Made the purchase, what's next?
Thanks everyone for the advice on the other thread. I pulled the trigger this morning on a Forest River Rockwood Windjammer 3001W at auction. It's a 2012 and real clean. I'll next join Good Sam, ca...

Congrats and welcome to the world of RV'ing.. Would recommend you take an inventory of any accessories that came with it and get the things you don't have through Amazon.. What's great about Amazon when you search for "camping trailer accessories" is that not only do you see the biggest assortment in the world at the best prices you will find, but you can read customer reviews on anything you like and make a decision on whether it is needed or if good quality. I used them exclusively to outfit my
TT in our first year this year and we had everything we needed and nothing we didn't need.
you will need 25 ft drinking hose ( white), water regulator valve to prevent pressure surges from running your plumbing, surge protector to protect your wiring, 30 ft 30A extension cord for when the pedestal is in the wrong place ( happens) quality sewer hose with clear adapter so you can see discharge, sewer hose holder to keep it off the ground and angled correctly , ground mat to keep dirt out, plastic tablecloth for picnic table,25 ft TV cable coil, Camco super wheel chocks, Lynx leveler blocks, wheel covers to protect tires when stored and Adco trailer cover for winter storage, cabinet shelf rods to keep stuff from shifting in kitchen cabinets and ones for fridge also. There are several more but not as critical.. Take a run through Amazon's site under that category and see what you need. Also highly recommend insect screens outside if you don't have them to protect your furnace exhaust pipe, fridge vent and water heater vent.. New TT's do not come with them but you can get on Amazon and they are very important to keep out rodents, mud wasps, stink bugs and other critters that will definitely go through those factory outlet vents. I would not have known this but read a lot of Amazon reviews of how important they are! Have fun outfitting your new TT and good luck and happy times with it!
