Recommended tools for a newbie

I do like having lots of tools. I used to cram just about everything I owned into my MOHO, but gradually it occurred to me that 90% of those I never touched.
At 82 I don't know if I want to be working on it anyway. I still take too many and I'll just buy what else I need when needed.
To a great extent, it depends on you and what you buy. Some people are always working on something even if it doesn't need any work, and some won't touch a thing. In time you'll figure it out.
Oh, BTW, a 20 ft set of jumper cables can save you a lot of grief.

OOPS! double post

An inexpensive multimeter with instructions. Learn how to use it!
Electrical adapters. if rig is 50 amp, get a fifty to thirty adapter.
Bucket and brush to wash windshield. Bucket can be used to put out campfire.
Make a list of appliances with make, model and serial numbers. When does appliances fail? in the dark, raining and cold!
Manuals for appliances.

Wow,
Red Rolling's list is about as good as you can get - but he should have prefaced the list with "if you are comfortable with" and then noted that the exception is the voltmeter. You want to have that even if you don't know which end to hold... If you need help in that area you may be able to engage a native guide.

The only things I would actually add to his list would be wraps of combination wrenches (SAE and MM) because you can't always get a socket on what needs to be tightened and a largish adjustable wrench just in case...

Other than that, if you are really going to go traveling, try to get all the service documentation for everything that the coach is made of. There have been times that I have helped others that were in minor trouble and he could not find anybody that knew enough to figure out the problem. One of said had a library of documentation, and we were able to diagnose the problem and order parts.

To add to what RedRollingRoadblock said. I carry a square drive screw set, adapters to drive sockets with my 1/2" battery powered drill motor. Torque wrench & a baster to add ATF to the ZF emergency brake. (mine leaks a little).

OH! and the wife to nag a little..............

I carry two 25' water hoses and a 15' 50 amp extension cord. I only needed one or the other twice. 15' and 10' sewer hose, used the extension several times.

For tools: a digital volt meter, Wago wire connectors, misc wire. 3/8 and 1/4 drive scoket set. Screwdrivers, including a #2 square, pliers, hacksaw blade w/ holder, locking pliers, couple of flashlights. Duct tape, electrical tape, blue tape, wire ties, Loctite Blue. Spare water filter. Mouse traps. Older 12v battery drill and drill bits.

But wait there's more...But I'd have to inventory.
