As a full time RVer and stay at trailer mom I can't get enough of my electric skillet. It's roughly the size of a extra large baking dish and can bake, fry, roast, saute...etc. We save on propane and I can move it out when we want meals outside; plus being able to "other than grill" outside helps keep the heat out of the trailer. Huge plus on the Texas coast with 3 guys and 5 dogs. All heaters. LOL
I haven't bought an RV yet but channels like yours are giving me SO MUCH information that I would never have thought about!! Thanks for taking the time to share your experiences!!
Wow - I’ve watched a ton of RV Vlogger’s “Must Have” list videos but was by far the most powerful one with all the various voices & opinions focused on what others might not think about. Thank you - great help! Love to see you do a similar one focused on camp set up/tear down lists - Rob
@@todayissomeday They also make the 6 inch short hose section w/ the spring on it.. I use it on the water filter.. and the right angle on the RV connection.. lol. that is 5 pieces of equipment to get pressure water into your coach.. including the water pressure regulator..
What I think is a must have for an RV is a good quality, small vacuum that gets into all the small places in an RV, and is cordless so you can go anywhere in your RV to vacuum up all the crap you drag inside from all the different places you travel to, which ain't clean if your an outdoors person that most RV'ers are, Lol My pick is the Dyson V8 Animal Pro Cordfree Vacuum with HEPA and Cleaning Tools, the best RV vacuum you will ever need, hands down, and I've used them all with no good luck, until I got the Dyson's powerful suction that even sucks up animal hair with ease About $350,but well worth it, lemme tell ya!
Thank you so much for these great tips! All the couples look like they have a healthy relationship. It's a prerequisite to live 24 hours in a small space.
ONE our “must haves” is our NOAA weather radio! Living and camping in Wyoming, the weather is always changing and our radio keeps up updated on what is going on. We have had alerts for thunderstorms and even a couple of tornadoes. Fishing is important to us and it lets us know that “Today is the Day” 😊 go out and wet a line! Keep up with your wonderful videos! I’ve enjoyed them very much!
Couple points; ... 1)have heard from a number of rv'ers that tried to have both that the "signals" from their portable weather station disrupts the "signals" from the tpms so proper readings/warnings aren't possible any longer 2) the proper "name" for the Big Buddy &/or Little Buddy heaters is "Mr. Heater" so if anyone doesn't follow your links they can still find them
I saw your comments in the You me and RV video of must have gagets where you mentioned the Rhinoblaster. Here is an other great video to watch regarding eliminating and keeping tank smells out of your RV. A real game changer as it is more effective and cheaper than the typical commercial products available. The name of the TH-cam channel that I mentioned above on great methods to clean black and grey tanks. It is TR Bolin the video is from a year ago titled "RV How To - Easily get rid of black tank smells in your RV!"
I have been camping all my life and RV'ing for over 20 years. This was the best video to date! I loved the interviews with actual rv owners and the real life suggestions! Eveyone with an rv should watch this!
An honest and solid checklist for each evolution, pre departure, departure/wheels up, arrival, setup/wheels down. As a pilot they have saved my bacon more than I'd like to admit.
A couple good long-range hand-held GMRS or FRS radios are a necessity, especially when backing a rig into a campsite. The assistant outside the RV can relay directions etc to the driver. Plus they're good for overall use in the campground, especially if cell phone signals are poor.
All good ideas and things we have had in the past, but the most important thing when you purchase that new to you RV that you must have, compatibility! It's a must or nothing works! lol
There are a lot of "must-haves" for RVing. My no 1 is a good external surge protector. Many of the built in ones don't have an automatic reset and some have to be replaced before you use electric again. I highly recommend a NOAA weather alert radio. The apps depend on NOAA and any delay can be deadly. We've gotten weather alert on apps after the weather had already hit us.

One thing if you are going to do a lot of off the grid rving is a small generator ,900watts, in case you drain all power and can not start your regular generator, or motor home. Not necessary if you are towing car. But you need some thing to jump start your system.
Use a split charge system. Dedicated Start battery and dedicated House battery(s). The split-charger charges the Start battery first and when done switches to the House battery. So you can never drain the start battery. Problem solved and it's fully automatic.
Right on! Very important to have to avoid getting caught dead in the water as boaters would say. The small 1000 watt will power everything except ac and microwave. $120 - get one with 12v charger built in. Seems that everyone is plugged in but if you can get off the grid and on dc you'll stretch your money a lot. 50 cents worth of gas in a small generator will charge batteries for 2 hours.
Not sure if it is a favorite thing or not, but safety is and should be a priority for everyone. When did you last check your fire extinguishers? Smoke and CO2 detectors?.. Most RV's have a fire extinguisher, but most do not have a gauge on them to show if they are fully charged. Be safe, go and buy one that does!
It is always a concern. We reviewed all the safety measures we have taken with the RV in our 1 year review. It includes purchasing foam fire extinguishers for the rig and placing them throughout. Thanks for the info.
Another great video! We had a C class for 5 years and have had our A class for 5.5 years and one thing we got early on not mentioned in your video is a propane Extend-a-Stay kit. We live close to Ottawa, ON, Canada and there are not as many places that fill onboard propane tanks so this was crucial. It allows you to use portable tanks instead of your onboard. It also allows you to connect small grills that use a 1lb tank so it can use your onboard (never used it that way though). I worked in Atlanta, GA for a year while living in rv and in the winter I just refilled the portable tanks. It would have sucked to have had to move the RV!!
Definitely!!! I did an entire video on this. You can use it to connect the 20lb exchange tanks to fixed frame mounted that require you to drive the motorhome to refuel the propane.
I have come to find the Fire Disc Cooker fills all my cooking needs while camping to include grilling, sautéing, frying, etc. Built to Haul, Cooks it All.
