All listed are my personal preferences. If you're heading south in the summer get another AC and have it tied into the duct and thermostat. On the Gen Prep you don't have to add the genny if you don't want to but having it ready to go is nice if you decide you need one. On the leveling system; On mine when I get the truck unhitched I'm halfway there as I level side-to-side first, unhitch and then front to back is easy. The leveling system does add stability for those who don't like a little shaking, doesn't bother us. Satellite?? I have a tripod and it doesn't take long to set up. I guess a lot depends on how much time you are going to spend in the camper. We go camping to get out and about not sit in the trailer and look at TV. I can do that at home.
Bottom line, if your pockets are real deep get everything otherwise pick and choose. You have a lot of good advice here...
