What's the one thing that you have but hardly EVER use?

Rake... First thing my wife bought when we got our first TT was a rake that we can store in the storage area. On our third RV (first 5er) and have yet to use it.

"Mountain Pie" maker..

Yeah, DW insisted we had to have one, bought it, used it once in 15 yrs of camping and it made the absolute worst mess one could imagine and the "pies" were inedible burnt to a crisp on the edges and soggy in the middle..

Kind of reminds me, I think it is under the kitchen sink, might have to dispatch that piece of junk in the garbage when the DW isn't looking .. Offset her book collecting (similar to the "rock" collecting in the movie The Long Long Trailer..

LOL I bought some of these, and we have yet to use them. I think I bought them 3 years ago.

As for us, we've never once turned on the TV in the bedroom area. I've also never used the oven but that's usually because I cook outside.

We also use the loft bed above the slider to the garage area to store a bunch of extra bedding that we haven't touched since we put it up there. But I figure if we ever need it, like if the heat goes out, we'll be glad it's up there.

where to start , sat dish, carts for the Hondas, big recliners , enough chairs for the extended family as well as sleeping bags ,tents and outdoor games like horseshoes, ladder toss, corn hole, bocci , downsizing really opened our eyes lol

The bumper sewer hose storage, outdoor shower and spare tire. Oddly, all at the back of our camper.

O, and maybe the spouse... Easier to just do stuff myself (like dumping the tanks, setting up the sat dish, that sort of thing). Nothing replacement with something more modern wouldn't fix, lol! Next time I'm in a CW store, I'll look around and what's new and improved. :)

Oops, that's 4 things. :(

50 amp Male > 30 amp Female Dogbone.

Lol... I had to borrow one of those on my last trip because the 30amp plug wasn't working.. I will probably get one "just in case "

I bought one based on advice here. Have yet to run into a severely abused 30 amp jack.
I used mine when the pedestal would not allow me to plug in both my 30 amp and 20 amp cords. I use the 20 amp for outdoors electric. Now have a seperate 20 amp input supplying a seperate interior receptical to spread the power usage. Coffee maker or toaster plus microwave plus air conditioning can equal tripped breaker.

TV, microwave. We don't use the hot water heater much. Just heat water on the stove. Most showers are in a campground or RV park.

DVD player, not even sure it works. We do use the TV though, news, weather,and such before bedtime.
We actually use the oven, not always, but some homemade pizza on a rainy day is pretty sweet.
Also, for the most part, the 300-some piece crafstman tool kit, only used it once and it's a successful trip when it doesn't come out of the storage bin.

The Andersen Levelers.
We used to use them all the time, but then just reverted back to boards/blocks. Neat concept, but they’re not very stable for larger rigs unless you put boards underneath them...then what’s the point LOL. We also don’t use any level bubbles...just set a 2 foot level on the floor when setting up.