Portable inflator saves a lot of headache when you need to adjust tire pressure. Milwaukee, DeWalt, and Craftsman have great portable inflators. I also keep a good bottle jack rated for more than what our travel trailer weighs (travel trailers do not come with a jack).
Great video. Even though I only heard it mentioned one time a back up camera system is a must no matter what size RV or camper you have. And I will also add a good set of maps because the GPS is going to be wrong a lot of times and of course you need to know how to read those maps. With our older generation that’s pretty common but the younger generation has no clue.
I've been doing research to build a custom rig in a 32 foot enclosed cargo trailer. There's one thing that I didn't see on this video that I've heard is really a great addition, and that I intend on installing in my own rig. A diesel heater! It produces dry heat, so there's no need to remove excess humidity in your rig. If you're in a trailer you can use a removable tank designed for things like small boats and whatnot or mount a tank and fill port, and if you're in a drivable RV that runs on diesel you have the option of having the heater pull from your main tank. You can easily get more fuel without moving your rig using a basic gas can. As a nice cherry on top, heating with diesel is cheaper based on national average prices because diesel has more BTU's of energy per gallon than propane does, meaning less fuel is needed to produce the same amount of heat.
I agree that a surge protector is one of the most important. Before I ever went camping I bought one. I am looking at a TPMS because I suck at checking tire pressure. One of these would give me peace of mind. Great video!
A BROOM!!! Even if you have an onboard vacuum set up. A broom is faster and easier for 90% of the time. :) My BONUS $$ must get is MAGNE SHADE!!! OMG! Incredible how much heat it keeps out of your RV!! Makes no AC tolerable and when you do use it, it works so much less! Not cheap, but you'll be glad you did it!
Some Home Depot's have a bay for mobile home's & RV's. Usually on the heat and air aisle adjacent to plumbing aisle. Most of the TH-cam top ten items for new campers are here cheaper than Amazon.
6:27 is hands down the best part of this video. Laura is so matter of fact and Terry plays so well off of it with his wittiness. “Hospital on wheels” 🤣 Definitely going to subscribe to them!
Great tip about putting the date on your water filter. I date other things when I open them but I had not thought about the water filter. See, even and old dog like me can learn a new trick or two! Good suggestions from everyone.
We have a Mr. Buddy heater that I had to use during a season of life rebuilding in an incredibly drafty apartment. They are rated for indoor use. I always knew that I kept it for a reason!!😊 future FT rv life!!
I'd say our hotspot and wifi service is our #1 must have gadget. Happy wife, happy life. Or should I say, no TV, no wife. We couldn't agree more on the Mimo antenna. We have the same one. It will only work if your hotspot has antenna ports though. We have the FCMAs AT&T $60/mo. unlimited plan, but the little hotspot that they provided free with the plan didn't have antenna ports, so we purchased a reconditioned Netgear Nighthawk MR1100 hotspot that has antenna them. It works great in 95% of the places we go - and we go to some remote places, deep in the mountains. We have a couple of the regular size Mr. Heater Buddy heaters (one for back-up - BTW always carry back-ups of your critical components) that we might use a couple times a year, as we try to avoid snow at all costs. It is plumbed into our motorhome's propane system, and we have an Extend-a-Stay kit (highly recommended) that allows us to use the 20lb portable tanks in addition to the big tank on our MH. We never use our furnace anymore now that we have our heat pump and big solar/battery system, only using our Buddy heater if it gets below freezing. This is the big one, as we boondock almost exclusively. We full time in our motorhome but haven't plugged into a power pedestal in over a year and a half. We have 4,400 watts of solar on our roof and another 620-watt liftable solar array on the side of our motorhome, that makes a nice bedroom window awning. We have both a 560ah 12v battery and a 320ah 48v battery for a total of 23.5kwh of LiFePo-4 battery power onboard (the equivalent of 18, 100ah Battleborns) that we built ourselves from prismatic cells for a tiny fraction of the price. We are able to run everything in our RV, including both A/Cs while charging our batteries at the same time. We can run our 12k EG-4 mini split 24/7 if needed in both cooling and heating mode, sparing our propane use. This has allowed us to replace our old propane fridge with a residential one, doubling the capacity and saving us about a pound of propane a day. Though we love using Reflectix in our coach's windshield, we don't recommend using inside of dual pane windows as the heat builds up between the glass layers which can cause the inner seal to come lose. We had to have 5 windows repaired on our coach, as the previous owner didn't know this. In single pane windows it works great but must go outside dual pane windows. Nevertheless, it's great stuff that we wouldn't be without. One tip on the inline water filter. We use a Clear 2o prefilter, and the blue Camco filters to fill our tanks, as it makes the blue filter last longer and is cleanable, so it lasts a long time too. We learned to always attach your water pressure regulator to the spigot, with the filter after the regulator. We made the mistake of putting the filter before the pressure regulator once and the water pressure was 90psi at the spigot, which caused our Clear 2o prefilter to explode. Never again.
Great collaboration video. Even though we have a surge protector as part of the Automated Transfer Switch (ATS) in our class A, we still use a Surge protector at the power pedestal. We have it for two reasons. The first is it provides a couple of additional features beyond the built-in surge protector. The second is if there is a catastrophic power incident, we would rather have the surge protector burning at the pedestal instead of inside our power bay.
I have the snap pads also and I love them. But here is a very important note if you’re in places like Quartzsite where the ground is very uneven because of the rocks it is important to put a block of wood if some type under there because the snap pads will snap off.
