Fifth Wheel Driving School in Oregon?

[jillhope7]

Hi all,
I've done a number of general online searches and can't find any RV driving schools in my area. There is one private instructor but he only does MHs, and I'll be towing a 5th Wheel TH. I'd also love to learn more about general RV repairs. I found a great school that does it all, but it's in Texas....
Any suggestions for where I might find something similar in the PNW?

RV Driving School accepts 5th wheels although perhaps not all locations.

For repairs: https://rvtechcourse.com/home-study-option/

However, I don't believe you'd need a 'school' for doing 5th wheel repairs. Just get out the manual for the appliances; use YouTube which has a lot of repair videos and finally, RVers are very friendly folks. If you're having an issue while in a campground just ask a couple people for advice. They might not do it for you but can lead you on what you need to do.

Good luck!

Where are you in Oregon? I towed a 36 foot fiver for 12 years, so I have a bit of experience. If your close would be willing to give you a day for expenses.

YouTube, empty parking lot, cones and practice. You’ll have it down in no time. Remember to go slow and get out and look.

I'm in Portland, but I'd travel if need be! I won't have my rig for another month or two, but if the offer still stands at that point I'll get in touch. Thank you!

Sorry to heat that. Just had to go to PDX today for DRs appointment. What a mess. Hope your not in Portland proper. I live west of Salem FYI.
