Led lighting throughout. Its equipped with an outdoor kitchen ( although we will probably use our camp chef 3 burner stove more). I've already thought about the fire extinguishers, carpet , leveling blocks and chocks. Thinking about a 3500w Honda or Briggs jenny for the A/C / microwave ( doubt we will use the microwave) . Maybe a portable solar panel to keep the batteries charged?How should I keep the batteries charged when not in use ? Trickle charger / solar charger ?Not sure which load distribution hitch the dealer is "throwing" in . Tow vehicle is a 12 F350 long bed crew cab dieselI was going to say electric jacks and Camp Chef 3 burner. Get the two burner griddle if you don't already have it. Get dealer to put in two big six volt batteries and credit you for the 12 V battery. Griddle is already covered. . Been reading and it seams alot of people use the 2 6 v golf batteries instead of the 12v ( I made the dealer throw in a second 12v) . Why , what gains are made by going from duel 12v's to duel 6v's ? Or are you talking about going from a single 12v to. 2 6v's.

On the 19th, our brand new camper will be in the shop for a month getting warranty work done. Never would have guessed I would have found so much wrong with a brand new rig. I feel like a got a brand new piece of crap. I had them install a battery disconnect for when the camper is not in use.
Some great advice here for sure. Don't forget the big box of rubber/surgical gloves for dumping the grey/black tanks. Make sure you have all the hoses, elbows, and whatever else you can think of to dump at the different dump sites. I'm thinking about getting this generator, 95lbs, wireless remote, 58dba, and it will run the AC. https://www.amazon.com/Champion-Power-Equipment-75537i-Generator/dp/B00JZQUSAC/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1465839274&sr=8-6&keywords=generator+inverter
Don't take the dealers word on your hitch height. Make sure you take it to a flat area and level it out and measure it all yourself and adjust it if needed.Sent from my SM-G900V using Tapatalk