For a weather station I use my wet finger. But I do have a super long range WiFi directional antenna with 36Db gain on a six foot fold-down mast connected to a high-gain repeater which allows upto 12kms line-of-sight connectivity to free WiFi or any local paid-service. This is priceless. Water filter, backup camera and RCD are an absolute must. Tyre pressure is monitored using screw-on tyre pressure caps. Cheap. When they go 'yellow' it's time to fill. We use a Solar Oven for slow cooking and a charcoal/wood BBQ for 'fun' cooking. Butane for quick meals. No high voltage AC anywhere except the dedicated charger for the batteries. No need for VAC, as everything can be run off 12VDC. The Van is insulated for the heat. One thing they all left out. You have to have a decent tool kit or very deep pockets. Great vid. Thanks for posting. BTW. I like Dianna, the Dutch girl. Might just check out their channel.
Very good video you guy's we're right along with you on most of those Items. Love how you include and promote the other channels. We will definitely check them out. We're having a lot of fun here on TH-cam and hope to see you folk's on the road and say hi. We will be going full time very shortly here as we can't take living in California any longer. I was born and raised in Orange County but I've hit my limit. God bless and safe travels to you both.
My wife and i have a freezer, it is small but gives us a way to buy more meat and frozen food. Fits in our 5th wheel, but when we are parked awhile, I put it out by my front hitch. Just saves trips to stores. Happy camping
An alternative to the Govee Digital Thermometer is a wireless cam that you can watch the pet. In our case a larger Goldendoodle. Placed in proximity of an indoor temperature and humidity sensor would also give peace of mind. You wouldn't have your warning notifications but in our case would be checking occasionally anyways. Just a thought. Thank you for your service. Retired Air Force here with two Navy sons. Go figure.
Our "Road Warrior" is currently a driveway paper weight while we wait for the kids to move out. I love watching others who have made the change to full time RV'ing...We'll see you out there soon...."Kids, Mom and Dad just sold the house.....Time to hit the road, and you are not invited."
Thank you!! We're excited for our full-time RV life, and we feel like we're getting such a head start from all these channels. This was a great list you compiled. Thanks again!!
TPMS! Had blowout on tow (Jeep) and without TPMS we would have dragged the Jeep on the rim down the Interstate. Could not feel the blowout and had no difference in driving in coach.
Ramon.....it is a Tire Pressure Monitoring System......gives you real time air pressure and temps for your tires while traveling. We love ours and don't drive without it!
@@todayissomeday It also measures the tire pressure of a vehicle you are towing? My car requires a flatbed, so I'd have to put it on a trailer to tow it. So I'd have to measure Tire Pressure of the trailer tires
Ok from all the videos that I’ve watch to learn about RVing , this is by far hands down the most informative.. thank you thank you thank you. Oh yeah thank you! 🙏
this was a great recap of all those goodies that we all really want in our RVs. It would be great if you had a link listing all of these goodies in one download. Otherwise I'm going to grab a pencil and paper and write them all down. Just a thought, but if you could do that that would be great. Keep on truckin!!!!
Zero G drinking water hose is an item we started out not having. Ran into someone that did, got their take on it. They told me that have been using theirs for over a year with no problems. They said there was a break in period of about a week to ten days. During the break in period the water taste like a garden hose. We experienced that same thing for about 8 days. I bought the 50’ length, I have seldom run into needing more than a 25’ hose, but this thing is so easy to roll up and store. Definitely one of our best things to have. #BHGT18
Lots of misinformation about the Buddy heaters out there. These are *catalytic* heaters, not the open flame ones from days of yore. I have been using one in small spaces for decades. They are safe for CO unless you are in a hermetically sealed space, which no RV is. You need to crack a vent to prevent moisture build up as the catalytic process they use creates water vapor.
Be sure your RV has a working Carbon Monoxide detector and a Propane Detector. Early models only had a Propane Detector. From our old retire fire investigator Paul Chase.
Im starting the RV life again at 66 yrs old ! Thank you for your candid approach. You guys are great ! I'm going with a 21-24' possibly Rpod. I will be hooked up for a little while to household current . Do I need the inverter as suggested in your gears list on Amazon ? I love how easy it is to make my list ! Thank You !
That is awesome Frances. It all depends on how your rig will be set up. Keep in mind you will need a way to charge whatever battery system you have. Check with the manufacturer to see how it is set up and what is needed for how you will be traveling.
It's amazing how many people ask if they really need a surge protector!! It's the same with a water pressure regulator. Without both, your talking about THOUSANDS of dollars to replace the electric and/or water lines.
You need a power management system. A surge protector doesn't do much. All the problems we've had with power were not caught by the surge protector. I finally got an EMS and I don't worry any more.
It is like a surge protector, but it is constantly testing for bad power. Low voltage, etc. I had a low voltage situation blow my power cord and it was plugged in through a regular surge protector.

I absolutely loved that blooper reel and the video as a whole. You can't find enough info on rv travel. You and changing lanes are my favorites by far but many many others that are worth listening to. Keep it up.
I will recommend you connect the water filter at the inlet rather than at the hose bib. The hose can get mold inside while in storage . Once a month I use a bleach/water mix and pour into hose to sanitize it same as you should do with fresh water tank.
Be careful, some of those electric impact wrenches over-torque the lug nuts. You're better off with a torque multiplier, and an actual torque wrench to gradually tighten them to your tires proper specifications, otherwise you risk stripping the threads, distorting brake rotors, & damaging the wheel, even possibly shearing off the lug stud.
Really depends on the size of your rig. In dealing with lugnuts daily working on cars most people over torque them anyway. Most cars are 80 to 100 lbs and pickup trucks can get up to 165 but when you get to medium duty and larger the stud size increases and so does torque. Not sure about you if I can get off the side of the road faster is safer
And semi lugnuts are torqued to 500 ft lbs so getting that set up would be a pain and I'm guessing you've never been stuck on the road with people flying by you at freeway speeds inches from your car. I drove tow truck and it's not easy
@@jimc5624 - I suppose a trailer is harder to get into a curb than a class c. And I use traffic cones and led warning triangles for safety purposes, something you should consider. Also, no need for the condescending tone. The RV community is about helping one another.
