Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Towing 5th Wheel in Below Freezing Temperatures


Does anyone do anything special to move when the temperatures are below freezing?  Just wondering since the heat won't be on in the trailer and the inside of the trailer is bound to be colder moving down the road than if it was sitting still.

Never had to deal with it before, but will on Monday or Tuesday when we leave Milwaukee, because the temps are staying in the low teens till then.

I would suggest pulling over every couple of hours and running the furnace for 15-20 minutes to warm the trailer up a bit. That will keep your holding tanks and water lines from freezing, if your heating system encompasses the basement. Ours does.
