Newbie: 5.0TA unhitching, leveling, chocking video?

Hi all,

I am looking for a video showing the process to set up an Escape 5.0TA at a campsite (for example). I've read the manual which has some information about chocks and jacks and leveling and stabilizers and bits of 2x6 wood, but nothing very visual. I didn't see anything on the Escape youtube channel - they all seem to be done in the showroom.

Have any of you come across a video showing the arrival process from stopping the vehicle to opening your first Yuengling? I've seen some helpful backup-a-trailer videos, and the recent hitching ball condom post with photos was helpful at the truck side of things, but nothing seems obvious about the rest of the trailer parking and departure.

This is all part of my newbie research to get into the towed RV world. I have never towed anything so this is all new to me.

Thanks!!!
