  • Flashlights, lighters, rec gas for generator, golf carts quads etc rope always, axe/hatchet/splitter, shovel was mentioned I think l. Hammocks are awesome.

  • You don't need RV toilet paper, just any paper that says septic safe. Actually some of those work better than the "RV" TP.

  • Great vid. You missed #1 – Coffee Maker.

  • I see that you have one, but you failed to mention the clear 45° fitting for the camper end of your sewer hose. Clear because you need to see whether the liquid is clear (clean) and when the flow is completely finished. Wouldn't hurt to also have a 30A female to 50A male adapter in case there's a problem with the pedestal. I've encountered this twice at campgrounds.

  • Thanks for this. We're considering the idea, and you have been very helpful.

  • Great video! You have a really great list here. It's funny that I have that same Rigid bag for my rv tools and always carry a lot of tools with me just in case… Over the years, we've fixed or replace water pumps, hitches, stabilizer jacks, roof antenna, replace batteries, and many other some things. I tell people you are dragging your home through a tornado, hurricane and earthquake all at the same time, expect stuff to break. I must add that you need a good way to communicate to your partner when backing up. Either cell phones (if you have a signal) or 2 way radios. Our first adventure with our new rig, we almost backed over a young girl who was playing tag with her friends. She tripped and fell behind out trailer as I was backing into a campsite. It was almost dark out and thankfully we were using 2 way radios and my wife was able to tell me to STOP. That girl's life was saved by using 2way radios.

  • That hitch lock can be broken pretty easy with a pipe. I use a quick disconnect hitch unless you also have one you can't tow my rig.

  • Do not buy RV toilet paper there are videos out there showing you how they never break up like they say it does. The videos actually show Scotts RV to be the worst toilet paper for not breaking down. There are many videos on this and the RV toilet paper costs a lot more and works the least https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ceCdXandlLU

  • Change the white hose to a shrinking hose.. They work just as well and they take up a lot less space. And use a water pressure regulator with a guage. That way you can set the pressure you need.

  • Great information. I’m a newbie and this was vert very helpful. Thank you!

  • I bet that hitch lock can be raked opened so It's probably no better than using a zip tie.

  • You comment about a battery charger or solar.
    We have 400 watts of panels But when moochdocking at my daughters our spot is too shady and her 15amp outlet won't handle our converter so a small charger is enough.

  • Shark bite couplings (1/2”) and rechargeable hazard lights good

  • Ensure your tire pump services pressures higher than you trailer tires, many are only fit for truck and car tires!

  • Open a bag of charcoal when storing or in areas not open to the air as often( trunk, storage units, stored items).Works wonders when it comes to absorbing mildew smells. Dollar tree moisture absorbing little containers work very well, for $1, too.

  • I can't find your video on winter camping.

  • #16&17 has been debunked by the experts and independent tests. Regular Scott dissolves better and faster than the rv version.
    Repairman everywhere say don't put anything in the black tank that diesnt come out of you or is water….plenty of water. #1 reason the sensors fail is the additives.
    Just saying… 😉
