A great tip when driving big things, my Dad told me this trick, and even now close to 50 I still use it to this day, I used this trick while in the Fire Department, I'm a retired Captain, I also was an Engineer, that's the guy/lady who drives the Fire Engine, those are comparable to a Class A. Before you sit in the seat, and even after this still works. Place a finger or hand or fingers on the RV, and walk around while keeping contact. Go all the way around only stopping once you are at you starting spot. This is even better if you start at the front left door where you sit as the driver, and walk clockwise around so head across the front and to the passenger side or curb side, walk the length, around the tail, and back to where you started. What this does is it will gives you an extra mental, and visual sense, as to how big and long you are driving. You drive and will kind of have this sense what is following you and how it is on turns. It just gives you a better sense of the object you're driving. ❤ Thanks for reading, be safe everyone.

You said something that a lot of people need to hear… “You need to drive differently”. I drive a super C and try to stay between 60-65. I have larger RV’s with a tow behind passing me all of the time. Slow down and be safe.

Finally! Something very informative about rvs not about showing where kitchen utensils are being stored.

I had a motorcyclist tell me when I was trying to park in a tight place the same thing as you said,” your bigger, don’t worry about other vehicles. Drive slow park at your comfort level.”

Thank you for demonstrating the left turn tail swing

Everyone should take the RVDriving school course. They teach you in your own motor home. They are all driving instructors with decades of experience. They are a wealth of information. They teach you how to set up your mirrors correctly, how to navigate turns, how to back in to a camping spot. Emergency braking, I was driving around the parking lot and my instructor would out of the blue yell stop. A. you will dip in the front, it could be a child or another vehicle, anything. It was a great lesson on how the RV would react. Although I had driven large trucks and my husband drove tractor trailers, this was very different. Well worth the money which was very reasonable. Last thing they do is take you onto every kind of roadway from small residential to the highway. Then to get fuel.

I’m a brand new rv owner and driver ( class C 25 Ft). I just drove my rv home from the dealership and encountered a severe thunderstorm. With driving rain and winds, I pulled my rv over to the side of the road and waited until the storm passed. Not sure if it was the right thing to do, but the wind was really affecting my ability to keep my unit in its lane. Lesson learned through experience.

Very welcome

I'm an RV wannabe & have never driven a Class A, but I've driven fire trucks for 30+ years. Even though they are heavier than RVs, they are roughly the same size so I've always assumed the transition wouldn't be too big a deal. One thing you didn't mention is to be careful about the angle of approach (AOA) and particularly the angle of departure (AOD). The AOA and AOD are the slopes you can drive onto and drive off of without scraping either the front or back of the vehicle on the ground. Long overhangs behind the back axle(s) can dramatically reduce the Angle of Departure (slope) that you can drive off without scraping the back end on the ground. I enjoy your videos & maybe someday I'll have an RV of my own!

I'm always happy to hear the same rattling and squeaks while driving that I have I'm my open road.

Thanks for this! I haven't driven our motorhome (39.5') yet, so all of these tips are very helpful to me. I'm still a little nervous just riding in our motorhome because my husband wants to drive 70 mph on the Interstate when I feel more comfortable riding at 60-65 on the interstate. Instead of just slowing down so that I feel more comfortable, he just argues that it's safe because truckers drive much faster (not considering that they have 18 wheels and we have 6). It's nice that you two agree because feeling uncomfortable in the passenger seat is not enjoyable.

My first experience driving a 32' class a was absolutely terrifying! I drove 91 miles from Valrico to our home in Central Florida on I-75 and I've never been so nervous in my life! I had to stop for gas, pulled into a Flying J truck stop, made all my wide turns and by the time I got back up on 75, I felt more comfortable, but I was still a nervous wreck! The biggest thing I noticed about driving the motorhome was how bumpy the ride was! We don't have air suspension, and I thought the damn rig was going to jiggle apart. I was simply unprepared for the noise! I think we are going to invest in an upgraded suspension system and will keep air ride in mind for any further motorhomes! I guess I was expecting it to be a little more cushy ride than it was, but that's a rookie mistake. It really is just a 32 foot long truck that rides like a school bus! Thank you for these videos, I watched them before I made the drive home, and I did make it home unscathed!!!

Congrats on stepping out there and getting it done.

These tips apply to pulling travel trailers too. I think a lot of crashes happen because people forget they have such a large vehicle. On one trip I was pulling my 30ft trailer down the interstate when another trailer in front of me had their cargo door open, and everything started falling out onto the highway directly in my lane. First natural reaction was to hit the brakes or swerve around, but you cannot do that in a motorhome or travel trailer. I ended up just running all the stuff right over. You have to remember, you are longer, wider, taller and heavier.

