inventory and carry critical spare parts

Last trip left us with a broken slide out. On road repair was not an option. local shops (even my home dealer) did not have the motors used in a coachmen freelander. All this setup a return trip that was less than fun.

My solution, take spare parts along on net trip.

I made a list of things that might need repair or replacement and order extra.

(1) motors for slide out (you know it will happen again)
(2) belts for vehicle
(3) fluids
(4) new spare tire ( unit did not come with one
(5) fuses for coach and vehicle
(6) a better tool kit
(7) duct tape ( the ultimate fix)

Knowing this is common knowledge for the experienced RVers, but to newbies like me ... another learning opportunity.

Best Regards
