the long adventure-service advice

I'm taking my 2005 25 foot AS on the road on July for a 2500 mile journey. I have new tires. What else should I have serviced prior to going on the road? Bearings packed, propane filled, etc...

Your tow vehicle. The trailer won't get far without it…

Try to take it somewhat easy on a long trip. In my experience, bad things happen at the end of the day when you are least prepared to deal with it. Sign up with a roadside emergency provider - I recommend Good Sam.

Enjoy the journey.

Water filled to capacity, "running gear properly balanced", or install Centramatics.
