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!!

Hitch Safe Neat Idea

I came across this little item, and I had been contemplating finding a place to hide the extra set of keys, I case I lost mine, and got locked out.

Looks like it's about $50 on Amazon. It's a key safe you can put into your tow hitch receiver. Of course, if you are actually towing, not good, but I'm not towing, and my hitch receiver is just sitting there!

I would be concerned that it might not be water proof or water resistant.  Driving on wet roads will put a spray of water all around the rear of one's RV.

I got the Hitch Safe today, so here is my review: looks like it should be waterproof, except perhaps for condensation, which happens. Trying to get the clam shell packaging open wore me out, these people know security! evileye 

It was pretty easy and straight forward to put on, there are some foam washers, and I took the two largest off to fit my hitch. One word of warning! Those "silver buttons" that fit into the hitch holes.... make sure to get them in straight and push them in all the way, before pushing the slide locks back! If you don't (like me) they will seize, and it will be hard to get them back out and start all over! But once it's in, it's in, and it's all good! Fit a full set of keys, plus in there.
