Absolutely true! However, this is the way I eased into my RV was:

1. First night was a one nighter at a full service friendly local RV park.
2. Second, third, fourth, and fifth trip was two nighters at the closest state parks.
3. Sixth trip was back to back 2 nighters at different local state parks a little further away.
4. Seventh and subsequent trips are back to back to back, etc. 2 nighters at different state parks.

I now feel very confident in setting up and taking down my rigs in a variety of settings. Additionally the short distances allowed me to get used to driving something three times large than I had driven in the past 50 years. In between the trips I was able to get the RV into the dealer to get the things Thor didn't do correctly fixed.
