Description: To listen to this week's podcast, click on the arrow! https://girlcamper.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/Girl-Camper-Walk-Through.mp3 On this weeks show my guest is Lynn Butler, owner of Setzers World of Camping in Huntington, West Virginia. Lynn and I discuss picking up you new RV at the dealership. What kind of walk through should a consumer expect? How does a PDI (Pre Delivery Inspection) differ from the consumer walk through on purchase pick up day? What is looked at in a PDI? When is it done? How can you remember all the things you’re being told? Tips for a successful pick up day include: Mark out the whole day for this big event. Videotape the demonstrations. Make sure you get all of the manufacturer manuals for appliances. Make sure you do your hitch work ahead of time so you can safely tow your new trailer home. Bring your spouse or a friend along for an extra set of ears. Make plans for a shake down camp out close to home Also this week I’m chatting about what I learned at Camper College regarding water - hoses, pressure regulators and quick connects! Serious damage can be done to your plumbing if you release water at a high PSI  Into your system. Some campgrounds have water pressure as high as 110 PSI while trailers are manufactured to withstand 40 PSI.  A water pressure regulator is an essential piece of equipment in your RV tool box.
