Hi, I'm Leanne and I just bought my first fixer upper RV. In a couple months, I plan to start traveling so any advice or tips anyone can offer would be such a blessing. I'm trying to learn what I can from YouTube videos but could sure use any help. I live in Tennessee and plan to travel the majority of the country and also Canada. I will be by myself except for my 2 dogs so pet friendly ideas and security/safety ideas would be great. Also, I have an Etsy business I will be doing while traveling so any help on WIFI, etc. would be awesome. Basically I'm in RV kindergarten!!
I bought a 1986 Champion Telstar 23' RV (yeah I know it's a classic), but it has VERY low mileage and has been incredibly serviced and taken care of. The inside just needs updating which I'm already doing and I want the entire outside painted. It needs dashboard air, turn signals and a couple other minor repairs but that's all I know of. It starts right up on the first try and has brand new tires and rims. The size is perfect for just me and my dogs to travel and work at the same time.
I haven't attempted to figure out the holding tanks, how everything works on the inside or outside, the leveling, etc. so that's going to be a trial by error I'm guessing. Other than that, I recently retired and just want to travel for awhile while I still have the opportunity.
That's about it. Any feedback would be so welcomed!!
Blessings,
Leanne