Great video and excellent information!!!! It's always good to be able to benefit from the experience of others, especially when they are as knowledgeable and trustworthy as you guys. Thanks so much and safe travels!
Great video. I would divide the items mentioned into “must haves” for any RVer, and things that will make your life easier. I’m only a weekend warrior at this point. Must haves for me are the EMS, tpms, water pressure regulator, and the snap pads. Bought all but the snap pads before we took our first trip! LOL. When we get to the point of being able to travel more, I can see where my must haves will include better internet and cooking conveniences. Love your channel. Happy travels!
We are not full timers - just vacationers. We love our cameras, behind the rig, and on both sides. We have a 37’ 5th wheel. It really helps in the backing up and changing lanes.
Everything here... that everyone is saying is GREAT... but most of the things that they're talking about... I have no idea what it is... A Picture of what you're talking about would help a lot... Please insert a picture of the items you're discussing. This is a great video... Thank you so much for sharing.
Great comment #You, Me & the RV , I don't do a lot of TH-cam, but people say "see below" referring to things on the video. I never see anything but, comments, share, like save. Obviously I am missing something ???? BTW great video, I have a number of things but that list just got loner
we are just starting to get things for our RV and the most important I think is the surge protector, I have one on order and it should be here any day.
Water pressure regulator. No matter the rig, no matter the lifestyle. You're gonna need it. Then rear view camera, especially if you have a travel trailer. Surge protector.
GENIUS!🏅Nothing is better then experience! I've had enough of pro videos instead give me real people living real lives! Subscribed and inspired thank you!
Y’all should look into gettin an adapter to fill smaller tanks from your big RV tank. You might not use it all the time but it’s good to have in a pinch.
We are in the planning stages of going full time, Researching rigs, etc now. We are current teardrop campers with experience off grid and have some of the items already. Thank You for all information.
It appears that you were squid at one time. Thank you for your service. I served from 1964 to 1968 as a corpsman mostly in the fleet Marine Force. I also see some pictures of skydiving. I attended the Army jump School in 1965. I thank you for your service and I thank you for the placement of this well-informed RV traveling messages. We are on our 10th RV and have enjoyed all of them. Most every year we travel approximately 20,000 miles doing at 3 months. In our RV. We usually make it up to see my great-great-grandfather on Prince Edward Island Canada from our home state of California. We go through my birth state of Vermont and then explore many parts of New England before we head up into Canada from Lubec Maine. We go over to Highlands of New Brunswick and on to Nova Scotia ending up on Prince Edward Island where we usually stay for 1 2 3 weeks. And one of my favorite things happens on the island in the dition to visiting my great-great grandfather's grave site is there exciting little drive-in theater. Very reminiscent of growing up in Vermont with our drive-in theaters. Well I've gone on long enough enjoy your adventures thanks for posting
Thanks for your service as well! Our Son is an active duty corpsman as well. We enjoyed our trip up to the North East area......but didn't stay as long as we would have liked. SO we will be back.
@@todayissomeday when you visit our area in Redding California, we have many interesting places to stay. One is our Elks Club and several other private campgrounds. We have space that is concrete and level if you need it. If all goes well we will start our three months adventure in July, 2020. We know from our past travels that June, July and August can be a true adventure with so many others on the highway. Many things will be contingent upon the virus and how we open our country. The virus may have much more control over our travels this summer. Our son is a executive with one of the country's largest pharmaceutical companies. He has been extremely reliable in his predictions. He predicts, in just a few weeks, we will see this virus diminished considerably. He went to UC San Diego. You may be familiar with it as a sailor. And by the way I'm very excited for your son being a Corpsman. He may get the same experience I had and spend some time as a Fleet Marine Force Corpsman. Good luck to him and your entire family.

Great informational video!! I’m not a full timer but I think a great set of 6 volt deep cycle batteries to go along with solar panels. Also the Big Buddy and I’m just now incorporating the InstaPot. It’s nice to see what everyone else is doing for a “must have”!! Thank you for your video 👍🏼👍🏼
As a medical professional it may sound odd but take a CPR course and add an AED for peace of mind not only for yourself but for others around you
Absolutely
As a full time RVer and stay at trailer mom I can't get enough of my electric skillet. It's roughly the size of a extra large baking dish and can bake, fry, roast, saute...etc. We save on propane and I can move it out when we want meals outside; plus being able to "other than grill" outside helps keep the heat out of the trailer. Huge plus on the Texas coast with 3 guys and 5 dogs. All heaters. LOL
A must for me and in this order: surge protector, tire monitor, Berkey (water), and water pressure gage.

I agree with the pizza stone to distribute heat in the camper oven, can't cook in it otherwise. Also, we use our Insta pot routinely.
Also a right angle adaptor for your fresh water hose is key. It allows ur hose to hang straight down so there’s less wear on them.
Yes, this is such a handy gadget!!
@@todayissomeday They also make the 6 inch short hose section w/ the spring on it.. I use it on the water filter.. and the right angle on the RV connection.. lol. that is 5 pieces of equipment to get pressure water into your coach.. including the water pressure regulator..
What I think is a must have for an RV is a good quality, small vacuum that gets into all the small places in an RV, and is cordless so you can go anywhere in your RV to vacuum up all the crap you drag inside from all the different places you travel to, which ain't clean if your an outdoors person that most RV'ers are, Lol
My pick is the Dyson V8 Animal Pro Cordfree Vacuum with HEPA and Cleaning Tools, the best RV vacuum you will ever need, hands down, and I've used them all with no good luck, until I got the Dyson's powerful suction that even sucks up animal hair with ease
About $350,but well worth it, lemme tell ya!
We swore by our Dyson pet vac in our sticks and bricks. We havent tried the cord free version yet.
Jim Fette
Cord free is the only way to travel with a vacuum.
I can't imagine having a cord attached all the places I take mine to vacuum in my RV.
