2014 25FB first time owner

Hello everyone,

Well the wife and I took the plunge and purchased a 2014 25FB Flying Cloud, picked it up in NJ, and just got it back home safe to TN last week. The family (2 boys) and I are so excited to get it out on the campsite as quickly as we can. We look forward to scanning the pages of this forum for future tips as needed and we are certainly are open to any critical suggestions for first time owners like ourselves. I will post a pic once we get it out for the first time in two weeks. Thanks.

Welcome to Air Streaming and the forum

Advice:
Read the manuals; all of them
Check your clearance, Clarence (especially overhead)
Wear gloves at the dump station
Dump the black water first then the gray
Take your time, don't rush
Do a "walk around", look high and low, anytime you are going to move the trailer
Relax, enjoy the ride, the scenery and have a good time

We too, purchased our 25 FB Twin in New Jersey. I suspect you did business with Colonial, and to that end if I can be of help, just give me a shout.

Congrats!!

Welcome! We bought a lightly used 2012 Serenity 25FB last year and love it. You will find many, many useful tips on this forum. Just holler if you need help..you will get it.

Thanks for the advice rich... I was surprised by the sheer volume of material that was provided and I am making it a point to go through it all. Murry, yes we purchased at colonial. I have to admit that I was slightly intimidated driving away with my new AS in a city environment on roads that I am not familiar with. Just happy I made it back to TN with no issues. To everyone else, thanks for the congrats and I hope to hear from you all in the future.
