Water pressure: I use a water pressure limiter and in most campgrounds the water pressure is lower than what I get with the pump. Should I just fill my fresh water tank and use the pump or risk not using the limiter? I also use an inline water filter. Get a Watts regulator unit. They pass through much more volume and so it gives much better pressure. Sound goofy but with those cheapy units, it is NOT a pressure problem...but a VOLUME problem. A good pressure regulator sends more water through. You won't have a pressure problem.
Objects moving in fridge, pantry and medicine cabinet. We just got bars for the fridge. We are trying to put things tight together in the pantry. The medicine cabinet seems hopeless. Why build a trailer with a 1/2" lip on the cabinet shelves? We stuff crumpled plastic grocery bags in the spaces. They are light and hold everything in place. Cheap (free) too.
Campgrounds dryers. They are slow, do not try well enough in a single cycle and last time our clothing got stains on it after the wash while in the dryer! Consider this.
Firewood. Campground firewood is expensive. We are not allowed to travel with firewood and it's not always easy to find some cheaper on the side of the road. Use Dura flame logs. Buy them on sale. Two logs will last a couple hours, and give a nice flame. If you want you can throw a couple of firewood sticks on. But don't need to use much of those. If you don't like that idea, consider one of those portable campfires that use propane. No wood involved.
