How difficult is it to winterize a travel trailer camper?

The kids and I would like to get a "travel trailer" camper under 30 feet. We think camping on the weekends would be fun. My hubby thinks it is just another hassle and says he does not want to mess with winterizing it, upkeep etc. Could I get some input from others that have campers, basically is it a pain the butt to own one, or worth it? Please tell me the positives and negatives. Thank you!!How difficult is it to winterize a travel trailer camper?
Winterizing a trailer is very simple. There are two methods. One is by forcing all of the liquid out of the system by pressure or the more common method is by purchasing 10 gallons of RV antifreeze at WalMart or somewhere similar. It's pink in color. Typically in trailers you have 3 tanks. Fresh water, black water (sewage) and grey water (from the sinks). You add 9 gallons of winterizer to your water tank. Turn on the pump and run all the faucets and the toilet till pink runs from them. Shut them off. With the last bottle of winterizer, add a quart down the toilet and flush it. Add a quart down the kitchen drain(s) and bathroom drain. That's it. You are winterized. Very simple. When spring comes, drain the antifreeze from all tanks. Thoroughly flush the fresh water tank and pump through lines thoroughly before using water for drinking. Also, before you winterize, make sure your grey tank and black tank are empty and closed. It's very simple. Tell your lazy husband to go buy you a trailer and go have fun with your family. :-) LOL All in good humor. Good luck!



PS. The fun you get out of a travel trailer, in my opinion, is well worth the maintenance it needs. They don't require an awful lot of maintenance. A good wash once a year and cleaning it after camping. Anything you own requires maintenance. My best memories are growing up and going camping. It's worth it. Go get one. You can find a lot of nice used ones on Craig's list.
