We spent most of spring 2022 in the Mid-Atlantic region camping in a bunch of campgrounds from KOA to free boondocking.
We had not been in the snow for a very long time and never camping.

I installed a RV sewer pipe carrier on the back bumper of our 2018 Thor Axis. We don't have much room in the exterior storage compartments so moving the sewer pipe was a great option as it is one of the biggest (and grossest) items we carry.
It is a pretty simple project. I did it the "easy"way just drilling holes and screwing directly into the steel bumper - there are more secure options but it is very light and I used "safety wires" just in case.
We recently stress tested it with 10 miles on a washboard dirt road and it passed with no issues.
This is what I used:

Shangri-La State Park was a very relaxed campground located in Ocala Florida. This is a horse park and many of the campers bring their horses and riding gear.

After leaving Yellowstone National Park we spent the next 10 days camping in Wyoming. I loved being in the mountains – the weather was great cool nights and nice days. Our Ford F-250 diesel did an awesome job moving us up and down the mountains. The truck had no problem pulling our heavy duty trailer – I on the other hand was a bit freaked out by some of the narrow winding roads.
Our first stop was Wapiti campground between Yellowstone and Cody WY. We didn’t have reservations but got lucky and got a beautiful spot with electric and a great view of the red rocks. The area had great hiking. We didn’t have any internet or cell service but I did see my first Starlink internet RVer camped there.

This is how we spent Aug 2021. We left Oregon and took 20 days and 920 miles to get to West Yellowstone.
We visited with some friends in Montana, saw a bear run across the road, got stuck in some trees and found a nice free camping location.
We are still learning how to best utilize our Outdoors RV 28DBS.
Two things we don't like are:
The external propane connection for the grill. It is right on the tank and and threaded. Our Thor Axis was on the side under the awning and was a quick disconnect.
The slide cover - it is almost 14 feet long and collects rain water. I am not sure much can be done about that one.

Is a smooth ride worth $1,000 ?
We install front and rear Hellwig stabilizer bars and the Safe T Plus steering Stabilizer to find out.
Spoiler alert: YES
BE SURE ALL BOLTS ARE TIGHTENED CORRECTLY - a stripped nut can happen easily - I know of 2 people this happened to.
