Don't be scared John, I'm sure you'll pick it up again in no time!

I've only had a campervan for 3 years, holidays, weekends etc, and I'm soon moving into a van full-time!
I've absolutely no mechanical knowledge whatsoever and I'll now have sole responsibility for keeping my home on the road!! Confused

If I can do it absolutely anyone can Wink

You will love it JohnSkinny and your only regret will be not doing it earlier.

Hello Johnskinny

Welcome to motorhomefacts and a community of friendly people.
It will be interesting to hear from you on what are the major changes you've found since you last owned a motorhome.

Enjoy the company.

Welcome, johnskinny. Your first couple of runs may have you worried, but it all slots into place eventually. As you overcome the inevitable minor problems, it just gets easier and more enjoyable. Don't be daunted; stick with it; and you've got a lot of friendly help here.

Barry

Johnskinny, (excellent name),

Very soon you'll find you're quite unable to drive a car properly, then you'll know you've got the van situation sorted.
