1. Hey Rick.......Couldn't agree more to taking a weekend to break yourselves and the rig in. We were not planning one until a few here and on youtube recommended. We were fortunate to have a campground round trip distance of 16 miles. We had an issue with the language in the owner's manual regarding the water heater.....the STANDARD by pass value which prevented water from getting into the water heater was the issue. Thought we had burned out the electrical element (manual warning, not covered by warranty).......all was well. We also were familiar with LP gas only for a stove in our land base. We turned out to be paranoid about full unit service of LP gas (turning on; not fast; both, yes, 1 at a time)....which led to a cold first night. We had never had to turn on gas tanks before......could not remember what had been said at the walk through. Again, the owner's manual did not go far enough. We were checking both owners and appliance manuals to get the electrical and gas accessories going. Part of our concern was being ramped up with all the "smell gas" warnings in the trailer, the tanks and the manuals......all is well after the break in and one 400+ mile trip. All systems go......but we used city water over both weekends. We are not sure where we will be able to flush and sanitize the fresh water tank since. It may have trace amounts of anti-freeze in it. We live in a critical wetland area. Therefore, we have not tested the water pump. We flushed the rest of the system with city water on site during our first trip. I wish we could ramble in the TT like I can on this forum!! Eric
