A house and a vehicle in one - track both sides

An RV is a house bolted to a truck. The engine side needs oil changes, transmission service, tire rotations, and brake work like any vehicle. The house side needs roof inspections, seal checks, water system maintenance, propane system testing, and appliance service. Most vehicle maintenance apps only handle the engine side.

LookOver tracks both. Set engine oil reminders by miles, roof seal inspections by date, generator service by hours, and water system sanitization before each season. All in one place, all on one machine profile.

If your RV has a built-in generator, it has its own hour meter and its own service schedule. Oil changes, air filters, spark plugs, and exercise cycles all need tracking independently from the main engine. Most generators need running at least once a month even when stored, to keep seals lubricated and fuel circulating.

LookOver tracks generator hours separately. Set oil changes at every 100-150 hours, air filters at every 200 hours, and monthly exercise reminders during storage. The generator keeps your RV comfortable on the road. Keep the generator maintained and it keeps working when you need it.

Roof leaks are the most expensive problem an RV owner can face. Water intrusion damages walls, floors, framing, and electrical systems. The fix is simple: inspect seals and caulking regularly, catch cracks early, and reseal before water gets in.

LookOver sets time-based reminders for roof inspections. Quarterly checks during the season, plus a thorough inspection before winter storage. Log each inspection with photos of seal condition. When you spot a crack or gap, you have a photo timeline showing when it started.

RVs that sit for winter need comprehensive winterization: drain water systems, add antifreeze to plumbing, disconnect batteries, cover tires, seal openings against rodents. In the spring, the process reverses with sanitization, system checks, and re-commissioning.

Build both checklists in LookOver and reuse them each year. Log each step as you go. When spring arrives, open the de-winterization checklist and work through it. No searching YouTube for "how to de-winterize my RV" for the fifth year in a row.

RV tires are unique in that they often age out before they wear out. Many RVs sit more than they drive, and rubber degrades over time regardless of tread depth. Most tire manufacturers recommend replacement every 5-7 years regardless of appearance or mileage.

LookOver tracks tire install dates alongside mileage. Set a 5-year age reminder in addition to your mileage-based replacement interval. Whichever comes first triggers the reminder. Don't find out about old tires through a blowout on the interstate.

If you tow a car behind your motorhome (a "toad"), that vehicle has its own maintenance needs during long-distance towing. Transmission considerations, tire wear, and brake systems all need attention. Add the toad as a separate machine in LookOver and track it alongside the motorhome.
