Swapped out the slow Emerson thermostat for a Honeywell model TH1100DV1000.
Swapped out the 12V car charger port by the sink for another dual USB outlet.
Swapped out the main plush white carpet (arrggg!) for a low-profile indoor/outdoor polypropylene carpet.
Upgraded to a heavier shower curtain, and trimmed the left side bottom up so when it all gets shoved behind the toilet, the bottom portion doesn't bunch up as much.
Went all out on a first wash, orbital-clean/deoxidize/grind and wax job. Plan to do minor touchups for the next 2 years, then go all out again.
Will be swapping out the remain plushing carpet on the step-up and under the dinette.
Will be installing an internal Progressive Dynamics electrical management system (EMS).
Will be doing the basement tray lip ramp like burningman.
Will be replacing the o-rings/seals on all the exterior cam locks, as the factory ones are falling apart.
Will be upgrading to Lithium Iron batteries. Will require upgrading the solar charger and the power/circuit pack within the AC/DC console.
Maybe replace the "751" keyed cam locks with something more secure.