I’ve marked our convex mirrors with bright pink 100 mph tape that marks the pivot point on both sides of the RV so I know when my rear axle is past the point where the tail swing will be an issue it helps a lot! I just used some cones to help set this up, thanks for the great videos

Great video very useful tips I just returned from a 1500 mile round-trip out west mostly four lanes and interstates I drove 60 miles per hour my wife was a lot More relaxed the Motorhome drove and handled better And averaged 9.4 MPG Which is way better than I’ve ever gotten

We have Mobile Eye installed. What a game changer! Many fleets installed mobile eye. Alerts when I get too close, a pedestrian in my path, when about to cross into another lane or off the payment. We were on a four-lane state highway doing about 65. I reach for something on the dash and it dropped on the floor. For just an instant, I took my eyes off the road look down for the object. Then mobile eye started screeching! I hit the brakes, pulled my head up to see a car stalled in my Lane that just pulled on the road. I was sure I was going to hit the car and the man inside. But, mobile I alerted me in time and I never touched him! Came close, very frightening close. I'm a believer in any kind of collision avoidance system.

I love seeing this and hearing this while you are actually driving. I travel all over the world but my dream is to see my country in a motor home. Dreams are important!

Make sure to use safe pull outs whenever possible on one-lane roads - it's also the law in many states. Passing lanes/sections are short and not always safe. You pulling off temporarily allows the vehicles going at a normal space to pass without being dangerous. You'll make everyone's day better.

You make it look easy! My husband took me out this morning for my first drive. I can't wait to learn. I'm glad you said I can take my time and not care if impatient behind me.

I read, watched (one of your videos was helpful) and studied before driving our class A .40 ft. I took it slow and easy, paid attention and remembered what I learned from my studies. I was a little anxious to start but after my first round trip I was thrilled to have overcome the “fear” and know I can drive as well as my husband.

Good for you! 🙌

I really appreciate the “slow down” part. I pull a travel trailer and stay around 6o mph. I can’t tell you how many BIG 5th wheels, travel trailers and Class A’s go flying by me. And when they do that the wind affects me a lot more than if they’d only been 10 mph faster than me. When they fly by at 80 I can really feel it, even with my WDH set up.

I never would had thought about "tail swing " we always worry about left side when making a turn but never about the other side! Thanks!

Going on my first drive to an RV site this month in a Class C, Jayco Greyhawk. This video has been tremendously helpful! Thank you for posting!

Coming from a truck driver that's been on the road for fourth years, five stars nice job on the video.

Great video for new motorhome owners, good job! You mentioned it, but I can't emphasize enough to use engine braking on downhills, especially when they are steep and/or long. Engine braking can only do so much though especially with Gasoline engines (compression braking on Diesel engines is much better), so keep speeds way down, break hard and short to slow below target speed and give brakes time to cool before using again. A good rule of thumb is for the downhill speed to be similar to the uphill speed for a given grade. Brake failure due to overheating can be catastrophic. Quebec Ferry accident from 2 years ago (video on KZread) is a good reminder.

We bought a Entegra Emblem this January, never drove one before but after about a hour of white knuckling I finally relaxed a little and found it really wasn’t as scary I thought it would be. I had watched your previous video on driving a RV it it helped a lot. Great video, thanks for you advice.

I am disabled and therefore I am on a rather limited income making our current housing crisis much more dificult. So I got an old motorhome for my service animal and I to live in. I know this is not ideal but I don't want to spend the majority of my meager income on shelter alone. I want to also have my cell phone and at least forgivable food as well as insurance maintenance etcetera. Today I got my first sample of "get out of my neighborhood" agression. He even called the police on me. They asked questions and got answers and then spoke to the complaining party. He was not at all satisfied when they told him that my motorhome did not and should not be of his concern. I have poor health and a bad heart problem so I would rather he found a harmless hobby.

Great video guys, I pulled a T T for years when my husband was no longer able to drive it, he taught me well and so much of his teaching was just like what you talked about , a lot of people don’t realize how much you have to pay attn, have fun and stay safe, thanks guys

Great tips! Every day I learn more by driving-my recent one was taking a dip that I should never had done.

Many thanks for this video which helped me get the confidence to drive our new Class A which we purchased just before Thanksgiving. With our previous Class C motorhome, my husband did most of the driving, and I did a little from time to time. Not really very hard. When we considered going to a Class A motorhome, one of the musts for me was confidence that both of us could drive it safely. Also, since we have Texas drivers licenses, we needed to get non-CDL Class B licenses (there is a written test and driving test). In addition to the book recommended in the video, we took an afternoon of driving lessons which was very helpful. Both me and my husband passed our driving tests last Thursday! We now share the driving which has been terrific.

Great tips, here in California we have some big hills the exhaust brake is a big help. Wind is really not an issue with air suspension. I am 38' and usually tow a 18' car trailer so usually don't go over 60, 55 is the limit when towing in CA but the Semi's usually do 60-63.

Tailswing is definitely something people are not aware of , great video!

I've been around buses for many years off and on. I even drove the gray dog a short time. Finally purchased a 45 ft conversion model. After all the experiences of learning and researching the skills of a professional driver and that includes a motorhome driver the one thing I find that is overlooked no pun intended..... is eyes and head and ears on a swivel. It's easy to get comfortable while cruising down the road but easier to forget to look turn and listen in any direction. I've had my moments of wake up calls and quickly realize it's not a game. Drive safely stay alert and create good habits to arrive with a smile on your face!!! Thanks for the great tips Love the videos!!!!

