Here are our Top Lessons we learned in our first year of owning a Pop Up camper. We have a 1007 Jayco Pop Up camper. We love it! We have learned what to do and not to do in our short time of camping this year. I hope this video will show you what you might want to take camping next time you go!

I am so glad you mentioned your electrical plug heating up. Anyone and everyone who has and or will camp with electricity, please, get an electrician to set you up with proper amps and advice. Your safety depends on it. It is not safe to hook a boat load of stuff into a power cord in order to keep the breaker from tripping. Breakers are suppose to trip in order to save you from a fire. Be safe and happy camping!

Instead of a coffee maker, try a french press. The coffee tastes better and its smaller. U dont need filters. Just need hot water.

My family got use one like your's from my my uncle. We went to Disney. At the camp site a family pulled in late one night next us. They were new to their pop up also. They forgot to put the jack stands down that keeps it from flipping back. Well they went to bed and the trailer bucked up dumping them out of the back slide out. We could not stop laughing but we did help them set up their trailer back up right.

Good tip about unplugging the truck before plugging into the campground power! Would never have thought of that. Thanks!

Typically the power wire from your truck that goes to your camper to charge your camper battery goes through a relay that isolates the vehicle from the trailer when your vehicle ignition is off. That being said, it still should not be a problem even if the ignition is on. The vehicle will charge the battery and the battery charger in the trailer will charge the battery. No different than having a solar panel hooked up while also plugged into AC power.

Don't need a coffee maker. A French press works great. Just add water and coffee in the evening and in the morning you have smooth, delicious, non-bitter, cold-brewed coffee. If you want it hot put it in the microwave for a minute. If you want it cold serve it over ice.

I have a Jayco 1207, very similar to This one. As For The Tires, They are supposed to Last up to Ten Years... They Don't!! I replaced Both Tires and The Spare, complete W/ Wheels Ready to Install for Less than $200 from Amazon! One time Changing A Tire alongside the freeway in a Heavy Rain... 2 bills becomes pretty small price to pay, and they do Add to The outward Appearance a Bunch!! As For The Screw in The Lifting Crank, if you don't have something to keep your Crank Handle from Bottoming out in the receiver you are in for a bunch of Frustration! I determined how far my handle needed to go into the Reciever, then wrapped the Handle Tube w/ Duct tape, to prevent it from sliding deeper into the Tube... made a huge difference, and wont harm the Mechanism in the way they show!

You two remind us of us. We started off with a pop up that we got for $2000. It was in very good shape for one that was 12 years old. We enjoyed it for about 5 years. We finally decided to look for a small travel trailer for the reasons you mentioned, the main thing was being able to get in and out of it without having to open it all up and less set up time. We found a 20 foot Jayco for $12000 new last year. Great videos. We enjoyed them a lot. Great remodeling job you did. Glad you're getting out and enjoying it. Kim and Vinny, Southbury, CT

My wife and I had a brand new Starcraft 12ft Starflyer...it had issues. One thing we learned is do not leave any thing with cloth in the camper...any food of any kind and maybe even take out the mattresses and curtains. You cannot imagine the damage mice can do in one winter to a new camper. The mice chewed holes in the fabric of the beds...chewed holes in the mattresses and there was feces and urine everywhere. We moved on and now have a Rockwood Roo hybrid....I go in there weekly to check for ANY SIGNS of Rodents....trust me they are destructive.

Get yourself a nice Coleman percolator and throw the basket away. Fill the water up to just below the spout. Poor ur coffee into the water and start boiling. Boil for about 7 minutes and remove from heat. Once the boil stops slowly poor a little cold water into the pot and through the spout. That will sink the grounds. Now you will have the best pot of coffee you have ever drank. Check out Kent Rollins KZbin channel for full video!

We bought a refurbished 1995 Coleman Fleetwood Columbia model which is only an 18 foot camper so it doesn't have any slide outs or extra width.. but it's sleeps 6 comfortably 7 if you have to... And hopefully a lot of them are small. But one thing we learned that you must have is extension cords yes and bungee cords. We also keep plenty of insect repellent in the camper so it's always there as well as our small propane containers for our cooking stoves which we also leave in our camper so they're always there when we need them... Small broom for sweeping up the floors and we actually have a very small mini vac that is awesome. We leave that stored in the camper as well when we're not using it. Ours has a brand new air conditioner on top and heater which are actually oversized and work wonderfully. So we stay cool in the summer and warm in the winter. We've used it many times and we love it

I absolutely need more than 1 pot & 1 pan! I do not like cooking on a gas stove, so I bought a 2 burner electric cooktop. It was $20 & a huge improvement. Now I do not have to grill. I like using plastic totes to store all my supplies. I like using paper plates & utensils, but keep steak knives in my camper too. Campgrounds do not want people in pop ups using their sinks to wash(even brush teeth) so it is better not to have to wash dishes. I bought a small Dirt Devil stick vacuum that converts to a handheld, and use that is my camper. It was about $25 and WAY better than sweeping and then using a dust pan and brush! I have a small microwave stored in my camper. And I have brought my Crock Pot, which makes cooking a breeze. And I always use the Crock Pit liners so there is hardly any clean up! I have a battery operated Coleman lantern that throws more light than the camper’s ceiling light. It uses a lot of batteries but is worth it. When the fridge broke it was going to cost a lot of money to replace it, so I bought a portable fridge and use the original fridge as a cupboard. It is a pain to carry in and out of house, but it is too high to keep in camper. These are the things I find essential.

