My list of wishes and (fulfilled)

(Outside area rug) - must have for dry camping
(gas grill)
(Theater seating)
(Comfortable captains chairs)- just installed
Exterior windshield cover - just ordered Magneshade have high hopes to reduce interior temps and allow to see outside. Have the interior shades but too far from windshield to block heat.
Would love new rims I don't have to polish..... Alcoa rims would be nice!

Wish List
(provided we do not get a bigger rig, not likely at present)

Make better more frequent use of unit. Only travelled 14,000 miles in 1st 2 years.

Add heavier sway bars.
Sumo front springs.
2nd A/C unit.
Window tint, wife and put cheap tint and it made huge difference.

These are wants, overall unit performs fine.

Isn't it fun to see how we all want to "tweak" things just a little bit?

Install permanent Power Monitor System (replace the steal me plug in)
Replace at least one Seki TV with a real one
Wire up speakers so I can send any source to any set of speakers

Now THAT'S a list!
Each item has a definite functional reason for being there!

Short list for ours so far;


1. Levelers or stabilizers if we can find something that fits a class c.
2. TPMS for coach and toad
3. Replace the POS Axxcera with at minimum a better monitor for the cameras.


oh yeah, should have been #1 ... hit the lottery! LOL!!!

Do you have a link to those Black & Decker coffee makers? I've got to find something to carry in our rig!
I also just got the Black and Decker stainless thermal carafe. Picked it up at Wall Mart and will be tested on the road later this week. Good luck
