We purchased our 2011 3500RL used in November and have taken our time to take care of some basics, not the least of which was new springs and repacking the wheel bearings. But Friday last was our first outing. Not sure of ourselves, we decided to park not far from home and importantly, a Walmart near by.
Happy to say that all went well, some challenges but all in all we had a great time.
Just a few lessons learned,
1. If you are hooking up to cable, turn that booster off.
2. Put the Water Heater bypass valve to normal before you turn on the water, somehow we could not get water to the water heater so I disconnected from the water and started all over with the valve to normal before pressurizing the coach.
3. Thanks to a nice neighbor (Landmark owner) Always have the electrical breaker off when connecting and disconnecting from shore power.
Not enough words to express thanks to all of you for making post that we could learn from.

Oh yes, there are some very friendly people that RV or maybe they just like to talk.
