Smile Who's on first?

Hello community - Total newby, just bought my first rig and loving it!I've spent most of my life up in the sky but now enjoying a new perspective from my rig cruising with my lady.
Sharp learning curve here but I wanted to jump right into the deep end and so far the water is nice.
Feel free to say "hello" and share wisdom. Cheers!

Are your best bets for getting comfortable with a 24.1

There is also a very nice manual which someone will post a link to.

No worries, I also do well with those who speak fluent sarcasm.

Welcome!

Welcome to the site - I absolutely love it. It is like knowing that you have a whole bunch of really smart distant relatives who will drop everything and help you out when you have issues! I am on my first MH after having bumper pulls, so I am constantly trying to figure out new things. I can usually find an answer (or at least reassurance) here!

Welcome aboard, a lot of great people with a lot of knowledge on this site to help you out when needed. As for me, for the last 38 years Ive been one of those guys or gals who were waiting for you to return to the ground to fix what you may have broken while in the sky...lol

I appreciate all that you do and have done to keep me safe!

So far I'm picking this up little by little - eager to learn and hoping I don't make too big a mess of my attempts to repair issues.

I'm about to buy the Safe-T-Plus stabilizer. Looks easy enough to install (though I'll have to do it at the campground). I'd imagine it's quite a difference in driving stability.