Weather you are a car ,bus ,truck,tractor trailer or anything else, you should ALWAYS BE AWARE OF YOUR SURROUNDINGS. Most people are not and that’s the reason there are accidents.

Fantastic video! Thanks for the tips! New Jersey roads aren't exactly wide. And I can't even imagine having to maneuver a Class A RV on the dreaded 'jug handles' that the state is famous for.

Was afraid at first but it was much shorter than heading north all the on i 81 to i84. Love your tips. Only driving an A since this past March.

The thing that surprised me the most driving our Class A motorhome on our maiden voyage was the air pressure from a passing semi tractor trailer. It literally moved me over a couple of inches and then I had to compensate. I knew right away a steering stabilizer was our next upgrade. Got to our destination OK dealing with the air pressure but had to reduce our speed. A couple of times I got in the middle lane and passing trucks moved me in both directions (very scary), so I learned to only be in the right lane. After mentioning this issue to a fellow RV, he suggested that I accelerate as the trucks passed by. This worked but I had to keep a eye on my rear view mirror for passing trucks. Since then I did install a steering stabilizer.

Me: Class A CDL holder, drive whole ass semi trucks with 53’ trailers. Also me: “how to drive class a motor home”

Height? Before you ever drive it on a trip. Something very easy, put a long board 2x2 on top of the highest point, tape in place with a tape measure at the other end. Lower the tape measure take the reading. Then? print it out, laminate it, tape it, or command strip it it to the dash, you now have the height right in front of you all the time. Another easy one for height, load a distance app on your smartphone, you can then measure the height of tree limbs etc before you ever pull in to the camping site. Longer stopping? Braking Distance in a 40 to 50 foot RV at 55 miles per hour ads another 4.5 seconds. That is a total of 6 seconds and a stopping distance of 500 feet at 55 miles per hour. At 65 the distance is more than 600 feet! And even longer if you are traveling faster than 65! The average car at 60? 105 to 120 ft. Also - this might sound funny, but many good instructions in and old movie. The Long Long Trailer, just watch what they do wrong and learn while laughing! (works with motorhomes too.

I love your videos, great info, however, I disagree with the mph on the highway. Making a sudden stop at 60 and making a sudden stop at 70 or 75 makes a huge difference. Remember, if you have to break full force at any speed, a toaster on the cupboard is going to fly at you relatively at the same speed. What happens? I would not want to guess. As you said, driving a motorhome is far different than driving a car. A 45' diesel pusher making a full force stop at 60 and 75, I would say a prayer. I have motorhomed since 1986, having seen disastrous accidents because of speed. Slow down, you should not be in a hurry when your behind the wheel of your coach.

Great tips and while I have driven cars that are land yachts like a 18 foot Caddy, this is different league. My wife and I have talk about if a motorhome becomes a reality. While I would be the primary driver, she could do it if the need arises.

I drive on average between 60-70 mph.depends on the road, weather, wind...seems to keep traffic and me happy..happy rving!!

Excellent! In addition to knowing the height, width, and weight I always tell folks you need to know the speed rating on your tires. My coach is equipped with Michelin tires rated at 75mph. I believe some Toyo tires are rated at 81mph. Your tip about driving below 70 is spot on if for no other reason your tires can blow because they're not designed for high speed. Towable tires, particularly those that come standard with the towable have lower speed ratings.

Thank you we Enjoy your videos and the information you share with us. It helped me purchase the motorhome we have today. If I may share a helping hint for you. When I was watching your video I heard a rattle when you were driving down the road and hit rough pavement. I found the main culprit in my motor home comes from the screen door vibrating against the outside door. It’s very easy to resolve. What I did was I placed self adhesive weatherstripping directly on the outside perimeter of the screen door. Basically it’s between the screen door and the outside door but placed on the outside perimeter of the screen door. It creates a tight seal and stops the rattle/vibration that you hear in the background close to 100% quieter going down the road. I hope this helps you and any of your viewers who have this issue. Safe travels.

I have pulled a38 foot fifth wheel all over the country and on snowy roads but we are getting a38 for motor coach and I am terrified of driving it!

I will soon be getting a 1991 22 foot long Fleetwood Flair Class A Motorhome. It's going to be a bit different for me to get used to operating a flat nosed Motorhome. The 22 foot length will not be as much of an issue for me, because I actually drive a 38 foot long, 12 foot high, 8 foot wide School Bus for a living. I still have to watch my tail swing, wide right turns, weight, height, and width. This will be a new adventure for me.

We have a 31” foot Winnebago Minnie Winnie class C we just picked up from a freind of ours with 37,000 original miles and it’s a 2001 and we just took our first trip from Miami to Gainsville Florida and it was a little stressful for me driving it. The suspension feels a little bouncy in the front and also when large trucks went past me sometimes I would change lanes a little bit I don’t know if I need to replace the steering stabilizer or do some type of upgrade to the suspension

Speed rating of your tires should be checked first time
