Great book!5
This book was used as a training aid when I worked at an major RV repair shop. I'm glad to finally find an upgraded version for my own use.

Been full-timing for six months now in an old Class A motorhome, and...2
we've hoped this book would be as useful as the reviews say.

We've referred to it several times, but it wasn't helpful for us in:
* how to replace a water heater, the different types involved, that an access door is needed to be purchased too.
* how to fix torn awnings.
* how door latches work or can be repaired or replaced.
* what to do if your circuit breakers trip all the time.
* what's involved in replacing the carpet in the rig.
* how to avoid ants at sites, which is a common occurrance.

We finally quit referring to it.

It IS a thick book full of pictures and articles, but it hasn't helped us in real life.

Outstanding! Trouible-Shooting Pages a Superb Value5
My wife inherited a 1988 Winnebago (31 foot, no slide-outs) and we've decided to bring it up to speed for beach trips. This is one of two books I have bought to get started, and it is the better of the two, but I like them both.

This book is absolutely one the best car maintenance books I have ever had the pleasure of using (I also have a 1964 MGB and related maintenance books). This book is brilliantly organized, crystal-clear, and I especially appreciate the full-page trouble-shooting guide with symptoms and fixes in two columns.

I also recommend RV Owner's Handbook, Revised (Rv Owner's Handbook) but I use that for overview reading. If you want only one book, buy the Trailer Life book, it is vastly more detailed and useful with respect to each individual system in any given RV.

I have not bought but want to flag Woodall's RV Owner's Handbook: The Complete, Illustrated Guide to Preventative Maintenance & Repairs for consideration.