OP
Insta pot, convection oven, coffee maker, and our George forman indoor/outdoor grill. Some of the main things we bring
Team Emortal that’s everything we take as well 😂

Right on! Very important to have to avoid getting caught dead in the water as boaters would say.
The small 1000 watt will power everything except ac and microwave. $120 - get one with 12v charger built in.
Seems that everyone is plugged in but if you can get off the grid and on dc you'll stretch your money a lot.
50 cents worth of gas in a small generator will charge batteries for 2 hours.
Not sure if it is a favorite thing or not, but safety is and should be a priority for everyone. When did you last check your fire extinguishers? Smoke and CO2 detectors?.. Most RV's have a fire extinguisher, but most do not have a gauge on them to show if they are fully charged. Be safe, go and buy one that does!
It is always a concern. We reviewed all the safety measures we have taken with the RV in our 1 year review. It includes purchasing foam fire extinguishers for the rig and placing them throughout. Thanks for the info.
Another great video! We had a C class for 5 years and have had our A class for 5.5 years and one thing we got early on not mentioned in your video is a propane Extend-a-Stay kit. We live close to Ottawa, ON, Canada and there are not as many places that fill onboard propane tanks so this was crucial. It allows you to use portable tanks instead of your onboard. It also allows you to connect small grills that use a 1lb tank so it can use your onboard (never used it that way though). I worked in Atlanta, GA for a year while living in rv and in the winter I just refilled the portable tanks. It would have sucked to have had to move the RV!!
Yes, that is something on our list!
Definitely!!!
I did an entire video on this. You can use it to connect the 20lb exchange tanks to fixed frame mounted that require you to drive the motorhome to refuel the propane.
I have come to find the Fire Disc Cooker fills all my cooking needs while camping to include grilling, sautéing, frying, etc. Built to Haul, Cooks it All.
Portable inflator saves a lot of headache when you need to adjust tire pressure. Milwaukee, DeWalt, and Craftsman have great portable inflators. I also keep a good bottle jack rated for more than what our travel trailer weighs (travel trailers do not come with a jack).
Great video. Even though I only heard it mentioned one time a back up camera system is a must no matter what size RV or camper you have. And I will also add a good set of maps because the GPS is going to be wrong a lot of times and of course you need to know how to read those maps. With our older generation that’s pretty common but the younger generation has no clue.
I agree with the map! We have Rand McNally trucker map as our backup
I got a set of cams and put one on the back and one on the passenger mirror. I can see better around a 34' RV than I can in my car.
I've been doing research to build a custom rig in a 32 foot enclosed cargo trailer. There's one thing that I didn't see on this video that I've heard is really a great addition, and that I intend on installing in my own rig. A diesel heater! It produces dry heat, so there's no need to remove excess humidity in your rig. If you're in a trailer you can use a removable tank designed for things like small boats and whatnot or mount a tank and fill port, and if you're in a drivable RV that runs on diesel you have the option of having the heater pull from your main tank. You can easily get more fuel without moving your rig using a basic gas can. As a nice cherry on top, heating with diesel is cheaper based on national average prices because diesel has more BTU's of energy per gallon than propane does, meaning less fuel is needed to produce the same amount of heat.
I likd all the different RVer's input om what they liked best. Good job.
A great compilation of full timing folks and their recommendations. As usual, a great job! Semper Fi!
Y’all are ABSOLUTELY adorable!!! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and for blessing us!!! 😇🙏
I agree that a surge protector is one of the most important. Before I ever went camping I bought one. I am looking at a TPMS because I suck at checking tire pressure. One of these would give me peace of mind. Great video!
Thanks Pidasian Hippie. We had our EMS surge guard long before we even had our RV. The TPMS is a game changer.
A little step stool for me, a vertically-challenged person !
Same here and I have one too.
My way of solving that problem is making my tall friends get what I need when I can't reach something.
A BROOM!!! Even if you have an onboard vacuum set up. A broom is faster and easier for 90% of the time. :) My BONUS $$ must get is MAGNE SHADE!!! OMG! Incredible how much heat it keeps out of your RV!! Makes no AC tolerable and when you do use it, it works so much less! Not cheap, but you'll be glad you did it!
A Swing-a-way brand manual can opener. Accept no substitutes!
Some Home Depot's have a bay for mobile home's & RV's. Usually on the heat and air aisle adjacent to plumbing aisle. Most of the TH-cam top ten items for new campers are here cheaper than Amazon.
Good to know! Thanks
I just subscribed to your channel. Love it. I’ve never been RVing but have always wanted to. This video should win an award.
Thanks and welcome
i bought moving blankets at harbor freight to cover the jackknife seat / bed for the dog to lay on not expensive but works
6:27 is hands down the best part of this video. Laura is so matter of fact and Terry plays so well off of it with his wittiness. “Hospital on wheels” 🤣 Definitely going to subscribe to them!
They are super sweet and witty but they dont have social media.
You, Me & the RV ...ugh, that’s why I can’t find them 😒. They are very entertaining, I hope they consider it some day. I would definitely subscribe.
They are hilarious!!! You really have no idea. We are always laughing together.
Great tip about putting the date on your water filter. I date other things when I open them but I had not thought about the water filter. See, even and old dog like me can learn a new trick or two! Good suggestions from everyone.
I can happen!!

We have a Mr. Buddy heater that I had to use during a season of life rebuilding in an incredibly drafty apartment. They are rated for indoor use. I always knew that I kept it for a reason!!😊 future FT rv life!!
Excellent! Now it will have a new life.
I'd say our hotspot and wifi service is our #1 must have gadget. Happy wife, happy life. Or should I say, no TV, no wife. We couldn't agree more on the Mimo antenna. We have the same one. It will only work if your hotspot has antenna ports though. We have the FCMAs AT&T $60/mo. unlimited plan, but the little hotspot that they provided free with the plan didn't have antenna ports, so we purchased a reconditioned Netgear Nighthawk MR1100 hotspot that has antenna them. It works great in 95% of the places we go - and we go to some remote places, deep in the mountains.
