Of course, you should always check your state regulations before buying your new camper just to make sure.<\/p><h3>What Are Black and Grey Tanks?<\/h3><p>Your RV has three different tanks. These are the black tank, grey tank, and fresh water tank.<\/p><p>The freshwater tank is the one that holds all of your potable water. This is what will come out of your tap to drink and out of the showerhead for you to bathe with.<\/p><p>Black and grey water tanks both contain wastewater, though from different places. Your grey water tank holds waste from the sink and shower, while your black water tank holds toilet waste.<\/p><h3>What Do I Need to Know About RV Insurance?<\/h3><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rvusa.com\/rv-insurance?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=blog-link&utm_campaign=questions-about-rvs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">RV insurance<\/a> is a must-have when getting into RV life. You will need to speak with a qualified insurance agent once you have your new RV decided upon to see what your rates and coverage will be for that unit.<\/p><p>Some people think they can do without this specialty insurance, but we highly advise against ignoring it.<\/p><h3>What Do All of the RV Abbreviations Mean?<\/h3><p>There are a lot of different abbreviations used in RV lingo. So many so that we could write an entire post just about RVing abbreviations. We will cover a few of the most common ones here though so you can know what you are looking at when people start speaking in letters.<\/p><ul><li><strong>GVW:<\/strong> This means Gross Vehicle Weight and means the complete weight of a\u00a0<strong>fully-loaded RV<\/strong>. This includes cargo, fluids, people, equipment, and the weight of the RV itself.<\/li><li><strong>GVWR:<\/strong> Gross Vehicle Weight Rating. This is the\u00a0<strong>total or maximum weight of the RV.<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>GCWR:<\/strong> Gross Combination Weight Rating. This is the\u00a0<strong>total allowed weight of the towing vehicle + the towable.<\/strong><\/li><\/ul><p><img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-16676 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rvusa.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/RV-Questions.jpg\" alt=\"Camping questions for new campers\" width=\"762\" height=\"459\" \/><\/p><h3>So What About RV Service?<\/h3><p>RV service is so important. You will want to make sure you are servicing and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rvusa.com\/blog\/rv-maintenance-mistakes-to-avoid\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">maintaining your RV<\/a> regularly in order to keep it in tip-top condition.<\/p><p>If you purchased your RV from a dealership, you will likely be able to get all of your service needs taken care of right there. Most dealers also offer service, and your best bet is to get service at the same place you purchased from.<\/p><p>We know it isn't always possible to get service where you buy though. You may have bought out of state or purchased from a private seller. In these cases, you will want to find a qualified service center close to you. Most dealerships will service RVs even if they did not sell them, so call around your local area and ask to speak to their service department about scheduling a time to go in and talk to them.<\/p><h3>Fifth Wheels Seem really Nice, but Can I Tow Them With my Normal Tow-Hitch?<\/h3><p>The short answer to this is no.\u00a0<strong>You need a specialty fifth wheel hitch in order to tow a Fifth Wheel Camper.<\/strong><\/p><p>If you are interested in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rvusa.com\/blog\/family-friendly-fifth-wheels-you-need-to-check-out\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fifth Wheel<\/a>, you will also want to make sure your truck is up to the challenge, or else you may find yourself needing to purchase a whole new vehicle along with your camper.<\/p><h3>How Do I Know What Size RV My Truck Can Tow?<\/h3><p>Speaking of knowing what your truck can handle, you will want to check the towing capacity of your vehicle prior to deciding on a towable camper.<\/p><p>Check your user manual, if you still have it, to see what the manufacturer states as your tow weight. If you want to make it super easy, you can check the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rvusa.com\/tow-guide?utm_source=blog&utm_medium=blog-link&utm_campaign=questions-about-rvs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">RVUSA Tow Guide<\/a> and we will search it for you!<\/p><h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Want to learn more about RVing?<\/h4><p>Still have more Rving questions?
