Welcome aboard! You're gonna love it, and the purpose of this forum is to help you love the whole TM camping experience.
Gotchas and tips? Wow, that covers about everything on this board. My best suggestion is to simply start at the top of each forum, scroll down through the topic names, and read anything and everything that looks to be of interest.
A good place to start is the TM Reference Library - formally named TM Info You Won't Find Anywhere Else (hate that name!). There are a number of concise tutorials about many of the aspects of the Trail Manor, including most of the appliances, and a lot about towing equipment. It is always available to everyone.
I know there is a lot to see. That's why we try to keep the thread topics meaningful. No NEED SOME HELP! titles - they are meaningless when you are trying to find something. And we try to constrain each thread to a single topic. If you have specific questions or topics of interest, consider using the Search tool. It takes some practice, but it will help you find a lot of information about any topic - the awning, for example.
And of course, you will want to become a Forum Sponsor, so that you don't lose access to the heart of the forum in 30 days.
