7 ft clearance?? My truck alone is just shy of 7 ft!
After defrosting it, get yourself a refrigerator fan and you’ll be good: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B7SF3YFB
It prevents ice build up and improves airflow so the fridge stays a consistent temp throughout.
You might be able to have a custom one made to your exact size: https://www.randgsupply.com/product/dexter-rv-door-with-square-corners/
I haven’t switched myself but I’ve looked into it. They’re cool in theory, but they’re expensive if you get a good one! I could replace my current toilet 5 times for that. If it paid for itself in dump fees or water savings, I’d maybe consider it.
Our fridge is pretty small too. A cooler defnitely helps. Keep some meals in a cooler with ice or ice packs and gradually move them into the fridge as space opens up.
Also, don’t pack your fridge too tightly. Cold air needs space to circulate, or you’ll end up with frozen items in the back and warm ones near the front.
Bad etiquette? Yes. You’re potentially leaving a muddy or wet mess for the next person.
I’d say Tory’s probably right. But, I’d also throw out their that you might have another grey tank that could still be closed. Some campers have a black tank, a grey tank, and a galley tank. Just throwing that out there just in case. It could be that you have the galley tank open, which collects water form just the kitchen sink, but the grey tank is still closed.
Reserve those campgrounds EARLY!
Use ant baits like Terro. Ants carry the poison back to the colony which can eliminate the source.
We do a lot of make-ahead meals before we leave. I’ll cook up taco meat, chili, and grilled chicken, then vacuum-seal and freeze them. When we’re out, I just thaw and heat over a fire (when possible). That way, we don’t burn through propane or water trying to cook and clean every day.
Good to see that campers are actually using their reservations. But bad that its still difficult, and getting harder, to get a campground reserved!
We just got our third dog a little less than a year ago. We’ve only been camping a few times with them all but I know one had a two-dog limit, but we were never questioned when we were there. We list two if asked and walk them in pairs.
This speaks to me! lol
Escapees has an RV Boot Camp that covers everything you’re looking for. I just looked and they have an online training program too, but if you could make their in-person camp you’d probably be better off.
