Finally Picking Up My New RV

Finally. It's time to pickup my new 2022 Rockwood Mini Lite 2205S travel trailer from Wana RV in Shipshewana, Indiana. On the way there I will be stopping at hotels in Little Rock, Arkansas, Effingham, Illinois and finally in Shipshewana. This San Jose, California boy isn't looking forward to the cold upper Midwest winter weather. 

On the way back, I'll stay at various RV parks and do some boondocking. Most campgrounds in Indiana, Illinois and Missouri will be closed for the winter. Maybe I can relax at DeGrays Lake in Arkansas. Dare to dream. 

Should be fun producing several installation videos. First up is Haloview. I'll be adding their side and observation cameras to the travel trailer mix. I'm super excited about installing my Aolithium batteries. First I have to figure out how to wire them inside the pass through storage. You have to keep them warm and safe. Lithium batteries don't like freezing temperatures.

Travel Trailer Must Have Accessories!



Today, I ordered a new travel trailer. A 2022 Rockwood Mini Lite 2205S. Here is my list of MUST HAVE accessories. Yes, I'll have most of these MUST HAVES in the back of my truck when I pick up my travel trailer. The RV black tanks aren't going to dump themselves. 

I plan to stay in Shipshewana, Indiana for a few days to confirm that all systems are working. Did I miss any MUST HAVE accessories? By the way. Shipshewana is in the middle of Amish Country. I've never been there. Should be fun for Annie and I.

So what do you think? I look forward to reading your comments and suggestions. I already have some odds and ends for my new travel trailer. They include some very nice solid rubber wheel chocks and storage bins. I hope you found my shopping list useful. 

I plan to buy these accessories a couple months before the RV delivery date. I'll be giving Amazon plenty of time to deliver my travel trailer supplies. At least, that's the plan!