We have a couple of the regular size Mr. Heater Buddy heaters (one for back-up - BTW always carry back-ups of your critical components) that we might use a couple times a year, as we try to avoid snow at all costs. It is plumbed into our motorhome's propane system, and we have an Extend-a-Stay kit (highly recommended) that allows us to use the 20lb portable tanks in addition to the big tank on our MH. We never use our furnace anymore now that we have our heat pump and big solar/battery system, only using our Buddy heater if it gets below freezing.
This is the big one, as we boondock almost exclusively. We full time in our motorhome but haven't plugged into a power pedestal in over a year and a half. We have 4,400 watts of solar on our roof and another 620-watt liftable solar array on the side of our motorhome, that makes a nice bedroom window awning. We have both a 560ah 12v battery and a 320ah 48v battery for a total of 23.5kwh of LiFePo-4 battery power onboard (the equivalent of 18, 100ah Battleborns) that we built ourselves from prismatic cells for a tiny fraction of the price. We are able to run everything in our RV, including both A/Cs while charging our batteries at the same time. We can run our 12k EG-4 mini split 24/7 if needed in both cooling and heating mode, sparing our propane use. This has allowed us to replace our old propane fridge with a residential one, doubling the capacity and saving us about a pound of propane a day.
Though we love using Reflectix in our coach's windshield, we don't recommend using inside of dual pane windows as the heat builds up between the glass layers which can cause the inner seal to come lose. We had to have 5 windows repaired on our coach, as the previous owner didn't know this. In single pane windows it works great but must go outside dual pane windows. Nevertheless, it's great stuff that we wouldn't be without.
One tip on the inline water filter. We use a Clear 2o prefilter, and the blue Camco filters to fill our tanks, as it makes the blue filter last longer and is cleanable, so it lasts a long time too. We learned to always attach your water pressure regulator to the spigot, with the filter after the regulator. We made the mistake of putting the filter before the pressure regulator once and the water pressure was 90psi at the spigot, which caused our Clear 2o prefilter to explode. Never again.
Surge protector, water pressure regulator, weather station, TPMS, a quality GPS.
Safe travels and good health.
Perfect list!
Great collaboration video. Even though we have a surge protector as part of the Automated Transfer Switch (ATS) in our class A, we still use a Surge protector at the power pedestal. We have it for two reasons. The first is it provides a couple of additional features beyond the built-in surge protector. The second is if there is a catastrophic power incident, we would rather have the surge protector burning at the pedestal instead of inside our power bay.
We do the same thing! I would rather fry the portable than the built in!
I have the snap pads also and I love them. But here is a very important note if you’re in places like Quartzsite where the ground is very uneven because of the rocks it is important to put a block of wood if some type under there because the snap pads will snap off.
LOVE the Bloopers!! Hahaha. And real good info and ideas for real world gadget needs!! Thanks for what you do!!
Thanks! The bloopers are the easy part!
For a weather station I use my wet finger. But I do have a super long range WiFi directional antenna with 36Db gain on a six foot fold-down mast connected to a high-gain repeater which allows upto 12kms line-of-sight connectivity to free WiFi or any local paid-service. This is priceless. Water filter, backup camera and RCD are an absolute must. Tyre pressure is monitored using screw-on tyre pressure caps. Cheap. When they go 'yellow' it's time to fill. We use a Solar Oven for slow cooking and a charcoal/wood BBQ for 'fun' cooking. Butane for quick meals. No high voltage AC anywhere except the dedicated charger for the batteries. No need for VAC, as everything can be run off 12VDC. The Van is insulated for the heat. One thing they all left out. You have to have a decent tool kit or very deep pockets. Great vid. Thanks for posting. BTW. I like Dianna, the Dutch girl. Might just check out their channel.
love the collaboration and must have from different people
High quality First Aid kit even if you don't know how to use some of the items likely someone else will.
A stack of money
Really great mix of useful things. Would be helpful if there was an added consolidated list of those things spoken of throughout the video.
I hadn't thought of a weather station and I hadn't heard of a rhino blaster Great info. Great video! ~ Lucy
Thank you Lucy! So glad you popped over.
When we had a 30-foot bumper pull, I eventually installed an electric tongue jack that I would never go without again.
I bet it made a huge difference!
I'd say the pressure cooker, and the best we have is a ice maker !
TST Tire Pressure Monitors, had it for years now, great support and works flawlessly...WeBoost (because we work)
Excellent choices....and so important!
Lawn chairs, bug spray, sun lotion, first aid kit, flashlights batteries.
All great items to have!
Very good video you guy's we're right along with you on most of those Items. Love how you include and promote the other channels. We will definitely check them out. We're having a lot of fun here on TH-cam and hope to see you folk's on the road and say hi. We will be going full time very shortly here as we can't take living in California any longer. I was born and raised in Orange County but I've hit my limit. God bless and safe travels to you both.
Enjoy your new full time adventure.
My wife and i have a freezer, it is small but gives us a way to buy more meat and frozen food. Fits in our 5th wheel, but when we are parked awhile, I put it out by my front hitch. Just saves trips to stores. Happy camping
Comfy chairs!! Must have! LOL! We have some rocker chairs that we love for sitting around the campfire! We also recommend a good TPMS system.
I agree completely!
An alternative to the Govee Digital Thermometer is a wireless cam that you can watch the pet. In our case a larger Goldendoodle. Placed in proximity of an indoor temperature and humidity sensor would also give peace of mind. You wouldn't have your warning notifications but in our case would be checking occasionally anyways. Just a thought. Thank you for your service. Retired Air Force here with two Navy sons. Go figure.
