I know it may be a little early for this thread, but I just got my first trailer so I am pretty pumped for camping season.

Just a couple questions for you seasoned vets out there...We live in an apartment and have no way to fill our trailer with water. If I go to my parents the outside tap is pretty far away so I would most likely need to use some green garden hose along with my white fresh water hose. Is this going to give me that garden hose taste in the water, or will that go away? Should I just go buy some extra white hose?

When I de-winterize the trailer is this the correct process...I fill up the fresh water tank, turn on the water pump, then I turn on all the cold and hot taps until it runs clear (and flush the toilet). When all the taps/toilet run clear I can fill the water heater correct? I have a plug on the outside by the furnace that I have to put in I believe, is there anything else I have to do? Once I have put the plug in turn on the hot water taps and wait until all the air is out, then that means the hot water tank is full and I can turn on the hot water heater? I don't want to wreck the element in the water heater and I was told if you turn that on when the tank is empty you will blow it.
