Suppose you decided right now to take a trip, how long would it take you to be driving away? We just got home today and it occurred to me that when I get home I'm basically getting ready for the next trip. I clean everything out, wash all the towels and linens, gas it up, etc.. So, when we are preparing to leave it doesn't take very long but, a lot of the work comes on the back end of a trip. All we need to do to hit the road is groceries, some clothes and hook up the toad. If we stop for groceries on the road we can be ready to go in a few minutes. vermilye • View posts Oswego, NY, USA Senior Member Joined: 08/11/2004 View Profile Good Sam RV Club Member Posted: 12/27/12 05:13pm Link  |  Quote  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator Well, since the trailer is under 19" of snow it might take some time!

Same amount of time to set back up when we get to destination. Before we hit the road.........it would take days and days to get ready then about 10 minutes for pre-check, hitch and GO 2007 RAM 3500 QC LB SRW 5.9L CTD 48re 4:10 4K in bed 'quiet genny' 2007 HitchHiker II 32.5 UKTG 2000W Xantex Inverter Hit the Road Free & Clear April '07 fatmanobx • View posts Russellville, Ar.

Usually takes me about 2 weeks to get all ready. Joe&Charlotte, Nat'l SurfSide DE34D Ford 362HP 5speed Rusty, Rosie, Snuffy Dogs Leroy's a Conure If a 'Little' is good, 'Alot' ain't better.

Only food and clothes go back and forth. Car left in the MH spot. Stored at dealer so any maintenance can be done by them and MH placed back on storage lot. We live about 10 minutes away.

Takes me that long to decide on clothes, load up my and DH's clothes, shoes, toiletries, meds., my Keurig and condiments from the house. While I'm doing that, DH is filling water, checking tires, etc. and doing checks. We each do a final walk around and then hook up the Jeep together and hit the road! We also prep for next trip upon arrival at home. Coach gets gassed up before pulling in our drive. Everything washed and re-loaded day after we get home from a trip. 09 Fleetwood Jamboree 31M - 'Summerhouse' Ford 6.8 L Triton V10 5spd “Light hearted I take to the open road… Healthy, free, the world before me… The long brown path before me leading me wherever I choose.” - Walt Whitman Reply to Topic  |  Subscribe  |  Print Topic  |  Post New Topic  |  Oldest first Newest first  Page of 9   Next Open Roads Forum  >  General RVing Issues  > How long does it take you to get ready to go?
