First time MH owner

We just purchased our first "new to us" MH. 2008 HR Vacationer XL. Just spent the last three weeks in it. It was great. Have spent the last 30 years camping with TT and 5th wheels. Love the DP. The ride and drive is quieter than expected. No rattling dishes or odd squeaks, so far.

Most motor homes have squeaks, rattles and other strange noises. You'll quickly get used to recognizing them, so a new noise will stand out. Like the time I forgot to secure the dehumidifier before taking off. Its on castors and weighs 35 pounds......

Welcome to IRV2! We're sure glad you joined the gang!

Congrats on the new DP! We pulled a 5er for 10 years before getting the MH last spring. We love it! Enjoy the forum!

Good luck, happy trails, and God bless!

No rattling dishes? You obviously have not driven through Indiana yet.

Thank you all for the great welcome. No, I have not been through Indiana yet, but plan to in the next year or two.
