Picking my RV up day before thanksgiving and I am wondering If I should change all the fluids? I planned on changing the oil but have heard mixed answers on changing the transmission fluid.. Some say ...

What ever you decide it's been my experience to NEVER allow the repair shop to FLUSH anything. "Just drain and replace fluids".
I've had them ruin a radiator, break ac line, etc.
The push to flush is just to add more money to your bill. And in any older vehicle it's an accident waiting to happen. And more bucks for them to repair. Just saying.
I would "highly" recommend that you change the front brake lines though.
The brake lines will look perfect on the outside but what happens is the inside degrades. Been there done that flying off an exit ramp MH towing and NO brakes. Common problem with the V-10 chassie. Repair shop knew exactly what the problem was. Brake line looked fine no leaks but the inside was completely shot. No fluid coming thru no brakes for me.:(
