Nomadic Know-How: RV Basics for Beginners

This week Jennifer, Jenn, and Tasha get technical about the gear you actually need to RV successfully. From choosing your first rig to understanding weight ratings, this episode cuts through the overwhelm with practical advice from years of on-the-road experience. 

Learn How:

• Different RV types serve different lifestyle and family needs.
• Essential power systems protect your RV and ensure safe connections at every campground.
• Weight ratings and towing capacity calculations prevent dangerous situations and insurance issues.
• Tire pressure monitoring systems and fire suppression can save your rig.
• Budget-conscious RVers can prioritize safety gear first and comfort items later.
• Community connections provide knowledge and support that's more valuable than any piece of equipment.

Whether you're RV-curious, a new owner facing your first trip, or a seasoned RVer looking to validate your gear choices, this episode provides the foundation for making informed decisions about your RV investments.
