Oh man, I am *soooo* doing this whole thing wrong.
I'm leaving on a trip to Texas (flying there and back for an event this weekend), while my truck stays here to have the hitch, electrical, and trailer brake control installed. I'll pick it up on Sunday when I return.
I'll be able to do my run-through, and pick up the trailer on Monday afternoon. After a photo/video shoot on Tuesday, I'm on the road for the summer...no quick overnight trip to check for problems, no mini maiden voyage...it's straight to Pennsylvania for an event the next weekend.
I've already read a ton in the various sections of issues to watch out for, but this summer should be "educational," and I hope you don't mind, but I may be leaning on you guys for technical support.
The good news is, my parents are already about half-timers with their motorhome, and they've been really helpful about supplies I'll need, etc.

Nope, they're not Fun Finder folks, but mom is pretty awesome with her camera and Photoshop.
As for myself, she's got me covered on scenic shots, but I've got the action photos handled.