Thats cool. I didnt think of that.
Our "Road Warrior" is currently a driveway paper weight while we wait for the kids to move out. I love watching others who have made the change to full time RV'ing...We'll see you out there soon...."Kids, Mom and Dad just sold the house.....Time to hit the road, and you are not invited."
Hahahaha! We told our son when he left for boot camp..."Dont screw this up because there is no home to come back to!" Hahaha
Thank you!! We're excited for our full-time RV life, and we feel like we're getting such a head start from all these channels. This was a great list you compiled. Thanks again!!
You are so welcome! Thank you for hanging out with us!
I want to know more about the charging system Matt and Diana of Adventurous Way use.
Reach out to them and ask away.
TPMS! Had blowout on tow (Jeep) and without TPMS we would have dragged the Jeep on the rim down the Interstate. Could not feel the blowout and had no difference in driving in coach.
That is so scary! We agree that it is so important.
What is TPMS ?
@@ramonzeender1043 Tire pressure monitor system.
Ramon.....it is a Tire Pressure Monitoring System......gives you real time air pressure and temps for your tires while traveling. We love ours and don't drive without it!
@@todayissomeday It also measures the tire pressure of a vehicle you are towing? My car requires a flatbed, so I'd have to put it on a trailer to tow it. So I'd have to measure Tire Pressure of the trailer tires
Ok from all the videos that I’ve watch to learn about RVing , this is by far hands down the most informative.. thank you thank you thank you. Oh yeah thank you! 🙏
You are so welcome! Thanks for checking it out.
This should be a video on the mannerisms of couples. Informative. Thanks!
Yes your BLOOPERS are the best! LOL 😂
Glad you like them!
this was a great recap of all those goodies that we all really want in our RVs. It would be great if you had a link listing all of these goodies in one download. Otherwise I'm going to grab a pencil and paper and write them all down. Just a thought, but if you could do that that would be great. Keep on truckin!!!!
I will look into figuring out how I can create such a document.
Zero G drinking water hose is an item we started out not having. Ran into someone that did, got their take on it. They told me that have been using theirs for over a year with no problems. They said there was a break in period of about a week to ten days. During the break in period the water taste like a garden hose. We experienced that same thing for about 8 days. I bought the 50’ length, I have seldom run into needing more than a 25’ hose, but this thing is so easy to roll up and store. Definitely one of our best things to have. #BHGT18
Awesome! Thanks. We will check this out.
I am with you Phil....Snap Pads!! The best thing ever.
Helpful and great information! Thank you for sharing
Glad it was helpful!
Farberware air fryer toaster oven! Multipurpose and works great.
Lots of misinformation about the Buddy heaters out there. These are *catalytic* heaters, not the open flame ones from days of yore. I have been using one in small spaces for decades. They are safe for CO unless you are in a hermetically sealed space, which no RV is. You need to crack a vent to prevent moisture build up as the catalytic process they use creates water vapor.
Thank you so much for this!!
No RV is hermetically sealed :)
Be sure your RV has a working Carbon Monoxide detector and a Propane Detector. Early models only had a Propane Detector. From our old retire fire investigator Paul Chase.
Im starting the RV life again at 66 yrs old ! Thank you for your candid approach. You guys are great ! I'm going with a 21-24' possibly Rpod. I will be hooked up for a little while to household current . Do I need the inverter as suggested in your gears list on Amazon ? I love how easy it is to make my list ! Thank You !
That is awesome Frances. It all depends on how your rig will be set up. Keep in mind you will need a way to charge whatever battery system you have. Check with the manufacturer to see how it is set up and what is needed for how you will be traveling.
It's amazing how many people ask if they really need a surge protector!!
It's the same with a water pressure regulator. Without both, your talking about THOUSANDS of dollars to replace the electric and/or water lines.
You need a power management system. A surge protector doesn't do much. All the problems we've had with power were not caught by the surge protector. I finally got an EMS and I don't worry any more.
@@thesoftwareengineerguy what is an EMS?
Thanks
It is like a surge protector, but it is constantly testing for bad power. Low voltage, etc. I had a low voltage situation blow my power cord and it was plugged in through a regular surge protector.
Personally i couldn't live without my wall mounted bottle opener that catches the caps....just saying, gotta have priorities.:)
I like the way you think!
Can u pls share a pic or a link of a brand u like
@@nanyalitz2755 MAGCAP Wall Mounted Bar-Style Magnetic Bottle Opener that Catches Caps - Stylish, Easy to Install and Incredibly Convenient on amazon 9.99
I absolutely loved that blooper reel and the video as a whole. You can't find enough info on rv travel. You and changing lanes are my favorites by far but many many others that are worth listening to. Keep it up.
Thanks so much! You are so kind. Of course we love Chad and Tara! They are the best.
I will recommend you connect the water filter at the inlet rather than at the hose bib. The hose can get mold inside while in storage . Once a month I use a bleach/water mix and pour into hose to sanitize it same as you should do with fresh water tank.
Excellent advice, thank you
Great info!! Adding stuff to my Amazon RV Wish List right now. :)
Sweet!
A battery 1\2 inch impact for changing tires quickly and get off the side the road
I would assume a jack big enough for your RV as well!??
Be careful, some of those electric impact wrenches over-torque the lug nuts. You're better off with a torque multiplier, and an actual torque wrench to gradually tighten them to your tires proper specifications, otherwise you risk stripping the threads, distorting brake rotors, & damaging the wheel, even possibly shearing off the lug stud.
Really depends on the size of your rig. In dealing with lugnuts daily working on cars most people over torque them anyway. Most cars are 80 to 100 lbs and pickup trucks can get up to 165 but when you get to medium duty and larger the stud size increases and so does torque. Not sure about you if I can get off the side of the road faster is safer
And semi lugnuts are torqued to 500 ft lbs so getting that set up would be a pain and I'm guessing you've never been stuck on the road with people flying by you at freeway speeds inches from your car. I drove tow truck and it's not easy
@@jimc5624 - I suppose a trailer is harder to get into a curb than a class c. And I use traffic cones and led warning triangles for safety purposes, something you should consider. Also, no need for the condescending tone. The RV community is about helping one another.
