This week’s episode combines holiday fun with practical RV education, making it one of our most entertaining and useful shows of the year! In Episode 147, we’re covering: ❄️ FLORIDA RV WINTERIZATION CHECKLIST Even though Florida doesn’t experience the harsh winters of northern states, winterizing your RV in the Sunshine State is still important—especially if you're storing your rig, heading north, or preparing for seasonal temperature drops. Here are three sample items we cover from our full RV winterization guide: ✔️ 1. Protect Your Water System From Temperature Swings While Florida rarely freezes, overnight cold snaps still happen. We walk through: Draining the water heater Bypassing the heater correctly Protecting lines if traveling north ✔️ 2. Seal &amp;amp; Inspect All Exterior Points Heat, humidity, and salt air can weaken seals. Larry explains how to: Inspect caulking Check roof membrane Protect vents and slide toppers This prevents leaks before winter storms roll through. ✔️ 3. Prep Your RV for Storage or Light Use Even if you're still camping during winter, you should: Clean AC filters Treat fuel if storing Test smoke/CO detectors Add moisture absorbers to prevent mildew These simple steps keep your RV healthy all winter long—Florida-style. 🎅 “’TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE RV-MAS” — STARRING SANTA LARRY In true holiday spirit, Larry delivers a fun and festive reading of our RV twist on the classic Christmas poem.
