Welcome!

Agree with bushpilot, your first camping "trip" should be close to home. Spend a week at one of Florida's fine state parks near home. You will be amazed at the amount of things you need to have with you that you forgot or didn't even occur to you. And that is when you are close to home or a WalMart. No such luck on the Alaskan Highway. You need all your ducks in a row for that trip. Supplies, tools, spares parts, spare fluids, etc. After a full season in our camper we still find things we need in there. Then do a trip long enough to spend a full day piling miles on the thing to check reliability. Nothing like 10 hours pushing it hard on the highway to make the gremlins pop up. Better to sort that stuff out in range of home than in some godforsaken rv dealer halfway past nowhere Kansas.
