Upsizing from PUP to TT - What do we need?
The DH and I are getting ready to pull the trigger on a new TT. We've been pop-up camping for years, so already know what we'll need as far as dishes, cookware, paper products, etc. But what are th...

Thanks for all the good advice so far. Yes, we will be purchasing a WDH and brake controller with the camper. I have no idea what type of sewer and fresh water hoses come with the camper but I'll put that on the list of things to ask the dealer.

Are the between-the-wheel chocks a necessity or something we should wait and see if we need? It's a 19 ft camper with dual axles.
Oh yes, definitely a new awning mat also. Our old one is starting to curl up on the edges and is becoming a trip hazard.
Thank you for the link ependydad, it is helpful even for somewhat seasoned campers.
Terryallan, I don't doubt we'll miss some things about the pup but we're not planning to kick her to the curb just yet. I will miss lying in my bunk and listening to owls and whippoorwills at night. Plus the pup is like one big screen room so you can almost always find a breeze from one direction or another. We do have a large screen tent with rain flys on all 4 sides so will probably use more often when space permits. We don't really spend a lot of time indoors
Most of the campgrounds we stay at do not have bath houses, only vault toilets. But I imagine we'll still use those at least once a day, at least in the beginning. ;)