I had a pop up for 16 yrs and with having 4 kids and two dogs we just upgraded to a 31’ travel trailer, I have to say you have no idea how nice it is not to have to stuff the canvas in as you crank it down, we literally roll up to the campsite, level, and put the stabilizers down. The wife and I have it down to like 8 min. Love your videos, you and Samantha rock!!!!!!

We've been kicking around the microwave for a while... It really is a good idea we probably wouldn't use a toaster oven... But it's a good thought resume for people that like their french fries, fish sticks, chicken tenders, and pizza roll snacks. I know kids love that stuff and the toaster oven makes them crispy.

Great video guys and yeah that's great to have a list of things you need and don't need because I always ran into that problem either not bringing enough my dad and I used to Camp when he was around or on vacations or if we brought too much things and then never used a lot of the things we brought getting sent to get me a pop up camper I had started out originally with a pop-up camper and then work my way up to having a couple different pull behind trailers to even at one point having a motorhome but I've been going in a morgue Greene mode and like the views that you have out of pop up and everything it seems like you're more in the nature but still having a little conveniences of home that way That one thing I would highly recommend and something I just purchased this year if you ever go off grid are one of those little inverter generators they are super quiet you can be holding a conversation with somebody and I had one person this year when I showed them the generator they were walking over to it they said all you got that running and it's not one of the Hondas this is a Champion 2000w generator it is last year's model so it is a square tube when but it will run at 25% load 9 hours on a full tank of fuel I have ran a ceramic heater with it on the low setting and it will run for six hours on a full tank of fuel that's pretty good for an electric heater it even is strong enough to start and run a 5000 BTU window air conditioner it will also run after the air conditioner is started a floor fan like one of those $35 ones you get at Walmart so I am very pleased with that generator I would highly recommend getting one if you want something that's quiet and fuel-efficient and even have a new model out now that runs on propane as well as gas but happy camping and I'm definitely looking forward to doing more next summer

Regarding Food: Trust me DO NOT leave chips, nuts or anything mice can get to or you'll have droppings all over your camper & you'll need to chase mice out(which hide very well). I would only keep can goods, alcohol or items stored in heavy duty containers. Also make sure to clean out your appliances really well. Mice love crumbs! We've had an RV for 15 years and we've been through it all. ;)

Love the videos! Sorry Samantha, gotta ask about watching videos or movies and the microwave? I could make it with a few different appliances. I have and air fryer that I have discovered is fenominal for reheating food as well as cooking. It is less wattage than a microwave. Next, gotta have a coffee maker too, just a basic necessity, I concurr. Next, a vacuum sealer. I use mine to reseal chip bags, crackers and anything that can be vac-sealed. A George Foreman grill. Finally, charcoal and some kind of small grill, I can't compromise on that. Personally, camping season has just started for my wife and I up here in NC. I bought a truck bed tent and truck bed air mattress for my Tacoma and we go to some pretty remote places to hunt. Winter is my favorite time to camp. We went twice last year and camped with the temperature in the 30s and loved it. To each his/her own....Love you guys videos! Thanks for sharing!

Anchor Hocking microwave plates are awesome. They're economical, light weight, and durable. Walmart has some Good Housekeeping storage containers I like too. They're square instead of round like most to take up less space. Did you pack WD-40? LOL

Do not pump till grease comes out! If you do you just ruined your seal. The bearing buddy has a sliding cap that should push out as you grease it. When it's close to the end of travel stop. Also it's not a replacement for packing the bearings just a supplement.

I plan to get one for camping and cross country traveling. I find it better to have compared to a slide in camper for a truck, class b camper etc because of price and gas. I'll use my rav4 or Toyota sienna minivan to tow it.

We bought ours thinking the people are so nice we trusted them and we drove 100 miles to buy it. We got it home and plugged it in and a squiring noise was crazy loud it had a bad converter

Invest in bearing buddies. They work great. Also Im my search for cheap tires for my pop up, I realized Walmart will price match tires including online sites. We don’t use our two propane tanks so we just plug in an electric skillet and it’s definitely handy....along with a small microwave, we don’t eat popcorn but we do reheat things leftovers from the camp fire.

I forgot one thing. For storing your camper, add a charcoal moisture absorbent (I bought at Walmart). Just popped our camper up and there was no musty smell

A microwave takes up a lot of space, and it depends on the style of camping. If you’re in a campground or woods and will have a fire going often u can make jiffy pop or kernels in a pot on the burner.

I would add a small hand coffee grinder to the supply's that way you can have fresh ground locally roasted beans instead of year old pre ground stale Folgers

Not sure you covered this in any other vid but make sure you check the bolts on the AC they loosen up over time and the seal will leak

Cool videos. Have you packed wheel bearings yet? Had those go bad once since those little wheels spin so much faster than the trucks large wheels. Good luck out there. Happy Camping.

I love my toaster oven! Casseroles, pizza, toast, pizza (I prefer to reheat food in it rather than the microwave)

Try aeropress for great coffee , compact easy clean enjoy the journey liked your video and I really appreciate my Berkey travel size for water. I got a complete set of cookware that I really enjoy the handles come off and store inside each other so space is not an issue and I can do more You have it going on once again just enjoy 😉

We lost two tires and three wheel bearings in our old pop up. Loved it. We wore it out then gave it away.
