Does Your RV Need a Little Freshening Up?

When it comes to your RV each scrape, dent, and scuff is almost like a badge of honor documenting an adventure or special trip. But there comes a time when every RV ends up on the wrong side of time. If your RV is getting up there in age (and wear and tear) it might be time to consider an upgrade. While many prefer to just buy something new, like one of the many travel trailers we have for sale, there is another option. Let the pros at Sky River RV help! Instead of trading in your well-traveled RV, our service department can help you freshen it up.

Here are some of the current upgrades we are offering:

Upgrade Existing Flooring

Few changes can make an impact on the overall appearance of your RV as much as upgrading the flooring. Our factory-trained technicians can help you select a new flooring option and install it for you, breathing new life into your home away from home.

Upgrade Window Coverings

While many RVs come with top of the line blinds and shades that last for years, they do still eventually fall victim to wear and tear (don't we all?). If the blinds/shades in your RV are looking a little more bohemian than chic maybe it's time for an upgrade. We can help you explore your options and pick the perfect upgrade to meet your needs.

Upgrade existing entry steps to the fold-down Morryde steps

If you're tired of feeling the extra spring in your step when you enter or exit your RV, it might be time for an upgrade. RVers rave about the stability of MORryde fold-down steps. Not only will they feel more solid, but they extend out further than the standard steps. This makes it easier when opening the door to go in your RV and for children coming into the RV. https://youtu.be/1QuQUkq0MRo

Add stabilizer jacks

Depending on the use and layout of your rig, you may find yourself wanting a little something more when it comes to stabilizers. For example, certain models may benefit from adding stabilizer jacks. It's a simple solution to help ease any additional movement you feel once you've set up camp.

Upgrade lighting to LED

There are plenty of reasons why you should consider upgrading your RV lighting to LEDs. They tend to put off a brighter light while using less energy. On average, you can get 7 years out LEDs before needing to replace them. And, the bulbs withstand travel better which is exactly what you want in your RV.

Upgrade existing mattress to new

A good night's sleep is always important, even on the road. One of the benefits of having an RV is being able to have your own bed to sleep in instead of a hotel bed or an air mattress in a tent. How often you replace your mattress may vary based on how often you sleep in your RV. But if you find your mattress uncomfortable every time you're sleeping in your RV, it's time for an upgrade.

Install electric tongue jack to replace manual

If you've reached the point of being sick and tired of cranking your manual jack up and down then this is the perfect time to upgrade to an electric tongue jack. While you only use it when setting up or tearing down camp, it's obviously an important piece of your camping experience. There's no reason to get frustrated from the start of setting up camp when you can remove much of the manual labor and start enjoying your site faster.

Add slide topper awnings

If your RV has slides and it didn't come with slide awnings, this is a great upgrade to add in order to protect your RV. The awnings pull out to protect your slide from rainfall and debris. This can help keep things in good working shape by protecting seals from potential damage sparing you from dealing with things like leaks.

Take advantage of this time to upgrade your RV

If you're laying low during the current quarantines, it's a great time to upgrade your RV if you're not using it anyway. Our service department is open and ready to help you get your RV ready so as soon as you can hit the road you can enjoy your experience even more than you already do. And, we can also help you with repairs and bodywork. So, if you've been putting off having some work done on your RV,  give us a call today!
