New (new to me) RV owner.

Hello everyone. I just bought a 94 Coachman Sanatra. I know literally nothing about RV's. I was wondering if anyone had any information that i might find useful. I am putting it in an RV park for the time being. Im thinking about moving out of my house and staying in it for about 6 months to save up some money. Does anyone have a Sanatra Class A 35' that has any tips on things i may need to be mindful about? Thank you all.

David C.

Welcome to the forum. I would use the search function and search on Coachman and there should be a mountain of data. If you have specific questions just ask.

I assume you are going to rent your house for more than enough money to pay for campground fees,motorhome payments,insurance & maintenance? Otherwise I don't see how you are going to save money.Just sayin',I could be wrong...I think I was wrong once.

I will check out the info box. Thank you! My full coverage insurance is only 76 per month and the monthly fee for the rv park with full hookups is 460. Those combined are far less than the 1300 i pay for rent in my current house. That should leave enough of a buffer to handle all other expenses.

OK,that makes sense. I assumed you owned your home. That's what I get for assuming.
