That means on arrival, we have to hook up electric, water, sewer, then extend slides before leveling.



Just to satiisfy my curiosity, why do you need to have the engine running to connect electric, sewer and water?

We don't need it for those things, but engine running needed for dropping the leveling jacks, thus we leave the engine on until we do that. Electric needed for extending the slides. Sewer and water done before extending the slides to avoid hitting head on the extended slide, that really hurts.
