I'm new here. I'm Jeff. Can someone teach me the ins & outs in posting. I just bought a 2009 Pleasant Valley 5x8 teardrop. I want to start by adding curtains to my teardrop. Any helpful hints or photos out there?

Thanks, Jeff

Sorry. The rules clearly state that before any help can be given, :pictures: must first be posted for our pleasure and satisfaction when someone has purchased a brand new teardrop.

:lol:

Welcome to the forum and congrats on your purchase! :applause: :clapping hands: :thumbs up1:

Exhaust our search button for a large history of curtains in addition to the responses you will surely get here. I have a LG 6-wide with carpeting on the walls, so my curtains are mounted with velcro strips hot glued on. I don't think your Pleasant Valley has carpeted walls, but it's an easy job if you do.

You're right--there are a number of curtain-related threads in here. Curtains are important! Here are a couple of examples of threads:

and

Use the Search thingy up top just under the big headline for the site and search curtains. Lots of info and ideas. Welcome to the forum!

Yes. Do not attempt to put your entire post text in to a colored bold font.

We thank you.



:lol:


Seriously, though...

Welcome to T&TTT! :P

Read yer arse off! There's an incredible amount of information here about every single aspect of teardropping, and camping in general, too!

Enjoy yourself! and post some pictures soon! (Get someone local to you to show you how; it's easier when taught to do so in person...)


:thumbsup:
