We have been full timing in our new 2018 Solitude 375res for a month and a half now. We have been RVing for ever but are truly green at full timing and have much to learn. We are starting to meet a lot of good folks that have been full timing for a while and have been getting a lot of good advice. We are heading to Moab in a couple of week (4th of July) and hope to keep the adventure going. We have reservations to stay in AZ for next winter and hope to travel the US coast to coast next summer. We hope to stay at it until it becomes more work than fun at which time we will find a place we like and park it.

We've been full time for 4+ years, 3+ have been in our 2014 Solitude 369RL. Sold the VT house in May of 2013 and haven't looked back, Dave was fully retired in 2015. We workamp some of the time. We're currently at Lake Shelbyville COE until 9/15/17, we will then travel for 6 weeks as we move ourselves to Cave Creek AZ where we will once again volunteer for the winter. We love the lifestyle and hope to do it for many years to come. We've made some great friends in the full time rv community and look forward to making many more.

Hi Steve, We are new to full time RVing. Traveling in a 5th wheel Solitude, 42 ft.. Left Atlanta and made our first mistake of spending this summer in Florida. Just left St. Augustine, FL., now in Orlando (HOTTTT). Making our way to Key West, FL. for the holidays. We plan on traveling the country for the next 5-6 years.
Currently Staying at Wekiva RV Resort outside of Sanford, FL. Fantastic park. Were off the grid and loving it. We don't go on vacation, We live on vacation.....
We have just Discovered a "Out of Stroke Error" when Auto Leveling our coach. Any ideas or suggestions?????

Sounds like one (or more) jacks can not extend far enough to level the camper - most likely very unlevel ground. Try placing some wood blocks under the jack to see if it can then raise the camper to level.

Reposition the camper to more level ground. Extreme case - dig out a section so the legs can reach more extension. Or, as suggested earlier, use blocks to give a closer landing point.
The "Out of Stroke" error happens because the legs cannot extend to a stable position, or they have fully extended and cannot reach a level point.
We've had it happen a couple of times. Blocks solved the issue 90% of the time. Once we simply repositioned the whole camper.
Good luck!

Got it gentleman,
You guys are a life saver. Going 2 home depot and have boards cut to put under the legs to assist with leveling.
We were told at check in that it has been raining here everyday and the grounds are muddy and soft. All makes sense now.
Thanks for sharing, your the best!

Well, just as it's really begun the Full-Time experience comes to an unexpected end.
But, we're still out here...travelling when we can.
