Hey there. We bought our Stratus used from a dealer that took it in on consignment so I don't even think they were a dealer that specializes in venture RV's. I have downloaded the owners manual but since my hubby and I are absolute newbys to the Rving life I was wondering if there are user guides/ manuals for the items in the RV? And if so where would I find them( Tried Googling it but was unsuccessful) If anyone has insight plz let me know. Thanks!!

In general I would recommend talking to a friend that's been camping for years. You could also look at 'POCKET BEGINNERS GUIDE TO RV LIVING: Tips & Tricks I Wish I Knew Earlier'. There are a number of similar titles. I have not needed any of these, yet, as I grew up camping...
You might even want to set up a weekend camping trip with your friends. Camp next to them for a weekend, and they'll be able to help you out. In general Campers will always help new campers. So, no worries! Happy camping!

Make a list of the components you need manuals for and post. That's about all that are in the Owner's Package anyway, is the component manuals since there are no technical writers to make an "as built" manual. It may help to know what year your Stratus is.

Welcome and Congratulations Here's a link that may be of use www.venture-rv.com/self-service-support.htmlI downloaded all of the component manuals from the manufacture, usually with the model and serial #s of each individual component you can find them. |

Welcome and congratulations on your new to you coach. I'll ditto the advice from the others.
The internet and forums like this are great sources for your information whether from a fellow owner or product website. There are owner manuals for just about anything in your rig available to download for the specific product you are looking for. I have been able to fill the gaps that way if I lost or didn't get the manual with the product. Good hunting!

Welcome lexiandtom. Here is a website that will get you going with spec sheets, facts and all kinds of data about your trailer.
I have also added the VENTURE STRATUS OWNERS manual. If you need more info, just use the net and search. I have compiled a complete manual set and drawings for my SONIC on PDF or electronic data. Its always in my phone which is better than looking for it in a box or old envelope. |

Where would the drawings for the Venture RVs be available? I see nothing on the Venture website. |

Welcome to camp life! Great ideas from everyone! I would also try YouTube. I am always amazed at how many ‘How to” videos I can find.
