Summary: Poorly written and not useful - save your money
Comment: As a new RV owner, I was very eager to purchase this book and two others so I could become familiar with the terminology and learn about how to use and take care of my RV. After reading The RVer's Bible (by Kim & Sunny Baker) and RVing Basics (by Bill & Jan Moeller) first, I was thoroughly disappointed with this booklet. The other two books are very detailed, well written and I give them high marks. However, this booklet is very basic, skims over most topics and is sprinkled with so many grammatical errors I had to toss it in the waste paper basket. Fortunately, a co-worker told me about the awesome Amazon.com return policy, so all was not lost. Save your money and buy the other two books!!

Summary: The "Newbies"
Comment: Upon receiving this book by Carol Ray, my husband and I immediately opened it with much enthusiasm. We couldn't put it down knowing full well we were onto the next adventure in our lives. It was so plainly written that even "we" could understand it. Being in the airline business, my husband a pilot and me a flight attendant, we are so looking forward to seeing the US by driving instead of at 35,000 ft.
We feel that we are fairly educated and whoever didn't like this book, must not really be interested in RVing. When we went to do negotiations at the dealership, I had highlighted quite a few things. As I told the salesperson, "I've been doing my homework," of which they all replied, "Oh, not another one." I took that as a compliment to myself as well as to Carol.
To make a long story a little shorter, we walked out of the dealership with a bare bones price of 60,000, getting everything and every option available but a w/d, that we will install later, for 45,500.
WE THANK YOU CAROL. Don and Ann Fogal aka FOGAL"S FIVER

Summary: The weakest book in this category
Comment: This is a disorganized collection of common sense suggestions that you would figure out on your first camping trip. I would think it might be of value to reduce the anxiety of someone who had never gone out in an RV before, but its treatment of the subject matter is about as deep as a Reader's Digest vignette. I have nearly every title in this category (except the Dummies book) and this one is my only disappointment.