Great video and excellent information!!!! It's always good to be able to benefit from the experience of others, especially when they are as knowledgeable and trustworthy as you guys. Thanks so much and safe travels!
Thanks! I love hearing everyones viewpoint!
You guys are great to great videos always kidding around pleasure to watch
Thanks so much
Great video. I would divide the items mentioned into “must haves” for any RVer, and things that will make your life easier. I’m only a weekend warrior at this point. Must haves for me are the EMS, tpms, water pressure regulator, and the snap pads. Bought all but the snap pads before we took our first trip! LOL. When we get to the point of being able to travel more, I can see where my must haves will include better internet and cooking conveniences. Love your channel. Happy travels!
I agree. Make a list and purchase your must haves before hitting the road and then you can acquire the other items.
Great video! Thank you so much for taking the time to put this video together! Wednesday will be our first outing in our RV
Awesome! Have a great time.
Good video there was a couple of gadgets I didn’t think about keep them coming
Sweet! Thanks for joining us today!
We are not full timers - just vacationers. We love our cameras, behind the rig, and on both sides. We have a 37’ 5th wheel. It really helps in the backing up and changing lanes.
Everything here... that everyone is saying is GREAT...
but most of the things that they're talking about...
I have no idea what it is... A Picture of what you're
talking about would help a lot...

Great comment #You, Me & the RV
, I don't do a lot of TH-cam, but people say "see below" referring to things on the video. I never see anything but, comments, share, like save. Obviously I am missing something ???? BTW great video, I have a number of things but that list just got loner
Janet Sonier click on the name of the video and it will show the links they talk about
I really enjoyed the different perspectives. Great video.
we are just starting to get things for our RV and the most important I think is the surge protector, I have one on order and it should be here any day.
We agree completely. We had that and the TPMS before the RV.
great video, love the bloopers keep 'em comin
Water pressure regulator. No matter the rig, no matter the lifestyle. You're gonna need it. Then rear view camera, especially if you have a travel trailer.
Surge protector.
All great items! We use them all!!
Insta pot is a game changer.:)
GENIUS!🏅Nothing is better then experience! I've had enough of pro videos instead give me real people living real lives! Subscribed and inspired thank you!
Thanks Bar K.
Y’all should look into gettin an adapter to fill smaller tanks from your big RV tank. You might not use it all the time but it’s good to have in a pinch.
We have an 12ft hose that we run through a slide which is connected to our 20lb fire pit tank. It is much better than the small canisters.
I have posted a video on this. Lots of advantages!
We are in the planning stages of going full time, Researching rigs, etc now. We are current teardrop campers with experience off grid and have some of the items already. Thank You for all information.
Sweet! You guys have experience so you know exactly what you are getting into!
Go to the Grand Canyon!!!
Very nice video and the people that you have in it are so nice and funny and cute.
Lots of great ideas! We echo many of these! Thanks for the video!
Thank you for joining us!
It appears that you were squid at one time. Thank you for your service. I served from 1964 to 1968 as a corpsman mostly in the fleet Marine Force. I also see some pictures of skydiving. I attended the Army jump School in 1965. I thank you for your service and I thank you for the placement of this well-informed RV traveling messages. We are on our 10th RV and have enjoyed all of them. Most every year we travel approximately 20,000 miles doing at 3 months. In our RV. We usually make it up to see my great-great-grandfather on Prince Edward Island Canada from our home state of California. We go through my birth state of Vermont and then explore many parts of New England before we head up into Canada from Lubec Maine. We go over to Highlands of New Brunswick and on to Nova Scotia ending up on Prince Edward Island where we usually stay for 1 2 3 weeks. And one of my favorite things happens on the island in the dition to visiting my great-great grandfather's grave site is there exciting little drive-in theater. Very reminiscent of growing up in Vermont with our drive-in theaters. Well I've gone on long enough enjoy your adventures thanks for posting
Thanks for your service as well! Our Son is an active duty corpsman as well. We enjoyed our trip up to the North East area......but didn't stay as long as we would have liked. SO we will be back.
@@todayissomeday when you visit our area in Redding California, we have many interesting places to stay. One is our Elks Club and several other private campgrounds. We have space that is concrete and level if you need it. If all goes well we will start our three months adventure in July, 2020. We know from our past travels that June, July and August can be a true adventure with so many others on the highway. Many things will be contingent upon the virus and how we open our country. The virus may have much more control over our travels this summer.
Our son is a executive with one of the country's largest pharmaceutical companies. He has been extremely reliable in his predictions. He predicts, in just a few weeks, we will see this virus diminished considerably. He went to UC San Diego. You may be familiar with it as a sailor.
And by the way I'm very excited for your son being a Corpsman. He may get the same experience I had and spend some time as a Fleet Marine Force Corpsman. Good luck to him and your entire family. Dr. Terry J Mac Donald, Civil Engineering.
Just in the middle of our research on rv'ing. This was a great help. Looking forward to more helpful posts.
Glad we could help.
Lots of good information it’s clear there’s certain items that are repeated
Thanks for popping over to hang out with us!
Wow!!! This is an impressive post. So many points of view. Thanks guys!!!
You bet!! I think it is good to have different perspectives.
Great informational video!! I’m not a full timer but I think a great set of 6 volt deep cycle batteries to go along with solar panels. Also the Big Buddy and I’m just now incorporating the InstaPot. It’s nice to see what everyone else is doing for a “must have”!! Thank you for your video 👍🏼👍🏼
Solar panels are on our get list.
