I just bought my 31 ft. 5th wheel (actually delivering it tomorrow.) I have been watching several channels for about the last 6 months and wow, it really helped me tremendously. Tomorrow I start preparation for this late fall. I'll spend the rest of the summer getting use to driving. Parking, driving through my city, taking country roads etc. This whole process has been a blast. I want to thank all of the channels AND comments from other viewers. I'm 78 and going it alone. -keith

Another small item. Male and female caps for water hoses. Sometimes you need to disconnect a hose and you don't want to coil it up into itself. These hoses carry your drinking water so keeping them sanitary is critical. I'm a licensed water distribution manager. Having male and female caps on hand prevents dirt, insects, pesticides, bacteria, feces, etc. from entering your water system and ultimately, your body.

An item that I've found very useful for working in low light situations outside is a headband light. It keeps both hands free for working.

The collapsible bucket is a winner - on my list. I’ve kept a folding shovel (army surplus) and used it multiple times for putting out camp fire, shoveling some light snow, etc. Cheap, takes up little space.

We have most of what you suggested and use them all the time. One other thing that seems a bit silly (but for me are indispensable) are sturdy but comfortable knee pads. They are knee savers for the "low level" projects like airing up the tires. I got mine at Lowe's for $18, hard rubber on the outside and about 2" of soft foam on the inside.

The small stool would be useful to put in a backpack, when doing some exploring, I think. If one gets a bit tired, you have a convenient seat while you regain your breath. Thanks for sharing, Jared.

The little stools work good as foot rests in front of your camp chair too.

A three way hose splitter. We hook it up to the camp site spout. Use one outlet to hook up the RV water, another to set up a spray hose, and the third for just filling a pot of water to boil on the camp stove. Pray hose is good to spray down feet, messy dishes, dusty roads at camp sites…

I use that chair when I go biking. It fits right in my basket and I always have a place to sit!

A must have is also a collapsible trash bucket with zipper lid. Lasts us a long weekend and keeps trash contained and covered. Also not small but our favorite new item is a Gazelle screen house. It’s a little large but requires zero assembly and sets up in literally minutes. Happy camping!

Use the collapsible bucket with a rope to lift things up to the roof when working up there.

We have found little hooks that can be put up with command strips. These can be put in places where you want to hang a hat or a dog lead. You can put them on the back of the bathroom door for towels etc.

The grab bar that attaches to the screen door. Won’t be without one.

Well no wonder the collapsible bucket didn't work when you sat on it... You forgot to fill it with water first.

Great video. I wear a pair of jersey gloves when packing up. I can wipe items down prior to storing them. I wear them doing light chores. If my hands stay clean, so do my clothes.

We have the same chairs, and absolutely love them. A little handy tool i bought was a Camco sewer cap tool/wrench. Fits any cap and was only a few bucks.

I also like the collapsible trash can. We can put a liner in it for trash, dry only, or we can just put stuff in it to keep the wind from blowing things .

I carry a 20# to 1# adapter so I can fill 1# propane bottles from my 20# bottle. As much as I don't like 1# bottles, I still need them for my propane lantern and two-burner stove and grill if I'm cooking outside.

Thanks for key tip about sitting on collapsible bucket 😂🪣

I have two of those chairs and I love them so much!!!! Easy to store in my popup camper.
