If you have an Ipod or similar device, go on the app store and search for trailer parking. These apps will help a lot in getting better at backing. You need to build a new set of reflexes.

The correct tire pressure is on the side of the pod, up at the front left, on a sticker, that tells you the proper size/type/tire pressure for your pod.

Before leaving the driveway always do a walkaround and make sure everything is secure lights work, hitch is locked, chains hooked up & crossed and enjoy your adventures don't forget tire pressure!

I was glad to see someone else who is new to the RPod. I also saw the RPod and told myself, I want one. I retired in Nov 2011 and purchased my RPod in February 2014. I had to upgrade my vehicle (for towing) then expanded my driveway, so I don't have to store it, then I bought the RPod. I have been to the a nearby lake (about an hour away) twice, once Memorial weekend, then again July 4th weekend. Both times I was with friends who have a larger travel trailer and are more experienced. I have purchased items after each time that I found would make my setting up easier and faster. I got a fitting for my cordless drill to make the stabilizers easier to lower and raise. I got the little support fences for the sewer hoses, and an extra hose to rinse out the black tank (don't want to use the fresh water hose for that) I have now been looking at shelving and storage items for the kitchen area. IKEA is looking good for some items. Question though, I have not mounted anything on the inside walls, afraid to mess them up. What are they made of and what kind of support is needed for hanging shelves, etc??

Well I had been checking tire pressure before leaving but never thought to check lug nuts so did that before my last trip!
