Fixin to pull the trigger...moving from TT to 5th Wheel

All I have to do is say "deal" and we will have our first 5th wheel. We have been rving for 8 years and I have been thru the "gadget buying" phase. What I need to know is what do I really need for the 5th wheel? I have a 30amp plug installed on my house so here is what I am thinking:

- 50 to 30 amp plug
- Step covers
- 2 vent covers
- 5th wheel cover? (I already have tire covers)
- tv bracket & lcd tv for bedroom

Of course, I am going to ask the dealer to include all these (or some of them)

Yes, I have a 5th wheel hitch included and installed with the pruchase.

Thanks.

    a lesson on how to back them up. Yes they are relatively easy, but "oh so very much" different. If you start to twist it in when you would the TT, you will hit the building everytime. Wait a few feet, then twist her in.

    Muscle relaxant for that never ending smile you'll have while towing.

    GPS with optional truck routing program. My new Garmin nuvi 2757LM does not have that feature but I wanted a 7 inch screen. I'm hoping I don't need it. I had it on an older Garmin 7200 that is no longer made.
