, always make sure the person that is helping you backup is in your view, use the mirrors, try not to turn your head around while backing up...it will totally confuse you. 

I took my bride to a parking lot that had straight parking lines. I had her backup using the "hands at the bottom of the steering wheel method" and backup using the right passenger mirror and then using the drivers mirror, obviously with the line on the appropriate side. 

Use the walkie talkies....works great! Big 5, Costco, Walmart...all have them. 

Congrads on the new Pod!

As for backing up, one of the things I really like about this forum is I always learn new things [or I always feel really stupid].  I've been backing trailers off and on since I was a kid but never knew about the bottom of the steering wheel trick.  I can't wait to try it out.

As for confusing right and left, in the world of navigable waters, they use port and starboard.  Thus, no matter which way you are looking on the boat, it's always the same and there's a simple mnemonic you can use to remember:  A forward looking man (or woman) has port wine left.  Thus, port - the driver's side - and starboard - the passenger side.
