Tips for reducing set-up time?

Both DH and I would like to reduce set-up time so we can travel further in a day. He isn't really happy with the amount of time but doesn't want to skip any steps either. As some of you have mentioned, OCD or perfectionism or whatever you call it does enter in. Also, he is a former military aviator, so he has checklists for a lot of things! Granted, if we skip a step RVing probably no one is going to die, as they might in flying, but on the other hand, we spent more for our coach then we did for our house , so we won't want to screw anything up. We take it out 5-6 times fee year and the longer between times, the slower things go.

Don't tell me nobody out there has never left a water pressure regulator on a spigot or pulled out without stowing the microwave tray!

:B
Been THERE done that!

1. At least 4 pairs of Sears robo grips left on bumper and somewhere down the road.

2. One power surge cord.

3. And one temp replacement micro that needed to be taken down before take off......came flying off of shelf on first left hand turn and exploded.

4. Fridge door flew open and spewed and broke all glass bottles I left in the door before departure.

You could have a thread a million pages long if everyone fessed up to their mistakes. List or no list, 10 minutes worth of checklists or 2 hours! :W

It really is the pilot checklist mentality. THAT he will never get rid off. All my pilot friends have the same disease that drifts over into their normal life also.
